SpiderMonkey was updated to mozjs24. If you want to build elinks
with ecmascript support, you must compile using g++ with -fpermissive .
There is a lot of warnings.
There are some memleaks in ecmascript code, especially related to JSAutoCompartment.
I don't know yet, where and how to free it.
Debian does not support mozjs24, so I'm going to gradually update SpiderMonkey version.
Weak points:
- alignof
- js problems
Todo:
- make js work with C++ and mozjs-17
- then mozjs-24
- then mozjs-52
- then mozjs-60
- decrease number of warnings
than 2GiB in the download dialog. Also let regetting big files.
Previously the Content-Length variable in http.c was int, what is
not enough. Now it is long long.
Add a 'Search contents' button to the cache manager that searches
through the cache items' data rather than their metadata.
Add match_cache_entry_contents.
Add push_cache_hierbox_search_button and
push_cache_hierbox_search_contents_button, which call
push_hierbox_search_button after setting box->ops to either
cache_entry_listbox_ops or cache_entry_listbox_ops_match_contents,
respectively, which define the appropriate match callback for the
hierbox search code.
Add strlcasestr, used in the new match_cache_entry_contents routine.
C99 6.7.4p3 and 6.7.4p6 set some constraints on what can be done in
inline functions and how they can be declared. In particular, any
function declared inline must also be defined in the same translation
unit. To comply with that, remove inline specifiers from function
declarations in header files when the functions are not also defined
in those header files.
Sun Studio 11 on Solaris 9 is stricter than C99 and does not allow
references to static identifiers in extern inline functions. Make the
configure script detect this and define NONSTATIC_INLINE accordingly
in config.h. Then use that in the definitions of all non-static
inline functions.
Document the restrictions and this scheme in doc/hacking.txt.
This also makes the bookmark-update event carry strings in UTF-8.
The only current consumer of that event is bookmark_change_hook(),
which ignores the strings, so no changes are needed there.
c_strcasecmp and c_strncasecmp were taken from GNU coreutils 6.9,
which is copyrighted by the Free Software Foundation and licensed
under GNU GPL version 2 or later. It seems the programs in coreutils
do not normally read commands interactively. So, including coreutils
code in an interactive program such as ELinks could trigger GPLv2
section 2. c), which would require ELinks to display a copyright
notice and a warranty disclaimer each time it is started. Rewrite
those functions to remove the FSF-copyrighted code and make ELinks
not a work based on GNU coreutils.
Avoiding FSF code has the additional benefit that we won't have to ask
FSF for permission if we want to add a licence exception that allows
linking ELinks with OpenSSL. So it seems a good idea even if my
interpretation of GPLv2 2. c) is overly strict. I haven't checked
though whether there are other FSF-copyrighted portions in ELinks.
If ELinks is being linked with SSL library, use its random number
generator.
Otherwise, try /dev/urandom and /dev/prandom. If they do not work,
fall back to rand(), calling srand() only once. This fallback is
mostly interesting for the Hurd and Microsoft Windows.
BitTorrent piece selection and dom/test/html-mangle.c still use rand()
(but not srand()) directly. Those would not benefit from being
unpredictable, I think.

This bug was revelead while using bittorrent.
For filenames started with a dot and two slashes .//
the open_bittorrent_file returned -1 and set errno to EEXIST.
Instead, convert the element pointers inside the comparison functions.
The last argument of qsort() is supposed to be of type
int (*)(const void *, const void *). Previously, comp_links() was
defined to take struct link * instead of const void *, and the type
mismatch was silenced by casting the function pointer to void *.
This was in principle not portable because:
(1) The different pointer types may have different representations.
In a word-oriented machine, the const void * might include a byte
selector while the struct link * might not.
(2) Casting a function pointer to a data pointer can lose bits in some
memory models. Apparently this does not occur in POSIX-conforming
systems though, as dlsym() would fail if it did.
This commit also fixes hits_cmp() and compare_dir_entries(), which
had similar problems. However, I'm leaving alias_compare() in
src/intl/gettext/localealias.c unchanged for now, so as not to diverge
from the GNU version.
I also checked the bsearch() calls but they were all okay, apart from
one that used the alias_compare() mentioned above.
There were conflicts in src/document/css/ because 0.12.GIT switched
to LIST_OF(struct css_selector) and 0.13.GIT switched to struct
css_selector_set. Resolved by using LIST_OF(struct css_selector)
inside struct css_selector_set.
Old versions of add_string_to_string returned the target string
unmodified if from->source pointed to a null character, which usually
meant that the source string was empty. That was changed in commit
5e18576391f75ad84e04f9c8a30b93d08f0b92ab on 2004-11-03 so that
add_string_to_string instead returned NULL in that situation. The
change seems to have been inadvertent.
I'm now reverting that change and also making add_string_to_string
check the emptiness of the source string based on the stored length
only, rather than on any null characters. So the function can now
also be used with non-C strings containing embedded null characters.
Note that the previous version did not completely prevent embedded
null characters either, because it checked only the first character.
string_concat reads the args with va_arg(ap, const unsigned char *),
and the NULL macro may have the wrong type (e.g. int).
Many places pass string literals of type char * to string_concat.
This is in principle also a violation, but I'm ignoring it for now
because if it becomes a problem with some C implementation, then so
will the use of unsigned char * with printf "%s", which is so
widespread in ELinks that I'm not going to try fixing it now.
straconcat reads the args with va_arg(ap, const unsigned char *),
and the NULL macro may have the wrong type (e.g. int).
Many places pass string literals of type char * to straconcat. This
is in principle also a violation, but I'm ignoring it for now because
if it becomes a problem with some C implementation, then so will the
use of unsigned char * with printf "%s", which is so widespread in
ELinks that I'm not going to try fixing it now.
