Adjust the string to boolean conversion for an edge case. Accept empty
text (either NULL or empty strings) to mean true instead of false.
This behaviour is more useful from the user's point of view, when the
option's name alone will enable a feature, and an explicit "option=yes"
specification is not strictly necessary. All calling applications in
mainline already implemented this semantics.
The output was wrong for all frequencies but 1 Hz, 1 kHz, 1 MHz and 1 GHz.
With this changes, the output may still be off due to rounding, but will
be correct as to the shown accuracy.
The method accepts strings with numbers in scientific or normal notation,
e.g. -1.25 or 3.37e-6. The numeric range is limited by the sr_rational
range, i.e +-9.2e18, resolution is ~19 digits.
Since Autoconf places some important feature flags only into the
configuration header, it is necessary to include it globally to
guarantee a consistent build.
Move the include flags for files in the source tree from
configure.ac to Makefile.am where they belong. Also use
AM_CPPFLAGS instead of CFLAGS/CXXFLAGS to make sure the
files in the build/source tree are always picked up first.
Also, remove the include/libsigrok sub-directory from the
search path, thereby making the <libsigrok/> prefix mandatory
when building libsigrok itself. This matches the convention
already imposed on users of the library.
Use g_malloc0() for small allocations and assume they always
succeed. Simplify error handling in a few places accordingly.
Don't always sanity-check parameters for non-public (SR_PRIV)
functions, we require the developers to invoke them correctly.
This allows further error handling simplifications.
