Greetings:

I fixed the comment line... to correct the "nul", "NULL", "NUL" issue and I disambiguated the readlink() issue. Thanks! John

Confusing NUL and NULL is also a pet peeve of mine :) David On 25/05/2013 2:15 AM, Martin Buchholz wrote:

Hi John,

The memory leak fix looks good. --- IIRC I was the author of the comment, so it is not surprising that I might prefer that version. "nul" is not a typo for NULL. It makes no sense to speak of character arrays being NULL-terminated. It also isn't quite right to say that readlink "generates" an array - it simply writes into one. However, it is more correct to spell "nul" "NUL" as in ASCII(7). If you wanted to be more precise about which readlink, you could write readlink(2) instead of readlink() to disambiguate from readlink(1)
