bcd calls exit

Open kwizart opened this issue 3 years ago • 0 comments

There is this error when reviewing the bcd package for Fedora:

This library package calls exit() or _exit(), probably in a non-fork() context. Doing so from a library is strongly discouraged - when a library function calls exit(), it prevents the calling program from handling the error, reporting it to the user, closing files properly, and cleaning up any state that the program has. It is preferred for the library to return an actual error code and let the calling program decide how to handle the situation.

For example, I wonder if the library could return 0.f; on functions that expects a float ?
