Maybe this time my mail was a bit too short? :) especially, I ask for asprintf in util/misc.c so just GRUB_UTIL. But Marco and I thought it would be good to make a general discussion about GNU extentions. GCC is needed anyway because of the nested function but what about glibc or other stuff? > It should be possible to use existing functions. I see asprintf just a > wrapper to malloc/sprintf for which there are already versions present > on grub. [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/grub/grub2.svn$ grep -r asprintf * util/grub-probe.c: asprintf (&grub_path, "(%s)%s", drive_name, path); I just discovered that asprintf is indeed already used in the source :) But yeah maybe there's even in the kernel a use for asprintf, so maybe a good idea to make a grub_asprintf? This could be then either always used even if the util/*.c use the library functions normally or it could be done as with my grub_print_error change :) _______________________________________________ Grub-devel mailing list Grub-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/grub-devel
