Hello,
I find the following instructions strange in your function "e_msg".
http://bacula.git.sourceforge.net/git/gitweb.cgi?p=bacula/bacula;a=blob;f=bacula/src/lib/message.c;h=5791f6b51b95a43be565ad351630d7e48dd24029;hb=HEAD#l1078
if (type == M_ABORT) {
char *p = 0;
p[0] = 0; /* generate segmentation violation */
}
I would prefer to call the standard function "abort" explicitly.
The article "Fun with NULL pointers" by Jonathan Corbet has got a few more
informations to consider for this implementation detail.
http://lwn.net/Articles/342420/
How do you think about to make it clearer that null pointer dereferences can
only occur at other places of your source code?
Regards,
Markus
