The only difference is the nu ll terminating character at the end and the returning of the number of written characters if the buffer was terminated early, as seen here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/cpp/c-runtime-library/reference/snprintf-snprintf-snprintf-l-snwprintf-snwprintf-l?view=msvc-170 >> >> Reviews Required: 2 for HotSpot, jdk.hotspot.agent, and jdk.jdwp.agent, 1 >> for awt and jdk.accessibility, 1 for java.base, 1 for security, 1 for >> jdk.management(?) > > Julian Waters has updated the pull request with a new target base due to a > merge or a rebase.

Will wait a while before integrating so objections, if any, can be raised. If no objections are raised by tomorrow morning I'll proceed with integration ------------- PR Comment: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/20153#issuecomment-2310083308
