I was thinking today that it would be nice to be able to pre-parse *rintf style format strings into an intermediate array. This would have the potential to speed up code which uses *rintf by quite a bit.
The only drawbacks that I can think of, is that the parser function will need to take in a pool, in order to return the array, and that means functions like snprintf(), etc. (which will use the preparser) will need to use pools. I guess apr_snprintf, could just create its own temporary pool, and destroy it before it returns. Any thoughts on this? -- Jon
