Hi,


I have added open_wmemstream per SUSv4 to the newlib implementation of
open_memstream. The patch is attached below. Is the implementation
correct? IIUC, the size parameter gets the size in wchars in case of
having opened the memstream with open_wmemstream. I hope I got that
right.
Yes, that is how I read the spec.

- char saved; /* saved character that lived at *psize before NUL */
+ union {
+ char c;
+ wchar_t w;
+ } saved; /* saved character that lived at *psize before NUL */
+ int wide; /* wide-oriented (>0) or byte-oriented (<0) */
If wchar_t is 16 bits (as on cygwin), these last two fields occupy 64
bits. I suggest using 'char wide' instead, since it reduces the size
requirement to 32 bits.

Thanks for the hint. I changed the type of wide to int8_t in my local patch.

Beyond that, the patch looked fine to me.

Thanks for the review.


Jeff, ok to apply?


Yes, please go ahead and thanks.
