Though this module is relatively small it has very clear boundaries.
The last argument for extracting `tempfile` was the errors which I got
when I was writing unittests for it: `cimport './src/nvim/fileio.h'`
does not work for some reason.
- temp_count is uint32_t now instead of long because it supposed to be
at most 999999999 (comment on line 5227) temporary files. The most
probably it was a long for compatibility with systems where int is
16-bit.
- Use "nvim" as prefix for temp folder name instead of "v"
- Remove unused parameter from vim_tempname
`-Wstrict-prototypes` warn if a function is declared or defined without
specifying the argument types.
This warning disallow function prototypes with empty parameter list.
In C, a function declared with an empty parameter list accepts an
arbitrary number of arguments when being called. This is for historic
reasons; originally, C functions didn't have prototypes, as C evolved
from B, a typeless language. When prototypes were added, the original
typeless declarations were left in the language for backwards
compatibility.
Instead we should provide `void` in argument list to state
that function doesn't have arguments.
Also this warning disallow declaring type of the parameters after the
parentheses because Neovim header generator produce no declarations for
old-stlyle prototypes: it expects to find `{` after prototype.
- The 'stripdecls.py' script replaces declarations in all headers by includes to
generated headers.
`ag '#\s*if(?!ndef NEOVIM_).*((?!#\s*endif).*\n)*#ifdef INCLUDE_GENERATED'`
was used for this.
- Add and integrate gendeclarations.lua into the build system to generate the
required includes.
- Add -Wno-unused-function
- Made a bunch of old-style definitions ANSI
This adds a requirement: all type and structure definitions must be present
before INCLUDE_GENERATED_DECLARATIONS-protected include.
Warning: mch_expandpath (path.h.generated.h) was moved manually. So far it is
the only exception.
This module will be used to implement remote management of objects through the
API. Object types to be registered must have a `uint64_t` field named 'handle'.
Problem: Now that nvim/strings.h is correctly namespaced, an issue
that had been masked until now arises:
When compiling, we get a lot of errors because of everywhere
the functions in nvim/strings.h are used, there's no include
to import them.
But, how could this compile and work previously, then? It
turns out that:
- In every such case, we are also including vim.h, which in
turn includes os_unix_defs.h.
- os_unix_defs.h includes <string.h> and also <strings.h> in
some systems (e.g. OSX).
- Build had been modified previously to (even when importing
system headers), prefer equally-named local ones. That was
in fact done as a previous attempt to solve the same issue
we are trying to solve another way now.
So, we were including our "strings.h" as a side-effect of
including <strings.h> through "vim.h" --> "os_unix_defs.h".
Solution: Correctly include "nvim/strings.h" in every file needing it.
Move files from src/ to src/nvim/.
- src/nvim/ becomes the new root dir for nvim executable sources.
- src/libnvim/ is planned to become root dir of the neovim library.
