| michael@0 | 6 | This directory contains various libc-types of functions. All functions in |
| michael@0 | 7 | this directory are platform independent, thread friendly (both safe and |
| michael@0 | 8 | efficient). They are contributed from various sources, though the contri- |
| michael@0 | 9 | butions are monitored by the NSPR group (mailto:freier). |
| michael@0 | 10 | |
| michael@0 | 11 | All API items exported by these functions will contain the same three |
| michael@0 | 12 | character prefix, "PL_" (Portable Library). Internal function names |
| michael@0 | 13 | that are not exported (static) are of little concern, though some caution |
| michael@0 | 14 | must be used on those elements that are 'extern' but not really intended |
| michael@0 | 15 | to be part of the API. Those should all have a prefix of "_PL_" (is that |
| michael@0 | 16 | legal?). |
| michael@0 | 17 | |
| michael@0 | 18 | The responsibility for contributions in this area are distributed among |
| michael@0 | 19 | all interested parties. |
