Don't call g_error(), which will abort the process and dump core.
This patch does not affect all the config_get_X() functions. These
need some more refactoring.
The "group" configuration option is similar to "user" as it
sets user set what group MPD shall run as. With "user"
option, MPD changed GID to the GID of the user, however,
more control could be desired.
Moreover, the patch changes the way of checking whether no
setuid(2)/setgid(2) is required -- previously user names
were compered, now UID and GIDs are compered (ie. the one we
already have (getuid(2)/getgid(2)) with the one we want to
change to).
A recent change to the boolean parser introduced a bug: instead of
using the block_param's value with get_bool(), we passed param->value
(which is always NULL in this case).
Instead of returning an artificial three-state integer, return a
"success" value and put the boolean value into a "bool" pointer.
That's a little bit more overhead, but an API which looks more
natural.
This updates the copyright header to all be the same, which is
pretty much an update of where to mail request for a copy of the GPL
and the years of the MPD project. This also puts all committers under
'The Music Player Project' umbrella. These entries should go
individually in the AUTHORS file, for consistancy.
Return the default value in the conf_get_block_*() functions when
param==NULL was passed.
This simplifies a lot of code, because all initialization can be done
in one code path, regardless whether configuration is present.
"Stickers" are pieces of information attached to existing MPD objects
(e.g. song files, directories, albums). Clients can create arbitrary
name/value pairs. MPD itself does not assume any special meaning in
them.
The configuration options "follow_outside_symlinks" and
"follow_inside_symlinks" let the user control whether MPD should
follow symbolic links in the music directory.
[mk: converted variables to "bool"; moved configuration to
update_global_init()]
In contrast to, getBoolConfigParam(), config_get_bool() properly
returns a "bool" value. In case of "unset", it returns the default
value provided by the caller.
[ew: cleaned up the dirty union hack a bit]
