Just recently, I started using g_return_val_if_fail as a brief assertion
checker. It'll also exit the function with a specified return value.
But actually this introduces some weird behavior. It's configurable by
environment variables and it'll print out a log message, if the
expression didn't validate properly. But some of these assertions are
actually ment to be silent.
Using a simple macro makes it simple to structure the assertions and its
return values in a block at the start of a function or anywhere else.
The xctx color field is a full duplicate of the settings logic.
Only logic included in xctx color fields, are the frame colors, which
fall back to the global frame setting. So, this required to handle it
directly in settings.c
Parsing the arguments with g_shell_parse_argv is more safe than just
splitting it by spaces. Also this allows to pass values with spaces to
the browser command.
* Move mouse_left/middle/right_click to global section
* Match the enum value style
* Ignore unknow mouse event
* Split copy-paste code into a function
* Fix typo
Change the value of geometry in settings from an unparsed string to a
struct containing the properly parsed geometry info. Since we depend on
X11 for geometry parsing this (unfortunately) introduces an X11
dependency on the settings module, this can only be resolved if we
implement our own parsing.
time(NULL) is vulnerable against timeshifts by NTP, timezones,...
g_get_monotonic_time() is not, but counts its in microseconds with the
gint64 datatype. To prevent any conversion bugs, all internal
timeformats are now using a gint64 and only get converted during import
or export (DBus notification arrives, configuration reading, age
threshold display).
It's hard to trace back, which methods in option parser require freeing
the result and which prohibit it. Marking all non-freeable values as
const lets this problem solve the compiler.
Get the default value for ellipsize from config.h, instead of
setting it in two different places (in case it is not set, and in
case its value is invalid).
