Hi
Is there any reason why shm_free does not set the pointer it is freeing to
zero once it is free-ed?
Code like:
*if (pointer) {
shm_free(pointer);*
Is not really useful seen as how shm_free does not set the pointer to zero
- any double free will still cause a crash.
I suppose it forces the developer to be careful with memory management - is
this the only reason?
Regards
Richard.
