I kept safe_strcpy() now implemented over strlcpy() and returns non-zero if the result is truncated. When writing into a char array this is less redundant than writing (strlcpy(d,s,sizeof(d) >= sizeof(d)) where 'd' is often some annoyingly long structural name. -- Keir _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.xensource.com/xen-devel |
