When creating the inner iterator, make sure it points into the same
vector as the outer iterator. Otherwise, attempts to reset the iterator
wind up causing it to read out-of-bounds.
Fixes#199.
- fix error messages that referred to the wrong functions.
- parse_key(): remove "detail::" from the only error message that had
it, for consistency with the other error messages in that function
The 'result' class has unwrap() and unwrap_err() member functions
overloaded for const lvalue and rvalue *this to avoid an unnecessarily
copying the to-be unwrapped object of its containing object is going to
be discarded anyway. Alas, the parse() function toml/parser.hpp file
stored the parse result in a local `const` variable so, although the
unwrap call would have been the last use of the object in each case, the
unnecessary copy would still be made. This patch removes the `const`
and adds a std::move() to actually benefit from the already implemented
optimization.
This patch addresses a static analysis issue reported by Cppcheck 2.9
where several member functions of the toml::discard_comment class
defined in the toml/comments.hpp header were implemented to deliberately
dereference the null pointer returned unconditionally by the
always-empty container's data() member function. This behavior wasn't
technically wrong because those functions all have as precondition that
the container is non-empty so they must never be called on an instance
of toml::discard_comment but we can still be more helpful without
adversely affecting code generation. Instead of dereferencing the null
pointer, this patch has these functions call an inline private helper
function which is defined to invoke __builtin_unreachable() if available
"and then" throw an exception with a helpful error message. Even at the
-O1 level, GCC will optimize the code under the assumption that the
function will never be called (i.e. no assembly is emitted), making
failure to ensure this undefined behavior exactly as if the null pointer
had been dereferenced. However, static analysis will now understand the
programmer's intent and remain silent. Furthermore, when using the -O0
or -Og levels, GCC won't optimize under this assumption so the exception
will be thrown and might be helpful for debugging. Compilers that don't
have __builtin_unreachable() won't get any help in determining that the
function must not be called and will have to figure this out by
analyzing the calling code -- which really shouldn't exist in the first
place anyway as the whole point is that these functions must not be
called.
This patch addresses a static analysis issue reported by Cppcheck 2.9
where an assertion in the toml/region.hpp header would compare two
container's (that are known to be of type std::vector<char>) begin() and
end() iterators in order to verify that they are the same. This
assertion either passes or invokes undefined behavior. Which isn't
technically wrong because calling code must always ensure that
preconditions are met and assertions therefore pass anyway but it does
make the value that is added by having the assertion in the first place
marginal. Fortunately, the assertion was easy to rewrite: Just compare
the container's address itself. This is well-defined regardless of
whether the assertion will pass or fail.
This patch addresses a static analysis issue reported by Cppcheck 2.9
where several classes in the toml/datetime.hpp header explicitly default
all their special member functions, including the default constructor,
but don't provide initializers for their data members. This might or
might not have caused any observable surprising behavior but I agree
with Cppcheck on this one in that an explicitly defaulted default
constructor should be expected to initialize all data members. So let's
do that.
The fstream classes are notorious for their non-existent error handling.
This adds a C-style fILE * IO (fopen(), etc.) alternative interface, so
that if a user needs reliable error handling, they can use that, albeit
more inconvenient, but more robust approach.
Instead of static_cast calls that convert int to char, literals of type
char are now used directly with the value encoded via escape sequence.
The benefits are:
- code without static_cast is much more compact and expresses intent
better
- fixed value truncation warning on some compilers (e.g. C4309 on Visual
Studio 2017)
Taking this parameter by const reference forces us to copy it (because
we know we're going to store it). Taking it by r-value reference would
suggest that we _might_ take ownership over it and would also force the
user to make a copy if they wish to retain the original value.
Taking this parameter by value however clearly gives us ownership of its
content without forcing a copy if it's implicit conversion from
`const char*` or explicitly handed over to us by the user via std::move.
current code mistakenly allows the following TOML file.
```toml
a.b = 42 # table "a" is defined here, implicitly
a = {c = 3.14} # table "a" is overwritten here
```
But we need to allow the following (structually similar) TOML file.
```toml
a.b = 42 # table "a" is defined here, implicitly
a.c = 3.14 # table "a" is merged with {c = 3.14}
```
To distinguish those, we check whether the current table is defined as
an inline table or via dotted key. If the table we are inserting is
defined via dotted key, we accept it and merge the table. If the table
being inserted is defined as an inline table, then we report an error.
As described in issue #173, this warning is raised on various platforms
and in various build types. For example, g++ 11 in release mode will
cause this warning to be raised. This change fixes this warning.
