1. A sequence of one or more distinguished ({out-of-band})
characters (or other data items), used to delimit a piece of
data intended to be treated as a unit (the computer-science
literature calls this a "sentinel"). The NUL (ASCII 0000000)
character that terminates strings in C is a fence. {Hex} FF
is also (though slightly less frequently) used this way. See
{zigamorph}.

2. An extra data value inserted in an array or other data
structure in order to allow some normal test on the array's
contents also to function as a termination test. For example,
a highly optimised routine for finding a value in an array
might artificially place a copy of the value to be searched
for after the last slot of the array, thus allowing the main
search loop to search for the value without having to check at
each pass whether the end of the array had been reached.

3. [among users of optimising compilers] Any technique,
usually exploiting knowledge about the compiler, that blocks
certain optimisations. Used when explicit mechanisms are not
available or are overkill. Typically a hack: "I call a dummy
procedure there to force a flush of the optimiser's
register-colouring info" can be expressed by the shorter
"That's a fence procedure".

[{Jargon File}]

(1999-01-08)

fence n.

Fence
(Heb. gader), Num. 22:24 (R.V.). Fences were constructions of
unmortared stones, to protect gardens, vineyards, sheepfolds,
etc. From various causes they were apt to bulge out and fall
(Ps. 62:3). In Ps. 80:12, R.V. (see Isa. 5:5), the psalmist
says, "Why hast thou broken down her fences?" Serpents delight
to lurk in the crevices of such fences (Eccl. 10:8; comp. Amos
5:19).

FENCE. A building or erection between two contiguous estates, so as to
divide them; or on the same estate, so as to divide one part from another.
2. Fences are regulated by the local laws. In general, fences on
boundaries are to be built on the line, and the expense, when made no more
expensively than is required by the law, is borne equally between the
parties. See the following cases on the subject. 2 Miles, 337, 395; 2
Greenl. 72; 11 Mass. 294; 3 Wend. 142; 2 Metc. 180; 15 Conn. 526 2 Miles,
447; Bouv. Inst. Index, h.t.
3. A partition fence is presumed to be the common property of both
owners of the land. 8 B. & C. 257, 259, note a. When built upon the land of
one of them, it is his; but if it were built equally upon the land of both,
at their joint expense, each would be the owner in severalty of the part
standing on his own land. 5 Taunt. 20; 2 Greenl. Ev. 617.
