I didn't know I'd ever hear "use malloc, because it's portable".sylware is pretty much right anyway. Try to avoid malloc, or write smaller allocators on top of malloc. pjmlp 2 years ago Why bother with some #ifdefs when the ISO C standard library already does the job? the-smug-c-one 2 years ago Because you're probably writing a much larger program so some ifdefs aren't a big deal :-). 2 replies →
