The template avoids the need to cast to and from void*, and adds flexibility to
the targeted function's signature.
test-stuff.h defines a macro, "failure" which is used as an identifier
in the standard IO library, so I moved any inclusion of test-stuff.h to
the last include position so that "failure" wouldn't be defined before
the IO library was included.
Since Account.c is now Account.cpp, the function signatures look a bit
different internally. The tests rely on function signatures in error
messages. Instead of trying to figure out what the exact
function signature might be, I use a substring matching strategy to
ensure that the correct error was issued.
Where possible in the Python SWIG code use the builtin SWIG conversion
code over custom code. This ensures appropriate overflow/type checking.
With this I have enabled GncNumeric from longs and tested for correct
overflow handling.
Note: This could be extended to GUILE but I am not familiar enought to
safely enable this.
I.e., remove the shell invocation and with it the need to set the shebang.
Surprisingly this required some build-system modifications particularly
for cmake in order to correctly set the environment.
This will avoid a ninja-build from picking up a config.h generated by the autotools build
(in the root build directory). Picking up the wrong config.h may lead to all kinds of
subtle issues if the autotools run was done with different options than the cmake run.
While I myself asked for it to be retained a couple of years back
I now believe it really makes no sense to keep on carrying
a completely outdated rpm spec file around. This should not
be part of the source and properly up to date and maintained
rpm spec files can be found in each rpm based distro that ships
gnucash.
It is split into
- /libgnucash (for the non-gui bits)
- /gnucash (for the gui)
- /common (misc source files used by both)
- /bindings (currently only holds python bindings)
This is the first step in restructuring the code. It will need much
more fine tuning later on.
