Can you remove the camel-case here please?


That's code I just moved around... Will do, sir.

Is the typedef really necessary ?

Why ask, if you already know the answer? :-)

I'm not a big fan either, seemed like the easiest approach at the time.
The idea was to keep the hastable (struct hsearch_data) as decoupled as possible from the environment (env_htab which is, in fact, the only instance of struct hsearch_data).

What if the function pointer was stored within the hastable itself?
Sort of a virtual method.
This way we get rid of the typedef and the function pointer as a parameter altogether. The callback parameter then just becomes a boolean value (meaning, do/don't call the callback function stored within the hashtable itself).
I like that much better. What do you think?

Make this 1<<  x please.

OK.

You mean check_var()?

I mean is_var_in_set_or_is_set_empty().
Sorry, I'm very, very bad at picking function names.
Any suggestion?

Do you need to do this if you eventually later figure out you have no apply()
callback and you did this for no reason?

You mean calling process_var()? It's two separate things.

One, filter out the variables that were not asked to be processed, if there were any (call to process_var()) Two, check whether the new value is acceptable and/or apply it (call apply())
You could have none, either, or both.

Or else, if you mean moving the e.key = name, e.data = value assignments, you're right, they should be moved down (but in that case it would be because the apply function fails, not because it's not present -- default case is always successful).
