Just reading the man pages for every lib function you use should give
good practice advices when applicable.
On the other side, regarding the sound layer, OpenBSD is OSS compatible,
but I think you would be pleased reading sndio(7). Native OpenBSD sound
layer is unique, powerful and very developer-friendly.

Hi
I hesitate somewhat to post this, being aware of the recommendations to
look for answers in the extensive documentation of OpenBSD, but I just
don't
seem to find the information I need.
I have been using Linux for a number of
years and have written a few
applications for that platform, mainly for my Ham
Radio hobby (they
are available on my website below). I have recently
installed OpenBSD
on my second SSD and I would like to edit the source code to
make it
compatible with OpenBSD's coding standards (I have managed to
compile
a couple of my simplest apps and I already have warnings of
bad practices like
using strcpy and strcat... ;-)
Is there a guide for developers regarding
OpenBSD programming standards
and practices, including specific API functions
like strlcpy etc? Some of
the apps I have written use the ALSA sound API,
which I understand is not
available on OpenBSD (and I think on all *BSDs). Is
OpenBSD using the
standard OSS API?
My thanks in advance!
