Dear Make maintainers, While debugging some superfluous rebuilds in a project I wanted to quickly hack in some printing of file_timestamps on out of date files. When doing that I found the usefull helperfunction file_timestamp_sprintf and since I knew that in the project I was working on that before -999 or after 9999 wouldn't be a real problem I just used the 19 that was mentioned in the comment. While that is perhaps not the best idea to do I later found out that this 19 was of by 10 since the nanoseconds were added. (Also my gut feeling to add 1 just in case the \0 end byte wasn't included was correct, but that might just be a matter of personal preference, and not a bug.)
Kind Regards, === snip: filedef.h:145 === /* Upper bound on length of string "YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS.NNNNNNNNN" representing a file timestamp. The upper bound is not necessarily 19, since the year might be less than -999 or greater than 9999. === snip === -- Rob _______________________________________________ Bug-make mailing list Bug-make@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-make
