While the idea sounds nice that the tag name is the class, this means the
serialization includes whether something is mutable or immutable. This means
doing as much as making something immutable changes the serialization, which
can then cause issues after being deserialized. file: [b73068b828] check-in: [6ce0093f8d] user: js, branch: trunk, size: 20708 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]

This uses the same format as OFEnsure(). file: [f2bc65b077] check-in: [c86b8f10f0] user: js, branch: trunk, size: 25412 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]

This is only migrating some places, others will be migrated as they are

The new names should be more accurate. file: [c47060e7f9] check-in: [627511b032] user: js, branch: trunk, size: 25876 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]

-[allocMemoryWithSize:] has book keeping overhead that is unnecessary
for temporary memory. file: [d12879cd95] check-in: [0ddaac3f5b] user: js, branch: trunk, size: 25877 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]

The internal hash is still 32 bit in most places, but this way, it is at
least not baked into the API and ABI and can be upgraded later, should
that ever be necessary. file: [804319c0a1] check-in: [aeb403a1ed] user: js, branch: trunk, size: 26446 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]

This means that if OFXMLParser parsed double-quoted attributes,
OFXMLElement will emit them with double-quotes again. file: [8558828739] check-in: [0ec6f9c1d9] user: js, branch: trunk, size: 26596 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]

Instead, explicitly declare them, as OF_ASSUME_NONNULL_{BEGIN,END} does
not apply to implicit return types. This means that after this commit,
all init methods have a nonnull return type, as they should have. file: [ac132aa128] check-in: [2f4e0df8be] user: js, branch: trunk, size: 26232 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]

Casts are now written like types in variable declarations. file: [919c1667cd] check-in: [4af49a13c3] user: js, branch: trunk, size: 26115 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]

Forgot to add 2017, even though I already did quite some changes in
2017. file: [42aaf93ae7] check-in: [44f45c2e35] user: js, branch: trunk, size: 26021 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]

This is required for static linking, as otherwise
+[OFStdIOStream_Win32Console load] will not be called. file: [60f205f64c] check-in: [e53a4fd61c] user: js, branch: trunk, size: 26015 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]

While at it, also update the mail address. file: [f4c37497cb] check-in: [cec0f072f8] user: js, branch: 0.8, size: 27665 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]

While at it, also update the mail address. file: [2b05f04b14] check-in: [2a27cf3000] user: js, branch: trunk, size: 27011 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]

Now that we can require GCC >= 4.6, we no longer need to have a category
on OFObject that adds the optional protocol to it. file: [0e6e8212ad] check-in: [ba62f00fac] user: js, branch: trunk, size: 27007 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]

Now that we require GCC >= 4.6 anyway, there's no more reason to not use
it anymore. file: [767015e338] check-in: [6b13727ce0] user: js, branch: trunk, size: 26973 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]

This increases the required GCC version from 4.0 to 4.6 (exception:
Apple GCC, which already supports this with >= 4.0 starting with OS X
10.5). Since even GCC 4.6 is really old by now, there is no point in
still supporting something even older and making the code ugly because
of that. While some hardware and OS support was dropped from GCC 4.6
compared to GCC 4.0, there is nothing in there that would be an
interesting target with the exception of BeOS maybe - but a port to BeOS
can also be achieved using the Haiku support. The other dropped OSes are
mostly old versions of OSes while newer ones are still being supported
(and those newer versions of those OSes still support the same
hardware). file: [1f70933951] check-in: [48980f2297] user: js, branch: trunk, size: 27300 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]

This means that OFObject.h imports macros.h now, making it unnecessary
to manually import macros.h in almost every file. And while at it, also
import autorelease.h in OFObject.h, so that this doesn't need to be
manually imported in almost every file as well. file: [580c49cc96] check-in: [13ee56edf3] user: js, branch: trunk, size: 27365 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]

After all, this might (and does for OFArray_adjacent!) return an
internal representation that must not be changed, so changes should be
prevented at compile-time. file: [9625f21669] check-in: [68d32a92c1] user: js, branch: trunk, size: 27409 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]

Also adds a few imports and removes unused code. file: [48732d84ce] check-in: [6192726d32] user: js, branch: trunk, size: 27361 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]

This mostly removes the argument for the class in which the exception
occurred. As backtraces were recently added for all platforms, the
passed class does not give any extra information on where the exception
occurred anymore.

This also removes a few other arguments which were not too helpful. In
the past, the idea was to pass as many arguments as possible so that it
is easier to find the origin of the exception. However, as backtraces
are a much better way to find the origin, those are not useful anymore
and just make the exception more cumbersome to use. The rule is now to
only pass arguments that might help in recovering from the exception or
provide information that is otherwise not easily accessible. file: [29fe39b5ac] check-in: [3d16a30f41] user: js, branch: trunk, size: 27419 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]

OFUnboundNamespaceException is now only used when the namespace is not
bound. If the prefix is not bound, OFUnboundPrefixException is used now. file: [5660c1a7c6] check-in: [457e0e82af] user: js, branch: trunk, size: 28405 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]

The only places where BOOL is left are those where they are required by
the ABI. file: [a91eb986c2] check-in: [c5ef582958] user: js, branch: trunk, size: 28380 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]

-[attributeForName:(namespace:)] now returns the attribute retained and
autoreleased instead of returning an inner pointer. file: [5e664c8a15] check-in: [40f7e8bd2e] user: js, branch: trunk, size: 27867 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]

This greatly improves performance, as it gets rid of the overhead of
OFAutoreleasePool. file: [01c2a13f7b] check-in: [1255f3a11a] user: js, branch: trunk, size: 26203 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]

Also adds more checks. file: [23e15b2038] check-in: [d5ddb2cb48] user: js, branch: trunk, size: 26150 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]

This is required for the new array literals. file: [5e22d1f74a] check-in: [008be86a16] user: js, branch: trunk, size: 26175 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]

It does not store the namespaces for the prefixes "xml" and "xmlns"
anymore. file: [7304a0b96d] check-in: [0a083111c7] user: js, branch: trunk, size: 24730 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]

This is safe as an "exception loop" can't happen, since if allocating
an exception fails, it throws an OFAllocFailedException which is
preallocated and can always be thrown.

So, the worst case would be that an autorelease of an exception fails,
triggering an OFOutOfMemoryException for which there is no memory,
resulting in an OFAllocFailedException to be thrown. file: [9e3650faaf] check-in: [e1e7ffa903] user: js, branch: trunk, size: 28103 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]

Also removes unnecessary OF_HASH_ADD_INT* macros (except
OF_HASH_ADD_INT32 which was often used to hash hashes and is now called
OF_HASH_ADD_HASH). file: [8a9ce6afef] check-in: [f3db074478] user: js, branch: trunk, size: 27302 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]

Although it was originally decided not to backport this to 0.5, the
decision was changed due to the fact that the initial assumption that
it might break existing code is only partially true: It will only break
code that already was broken, but it will fix all other code. file: [2e27de79cd] check-in: [21bd46e17a] user: js, branch: 0.5, size: 16988 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]

This way, we don't need a new parser and don't use a new format. file: [d290a6e873] check-in: [494dca4ae4] user: js, branch: trunk, size: 19916 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]

More specifically to this:
"The namespace name for an unprefixed attribute name always has no
value." file: [bd82ff1d44] check-in: [ed63c0fdc1] user: js, branch: trunk, size: 10953 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]

ivars are now named like this: thisIsAnIVar. If an accessor exists for
the ivar, the ivar is named like the accessor. This is required for
@property to work. file: [d6b729bcd1] check-in: [37db8f0fb3] user: js, branch: trunk, size: 6773 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]

OFDictionary:
* More optimized way to internally store the data.
* Faster resizing of dictionaries (no rehashing anymore).

OFIterator:
* Return a key/object pair rather than first the key and then the
object.

OFList:
* Support for list objects with a different size so you can have your
own list object structs. file: [8ca104aaaa] check-in: [24ecf55297] user: js, branch: trunk, size: 5161 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]
