[New-bugs-announce] [issue10607] Document of PyOS_(v)snprintf is wrong.

[INADA Naoki]

New submission from INADA Naoki <songofacandy at gmail.com>:

http://docs.python.org/c-api/conversion.html#PyOS_vsnprintf

"the buffer size needed to avoid truncation exceeds size by more than 512 bytes, Python aborts with a Py_FatalError."

I think ":cfunc:`vsprintf`'s output exeeds the buffer need to truncation that have *size* + 512byte length," is correct.
