compat: probe for strcasestr more thoroughly

2023-08-27T22:39:23Z

Depending on compiler (gcc, g++, clang) and standard options (c99, c11), string.h may or may not include strings.h, leading to possibly missing or conflicting declarations of strcasestr. Include both so that both detection and compilation phases use the same (possibly optimised) implementations. Suggested-by: Thomas Schneider Suggested-by: Florian Weimer Suggested-by: Tomi Ollila

compat: rename {,notmuch_}canonicalize_file_name

2021-04-24T11:07:00Z

When compat canonicalize_file_name was introduced, it was limited to C code only because it was used by C code only during that time. >From 5ec6fd4d, (lib/open: check for split configuration when creating database., 2021-02-16), lib/open.cc, which is C++, relies on the existent of canonicalize_file_name. However, we can't blindly enable canonicalize_file_name for C++ code, because different implementation has different additional signature for C++ and users can arbitrarily add -DHAVE_CANONICALIZE_FILE_NAME=0 to {C,CXX}FLAGS. Let's move our implementation into a util library. Helped-by: Tomi Ollila Signed-off-by: Đoàn Trần Công Danh

emacs: Use makefile-gmake-mode in Makefile*s

2020-08-10T00:14:36Z

Use `makefile-gmake-mode' instead of `makefile-mode' because the former also highlights ifdef et al. while the latter does not. "./Makefile.global" and one "Makefile.local" failed to specify any major mode at all but doing so is necessary because Emacs does not automatically figure out that these are Makefiles (of any flavor).

compat: run uncrustify

2019-06-14T10:41:27Z

This is the result of running $ uncrustify --replace --config ../devel/uncrustify.cfg *.c *.h in the compat directory

Use rooted paths in .gitignore files

2017-08-18T22:42:35Z

A leading / in paths in a .gitignore file matches the beginning of the path, meaning that for patterns without slashes, git will match files only in the current directory as opposed to in any subdirectory. Prefix relevant paths with / in .gitignore files, to prevent accidentally ignoring files in subdirectories and possibly slightly improve the performance of "git status".

compat: don't include compat.h from the feature test source

2017-05-11T23:42:37Z

The feature test code should test the build environment, and none of the compat code should interfere with that. Don't include compat.h from the feature test source. There should be no functional changes here, but this is just the right thing to do.

Use https instead of http where possible

2016-06-05T11:32:17Z

Many of the external links found in the notmuch source can be resolved using https instead of http. This changeset addresses as many as i could find, without touching the e-mail corpus or expected outputs found in tests.

configure: add workaround for systems without zlib.pc

2014-06-21T19:40:39Z

Some systems (e.g. FreeBSD) might not have installed the appropriate pkg-config file as they should. We can workaround the issue by creating the .pc file they should have distributed. Signed-off-by: Felipe Contreras

compat: add canonicalize_file_name

2014-04-08T10:27:14Z

the POSIX 2008 behaviour of realpath is not available everywhere so we provide a simple wrapper function. We use (and provide) the gnu extension canonicalize_file_name to make it cleaner to test for the feature we need; otherwise we have to rely on realpath segfaulting if the second argument is null.

new: Detect dirent.d_type support at configure time

2014-02-14T12:42:45Z

Support for dirent.d_type is OS-specific. Previously, we used _DIRENT_HAVE_D_TYPE to detect support for this, but this is apparently a glic-ism (FreeBSD, for example, supports d_type, but does not define this). Since there's no cross-platform way to detect support for dirent.d_type, detect it using a test compile at configure time.
