These were intended to suppress GCC warnings about unused variables.
However, this leads to different warnings from Clang instead.
Use another approach that suppresses warnings from both compilers.
Backends use a mixture of SANE_CURRENT_{MAJOR | MINOR} and V_{MAJOR |
MINOR} with all kind of permutations. I was confused by this and one
comment in pieusb.c tells me I was not alone. Some items in old
changelogs suggest to use the SANE_CURRENT_ macros in backends, so let's
switch to do that with the exception of net.c and dll.c. Done with:
$ find backend -name '*.[ch]' | xargs sed -i '/nearly every/ ! { s/\<V_M/SANE_CURRENT_M/g }'
$ git checkout backend/net.c backend/dll.c
And manually removing the comment from pieusb.c. Everything still builds
fine.
With the exception of use in three quotes as well as our inlcuded copy
of the GPL, all use of the Free Software Foundation's postal address
has been removed.
Re #320.
Not all pthreads implementations use an integer type for pthread_t.
As a matter of fact, POSIX has explicitly withdrawn the requirement
that it must be an arithmatic type.
The musl C library uses a `struct __pthread *` which triggered the
warnings. As of this change, sanei_thread.h works around this by
providing two new macros to help keep this issue out of sight. All
backends have been changed to use these macros.
Source code was inconsistent on how they were referencing
include files in include/sane. In certain cases, sane/sane.h
and sane/saneopts.h was really including external copies (with
some preprocessor implementations anyways).
Global replace of u_int??_t with C9x standard based uintxx_t
in order to remove some tricky and overlapping portability logic
from acinclude.m4 and leave it in only m4/stdint.m4.
to copy it over and over again. Changed header inclusion order in backend
files to include backend.h after sanei_backend.h. Based on a patch from stef
<stef-listes@wanadoo.fr>.
