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.
!502 made the dell1600n_net backend return GOOD status when local
devices are requested. This is problematic since in that case
the caller may assume that the passed device list has been populated.
However, this is not the case for this backend, since the device list
is not modified in any way in that case. The caller trying to access
the device list may lead to undesired consequences. Fix that by
returning an empty list if 'local_only' is true.
Certain backends do network scans even if the 'local_only'
parameter for 'sane_get_devices()' is true. Fix that.
Changes:
1. Modify 'sanei_configure_attach()' so that backend specific
data may be passed to the 'attach()' function.
2. Use this in certain backends to pass the value of the
'local_only' parameter so that network related activities
are only carried out when the value is false.
