[En-Nut-Discussion] strtok_r conflicts

[peter.scandrett at transport.alstom.com]

Hi all,

Last night Ted Roth wrote
        I also noticed that the strtok_r decl
        in nutos is different than that in
        avr-libc and linux.

When I initially wrote STRTOK_R, STRSEP_R and STRSEP_RS quite a few years 
ago I was unaware of the existing function prototypes. (The net was not as 
big as it is today.)

This is my dilemma. Do I modify these functions to fit in with the 
existing function prototypes, or do I leave it alone? The prototypes would 
change from
        char * strtok_r(  char ** pp_str, char * p_term );
        char * strsep_r(  char ** pp_str, char * p_term );
        char * strsep_rs( char ** pp_str, char * p_term, char * p_sep );
to
        char * strtok_r(  char * p_str, char * p_term, char ** p_save );
        char * strsep_r(  char * p_str, char * p_term, char ** p_save );
        char * strsep_rs( char * p_str, char * p_term, char ** p_save, 
char * p_sep );

Changing it now would mean the minimum amount of code change to others as 
my version has been in circulation for less than two months.

My feeling is my version should change to be the same as linux, qnx, mks, 
redhat, gnu, novell, etc.. However this may not be the best in the long 
term. The changes are not big.

Your input, and especially Ted Roth's and Harald Kip's input, would be 
appreciated.

Cheers,
Peter Scandrett
