Hi
Thank you very much. I used your fix and tested again.
When i tested as below :
TEST 1 :
ret = strncmp("a", "L", -1); <----------------- ret is '0'
TEST 2:
ret = strncmp("1", "2", UINT_MAX); <------ ret is '-1'
But since size_t is unsigned int call to strncmp with third argument
as -1 should consider third argument as UINT_MAX in TEST 1, but its
not happening so.
Could you please help me to know what could be the problem.
Thanks & Regards,
Channa
