[PATCH 1/3] maint: rename virBufferVSprintf to virBufferAsprintf

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



We already have virAsprintf, so picking a similar name helps for
seeing a similar purpose.  Furthermore, the prefix V before printf
generally implies va_arg, even though this variant was ..., and
therefore the old name got in the way of adding a new va_arg version.

global rename performed with:

$ git grep -l virBufferVSprintf \
  | xargs -L1 sed -i 's/virBufferVSprintf/virBufferAsprintf/g'
---

Completely mechanical.
