Hi! Thanks for the report. This is, however, a bug in the example
program. strcasecmp expects a string to be null terminated. Since the
buffer is unterminated, strcasecmp runs off the end of the buffer. Try
using cmalloc(1, 4001) instead of malloc, or manually terminating the
buffer, or using strncasecmp("hello", data, 4000). (You should also
check the return value of fread()) I hope that helps!
