O0O0O0... huh, I thought it was. I know I meant it to be, but the pre they look the same.
What kind of second-rate joint is this? I'm going to the suggestion forum next.

Actually I think it is an Oh. BUt like you said, they look the same. It's terrible, it's a disgrace, it's, it's... I don't really care anymore.

You could have a lot of fun coming up with variations on the same theme!
It's still there in production - I suspect we left it because it is too funny to lose.

Gems like this is the reason I don't buy commercial ready-to-use components or libraries unless I can see the source code myself. 
So the creationist says: Everything must have a designer. God designed everything.
I say: Why is God the only exception? Why not make the "designs" (like man) exceptions and make God a creation of man?

I would love to see the specs for that particular case.

It's part of a real-time application with tasks that are interdependent with tasks performed by many other apps running over several networks. 9:32 was the start time for a group of tasks it needed to do. It's actually an upgrade from the now deprecated function IsBefore928()
We know the maximum time each task takes to complete, so we can use cutoff times as a simple way to coordinate tasks between different machines on different networks without them having to know anything about each other. A settings file for the task start/stop times would be better.
But to be fair, as a couple of guys have pointed out here, it does what it is supposed to!

I think they call that method every morning.

Yea, alot of unneccesary code there.

I hope you have unit tests with 100% code coverage for each one of those methods.

Previously in the code both flag and fval were malloc'd
flag = NULL;
free(flag);
fval = NULL;
free(fval);
this thing looks like it was written by an epileptic ferret

What is NULL #defined as?
|
|
|
|
|
What's the problem?
1. Remove all references
2. Invoke the GC
|
|
|
|
|
Aaaah, yeah... NULL could be a collection of references to be freed.
|
|
|
|
|
But wouldn't that free NULL twice?

flag = NULL sets it to point to nothing. This makes the memory location lost.
flag = (data_type*)malloc(sizeof(data_type)); This returns address of the memory allocated by malloc and assignes the address value to flag - something like flag = 0x2345cf. This is a valid address it is pointing to. When you say flag = NULL, flag points to nothing, then you cannot free flag because you cannot free something that does not exist.
So first free(flag); then set flag = NULL;
i.e. just change the sequence to-
free(flag);
flag = NULL;
free(fval);
fval = NULL;
