I forgot to update the device and parser initialization functions to
store the context pointer into the objects. As a result, the internal
context pointers were always NULL.
The public api is changed to require a context object for all
operations. Because other library objects store the context pointer
internally, only the constructor functions need an explicit context
object as a parameter.
The Windows WSAStartup() and WSACleanup() functions are now called
automatically when opening and closing IrDA sockets. This causes no
problems because these functions are reference counted and can be called
multiple times.
In practice nothing changes because the Uwatec Smart backend already
called these functions for every connection.
Adding the "dc_" namespace prefix (which is of course an abbreviation
for libdivecomputer) should avoid conflicts with other libraries. For
the time being, only the high-level device and parser layers are
changed.
The public header files are moved to a new subdirectory, to separate
the definition of the public interface from the actual implementation.
Using an identical directory layout as the final installation has the
advantage that the example code can be build outside the project tree
without any modifications to the #include statements.
The handshake function is now called internally (even if it doesn't seem
to be required at all), and the version function can be called through
the public api. The format of the version data is changed too.
Using a resizable memory buffer allows to allocate the right amount of
memory inside the backend, avoiding having to know the required buffer
size in advance.
Moved the initialization of the backend pointers to the beginning of the
source file. Without the need for a tentative definition, the library
can be compiled with a C++ compiler.
When necessary, an output parameter is added to provide the size
information. Status codes are strictly reserved for providing status
information only.
