Right, the approaches would rather be: 1) use alloca() on the systems that have it and 2) use the 256 fixed maximum on those without alloca() Is there C99 systems without alloca() (windows?) ? If so it would probably make sense with option... 3) use the current approach for C99 compilers without alloca() ... Or is it over-complicated with little gain? ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
