Too trivial to be worth copyrighting :-). I did that because a lot of code used malloc and strdup without checking for NULL pointer, and I like some message better than a core dump... --marekm Yeh, but. Remember that bailing out might leave the system in some bizarre state. You really want to put in error checking, then add some back-out failure recovery code. -- jfh */ #include "../config.h" #include #include #include #include "xmalloc.h" char *xmalloc(size_t size) { char *ptr; ptr = malloc(size); if (!ptr && size) { fprintf(stderr, "malloc(%d) failed\n", (int) size); exit(13); } return ptr; } char *xstrdup(const char *str) { return strcpy(xmalloc(strlen(str) + 1), str); }
