Actually portability wouldn't concern me that much, that could be tested automatically, what makes it not acceptable is the amount of inpredictability this would bring to the API.
Ah, yes, agreed.
Now, that's a very good point. This wasn't raised that many time but i can understand how it could be useful to some users, agreed !
The main problem is to realize what is going on :) The bug-report I received was like "We are running out of memory when debug messages are disabled!" (because when enabled, vsyslog triggered compacting the heap). So, to spread the word I just got the idea, that maybe a comment in the example sources would also be a good thing? Then again, those examples immediately end the process after freeing, so there is not much of a difference.
I am adding it to SVN, it should show up on the web site soon, thanks a lot for the suggestion and the wording,
I am glad that you think it is useful, All the best, Wolfram -- Dipl.-Ing. Wolfram Sang | http://www.pengutronix.de Pengutronix - Linux Solutions for Science and Industry
