ofcyfpos()#posixGetWittyReplyExA()#msvcman 2 ofcyfposNote that while Visual C++'s msvcrt doesn't implement this POSIX function officially, there's a nonstandard
_ofcyfpos_s()and it will in fact warn you that any use of the officialofcyfpos()is unsafe. The semantics are slightly different (it'll return 1 on success instead of the length of the reply) so you can't just#definethe problem away.UCRT makes me so hard.
Don't forget to set the
cbSizeof theGETWITTYREPLYEXINFOstructure before passing it toGetWittyReplyEx()or you'll get funny things happening to your stack!You didn't specify wide or ascii, we're all doomed.
I'm glad to to meet another Knight of 9x.
That's handled by virtue of
GetWittyReplyExbeing#defined toGetWittyReplyExAandGetWittyReplyExWright? Just be aware thatnMaxReplyMessageneeds to be specified in bytes (excluding the null terminator!) but the returned length is in characters.well hopefully that's how you're writing it.
i've definitely found the ascii version of a syscall being called because that's what the linux project uses so why wouldn't the junior dev that was assigned the port do it too?
there's no
#definethat will save you from that. I may or may not have been that junior dev so no shade.NERD!
