[PATCH] range-diff: heck for NULL over comparisons

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

 



From: Seija Kijin <doremylover123@xxxxxxxxx>

Although at first it may seem easier to
check for the same comparison that
determined whether a_util or b_util is NULL
or not, checking for null directly
would make more sense for developers
and static analysis tools, which false-flag
this area specifically as having potential NULL
pointers.
