This will let us put two controls side by side (e.g. in disjoint columns of a multi-col layout) and indicate that instead of the default behaviour of aligning their top edges, their centreline (or, even better if available, font baseline) should be aligned. NFC: nothing uses this yet.

The number of people has been steadily increasing who read our source code with an editor that thinks tab stops are 4 spaces apart, as opposed to the traditional tty-derived 8 that the PuTTY code expects. So I've been wondering for ages about just fixing it, and switching to a spaces-only policy throughout the code. And I recently found out about 'git blame -w', which should make this change not too disruptive for the purposes of source-control archaeology; so perhaps now is the time. While I'm at it, I've also taken the opportunity to remove all the trailing spaces from source lines (on the basis that git dislikes them, and is the only thing that seems to have a strong opinion one way or the other). Apologies to anyone downstream of this code who has complicated patch sets to rebase past this change. I don't intend it to be needed again.

The idea of these is that they centralise the common idiom along the lines of if (logical_array_len >= physical_array_size) { physical_array_size = logical_array_len * 5 / 4 + 256; array = sresize(array, physical_array_size, ElementType); } which happens at a zillion call sites throughout this code base, with different random choices of the geometric factor and additive constant, sometimes forgetting them completely, and generally doing a lot of repeated work. The new macro sgrowarray(array,size,n) has the semantics: here are the array pointer and its physical size for you to modify, now please ensure that the nth element exists, so I can write into it. And sgrowarrayn(array,size,n,m) is the same except that it ensures that the array has size at least n+m (so sgrowarray is just the special case where m=1). Now that this is a single centralised implementation that will be used everywhere, I've also gone to more effort in the implementation, with careful overflow checks that would have been painful to put at all the previous call sites. This commit also switches over every use of sresize(), apart from a few where I really didn't think it would gain anything. A consequence of that is that a lot of array-size variables have to have their types changed to size_t, because the macros require that (they address-take the size to pass to the underlying function).

My normal habit these days, in new code, is to treat int and bool as _almost_ completely separate types. I'm still willing to use C's implicit test for zero on an integer (e.g. 'if (!blob.len)' is fine, no need to spell it out as blob.len != 0), but generally, if a variable is going to be conceptually a boolean, I like to declare it bool and assign to it using 'true' or 'false' rather than 0 or 1. PuTTY is an exception, because it predates the C99 bool, and I've stuck to its existing coding style even when adding new code to it. But it's been annoying me more and more, so now that I've decided C99 bool is an acceptable thing to require from our toolchain in the first place, here's a quite thorough trawl through the source doing 'boolification'. Many variables and function parameters are now typed as bool rather than int; many assignments of 0 or 1 to those variables are now spelled 'true' or 'false'. I managed this thorough conversion with the help of a custom clang plugin that I wrote to trawl the AST and apply heuristics to point out where things might want changing. So I've even managed to do a decent job on parts of the code I haven't looked at in years! To make the plugin's work easier, I pushed platform front ends generally in the direction of using standard 'bool' in preference to platform-specific boolean types like Windows BOOL or GTK's gboolean; I've left the platform booleans in places they _have_ to be for the platform APIs to work right, but variables only used by my own code have been converted wherever I found them. In a few places there are int values that look very like booleans in _most_ of the places they're used, but have a rarely-used third value, or a distinction between different nonzero values that most users don't care about. In these cases, I've _removed_ uses of 'true' and 'false' for the return values, to emphasise that there's something more subtle going on than a simple boolean answer: - the 'multisel' field in dialog.h's list box structure, for which the GTK front end in particular recognises a difference between 1 and 2 but nearly everything else treats as boolean - the 'urgent' parameter to plug_receive, where 1 vs 2 tells you something about the specific location of the urgent pointer, but most clients only care about 0 vs 'something nonzero' - the return value of wc_match, where -1 indicates a syntax error in the wildcard. - the return values from SSH-1 RSA-key loading functions, which use -1 for 'wrong passphrase' and 0 for all other failures (so any caller which already knows it's not loading an _encrypted private_ key can treat them as boolean) - term->esc_query, and the 'query' parameter in toggle_mode in terminal.c, which _usually_ hold 0 for ESC[123h or 1 for ESC[?123h, but can also hold -1 for some other intervening character that we don't support. In a few places there's an integer that I haven't turned into a bool even though it really _can_ only take values 0 or 1 (and, as above, tried to make the call sites consistent in not calling those values true and false), on the grounds that I thought it would make it more confusing to imply that the 0 value was in some sense 'negative' or bad and the 1 positive or good: - the return value of plug_accepting uses the POSIXish convention of 0=success and nonzero=error; I think if I made it bool then I'd also want to reverse its sense, and that's a job for a separate piece of work. - the 'screen' parameter to lineptr() in terminal.c, where 0 and 1 represent the default and alternate screens. There's no obvious reason why one of those should be considered 'true' or 'positive' or 'success' - they're just indices - so I've left it as int. ssh_scp_recv had particularly confusing semantics for its previous int return value: its call sites used '<= 0' to check for error, but it never actually returned a negative number, just 0 or 1. Now the function and its call sites agree that it's a bool. In a couple of places I've renamed variables called 'ret', because I don't like that name any more - it's unclear whether it means the return value (in preparation) for the _containing_ function or the return value received from a subroutine call, and occasionally I've accidentally used the same variable for both and introduced a bug. So where one of those got in my way, I've renamed it to 'toret' or 'retd' (the latter short for 'returned') in line with my usual modern practice, but I haven't done a thorough job of finding all of them. Finally, one amusing side effect of doing this is that I've had to separate quite a few chained assignments. It used to be perfectly fine to write 'a = b = c = TRUE' when a,b,c were int and TRUE was just a the 'true' defined by stdbool.h, that idiom provokes a warning from gcc: 'suggest parentheses around assignment used as truth value'!

This commit includes <stdbool.h> from defs.h and deletes my traditional definitions of TRUE and FALSE, but other than that, it's a 100% mechanical search-and-replace transforming all uses of TRUE and FALSE into the C99-standardised lowercase spellings. No actual types are changed in this commit; that will come next. This is just getting the noise out of the way, so that subsequent commits can have a higher proportion of signal.

Having found a lot of unfixed constness issues in recent development, I thought perhaps it was time to get proactive, so I compiled the whole codebase with -Wwrite-strings. That turned up a huge load of const problems, which I've fixed in this commit: the Unix build now goes cleanly through with -Wwrite-strings, and the Windows build is as close as I could get it (there are some lingering issues due to occasional Windows API functions like AcquireCredentialsHandle not having the right constness). Notable fallout beyond the purely mechanical changing of types: - the stuff saved by cmdline_save_param() is now explicitly dupstr()ed, and freed in cmdline_run_saved. - I couldn't make both string arguments to cmdline_process_param() const, because it intentionally writes to one of them in the case where it's the argument to -pw (in the vain hope of being at least slightly friendly to 'ps'), so elsewhere I had to temporarily dupstr() something for the sake of passing it to that function - I had to invent a silly parallel version of const_cmp() so I could pass const string literals in to lookup functions. - stripslashes() in pscp.c and psftp.c has the annoying strchr nature

I'm about to add a list box which expects to contain some very long but uninformative strings, and which is also quite vertically squashed so there's not much room for a horizontal scroll bar to appear in it. So here's an option in the list box specification structure which causes the constructed GTKTreeView to use the 'ellipsize' option for all its cell renderers, i.e. too-long strings are truncated with an ellipsis. Windows needs no change, because its list boxes already work this way. [originally from svn r10219]

'Config' in putty.h, which stores all PuTTY's settings and includes an arbitrary length limit on every single one of those settings which is stored in string form. In place of it is 'Conf', an opaque data type everywhere outside the new file conf.c, which stores a list of (key, value) pairs in which every key contains an integer identifying a configuration setting, and for some of those integers the key also contains extra parts (so that, for instance, CONF_environmt is a string-to-string mapping). Everywhere that a Config was previously used, a Conf is now; everywhere there was a Config structure copy, conf_copy() is called; every lookup, adjustment, load and save operation on a Config has been rewritten; and there's a mechanism for serialising a Conf into a binary blob and back for use with Duplicate Session. User-visible effects of this change _should_ be minimal, though I don't doubt I've introduced one or two bugs here and there which will eventually be found. The _intended_ visible effects of this change are that all arbitrary limits on configuration strings and lists (e.g. limit on number of port forwardings) should now disappear; that list boxes in the configuration will now be displayed in a sorted order rather than the arbitrary order in which they were added to the list (since the underlying data structure is now a sorted tree234 rather than an ad-hoc comma-separated string); and one more specific change, which is that local and dynamic port forwardings on the same port number are now mutually exclusive in the configuration (putting 'D' in the key rather than the value was a mistake in the first place). One other reorganisation as a result of this is that I've moved all the dialog.c standard handlers (dlg_stdeditbox_handler and friends) out into config.c, because I can't really justify calling them generic any more. When they took a pointer to an arbitrary structure type and the offset of a field within that structure, they were independent of whether that structure was a Config or something completely different, but now they really do expect to talk to a Conf, which can _only_ be used for PuTTY configuration, so I've renamed them all things like conf_editbox_handler and moved them out of the nominally independent dialog-box management module into the PuTTY-specific config.c.

malloc functions, which automatically cast to the same type they're allocating the size of. Should prevent any future errors involving mallocing the size of the wrong structure type, and will also make life easier if we ever need to turn the PuTTY core code from real C into C++-friendly C. I haven't touched the Mac frontend in this checkin because I couldn't compile or test it. [originally from svn r3014]

Buttons now have an `iscancel' flag to go with `isdefault'; dlg_last_focused() now explicitly passes the control it _doesn't_ care about (`I want the last control that had focus and isn't this one'); and in the GTK implementation, various fixes have happened, notably including arrow keys working sensibly in list boxes and the treeview and short font aliases being expanded correctly to initialise the font selectors.

to pieces, and put it back together in a new table-driven form. config.c sets up a data structure describing most of the config box; wincfg.c adds in the Windows-specific options (so that config.c can also form the basis for Mac and Unix config boxes). Then winctrls.c contains a shiny new layout engine which consumes that data structure, and windlg.c passes all WM_COMMAND and similar messages to a driver alongside that layout engine. In the process I've sorted out nicer-looking panel titles and finally fixed the list-boxes-are- never-the-right-size bug (turned out to be Windows's fault, of course). I _believe_ it should do everything the old config box did, including context help. Now everyone has to test it thoroughly... [originally from svn r2908]
