I've read.
It does something different to what it's name would suggest. We have had
innumerable threads dealing with this topic. Just do a Google search.
Is this because of a potential buffer overflow?
Well, it can be used with that aim, in which case it leaves an array of
char instead of a string in the destination.
I have compiled properly and used strlen too and I just wonder what is
the need to return a strlen?
Has anyone used quite abit anyway the strlen function?
You are not making any sense. Are you asking why strlen exists? It
should be obvious, even to you. How else do you find the length of a
zero terminated string?
Can you or someone else please explain why everyone is still replying
to this "Bill Cunningham' troll?
It's clear he is a troll. It's been noted countless times and he
*never* replies to the posts that call him a troll.
He always choses to take things out of context, to make
uncomprehensible sentences and ambiguous statements.
It's a troll. So.. why?
