[PATCHv2 1/2] util: Fix docs for virBitmapParse

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

 



This patch changes the name of the @sep argument to @terminator and
clarifies it's usage. This patch also explicitly documents that
whitespace can't be used as @terminator as it is skipped multiple times
in the implementation.
