* ./configure.ac.in: additional warning flags for GCC.
-Wconversion
Warn if a prototype causes a type conversion that is different from
what would happen to the same argument in the absence of a proto-
type.
-Wsign-compare
Warn when a comparison between signed and unsigned values could
produce an incorrect result when the signed value is converted to
unsigned.
-Wunreachable-code
Warn if the compiler detects that code will never be executed.
-Wdisabled-optimization
Warn if a requested optimization pass is disabled.
See the gcc documentation for more explanations. This triggers a lot of
warnings everywhere, and at first sight they're all worth fixing. Code
quality matters, too, so let's fix'em :)
As for video output 4, this breaks almost everything, but I'll slowly
do what remains to be fixed during the weekend.
Changes in vlc:
===============
* vlc is now a very small program (20 lines) which uses the libvlc API;
it is quite simple for the moment but can be extended in the future.
* interfaces, decoders, video outputs, etc. are now almost the same
objects (yes, I know, this is C++ redone in C) and are structured in
a tree. More about this later, but basically it allows the following
nice features:
- several interfaces
- several playlists with several outputs
- input plugins spawning helper interfaces (will be used for DVD menus)
- anything spawning anything; I swear there are useful uses for this!
* libvlc can be used in other programs; I'm currently writing a Mozilla
plugin for my employer.
Things currently broken:
========================
* most interfaces, most ports
* the playlist handling (almost finished rewriting this though). This means
no file can be played from the GUI, you need to use the commandline. This
also means it segfaults at EOF, when exiting the program, and it sometimes
refuses to open a file when asked to.
* ALL: removed libdvdread from the vlc tree.
* ./acconfig.h: removed this file.
* ./plugins/dvd/dummy_dvdcss.c: merged this file into dvd.c.
* ./AUTHORS: moved a few gentlemen to the libdvdcss AUTHORS file.
* All intf_*Msg functions now write to stderr.
* Implemented a message queue interface plugins can subscribe to.
* Wrote the logger interface plugin. Usage:
vlc -I logger:filename.log
* Lots of fixes in the SPU renderer.
for my nevrotic and destructive pulsions during the next few hours!
* If you want to test vlc, please use the v0_2_92_branch branch.
* Stuff currently working:
- direct to YUV buffer decoding
- non-ugly subtitle blending
- XVideo and SDL video output
* Stuff currently utterly broken:
- aspect ratio
- software rendering (ie, all other video output plugins)
* Additional misc changes:
- Renamed spu_dec to spudec and mad_adec to mad to stay coherent with
other plugins. Also, renamed mpeg to mpeg_system.
- Added jobi to the AUTHORS file.
- Factored code common to vout_x11.c and vout_xvideo.c.
