The netsurf core no longer uses any locale dependant operations
excepting the mall number or cases where such operations are
explicitly wanted.
the netsurf_init now calls setlocale with the empty string and lets
the c library setup as per its specific implementation.
any core functionality that specificaly processes ascii text must use
the utils/ascii.h header to do so.
The API check and bounds check for option indexes was from an unsigned
enum so checking for negative numbers was causing "comparison is always
false" errors in compilation.
This removes the toskip parameter, which was only used by the RISC OS
front end. The toskip param was used to skip 8 characters which did
not need to be escaped from the start of the URL. The RISC OS front
end now orders the steps of its URL construction to avoid the need
for this.
The avoids situations were we threw away the length, only for
the caller to have to strlen the returned string.
Note, there seems to be a case of the amiga front end writing
beyond end of allocation. Added a TODO for now.
change all the frontends to provide the warning callback in the
miscelaneous table instead of using the warn_user function.
Changing all the warn_user callsites still requires completion.
The config header was causing many source files to unecessarily
include the dirent headers causing extra dependancies. This has been
fixed by providing a utility dirent header that provides a common API
across all platforms while removing the unecessary dirent header usage.
The utils header is a large collection of functionality for several
system headers and API. This splits out the ones from sys/time.h into
a separate header reducing the need for many unconnected source files
to include the system header unecessarily.
The utility configuration header dragged in a number of bsd sockets
and related API as a side effect of setting up the configuration. By
splitting the header and API setup into a separate header only the
small number of places that need the functionality explitly include
it.
currently NetSurf uses curl_getdate to convert textural date and time
strings into seconds since epoch. It is betetr to move this
functionality to a utility function so curl_getdate can easily be
replaced if required.
The printf formatting for size_t is set in c99 as %zu but in windows
it is %Iu this is solved by adding and inttypes style PRI macro for size_t
This also uses this macro everywhere size_t is formatted.
This may help with whatever issue is causing a problem with RISC OS
!Boot and !System distributions.
From the base of the netsurf repo, you can run it like this:
$ ./utils/git-date.sh riscos/distribution/
This is an attempt to amelioriate the situation found in #2384 where
we see the cURL connect() failing to complete. Based on the pcap
from the bug log, we believe that RISC OS is likely failing to signal
the completion of the connection to cURL. As such, cURL times out.
This change permits retries of timed out connections in the hope that
a fresh socket FD might subsequently function correctly. The defaults
chosen mean that the previous behaviour of 30 seconds before timeout
is reported will remain the same, but in that time we will make 3 separate
attempts to connect the socket.
Mainly C/C++ conflicts:
* Designated initializer are not part of C++
* C++ already defines min() and max()
* Force C99 and remove -O0 since we now use a decent compiler
- Fix path to look for libnetwork to work also on non-hybrid systems
- Remove references to /boot/common as it is not used anymore
- Fix a few type errors
- Use compiler provided va_copy when available
Adds check based unit test for teh bloom filter implementation. This
is based on Roberts original test code in utils/bloom.c and uses
/usr/share/dict as a source of strings to check bloom creation, no
false negatives and the false positive rate is below 15%.
