Alberto Massari commented on XERCESC-2179:
------------------------------------------
That code is correct too:
{code}
362 unsigned long theSize;
...
405 unsigned long theType;
406 unsigned int CPId;
407 unsigned int IEId;
408
409 theSize = sizeof(unsigned int);
410 if (::RegQueryValueExA
411 (
412 encodingKey
413 , "Codepage"
414 , 0
415 , &theType
416 , (unsigned char*)&CPId
417 , &theSize) != ERROR_SUCCESS)
418 {
419 ::RegCloseKey(encodingKey);
420 continue;
421 }
{code}
The Codepage (and the InternetEncoding quried later) are defined as REG_DWORD,
so they need just 32 bit to be stored, and both the CPId and the
sizeof(unsigned int) are enough to hold its value, with no need to add space
for a NULL terminator that in any case would be a wrong value to add just to
theSize (because CPId would not have room for 5 bytes, only for 4).
Changing the code to use the Windows macros would help reading the code, but I
don't see an actual issue here
