Tokstyle (check-cimple) will start enforcing comment formats at some
point. It will not support arbitrary stuff in comments, and will parse
them. The result can then be semantically analysed.
* Don't use anonymous enums (`typedef enum { ... } Name;`).
* Don't use macros to generate structs (too magical, hard to grep).
* Assign output parameter once, and don't access it a lot in the
function body.
* Don't pass type names as parameters to macros (this is C, we don't have
templates, sorry).
* All function-like macros must be do-while(0).
* `++i` instead of `i++`.
* No assignment-expressions.
* No void-casts.
"All rights reserved" was incorrect. The project was licensed under GPL3,
which means a lot of rights are licensed to everybody in the world, i.e.
not reserved to the "Tox Project".
It is still C code, so still compatible with C compilers as well. This
change lets us see more clearly where implicit conversions occur by
making them explicit.
- All global variables should be static unless they have an explicit
extern declaration in a header file.
- `to_compare` was not used in encryptsave and toxav tests.
- `break` in switch cases is not required directly after `return`,
`goto`, or a noreturn function like `abort`.
It now enforces a bit more formatting. In particular, padding inside
parentheses is removed. I would like it to remove padding after unary
operators, but there seems to be no option for that.
- Any non-externally-visible declarations should be `static`.
- Casting away the `const` qualifier from pointers-to-const is
dangerous. All but one instance of this are now correct. The one
instance where we can't keep `const` is one where toxav code actually
writes to a chunk of memory marked as `const`. This code also assumes
4 byte alignment of data packets. I don't know whether that is a valid
assumption, but it's likely unportable, and *not* obviously correct.
- Replaced empty parameter lists with `(void)` to avoid passing
parameters to it. Empty parameter lists are old style declarations for
unknown number and type of arguments.
- Commented out (as `#if DHT_HARDENING` block) the hardening code that
was never executed.
- Minor style fix: don't use `default` in enum-switches unless the number
of enumerators in the default case is very large. In this case, it was
2, so we want to list them both explicitly to be warned about missing
one if we add one in the future.
- Removed the only two function declarations from nTox.h and put them
into nTox.c. They are not used outside and nTox is not a library.
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.
