ObjFW  History of src/OFFile.h of 3c88df0ce49598d3

This is only migrating some places, others will be migrated as they are
touched. file: [0d44e2d4f4] check-in: [a0fd103a0b] user: js, branch: trunk, size: 5771 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]

This allows ABI stability with the fragile ABI. file: [7b7e5b1049] check-in: [496695d778] user: js, branch: trunk, size: 5881 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]

As we define the ABI, we can just replace BOOL with bool everywhere,
including in ObjFW itself. For the Apple platforms where BOOL and bool
are different, this is not a problem as BOOL and bool are passed and
returned the same way in the ABI.

This still defines BOOL to bool for compatibility, except on AmigaOS and
Wii, which both have its own BOOL type. file: [1301722443] check-in: [fe2cbe0021] user: js, branch: trunk, size: 5873 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]

Instead of letting OFStream conform to it, which itself does not really
conform to it, let all the subclasses that actually do conform to it. file: [557607a4f8] check-in: [69749b6a5b] user: js, branch: trunk, size: 5871 [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: [a78b15002c] check-in: [2f4e0df8be] user: js, branch: trunk, size: 3822 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]

This removes "b" for binary and always uses binary, as there is no good
reason to not use binary. file: [cba6c42a3b] check-in: [23e57c5040] user: js, branch: trunk, size: 3776 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]

The previous one didn't work, as the index was part of the handle, but
the index could change. file: [d0fae452f5] check-in: [a9b2bd12eb] user: js, branch: trunk, size: 3981 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]

This reduces the ifdef hell and makes much more sense, as with ixemul,
no native calls are allowed. file: [dcb097e34e] check-in: [c9621825fc] user: js, branch: trunk, size: 4155 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]

As a nice side effect, this adds a designated initializer to OFFile. file: [21ad1ce6b7] check-in: [29403cc56a] user: js, branch: trunk, size: 4168 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]

Everything else should just use OFFileManager. file: [770e6d77e6] check-in: [4ebeb7e3a2] user: js, branch: trunk, size: 4347 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]

Casts are now written like types in variable declarations. file: [e4c0b1e08b] check-in: [4af49a13c3] user: js, branch: trunk, size: 4028 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]

Forgot to add 2017, even though I already did quite some changes in
2017. file: [aa46fd0cd7] check-in: [44f45c2e35] user: js, branch: trunk, size: 4024 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]

While at it, also update the mail address. file: [87ca2fc4a1] check-in: [cec0f072f8] user: js, branch: 0.8, size: 10357 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]

While at it, also update the mail address. file: [661be4a935] check-in: [2a27cf3000] user: js, branch: trunk, size: 4020 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]

This makes it possible to add support for delegates for file management
operations and on top makes it easier to add support for file management
operations on URLs. file: [5c6bbab5b7] check-in: [f3c452dfef] user: js, branch: trunk, size: 4012 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]

The reason for this is that some systems, for example Android, use
32 bits for off_t while having size related fields like st_size as
long long. file: [6f5a3bfdbb] check-in: [46b89b1c8e] user: js, branch: trunk, size: 9448 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]

This was forgotten when copy and move were changed. file: [b374fdca2a] check-in: [feaf3faad5] user: js, branch: trunk, size: 9331 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]

This replaces +[OFFile renameItemAtPath:toPath:] and supports moving
files to different logical devices. file: [00385e02ec] check-in: [260391fc1c] user: js, branch: trunk, size: 8836 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]

This replaces +[OFFile copyFileAtPath:toPath:]. file: [31d02bd727] check-in: [169f06e1ec] user: js, branch: trunk, size: 8314 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]

The arguments were inverted. file: [26dd50cf9e] check-in: [ba2b4661de] user: js, branch: trunk, size: 7816 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]

This is used for of_std{in,out,err} now instead of OFFile. file: [44af4002db] check-in: [085bfc12a0] user: js, branch: trunk, size: 7504 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]

The only places where BOOL is left are those where they are required by
the ABI. file: [bad7a67060] check-in: [c5ef582958] user: js, branch: trunk, size: 8029 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]

It is now -[fileDescriptorForReading] and -[fileDescriptorForWriting].
The split was necessary as some stream types (e.g. OFProcess) don't have
a single file descriptor, but two. This allows to use those stream types
with OFStreamObserver as well. file: [32d36c992f] check-in: [440e95fd4a] user: js, branch: trunk, size: 6288 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]

Does compile with --disable-threads --disable-shared, but does not link
yet. file: [ee5f8a5c17] check-in: [d230ac577d] user: js, branch: trunk, size: 5345 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]

Uses OFConstantString* for the format to prevent users from doing stupid
things like of_log([of_stdin readLine]). file: [4e34f334ab] check-in: [17338ef1d5] user: js, branch: trunk, size: 5165 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]

This fixes reading from stdin. file: [e16ab950d2] check-in: [5f4f207266] user: js, branch: trunk, size: 3156 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]

Endianess, size etc. may differ from system to system. While this might
be ok when writing files that are only read local again, this is
definitely not ok with sockets. So it's better to remove it from the
OFStream protocol. file: [4108e927d0] check-in: [70874cf3c5] user: js, branch: trunk, size: 4784 [annotate] [blame] [check-ins using] [diff]
