That's not paranoid. That's just inefficient. The length argument has to be based on the target size, NOT the length of the source. If you want to length of the source, that's what plain old strcpy does by definition. I just found some of those in some other code I was cleaning up and wasn't pleased with them there. Just because it says strncpy doesn't mean what you are doing is any safer than strcpy if you do it wrong. -- Len Sorensen _______________________________________________ Grub-devel mailing list Grub-devel@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/grub-devel
