overriding function calls without recompiling

i want to replace the *alloc and free function calls in an existing project with my own functions, to be able to log the adresses etc in a text file. (memoryleak debugging) I think LD_PRELOAD is what i am looking for. That way i could create a Library with my own malloc functions and link them...

Gen. Question - Script calls multiple programs - Return Code Handling?

General Question: If a script calls multiple external programs (external to the script, but still on unix), where do the return codes go? Let's say one of external programs fails, does the entire script fail and send a non-zero return code to the job scheduling software, or is the return code sent...

Question about the system() function in C

Hello all ! Could someone throw some light on whether there's a limit to the number of characters contained in the command string that is passed to the system() call in C. Is it OS dependent? If yes, what are the limits for each? Thanks.

err_get_reason

ERR_GET_LIB(3)							      OpenSSL							    ERR_GET_LIB(3)

NAME

       ERR_GET_LIB, ERR_GET_FUNC, ERR_GET_REASON - get library, function and reason code

SYNOPSIS

	#include <openssl/err.h>

	int ERR_GET_LIB(unsigned long e);

	int ERR_GET_FUNC(unsigned long e);

	int ERR_GET_REASON(unsigned long e);

DESCRIPTION

       The error code returned by ERR_get_error() consists of a library number, function code and reason code. ERR_GET_LIB(), ERR_GET_FUNC() and
       ERR_GET_REASON() can be used to extract these.

       The library number and function code describe where the error occurred, the reason code is the information about what went wrong.

       Each sub-library of OpenSSL has a unique library number; function and reason codes are unique within each sub-library.  Note that different
       libraries may use the same value to signal different functions and reasons.

       ERR_R_... reason codes such as ERR_R_MALLOC_FAILURE are globally unique. However, when checking for sub-library specific reason codes, be
       sure to also compare the library number.

       ERR_GET_LIB(), ERR_GET_FUNC() and ERR_GET_REASON() are macros.

RETURN VALUES

       The library number, function code and reason code respectively.

SEE ALSO

       err(3), ERR_get_error(3)

HISTORY

       ERR_GET_LIB(), ERR_GET_FUNC() and ERR_GET_REASON() are available in all versions of SSLeay and OpenSSL.
