We also never really tested this, because we run make distcheck, which
does another configure with default flags instead of the ones we passed.
Fixes#317.
Having -Werror set by default causes users' builds to fail because
toxcore is not warning-free. Failing on errors is appropriate for the
development phase, e.g. when building it in a CI enviroment, but it
doesn't make much sense to fail builds for users and let them figure out
that they need to pass -DWARNINGS=OFF to make the library build.
Compiling as C++ changes nothing semantically, but ensures that we don't
break C++ compatibility while also retaining C compatibility.
C++ compatibility is useful for tooling and additional diagnostics and
analyses.
We use TRACE=ON (cmake flag) to enable LOG_TRACE. This way, a regular
build can enable DEBUG while not paying the price of TRACE. This is
particularly important for FFI bindings (especially Python), where
invoking callbacks can be an expensive operation.
When cross-compiling to <target> from Linux, cmake might find native Linux
libconfig and decide to build tox-bootstrapd. If the target is Windows, this
will fail, as tox-bootstrapd can't be built for Windows in the first place. If
the target is Linux of some other architecture, then using host native
libconfig will fail too. Thus an option is needed to guard against this.
Enabling this flag will generate and use an LD version script. It
ensures that the dynamic libraries (libtoxcore.so, libtoxav.so) only
export the symbols that are defined in their public API (tox.h and
toxav.h, respectively).
This test is already performed by `make test` later on. We originally
had it in the Travis script to make it fail fast when the format is
wrong, but there is also some value in running all tests despite format
errors.
Fixes#83. There are no more relevant phases that would benefit from the
padding lines proposed.
This removes the global logger (which by the way was deleted when the first tox
was killed, so other toxes would then stop logging). Various bits of the code
now carry a logger or pass it around. It's a bit less transparent now, but now
there is no need to have a global logger, and clients can decide what to log and
where.
- This PR also adds a DEBUG cmake option that enables -DTOX_DEBUG.
- We also remove `-Wall`, because there are too many warnings, and nobody really
looks at them at the moment. We'll see about fixing them soon. We'll also want
to enable `-Werror` at some point.
- Finally, this PR enables `-O3` to make sure toxcore still works correctly
under heavy compiler optimisations.
If libsodium can't be found with PKG_CHECK_MODULES, try AC_CHECK_LIB. If that
also fails, abort configure. If a user passes --with-libsodium-libs explicitly,
that overrides the pkg-config found location.
This allows us to more clearly define interfaces between modules, and have the
linker help us ensure that module boundaries are respected.
The onion/tcp/net_crypto layer is a bit too large. This is due to a cyclic
dependency (onion -> net_crypto -> TCP -> onion). We may or may not want to
break that cycle in the future to allow the onion library to exist on its own
without net_crypto.
Also, fix the hstox build that was taking half an hour. It now takes 5 minutes.
Also, perform distcheck on travis to ensure that make dist works. It's not
actually failing the build at the moment due to broken tests.
This is in preparation for having multiple types of build. One of the future
builds will be a hstox build, another may be frama-c or some other static
analyser. It makes sense to split these up into multiple builds, because each of
them can take a while, and running them in parallel will speed things up. Also,
the hstox test coverage should be reported separately from the toxcore auto_test
coverage.
