[PATCH] strstrip remove last blank fix

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi Pekka,

strstrip() does not remove the last blank from strings which only consist
of blanks.

Example:
char string[] = "  ";
strstrip(string);

results in " ", but should produce an empty string!

The following patch solves this problem:
