choice but to have to cast away "const" qualifiers from their prototypes.
This does not remove constification restrictions from hash/compare
callbacks, but allows destructor commands to be run over a tables' elements
without bad casts.
and make all files the depend on it include it without prefixing it
with openssl/.
This means that all Makefiles will have $(TOP) as one of the include
directories.
sure they are available in opensslconf.h, by giving them names starting
with "OPENSSL_" to avoid conflicts with other packages and by making
sure e_os2.h will cover all platform-specific cases together with
opensslconf.h.
I've checked fairly well that nothing breaks with this (apart from
external software that will adapt if they have used something like
NO_KRB5), but I can't guarantee it completely, so a review of this
change would be a good thing.
around the callbacks required in the LHASH code for the "doall" functions.
Also - fix the evil function pointer casting in the two lh_doall functions
by deferring to a static utility function. Previously lh_doall() was
invoking lh_doall_arg() by casting the callback to the 2-parameter
prototype and passing in a NULL argument. This appears to have been working
thus far but it's not a hot idea. If the extra level of indirection becomes
a performance hit, we can just provide two virtually identical
implementations for each variant later on.
functions need to be constified, and therefore meant a number of easy
changes a little everywhere.
Now, if someone could explain to me why OBJ_dup() cheats...
so these macros probably shouldn't be used like that at all. So, this
change removes the misleading comment and also adds an implicit trailing
semi-colon to the DECLARE macros so they too don't require one.
IMPLEMENT macros for defining wrapper functions for "hash" and "cmp" callbacks
that are specific to the underlying item type in a hash-table. This prevents
function pointer casting altogether, and also provides some type-safety
because the macro does per-variable casting from the (void *) type used in
LHASH itself to the type declared in the macro - and if that doesn't match the
prototype expected by the "hash" or "cmp" function then a compiler error will
result.
NB: IMPLEMENT macros are not required unless predeclared forms are required
(either in a header file, or further up in a C file than the implementation
needs to be). The DECLARE macros must occur after the type-specific hash/cmp
callbacks are declared. Also, the IMPLEMENT and DECLARE macros are such that
they can be prefixed with "static" if desired and a trailing semi-colon should
be appended (making it look more like a regular declaration and easier on
auto-formatting text-editors too).
Now that these macros are defined, I will next be commiting changes to a
number of places in the library where the casting was doing bad things. After
that, the final step will be to make the analogous changes for the lh_doall
and lh_doall_arg functions (more specifically, their callback parameters).
casts) used in the lhash code are about as horrible and evil as they can
be. For starters, the callback prototypes contain empty parameter lists.
Yuck.
This first change defines clearer prototypes - including "typedef"'d
function pointer types to use as "hash" and "compare" callbacks, as well as
the callbacks passed to the lh_doall and lh_doall_arg iteration functions.
Now at least more explicit (and clear) casting is required in all of the
dependant code - and that should be included in this commit.
The next step will be to hunt down and obliterate some of the function
pointer casting being used when it's not necessary - a particularly evil
variant exists in the implementation of lh_doall.
Also, "make update" has added some missing functions to libeay.num,
updated the TABLE for the alpha changes, and updated thousands of
dependancies that have changed from recent commits.
