Re: [libposix-development] My personal development branch

[Andreas K. <akr...@go...>]

Oh, BTW, I just saw that you moved all the string functions into a single
file. Generally, this is a bad idea. Eventually, libposix will not only have
a shared library version, but also a static library version, and in the
latter case, having each function in a separate source file (and thus in a
separate .o file) brings huge advantages, namely ld can automatically remove
.o files that aren't referenced. On the other hand, having each function
separated into an own file has no real disadvantage in a shared library (the
effects of inter-function optimizations are usually minimal if present at
all), plus having n separate files for n functions usually makes merges
easier than 1 or only a few files that contain everything.

Regards,
Andreas
