Since there is no way to mark parameters as [potentially] unused in
standard C and when using MSVC compiler, use the widely accepted
cast-to-void approach instead.
* chore: fix deprecation warnings of GTK_STOCK_ use.
This is just a tiny step towards getting all of the GTK code up-to-date,
but GTK_STOCK warnings are the lowest-hanging fruit of the warnings, so
let's fix them.
Assignments explicitly enclosed in parentheses are ignored.
* MISRA C:2004, 13.1 - Assignment operators shall not be used in expressions
that yield a Boolean value
* MISRA C++:2008, 6-2-1 - Assignment operators shall not be used in
sub-expressions
* MISRA C:2012, 13.4 - The result of an assignment operator should not be used
* MITRE, CWE-481 - Assigning instead of Comparing
* CERT, EXP45-C. - Do not perform assignments in selection statements
* CERT, EXP51-J. - Do not perform assignments in conditional expressions
This way all the qualifiers (`const`, `volatile`, `mutable`) are grouped
together, e.g. `T const* const x` vs. `const T* const x`. Also helps reading
types right-to-left, e.g. "constant pointer to constant T" vs. "constant
pointer to T which is constant".
There're places where manual intervention is still required as uncrustify
is not ideal (unfortunately), but at least one may rely on it to do the
right thing most of the time (e.g. when sending in a patch).
The style itself is quite different from what we had before but making it
uniform across all the codebase is the key. I also hope that it'll make the
code more readable (YMMV) and less sensitive to further changes.
1. add the option the code to be used under GPLv2 or GPLv3; previously only GPLv2 was allowed
2. add the "proxy option" as described in GPLv3 so we can add future licenses without having to bulk-edit everything again :)
3. remove the awkward "exception for MIT code in Mac client" clause; it was unnecessary and confusing.
According to the GTK+ documentation, this "can be an advantage in situations where resizing the label because of text changes would be distracting, e.g. in a statusbar." It doesn't seem to prevent relayout in GTK+ 2.20.1, but maybe other versions of GTK+ will make better use of the flag.
Some of the refresh events to the main window's torrent list are caused by main window relayout caused by the toolbar's GtkLabels recalculating their size after being updated once per second. To prevent relayout in some trivial cases, I'm replacing the gtk_label_set_text() calls with gtr_label_set_text() because the latter doesn't update the label widget if the old and new text strings are the same.
There are other changes that can handle more important cases -- I'll test those out next.
The Berne Convention says that the copyright year is moot, so instead of adding another year to each file as in previous years, I've removed the year altogether from the source code comments in libtransmission, gtk, qt, utils, daemon, and cli.
Juliusz's copyright notice in tr-dht and Johannes' copyright notice in tr-lpd have been left alone; it didn't seem appropriate to modify them.
