  when strlen(&pi->location_code[0]) == HVCS_CLC_LENGTH + 2
    then clclength will be reset to HVCS_CLC_LENGTH.

    when call strncpy, the clclength + 1 == HVCS_CLS_LENGTH + 1
      but the '\0' of src buf is located at HVCS_CLS_LENGTH + 2.
      so no '\0' copied to dest buf.

    then the dest buf will not be ended by '\0'.

  is it correct ?
