I am a little bit in hurry!

I wrote code for a stack and a double linked list which I need for a actual project. It would be nice if anyone could test it. I don't have the time now to test it as I should.

I see that there are 0 downloads. Was the last release sooo bad?

I have already downloaded it time ago.
I had no time to test it, but formally they seems ok.
If you have uploaded a new version the download counter resets, and if you don't add a new post the update is not signaled as new post.

This is a new version with a circular buffer for strings (CRing). ;D
A wide char version (WRing) will follow.

I would like to have some more challanging test examples.
Any ideas?

A simple test case would be nice...

What is the difference between the Ring and the circular buffer?

You use CircBufWrite (but no CircBufRead), RingWrite and RingRead, each of them with a memcpy. In my implementation, there is something like CircBufferGetPointer, but the user has to decide how to write into the buffer. For example, GetCurrentDirectory(260, CircBufferGetPointer()). IMHO it avoids unnecessary copies...

Search for circbuf-tst.c

Code: [Select]
GetCurrentDirectory(260, CircBufWrite(Buffer, NULL, 260))

GetCurrentDirectory(260, CircBufWrite(Buffer, NULL, 260))

   void *p = &R->buffer[R->pos];
   if (data)
      memcpy(p, data, len);
   else
      memset(p, 0, len);


OK, I see.

Ring is a data structure which holds equal sized objects. They are written by a producer and read by a consumer who remove the objects. It is possible to detect, if the ring is full or empty. CircBuf is more a all purpose temporary memory, as discussed.

It would be interesting for me to discuss such a ring in a multithreaded environment with different threads, producing/consuming objects.
Per example: What is the overhead of using  the C11 _Atomic qualifier.
