[PATCH 1/2] virStrndup: Accept negative values as string length

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

 



It may shorten the code a bit as the following pattern:

  VIR_STRNDUP(dst, src, cond ? n : strlen(src))

is used on several places among our code. However, we can
move the strlen into virStrndup and thus write just:

  VIR_STRNDUP(dst, src, cond ? n : -1)
