eXtend C Standard Library Overhaul
January 26th, 2012
No comments
The upcoming 1.6 and final branch of the 1.x versions will a change in the way functions generated new data within them. No more memory allocations and returning with the newly allocated memory.
For example:
char * substr(const char *str, unsigned int start, unsigned int length) {
int str_size = (int) strlen(str);
if (start >= str_size) return (char *)str;
if (start + length >= str_size) length = str_size - start;
static char *rstr;
if (rstr != NULL) free(rstr);
if (length > 0) {
rstr = (char *) malloc(length * sizeof(char));
int i, j;
for (i = start, j = 0; j < length; i++, j++) rstr[j] = str[i];
rstr[length] = '\0';
} else {
rstr = (char *) malloc(1 * sizeof(char));
strcpy(rstr, "");
}
return rstr;
}
int str_size = (int) strlen(str);
if (start >= str_size) return (char *)str;
if (start + length >= str_size) length = str_size - start;
static char *rstr;
if (rstr != NULL) free(rstr);
if (length > 0) {
rstr = (char *) malloc(length * sizeof(char));
int i, j;
for (i = start, j = 0; j < length; i++, j++) rstr[j] = str[i];
rstr[length] = '\0';
} else {
rstr = (char *) malloc(1 * sizeof(char));
strcpy(rstr, "");
}
return rstr;
}
Will be rewritten as:
char * substr(const char *str, unsigned int start, unsigned int length, char *buffer) {
int str_size = (int) strlen(str);
if (start >= str_size) return (char *)str;
if (start + length >= str_size) length = str_size - start;
if (length > 0) {
int i, j;
for (i = start, j = 0; j < length; i++, j++) buffer[j] = str[i];
buffer[length] = '\0';
} else {
strcpy(buffer, "");
}
return buffer;
}
int str_size = (int) strlen(str);
if (start >= str_size) return (char *)str;
if (start + length >= str_size) length = str_size - start;
if (length > 0) {
int i, j;
for (i = start, j = 0; j < length; i++, j++) buffer[j] = str[i];
buffer[length] = '\0';
} else {
strcpy(buffer, "");
}
return buffer;
}
And its usage, in short:

Stop SOPA/PIPA

Everyone, help stop SOPA/PIPA. Help stop Congress from, again, helping and interfering with failed business models (i.e. bailouts) and most importantly stop Congress from essentially censoring the internet!

Maris Laboratories Project Wiki
January 13th, 2012
No comments
I forgot to tell you all that I’ve finally installed and started setting up the Maris Labs wiki. I really needed this for documenting code *cough* *cough* eXtended Standard Library.
Mind that this wiki is under construction at this point. I’m working hard to get it “finished”. Please check out the eXtended Standard Library‘s project page, as I am frequently updating the documentation, starting with the non-self explanatory functions first.
Other projects (listed on my Projects page) will have wiki pages set up as soon as possible.
Cheers!
