I would suggest using snprintf instead of sprintf
to prevent accesses beyond (buf + 1024).  A bit
more complicated if you want to know that the
result was truncated, since you need to adjust the
remaining length based on the return value from
the prior snprintf, as well as checking for
overflow.

This is calling out for a wrapping up in a function or two that can do
the book-keeping automatically (and use an expandable buffer, if the use
case demands).

Yes, I haven't been able to justify doing an equivalent for sprintf() yet.

I don't remember if he did. Maybe he told samples, but I think he mostly 
told us of quirks of the language, things that were errors, but that the 
compiler did not signal, so that we being aware we would write correct C 
code.

It is possible that current C compilers signal many more problems that 
back then, but not runtime errors.

I would have to seek my hand notes.

Mostly accessing variables beyond the end of it. Arrays or strings were 
the most blatant example.

gcc has become pickier. That isn't always a welcome thing when working 
with legacy code and requires a search of the compiler options to get it 
to shut up about such horrible heresies as assuming a function returns an 
int.

   Yea ... noticed this trend.

   I *suppose* it's "for the best" ... however .....

   Admit it ... people OFTEN write HORRIBLE code with
   all sorts of 'assumptions' and security-vulnerable
   stuff in there. It's probably why M$ has some major
   security prob listed every week .....

I re-worked my code over time so that -Wall yields no errors.
And then a new version of gcc comes out which picks even more
nits, and the process repeats.  Not being a quick-and-dirty
type, I consider it a win overall.

The one exception is its scrutiny of printf() calls.
That was a step too far, so I added -Wno-format-overflow.

It was never a good idea but the legacy code often defined a variable in 
a .h file. The newer gcc implementations would throw multiple definition 
errors. Fixing it would have been painful. foo.h that defined int bar; 
might be included in several different programs so you would have to hunt 
down all the uses and then define bar someplace in a .c file. 

Great project for the new guy but at the time the newest guy had been 
there for 20 years. Adding the compiler flag to the relevant makefiles was 
easier. 

The missing int return type in function definitions wasn't as widespread 
and an easier fix. It was sort of pedantic since the return usually wasn't 
being checked anyway.

In multi-module programs I define my globals in a .h file as follows:

common.h
--------
#ifdef PRIMARY
#define GLOBAL
#else
#define GLOBAL extern
#endif

foo.h
-----
#include "common.h"
GLOBAL int foo;

foo1.c
------
#define PRIMARY
#include "foo.h"
int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
    setfoo();
    printf("foo is %d\n", foo);
    exit(0);
}

foo2.c
------
#include "foo.h"
void setfoo()
{
    foo = 5;
}

It works for me; I like having only one declaration of "foo"
in my source modules.

  I used to do that, and I eventually didn't like it.  I then switched to
declaring all my global variables in one file:

globals.c
--------

int         c_maxitems;
char const *c_name = "Blah de blah blah";
int         g_foo;

  This file will also contain the code to set global variables that I
consider "constant" (the variables that start with "c_").  This allows them
to be set at program start up.  Then the include file:

globals.h
---------

extern int  const        c_maxitems;
extern char const *const c_name;
extern int               g_foo;

extern int global_init(int,char *[]);

Note:  "globals.c" will never include "gloabls.h".  Oh, and the weird const
placement?  That avoid the that weird C-spiral rule.  The way I use "const"
these days means it applies to the thing on the right:

	char       *      p; // mutable pointer to mutable char
	char const *      q; // mutable pointer to constant char
	char       *const r; // constant pointer to mutable char
	char const *const s; // constant pointer to constant char

  Recently, I've been writing code with no global variables.  It's been a
fun experiment.

	why do you ask?)

When I started looking at the Blender source code, I came across these
global variables called “G” and “C”. They contained context relating
to the currently-open document.

Finding out where they were defined, across over a million lines of
source code, was a fun exercise. I learned somethings about ctags
along the way ...

I prefer cscope but each to their own. Either integrates nicely with vim.

Canonically speaking, one uses an 'include guard' to ensure that
a header file is only included once.

Typically

common.h
-------
#if !defined(__common_h__)
#define __common_h__

  <header file content>

#endif

In modern C/C++ you can also  do this with a single line in the header file

#pragma once

If the code were mine, I would correct the code. Even back then, I did 
not take the assumption that a function would return an integer :-D

I wrote explicit prototypes in the header file. :-)


If the code is not mine, I would use the compiler options instead. 
Unless I got paid to maintain that code, then I would correct the code.

When you have a few hundred thousand lines of legacy code you choose your 
battles. Fixing emergent bugs and adding new functionality trumps hunting 
down stuff the most recent gcc whines about if there is a handy compiler 
flag.

That’s why they call it “technical debt”. And yes, like any debt, it
incurs interest -- compound interest, even ...

Gcc will tag things that could cause a run-time error, such as
parameters that don't match the specifiers in a printf() call.

I periodically also build projects using clang. Clang and gcc each
catch some problems that the other does not catch.

Don't fix what ain't broke, you might break it [1] :-D

No kidding. I fixed an obvious bug and it didn't go over well with the 
sites. They had found the bug and exploited it to assign the same unit to 
two or more calls at once. There was the possibility of system instability 
that would require a support person to untangle it but it *usually* 
worked.
