(CFLAGS), builds/compiler/gcc.mk (CFLAGS): Remove
-fno-strict-aliasing.
Say you have `(Foo*)x' and want to assign, pass, or return it as
`(Bar*)'. If you simply say `x' or `(Bar*)x', then the C compiler
would warn you that type casting incompatible pointer types breaks
strict-aliasing. The solution is to cast to `(void*)' instead which
is the generic pointer type, so the compiler knows that it should
make no strict-aliasing assumption on `x'. But the problem with
`(void*)x' is that seems like in C++, unlike C, `void*' is not a
generic pointer type and assigning `void*' to `Bar*' without a cast
causes an error. The solution is to cast to `Bar*' too, with
`(Bar*)(void*)x' as the result -- this is what the patch does.
* include/freetype/cache/ftccache.h (FTC_CACHE_LOOKUP_CMP),
include/freetype/cache/ftcmru.h (FTC_MRULIST_LOOKUP_CMP): Remove
cast on lvalue, use a temporary pointer instead.
Cast temporarily to (void*) to not break strict aliasing.
* include/freetype/internal/ftmemory.h (FT_MEM_ALLOC,
FT_MEM_REALLOC, FT_MEM_QALLOC, FT_MEM_QREALLOC, FT_MEM_FREE),
src/base/ftglyph.c (FT_Glyph_To_Bitmap): Cast temporarily to (void*)
to not break strict aliasing.
* src/base/ftinit.c (FT_USE_MODULE): Fix wrong type information.
* builds/unix/configure.ac (XX_CFLAGS): Remove -fno-strict-aliasing.
* src/sfnt/rules.mk (SFNT_DRV_SRC): Don't include ttsbit0.c --
it is currently loaded from ttsbit.c.
Other formatting.
. In all makefiles `/' is used as the path separator. The
conversion to the real path separators is done as late as
possible using $(subst ...).
. $(HOSTSEP) no longer exists. Now, $(SEP) gives the path separator
for the operating system, and the new $(COMPILER_SEP) the path
separator for the compiler tools.
. $(BUILD) has been renamed to $(BUILD_DIR). In general, all
directory variables end with `_DIR'. The variants ending in `_'
(like `BASE_' have been removed).
The following ChangeLog entries only describe changes which are
not related to the redesign.
* builds/beos/beos-def.mk (BUILD_DIR): Fix typo.
* builds/compiler/watcom.mk (LINK_LIBRARY): Fix linker call to avoid
overlong arguments as suggested by J. Ali Harlow
<ali@avrc.city.ac.uk>.
* builds/dos/dos-wat.mk: New file.
* builds/freetype.mk (FREETYPE_H): Include header files from the
`devel' subdirectory.
* builds/os2/os2-dev.mk, builds/unix/unixddef.mk,
builds/unix/unixddef.mk, builds/win32/w32-bccd.mk,
builds/win32/w32-dev.mk (BUILD_DIR): Fix path.
* builds/unix/configure.ac, builds/unic/configure: Updated.
* builds/unix/unix-def.in (DISTCLEAN): Add `freetype2.pc'.
* devel/ftoption.h: Updated.
the structure of similar makefiles.
* builds/dos/*.mk: Ditto.
* builds/ansi/*.mk: Ditto.
* builds/win32/win32-def.mk (BUILD): Fix typo.
* builds/compiler/*.mk (CLEAN_LIBRARY): Don't use NO_OUTPUT.
This is already used in the link_*.mk files.
* src/*/Jamfile: Slight changes to make files more cryptic.
