package does have BXA export approval, but the licensing strings on the dnssafe code are a bit unpleasant. The crypto is easy to restore and bind will run without it - just without full dnssec support. Obtained from: The Internet Software Consortium (www.isc.org)

.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn REQUIRE ,
|
|
.Fn ENSURE ,
|
|
.Fn INSIST ,
|
|
and
|
|
.Fn INVARIANT
|
|
macros evaluate a boolean expression, and if it is false, they invoke the
|
|
current assertion failure callback. The default callback will print a message
|
|
to
|
|
.Li stderr
|
|
describing the failure, and then cause the program to dump core.
|
|
If the
|
|
.Dq Fn _ERR
|
|
variant of the assertion is used, the callback will include
|
|
.Fn strerror "errno"
|
|
in its message.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Each assertion type has an associated
|
|
.Li CHECK
|
|
macro. If this macro's value is
|
|
.Dq 0
|
|
when
|
|
.Dq "<isc/assertions.h>"
|
|
is included, then assertions of that type will not be checked. E.g.
|
|
|
|
.Dl #define CHECK_ENSURE 0
|
|
|
|
will disable checking of
|
|
.Fn ENSURE
|
|
and
|
|
.Fn ENSURE_ERR .
|
|
The macros
|
|
.Li CHECK_ALL
|
|
and
|
|
.Li CHECK_NONE
|
|
may also be used, respectively specifying that either all or none of the
|
|
assertion types should be checked.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Fn set_assertion_failure_callback
|
|
specifies the function to call when an assertion fails.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
When an
|
|
.li
|
|
assertion_failure_callback
|
|
is called, the
|
|
.Fa filename
|
|
and
|
|
.Fa line
|
|
arguments specify the filename and line number of the failing assertion.
|
|
The
|
|
.Fa type
|
|
is one of:
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
assert_require
|
|
assert_ensure
|
|
assert_insist
|
|
assert_invariant
|
|
.Ed
|
|
|
|
and may be used by the callback to determine the type of the failing
|
|
assertion.
|
|
.Fa condition
|
|
is the literal text of the assertion that failed.
|
|
.Fa print_errno
|
|
will be non-zero if the callback should print
|
|
.Fa strerror "errno"
|
|
as part of its output.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Fn assertion_type_to_text
|
|
returns a textual representation of
|
|
.Fa type .
|
|
For example,
|
|
.Fn assertion_type_to_text "assert_require"
|
|
returns the string
|
|
.Dq REQUIRE .
