Replace for loops in makefiles with proper dependencies. Parallel
make can now span across directories. Also, make -k and make -q work
properly.
GNU make 3.80 or newer is now required.
Use bool as type for booleans instead of int.
Do not implicitely cast size_t to int.
Make the compiler stop complaining about unused variables by adding an empty statement.
Replace leftover instances of _() by ecpg_gettext(), the latter being the
correct way to refer to the library's message catalog, instead of the one of
the program using the library.
Drop NLS support for ecpg_log(), which is a debugging instrument similar to
elog() in the backend.
We cannot support NLS in the ecpg compatlib, because that requires
ecpg_gettext, which is in ecpglib, which is not a dependency of compatlib. It
doesn't seem worthwhile to worry about this, since the only translatable
string is "out of memory", and gettext probably won't be able to do much
without memory either.
Adjust messages to project style.
modules are built. Foremost, it creates a solid distinction between these two
types of targets based on what had already been implemented and duplicated in
ad hoc ways before. Specifically,
- Dynamically loadable modules no longer get a soname. The numbers previously
set in the makefiles were dummy numbers anyway, and the presence of a soname
upset a few packaging tools, so it is nicer not to have one.
- The cumbersome detour taken on installation (build a libfoo.so.0.0.0 and
then override the rule to install foo.so instead) is removed.
- Lots of duplicated code simplified.
- Really prepare statements
- Added more regression tests
- Added auto-prepare mode
- Use '$n' for positional variables, '?' is still possible via ecpg option
- Cleaned up the sources a little bit
