No, malloced memory is mutable; the CreateProcessW call is free to change the contents of the buffer. The size of the buffer is fixed, but that's basically the case for *all* buffers. You 'change' the size of a buffer by creating a new one and copying the contents of the old one to it. So if the CreateProcessW call wanted a larger buffer for something, it would simply create one and copy the command line data into it. _______________________________________________ Gnustep-dev mailing list Gnustep-dev@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnustep-dev
