With this fix, `check-daemon` doesn't need a system-wide running pulseaudio
anymore.
The method to use is to invoke `make check-daemon` under `src/` and it just
works! :)
Since a given property can be single-valued, an array or (in the case of
ints) a range, clients need an API to figure out what type of value a
property holds. This adds such an API. The actual property type
enumeration is kept in the PA_PROP_* namespace and not the
PA_FORMAT_INFO* namespace so that it can later be reused for properties
generically if required.
This adds integer range/array and string array property getters to the
pa_format_info API. Corresponding tests added as well to ensure the code
is valgrind-clean.
The corresponding functions are added to map-file manually for now.
Instead of spilling thousands of lines of output, make check now runs the
test-suite in about 100 lines or so. If running under make check, the output of
tests is reduced. The MAKE_CHECK environment variable is used for this, so that
when running the test manually, the full output is still shown. Furthermore,
pa_log is used consistently instead of printf, so that all test output goes to
stderr by default. Colored output from make check goes to stdout.
When a test program exits with a nonzero return value (or an assert is hit),
the test is regarded as a FAIL.
This makes `make check` a little more useful.
These are not used for anything at this point, but this
makes it easy to add ad-hoc debug prints that show the
memblockq name and to convert between bytes and usecs.
When dealing with proplists passed as modargs, we need the unescaped form
in order to properly deal with quotes (ticks + double quotes). As the previous
code always called pa_unescape() before adding it into the modarg hashmap, this
was impossible.
This modification simply stores two proplists. If the unescaped value
is different from the raw value, we also keep the raw form.
When parsing proplist arguments, we use this raw form and do the unescaping
ourselves when processing it.
This changes the current behaviour which required you to double escape
proplists arguments. This double escape mechanism did allow you to mix
and match what types of quotes you used to delimit the individial
proplist values, but it made the actual data much harder to pass in.
This approach has the drawback that you cannot mix and match the quotes
you use, but this is a very minor issue and IMO pales in comparison to
the general clarity gained.
