Re: [PATCH] Improved error messages when temporary file creation fails

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

 



Updated version of the patch, taking into account the feedback from this 
thread. (the use of a fixed-length buffer to temporarily store the template
for the error path is now sort of moot since make_nonrelative_path doesn't 
allow filenames larger than PATH_MAX anyway)
