Why? I don't think it is possible to implement it without any memory
allocations.
I mean without copying the strings.
Using strcoll doesn't make much sense (here and in MSVCRT_strcoll
implementation). If a broken/partial implementation is needed by an
application using strncmp should be ok.
Do you suggest implementing a stub, which just call linux strcoll()?
I think that we shouldn't use linux strcoll at all. It will not do what
is needed. The default locale (on startup) of all c applications is "C",
in this locale strcoll behaves exactly the same as strcmp.
If a partial implementation is needed by an application I would suggest
something like this:
int strncoll(char *str1, char *str2, int count)
{
/* FIXME: handle collates */
return strncmp(str1, str2, count);
}
Cheers,
