This commit changes the libuv API to return error codes directly rather
than storing them in a loop-global field.
A code snippet like this one:
if (uv_foo(loop) < 0) {
uv_err_t err = uv_last_error(loop);
fprintf(stderr, "%s\n", uv_strerror(err));
}
Should be rewritten like this:
int err = uv_foo(loop);
if (err < 0)
fprintf(stderr, "%s\n", uv_strerror(err));
The rationale for this change is that it should make creating bindings
for other languages a lot easier: dealing with struct return values is
painful with most FFIs and often downright buggy.
Moving around the code for #754 inadvertently introduced a syntax error
in a SunOS-only code path.
The syntax error didn't actually manifest at build time because
the #elif it was wrapped in was, alas, wrong as well.
The documentation in uv.h states that the status argument to the
uv_getaddrinfo() callback is either 0 or -1 but uv-unix actually
passed it the addrinfo error code. Rectify that and add a regression
test.
Fixes#754.
`#if FOO` (where FOO is undefined) is a legal construct in C89 and C99
but gcc, clang and sparse complain loudly about it at higher warning
levels.
Squelch those warnings. Makes the code more consistent as well.
Bert Belder informs me the current approach where a request is immediately
cancelled, is impossible to implement on Windows.
Rework the API to always invoke the "done" callback with an UV_ECANCELED error
code.
