    From Deuc¿@VERT to Git commit to main/sbbs/master on Friday, March 22, 2024 11:38:39
    https://gitlab.synchro.net/main/sbbs/-/commit/ffd5385d1510e7da8a547970
    Modified Files:
    src/xpdev/gen_defs.h
    Log Message:
    Use strlcpy() for X?SAFECOPY() macros.

    Also, for DEBUG builds, add a static assertion that
    sizeof(dst) != sizeof(void*) to catch the most common breakage.

    Log Message:
    Use static_assert() macro instead of _Static_assert keyword

    More compatible with C++ that way.

    Log Message:
    include genwrap.h at the end of gen_defs.h for strlcpy()/strlcat().

    This whole library is starting to get crufty and could use a room
    at a hackathon.

    https://gitlab.synchro.net/main/sbbs/-/commit/59a695825a13d6898fb804a0
    Modified Files:
    src/xpdev/gen_defs.h
    Log Message:
    Don't rely on locale for isspace()

    With truncsp() and SKIP_WHITESPACE() dominating runtime for INI
    parsing now, the locale lookups needed for every isspace() call
    have become significant. Since we likely don't actually want isspace()
    to use the local, expand the C locale whitespace table directly.

    This provides a 20% performance boost to INI parsing when using
    the FastParse calls (much smaller using other parsing functions)
    and is likely to improve various other whitespace-heavy things.

    Modified Files:
    src/xpdev/gen_defs.h
    Log Message:
    inttypes.h and stdint.h are part of C99 and C++17

    So we can assume the exist if we're using a C99 or newer compiler.
    stdint.h is in C++11 (though inttypes.h isn't)

    This has been the most painful bit of xpdev for a while now.
