* util: Add a string buffer implementationThomas Helland2017-09-261-0/+148
Based on Vladislav Egorovs work on the preprocessor, but split out to a util functionality that should be universal. Setup, teardown, memory handling and general layout is modeled around the hash_table and the set, to make it familiar for everyone. A notable change is that this implementation is always null terminated. The rationale is that it will be less error-prone, as one might access the buffer directly, thereby reading a non-terminated string. Also, vsnprintf and friends prints the null-terminator. Signed-off-by: Thomas Helland <[email protected]> Tested-by: Dieter Nützel <Dieter at nuetzel-hh.de> Reviewed-by: Nicolai Hähnle <[email protected]> V2: Address review feedback from Timothy and Grazvydas - Fix MINGW preprocessor check - Changed len from uint to int - Make string argument const in append function - Move to header and inline append function - Add crimp_to_fit function for resizing buffer V3: Move include of ralloc to string_buffer.h V4: Use u_string.h for a cross-platform working vsnprintf V5: Remember to cast to char * in crimp function V6: Address review feedback from Nicolai - Handle !str->buf in buffer_create - Ensure va_end is always called in buffer_append_all - Add overflow check in buffer_append_len - Do not expose buffer_space_left, just remove it - Clarify why a loop is used in vprintf, change to for-loop - Add a va_copy to buffer_vprintf to fix failure to append arguments when having to resize the buffer for vsnprintf. V7: Address more review feedback from Nicolai - Add missing va_end corresponding to va_copy - Error check failure to allocate in crimp_to_fit
