- Fix string support.
This would make strings a special kind of arrays flagged by the
[string] attribute. Pidl itself would support a couple of extra
attributes for it's own use while being compatible with other IDL
compilers.
Proposed extensions for pidl (to arrays):
[convert(t)] attribute for forcing conversions from CH_UCS2, etc to UTF8
[noheader] attribute -> Indicating the string is not preceded
Implement:
ndr.pm:
- represent a string as an array with length set to "STRING"
- [string] implies is_varying unless noheader is specified.
ndr_parser.pm:
- if [charset()] specified, use instead of the for loops (call ndr_pu{ll,sh}_charset()
- calculate length using helper function if [string] is specified
The various flags for strings would change as follows:
LIBNDR_FLAG_STR_ASCII -> [convert(CH_ASCII)]
LIBNDR_FLAG_STR_LEN4 -> [string]
LIBNDR_FLAG_STR_SIZE4 -> [size_is()] or if needed [conformant]
LIBNDR_FLAG_STR_NOTERM -> array
LIBNDR_FLAG_STR_NULLTERM -> [noheader]
LIBNDR_FLAG_STR_SIZE2 -> uint16 length; [string] char data[length]
LIBNDR_FLAG_STR_BYTESIZE -> uint16 length; [string] char data[length]
LIBNDR_FLAG_STR_FIXLEN32 -> [32]
LIBNDR_FLAG_STR_CONFORMANT -> no longer needed
LIBNDR_FLAG_STR_CHARLEN -> ???
LIBNDR_FLAG_STR_UTF8 -> Nothing (but UCS2 has [convert(CH_UCS2)]
LIBNDR_FLAG_STR_FIXLEN15 -> [15]
- True multiple dimension array / strings in arrays support (closely related to
things specified above)
- compatibility mode for generating MIDL-readable data:
- strip out pidl-specific properties
- convert subcontext() to an array of chars.
