Good news in the article, apparently asprintf is scheduled for the next POSIX standard. I wonder how one sees what is in the next POSIX standard, it would inform my choices of what I use. I&#x27;ll use something that works on all my platforms if it is headed to a standard, but usually not if it may head to oblivion.<p>Also open_memstream is POSIX 2008, now if it would just get into OS X…
