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.
Test socket validity by comparing to TR_BAD_SOCKET instead of various
(and sometimes wrong) other tests like `x >= 0`, `x != -1`, `x > 0`,
`x > -1`, `x` (valid), and `x < 0`, `x == -1` (invalid).
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.
max-open-files might have been a nice configuration option once, but (1) we've never advertised it in the gui apps, and (2) the crazy cases are causing more trouble than this feature is worth. It's more complicated now after #4164 -- see #4294, #4311, and this ticket.
querying gconf2 each time the curl callack function is called is expensive, so query it once -- then again later, if the proxy settings change -- and remember the values in a local struct.
We can stop local peer discovery immediately during shutdown, but need to leave the announcer running for the event=stopped messages. So it doesn't make sense to keep them on the same periodic timer.
User jusid reports prefetch causes load on his NMT to jump from <1 to 3-4. He requests a way to disable prefetch, and suggests that prefetch be disabled by default on lightweight builds. This commit adds a new settings.json key, "prefetch-enabled", which defaults to "true" on standard builds and "false" when compiled with --enable-lightweight.
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.
