At the moment, building WeeChat triggers several thousand -Wstrict-prototypes
diagnostics. This is due to its source code using an empty argument list for
functions and function pointers that take no arguments, instead of explicitly
declaring that they take no arguments by using a void list.
This commit replaces all empty argument lists with a void list.
Note that Ruby's headers also suffer the same problem, which WeeChat can't
do anything to fix. Thus, building WeeChat with the Ruby plugin enabled
will still issue approximately 30 such diagnostics.
This pointer is the first argument received by callbacks, and the
existing argument "data" is now automatically freed by WeeChat when the
object containing the callback is removed.
With this new pointer, the linked list of callbacks in scripts has been
removed. This will improve speed of scripts (using a lot of hooks),
reduce memory used by scripts and reduce time to unload scripts.
Following functions are affected in the C API:
* exec_on_files
* config_new
* config_new_section
* config_new_option
* hook_command
* hook_command_run
* hook_timer
* hook_fd
* hook_process
* hook_process_hashtable
* hook_connect
* hook_print
* hook_signal
* hook_hsignal
* hook_config
* hook_completion
* hook_modifier
* hook_info
* hook_info_hashtable
* hook_infolist
* hook_hdata
* hook_focus
* unhook_all_plugin
* buffer_new
* bar_item_new
* upgrade_new
* upgrade_read
New features:
- key alt-j alt-r is reintroduced to open IRC raw buffer
- command "/server raw" opens IRC raw buffer
- new option irc.look.raw_messages, which is number of lines to keep in memory
to display when user will open raw buffer (to see last messages received before
opening raw buffer)
Added group support for nicklist (with subgroups).
Partial changes in IRC protocol functions (new arguments with argv and argv_eol).
Fixed some bugs:
- nicklist in plugins API
- problem in main loop with select() when SIGWINCH is received (terminal resize)
- bug in string explode function
- bug in infobar countdown.
