I recently had this exact problem in a C library I'm working on. In the
end I went with something like the following:
// `d` for "destructive"
void foo_do_something_d (foo *a, foo *b)
{
// do something with a and b...
}
void foo_do_something (foo *r, foo *a, foo *b)
{
foo_copy_to(r, a);
foo_do_something_d(r, b);
}
