> Key: DISPATCH-1783

> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Tests
> Reporter: Jiri Daněk
> Priority: Major
>
> During the work on https://github.com/apache/qpid-dispatch/pull/684, there was at one point a version which allowed to what happens if a {{vsnprintf}} called from {{safe_snprinf}} returns {{-1}}.
> This was done by replacing the {{vsnprintf}} with a mock (technically it's probably a stub, or maybe fake, but let's ignore the proper terminology).
> There are various possibilities how to approach mocking in C. They are less nice than in more dynamic languages such as Java, or even C++ (where it's possible to subclass things). Nevertheless, it can be useful technique, and it should be explored.
