OpenCFLite project and file changes
- CFNetTest\CFTest\win_vs\pre_build.bat; Change VS vars path to call "%VS90COMNTOOLS%\..\..\VC\vcvarsall.bat"
- CFTest.vcproj - change QuickTime libraries path in Linker to $(SolutionDir)..\..\kJams\External\QuickTime SDK\Libraries
- Add explicit direction __WIN32__ to PreprocessorDefinitions so that VS2008 properly reflects disabled code
- mDNSResponder support (dns-sd)
- Add mDNSResponder folder to the include path to OpenCFLite project;
- Add lib file to linker configuration $(ProjectDir)..\..\mDNSResponder\lib\dnssd.lib
File modifications
- CFBase.h - make typedef for Boolean type available to WINDOWS target
- Line added to CFBase.h - "typedef unsigned char Boolean;
- CFRuntime.c - Added two new functions for socket initialization (WinSock requires startup code)
- Added __CFSocketInitialize
- Added __CFSocketInitializeWinSock
- Socket initialization is added to __CFInitialize
- CFSocket ensures initialization on creation. However this is needed so that any other code could reference WinSock API (Ex: AddressLookup)
- CFSocketStream.c - instead of the default need to use the code in CFNetwork (NOTE: This file needs to be references in includes)
- CFUrlAccess.c - merge in new functionality from _CFUrlAccess.c available in CFNetwork distribution
- Added _CFHTTPMessageSendRequest
- Added _CFURLCreateDataAndPropertiesFromResource
- Added _CFURLWriteDataAndPropertiesToResource
- Added _CFURLDestroyResource
- Add support for HTTP URL into the existing function CFURLCreateDataAndPropertiesFromResource
- ForFoundationOnly.h - added HTTP cleanup routines
External libraries changes
- QuickTime ConditionalMacros.h issue fix:
- the file is available in both QuickTime and OpenCFLite, which makes it confusing for the compiler
- if it uses the wrong file, CFTest compilation fails with ~100 errors
- To fix this, change includes <ConditionalMacroh.h> to "ConditionalMacros.h" (File MacTypes.h)
Porting CFNetwork to VS complier
First import thing to note is compiler differences on difference platforms - Visual Studio 2008 supports C90 standard. A newer complier was used to develop CFNetwork. Hence the most important differences:
- All variable definitions must be placed at the beginning of each scope (otherwise it fails with "illegal type as an expression" errors)
- C90 allows structure initialization only by compile time constants (no pointers or even constants pointers to constant data)
- inline support - Visual studio uses keyword __inline (double underscore is required)
- Visual Studio compiler does not allow double class storage specifier such as "static static int var"
