and do these people bitch about libc too? checking the programmers bad and non-sensical input is a nicety we do in some places. it is a NICETY! not a requirement. libc sees it as a luxury and almost never does it. my bet is they don't complain about libc. they simply want to pass blame away from their own mistake and thus will say "well efl sucks". if we do any checking it should be consistent throughout a library. e_dbus doesn't check most input as it's a thin wrapper. any checks should use standard/common infrastructure where appropriate so it can be a macro and compiled out for speed reasons or change behavior (eg call abort() on every incorrect input to guarantee you get a crash and a backtrace to fix it). a simple 'if (!string) return NULL;' is more likely to hide nasty bugs and make them much harder to find. there is no complaint to stout/err. there is no way to force a backtrace (abort) etc. -- ------------- Codito, ergo sum - "I code, therefore I am" -------------- The Rasterman (Carsten Haitzler) ras...@rasterman.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
