You mean over-terminate strings properly.
snprintf will always terminate strings correctly. It writes no more
then N characters "including the terminating null byte". (That last bit
from the C standard).
This means the following code is silly (double terminates):
char buf[BUFSIZ];
snprintf(buf, BUFSIZ - 1, ...);
as is
snprintf(buf, BUFSIZ, ...);
buf[BUFSIZ - 1] = 0;
The first makes your buffer too small, the second sets a nil over a
guaranteed nil.
Of course they are broken implementations... but that's another story.
char buf[10];
snprintf(buf,10,"Long String Longer then 10 bytes");
puts(buf);
Should print:
"Long Stri"

Do these marketing people even know what sourceforge is?
