This macro is used to conditionally generate GCC/CLANG __attribute__
declarations if supported.
This allows the compiler to produce warnings on certain incorrect
usages. json_sprintf and json_vsprintf will produce warnings on invalid
format string. Many functions will produce a warning if the result is
unused. Specifically functions which allocate new objects will warn if
the result is ignored as this always results in a memory leak.
* Test equality of different length strings.
* Add tab to json_pack whitespace test.
* Test json_sprintf with empty result and invalid UTF.
* Test json_get_alloc_funcs with NULL arguments.
* Test invalid arguments.
* Add test_chaos to test allocation failure code paths.
* Remove redundant json_is_string checks from json_string_equal and
json_string_copy. Both functions are static and can only be called
with a json string.
Fixes to issues found by test_chaos:
* Fix crash on OOM in pack_unpack.c:read_string().
* Unconditionally free string in string_create upon allocation failure.
Update load.c:parse_value() to reflect this. This resolves a leak on
allocation failure for pack_unpack.c:pack_string() and
value.c:json_sprintf().
Although not visible from CodeCoverage these changes significantly
increase branch coverage. Especially in src/value.c where we previously
covered 67.4% of branches and now cover 96.3% of branches.
The `O` format causes reference counts to increase, but in an error they
are not released. Callers to unpack functions that use the `O` format
should use pointers pre-initialized to NULL so they can safely release
the reference on error.
Also corrected typo which said this was like `O` (itself).
Fixes#135
Users of the "o" format have an expectation that the object reference
will be stolen. Any error causes the collection process to end early.
This patch causes json_pack and related functions to continue scanning
the format and parameters so all references can be stolen to prevent
leaks. This makes no attempt to continue processing if the format
string is broken or missing.
'make check' still passes. Ran test_pack under valgrind and verified
that the leaked reference is fixed. Added a test which uses refcounts
to verify that the reference was correctly stolen after a NULL value
error.
Issue #135
Make parse_object use json_object_set_new_nocheck and make parse_array
use json_array_append_new, remove json_decref from error and success
paths.
Fixes#376
