Subject: [PATCH] TUI: avoid calling strcpy() on indentical string objects
Date: Sun, 26 Apr 2015 15:17:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1430061440-20379-1-git-send-email-patrick@parcs.ath.cx> (raw)

In tui_set_source_content(), when offset == 0 the source and destination
pointers of the call to strcpy() are actually the same.  In this case
not only is strcpy() unnecessary but it is also UB when the two strings
overlap.

gdb/ChangeLog:

	* tui/tui-source.c (tui_set_source_content): Avoid calling
	strcpy() when offset is 0.
