Define WIN32_LEAN_AND_MEAN, so that windows.h does not bring in
winsock.h which in turn makes it impossible to #include <winsock2.h>
(at least with MSVC)
"I'm not sure if you'll like my use of the limited broadcast address
for simulating an ENETUNREACH error with a TCP connection, but it's
the best that I could think of. Basically, we want to trigger a
non-EINPROGRESS error in evutil_socket_connect() immediately at the
connect() in order to bring about the assertion in the
evhttp_connection_fail() error handling code."
I took this fix from Tor (commit 1a52e39c22d5, author Nick Mathewson,
Copyright (c) 2007-2011, The Tor Project, Inc.) and adapted it slightly
for libevent.
Apparently, kevent fails gracefully if there is not enough space in its
output events array to report every _event_... but it just dies and returns
-1 if there is not enough space to report every _error_.
There are a couple of possible fixes here. One would to handle -1
returns from kevent better by re-growing the array and retrying... but
that seems a little error prone. Instead, I'm just going to say that
the events array must be large enough to handle all the errors.
This patch also adds a unit test designed to make sure that our
many-events-out code works even if not all the events are added at
once.
9c469db300e1b270a93c6b04c1709ac0f7751136 had started with the conversion
but left out another instance of incorrectly used AM_CFLAGS.
Dave Hart provided the suggestion for this fix.
The main reason for disabling installation is if you're building
libevent as a subpackage for embedding: you want to have your main
package's "make all" build libevent, but you don't want your main
package's "make install" to install libevent.
If the EVHTTP_URI_NONCONFORMANT flag is passed in (which it is when
parsing URIs we get over the wire), then we relax our checks a lot.
Specifically, we do nothing to check for correct characters in the
path, query, and fragment parts of such a URI.
We could do much more here: we could relax our hostname requirements,
deal with spaces differently/better, trap some errors but not others,
etc. But this should solve the worst user-agent compatibility issues
for now; the other issues can wait for a later release.
