How these coversions works? The magic is using ##. #define high_levle_api(fmt, ...) low_levle_api(fmt, ##__VA_ARGS__) When __VA_ARGS__ is empty, "##" will swallow the "," in "fmt," to avoid compile error.
example: origin after CPP high_levle_api("%d", a_int) low_levle_api("%d", a_int) high_levle_api("a string") low_levle_api("a string")
About 400 conversions.
8 special conversions: VIR_XXXX0("") -> VIR_XXXX(" ") (avoid empty format) 2 conversions VIR_XXXX0(string_literal_with_%) -> VIR_XXXX(%->%%) 0 conversions VIR_XXXX0(non_string_literal) -> VIR_XXXX("%s", non_string_literal) (for security) 6 conversions
Hmm, I'm not entirely sure this patch is correct. VIR_XXX0(msg) should really be translated into "%s" format string and msg argument. It definitely needs to be so when msg is translated (i.e., _("...")).
In 99% of the cases, we don't really need '%s', because the strings are constant. So only the VIR_ERROR0 replacements need to be fixed to pass ("%s", ...)
