There were a number of recent proposals to adopt various POSIX functions by Martin Sebor into C including:
N2353 2019/03/17 Sebor, Add strdup and strndup to C2X
N2352 2019/03/17 Sebor, Add stpcpy, and stpncpy to C2X
N2351 2019/03/17 Sebor, Add strnlen to C2X
6.33 Sebor, Add strnlen to C2X [N 2351]
Result: No consensus on putting N2351 into C2X.
6.34 Sebor, Add stpcpy, and stpncpy to C2X [N 2352]
Result: No consensus to put N2352 into C2X.
6.35 Sebor, Add strdup and strndup to C2X [N 2353]
Result: N2353 be put into C2X.
The committee wants a proposal for the wide character versions of any POSIX
functions voted in this meeting.
There have been some disagreements on strlcpy/strlcat (BSD vs glibc crowd), although by now the debate has died off and these functions are pretty widely used. Also, while here, it would be lovely to have strchrnul() included.
