- they are mostly pointless in all major jurisdictions
- many big corporations and projects already don't use them
- saves us from pointless churn
- git keeps history for us
- the year range is kept in COPYING
checksrc is updated to allow non-year using copyright statements
Closes#10205
Add a deprecated attribute to functions and enum values that should not
be used anymore.
This uses a gcc 4.3 dialect, thus is only available for this version of
gcc and newer. Note that the _Pragma() keyword is introduced by C99, but
is available as part of the gcc dialect even when compiling in C89 mode.
It is still possible to disable deprecation at a calling module compile
time by defining CURL_DISABLE_DEPRECATION.
Gcc type checking macros are made aware of possible deprecations.
Some testing support Perl programs are adapted to the extended
declaration syntax.
Several test and unit test C programs intentionally use deprecated
functions/options and are annotated to not generate a warning.
New test 1222 checks the deprecation status in doc and header files.
Closes#9667
This also returns error CURLE_UNSUPPORTED_PROTOCOL rather than
CURLE_BAD_FUNCTION_ARGUMENT when a listed protocol name is not found.
A new schemelen parameter is added to Curl_builtin_scheme() to support
this extended use.
Note that disabled protocols are not recognized anymore.
Tests adapted accordingly.
Closes#9472
Add licensing and copyright information for all files in this repository. This
either happens in the file itself as a comment header or in the file
`.reuse/dep5`.
This commit also adds a Github workflow to check pull requests and adapts
copyright.pl to the changes.
Closes#8869
These two options were only ever used for the OpenSSL backend for
versions before 1.1.0. They were never used for other backends and they
are not used with recent OpenSSL versions. They were never used much by
applications.
The defines RANDOM_FILE and EGD_SOCKET can still be set at build-time
for ancient EOL OpenSSL versions.
Closes#8670
const struct curl_easyoption *curl_easy_option_by_name(const char *name);
const struct curl_easyoption *curl_easy_option_by_id (CURLoption id);
const struct curl_easyoption *
curl_easy_option_next(const struct curl_easyoption *prev);
The purpose is to provide detailed enough information to allow for
example libcurl bindings to get option information at run-time about
what easy options that exist and what arguments they expect.
