dnl Test for a working C99 snprintf. dnl dnl Check for a working snprintf. Some systems have an snprintf that doesn't dnl nul-terminate if the buffer isn't large enough. Others return -1 if the dnl string doesn't fit into the buffer instead of returning the number of dnl characters that would have been formatted. Still others don't support dnl NULL as the buffer argument (just to get a count of the formatted length). dnl dnl Provides RRA_FUNC_SNPRINTF, which adds snprintf.o to LIBOBJS unless a dnl fully working snprintf is found. dnl dnl The canonical version of this file is maintained in the rra-c-util dnl package, available at . dnl dnl Written by Russ Allbery dnl Copyright 2006, 2008-2009 dnl The Board of Trustees of the Leland Stanford Junior University dnl dnl This file is free software; the authors give unlimited permission to copy dnl and/or distribute it, with or without modifications, as long as this dnl notice is preserved. dnl dnl SPDX-License-Identifier: FSFULLR dnl Source used by RRA_FUNC_SNPRINTF.
