[RFC PATCH] Move SHA-1 implementation selection into a header file

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Many developers use functionality in their editors that allows for quick
syntax checks, including warning about questionable constructs.  This
functionality allows rapid development with fewer errors.  However, such
functionality generally does not allow the specification of
project-specific defines or command-line options.

Since the SHA1_HEADER include is not defined in such a case, developers
see spurious errors when using these tools.  Furthermore, while using a
macro as the argument to #include is permitted by C11, it isn't
permitted by C89 and C99, and there are known implementations which
reject it.

Instead of using SHA1_HEADER, create a hash.h header and use #if
and #elif to select the desired header.  Have the Makefile pass an
appropriate option to help the header select the right implementation to
use.

Fixing this makes my development using the vim-ale plugin much nicer.  I
don't care which implementation is selected by default, as long as
*some* implementation is selected by default.

I called this "hash.h" instead of "sha1.h" to allow for future hash
function extensions.  I was worried that some OS might define a hash.h
header as well, but the use of quotation marks instead of angle brackets
should cause it to look in the current directory first.

I also picked "SHA1_*" instead of "*_SHA1" as it makes it easier to find
all the constants.
