- * @brief Implementation the expected snprintf interface.

- * If the size of the passed in buffer is not large enough to hold the string,
- * two bad things happen:
- * 1. resulting formatted string is NOT null terminated
- * 2. Depending on the platform, the return value could be a) the required
- *    size of the buffer to copy the entire formatted string or b) -1.
- *    On Windows with VS.Net 2003, it returns -1 e.g. 
- *
- * safe_snprintf always adds a NULL terminator so that the caller does not
- * need to check for return value or need to add the NULL terminator.
- * It does not, however change the return value - to let the caller know
- * that the passed in buffer size was not large enough to hold the
- * formatted string.
