Hi Thomas, Christoph, thanks for the comments .  Of course the init of  * 
decodedLen  must be added .
In  case of  returning  NULL  from  decodePath   ,   we would have  tmp == NULL 
 (in char* tmp = func;  )     , assign  tmp to res  and  then  we   
jplis_assert   , see :

#define TRANSFORM(res,func) {    \
    char* tmp = func;            \
    if (tmp != res) {            \
        free(res);               \
        res = tmp;               \
    }                            \
    jplis_assert((void*)res != (void*)NULL);     \
}
….
TRANSFORM(path, decodePath(path,&len));

InvocationAdapter

Hi Matthias,

I am not certain the callers are prepared to handle NULL.

This is used in a chain of TRANSFORM macro calls which AFAICS do not handle 
NULL; e.g. , at 872, we pass the returned pointer to 
convertUft8ToPlatformString which passes it on (on Windows) to 
MultiByteToWideChar, which does not handle NULL input.

So I wonder whether a clear error message with an exit would be better in this 
case. Otherwise we may get a crash just some instructions later.

Cheers, Thomas

Hello, please review this small  patch .
It adds return value checking for calloc at one place where it is missing .

Thanks, Matthias
