Such spread out (and undocumented?) dependencies are not good. This could break because of some future change.

I think that all such sprintf(buf) + buf[len-1]=0 expressions at least should be kept on the same line so that you can grep for sprintf (which is a known problematic function) and then directly see that the code does the right thing. This would possibly bring the line length above 80 but verifiable correctness is more important than some arbitrary line length. > > Maxim. > > > _______________________________________________ > lng-odp mailing list > lng-odp@lists.linaro.org > http://lists.linaro.org/mailman/listinfo/lng-odp _______________________________________________ lng-odp mailing list lng-odp@lists.linaro.org http://lists.linaro.org/mailman/listinfo/lng-odp
