other. Ensure headers in include/ can be included in any order
(except for econfig-spec.h, which is special). New header types.h to
help avoid inclusion cycles. Sort include directives. Remove some
superflous includes.
and Autoconf macros that come with Automake. It supports multiple
separate builds of the same source tree, and updates dependencies
automatically. Targets info, html, install, install-html, uninstall
and dist are not yet implemented.
System configuration is now automatic. Previously, you had to choose
one of several canned system configurations, defined in Make.sysdefs.
Currently, system configuration always uses UCONTEXT for LWP, and
chooses LWP only if its requirements are met.
Feature configuration changed: instead of editing build.conf (further
processed by doconfig), you pass arguments to configure. Note that
build.conf settings that can be overridden in econfig have no
configure equivalent; just edit econfig instead.
Because generated headers complicate makefiles, fold gamesdef.h into
its users: path.c and ipglob.c become path.c.in and ipglob.c.in,
constants.c, vers.c, options.h simply hardcode defaults (most of them
are run-time configurable).
Call the client empire instead of emp_client. This matches what the
old standalone build did.
thread entrypoints:
(lwpSelect, shutdown_sequence): Parameters didn't match thread entry
point prototype.
(lwpEntryPoint): Arguments didn't match thread entry point prototype.
Change linkage of functions without prototype declaration to static
where possible.
Remove some superflous declarations, replace others by suitable
includes.
effect. Replace calls by struct assignment where possible. Replace
clear buffer, copy string to buffer by strncpy(). Use assignment to
clear when that's clearer. Replace overlapping copy through bounce
buffer by memmove(). Replace rest by standard memset() and memcpy().
Also use sizeof() instead of literal array sizes for robustness, and
instead of symbolic array sizes for clarity.
