OK - something like this? Should keep non-printable/control characters
out of logs too...
static const char *
assign_application_name(const char *newval, bool doit, GucSource source)
{ /* Only allow clean ASCII chars in the application name */ int x;
char *repval = guc_malloc(ERROR, strlen(newval) + 1); repval[0] = 0;
for (x=0; x<strlen(newval); x++) { if (newval[x] < 32 || newval[x] > 126)
repval[x] = '?'; else repval[x] = newval[x]; }
repval[x+1] = 0; return repval;
}
