this patch is from upstream, to fix -Wdeprecated-non-prototypes issues.
K&R-style has apparently been deprecated since even C89, and C2x will be
repurposing the syntax space. this warning triggers when the change would
affect the meaning of the code.
Unfortunately, due to the Windows equivalent of executable permissions
being a bit tricky, there is follow-up work to be done.
What is done in this commit is the hash modifications. At the fetch
layer, executable bits inside packages are ignored. In the hash
computation layer, executable bit is implemented for POSIX but not yet
for Windows. This means that the hash will not break again in the future
for packages that do not have any executable files, but it will break
for packages that do.
This is a hash-breaking change.
Closes#14308
PR #10610 addressed most of the points from #1854. This
additional paragraph and examples covers the OMISSIONS section
clarifying issues about indexing into non-ASCII strings (whether valid
UTF-8 or not). I think this finally closes#1854.
Several enhancements to the build system. Many breaking changes to the API.
* combine `std.build` and `std.build.Builder` into `std.Build`
* eliminate `setTarget` and `setBuildMode`; use an options struct for `b.addExecutable` and friends
* implement passing options to dependency packages. closes#14285
* rename `LibExeObjStep` to `CompileStep`
* move src.type.CType to std lib, use it from std.Build, this helps with populating config.h files.
Usage of `catch unreachable` in build scripts is completely harmless
because build scripts are always run in Debug mode, however, it sets a
poor example for beginners to learn from.
These declarations are now aliases of their new APIs and marked as
deprecated via doc comments:
* std.build.Builder
* std.build
* std.Build.LibExeObjStep
This is a breaking change that makes the API for creating build
artifacts no longer have any period of time where the target and
optimization mode are not set.
* introduce the concept of maps to user input options, but don't
implement it for command line arg parsing yet.
* remove setPreferredReleaseMode and standardReleaseOptions in favor of
standardOptimizeOption which has a future-proof options parameter.
