* Do not call strerror()Gravatar wm42014-11-26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ...because everything is terrible. strerror() is not documented as having to be thread-safe by POSIX and C11. (Which is pretty much bullshit, because both mandate threads and some form of thread-local storage - so there's no excuse why implementation couldn't implement this in a thread-safe way. Especially with C11 this is ridiculous, because there is no way to use threads and convert error numbers to strings at the same time!) Since we heavily use threads now, we should avoid unsafe functions like strerror(). strerror_r() is in POSIX, but GNU/glibc deliberately fucks it up and gives the function different semantics than the POSIX one. It's a bit of work to convince this piece of shit to expose the POSIX standard function, and not the messed up GNU one. strerror_l() is also in POSIX, but only since the 2008 standard, and thus is not widespread. The solution is using avlibc (libavutil, by its official name), which handles the unportable details for us, mostly. We avoid some pain.
* parse_configfile: check quote termination properlyGravatar wm42014-11-21
| | | | | | This is some terrible code; I blame MPlayer legacy. Found by Coverity.
* config: adjust config parser messagesGravatar wm42014-07-13
| | | | Some cleanup. Also, try not to call mp_msg multiple times for 1 line.
* config: skip BOMGravatar wm42014-07-12

* Audit and replace all ctype.h usesGravatar wm42014-07-01
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Something like "char *s = ...; isdigit(s[0]);" triggers undefined behavior, because char can be signed, and thus s[0] can be a negative value. The is*() functions require unsigned char _or_ EOF. EOF is a special value outside of unsigned char range, thus the argument to the is*() functions can't be a char. This undefined behavior can actually trigger crashes if the implementation of these functions e.g. uses lookup tables, which are then indexed with out-of-range values. Replace all <ctype.h> uses with our own custom mp_is*() functions added with misc/ctype.h. As a bonus, these functions are locale-independent. (Although currently, we _require_ C locale for other reasons.)
* options: remove a global variableGravatar wm42014-06-11
| | | | This is probably the last one, at least with my current configuration.
* options: let unknown option case be handled by final option parserGravatar wm42014-05-05
| | | | | | | If an option is completely missing, let m_config_parse_option() handle this case, instead of erroring out early. Needed for the following commit.
* encode: don't apply default config optionsGravatar wm42014-04-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | Often, user configs set options that are not suitable for encoding. Usually, playback and encoding are pretty different things, so it makes sense to keep them strictly separate. There are several possible solutions. The approach taken by this commit is to basically ignore the default config settings, and switch to an [encoding] config profile section instead. This also makes it impossible to have --o in a config file, because --o enables encode mode. See github issue #727 for discussion.
* options: some more mp_msg conversionsGravatar wm42013-12-21

* Split mpvcore/ into common/, misc/, bstr/Gravatar wm42013-12-17

* Move options/config related files from mpvcore/ to options/Gravatar wm42013-12-17
Since m_option.h and options.h are extremely often included, a lot of files have to be changed. Moving path.c/h to options/ is a bit questionable, but since this is mainly about access to config files (which are also handled in options/), it's probably ok.
