NAME¶
add_of - add two integers, check for arithmetic overflow
SYNTAX¶
#include <libowfat/rangecheck.h>
int add_of(dest,a,b);
DESCRIPTION¶
If calculating a+b is possible without causing undefined behavior or an arithmetic overflow in C, and the sum fits into the destination integer type, do dest=a+b and return 0.
Otherwise, return 1.
Note: This is a macro, so dest does not have to be a pointer.
BUGS¶
In the multiplication functions, a return value of 1 signals success and 0 failure. In add_of, sub_of and assign it's the other way around.
