decided it was a good idea to properly document my thoughts in a comment near
the code that was identified as a possible flaw. A false positive as far as I
can see.
make CURLOPT_PROXYUSERPWD sort of deprecated. The primary motive for adding
these new options is that they have no problems with the colon separator
that the CURLOPT_PROXYUSERPWD option does.
are consecutive and with a 0x20 "distance" to the uppercase letter), since we do
support EBCDIC as well. Thus I replaced the macro with a (larger) switch case.
I better change the function name...
(http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=2154627) which pointed out that libcurl
uses strcasecmp() in multiple places where it causes failures when the
Turkish locale is used. This is because 'i' and 'I' isn't the same letter so
strcasecmp() on those letters are different in Turkish than in English (or
just about all other languages). I thus introduced a totally new internal
function in libcurl (called Curl_ascii_equal) for doing case insentive
comparisons for english-(ascii?) style strings that thus will make "file"
and "FILE" match even if the Turkish locale is selected.
return code. This way, if the precheck command can't be run at all for
whatever reason, it's treated as a precheck failure which causes the
test to be skipped.
(http://curl.haxx.se/bug/view.cgi?id=2155496) pointing out an error case
without a proper human-readable error message. When a read callback returns
a too large value (like when trying to return a negative number) it would
trigger and the generic error message then makes the proplem slightly
different to track down. I've added an error message for this now.
Better disable following warnings when cross-compiling with a gcc older
than 3.0, to avoid warnings from third party system headers:
-Wmissing-declarations
-Wmissing-prototypes
-Wunused
-Wshadow

Highest warning level is double -A, next is single -A.
Due to the big number of warnings these trigger on third
party header files it is impratical for us to use any of
them here. If you want them simply define it in CPPFLAGS.
