Simple C utilites that assist in safer code development. The idea is to create simple drop in replacements for standard routines for primary use in simple C coding (i.e. scientific codes).

These are very simple function definitions, and the easiest way to use them in code is simply to include them.

For example:

#include <check_alloc.c> 

And then make sure to include the directory where the source code lives in the compilation (-I for gcc).

You can simply copy the respective files to your source code directory, and then pass the current directory to the compiler. For example:

% gcc -I. ...
