apt-pkg: default visibility to hidden

Make map_pointer typesafe

2020-02-24T17:29:07Z

Instead of just using uint32_t, which would allow you to assign e.g. a map_pointer to a map_pointer, use our own smarter struct that has strict type checking. We allow creating a map_pointer from a nullptr, and we allow comparing map_pointer to nullptr, which also deals with comparisons against 0 which are often used, as 0 will be implictly converted to nullptr.

Replace map_pointer_t with map_pointer

2020-02-24T16:08:34Z

This is a first step to a type safe cache, adding typing information everywhere. Next, we'll replace map_pointer implementation with a type safe one.

Allow querying all binaries built by a source package

2020-01-17T11:53:20Z

This adds a simple way to lookup binaries by a source package, but this adds all binaries into one list, even with different source versions. Be careful.

Search in all available description translations

2019-11-25T09:59:38Z

When multiple translations of package descriptions are available, perform search in all of them. It allows using search patterns in any of the configured languages. Previously, only the first available translation was searched. As the result, patterns in e.g. English never matched packages which had their descriptions translated into local language. Closes: #490000

cacheiterators: Cleanup deprecated code

2019-02-26T15:31:20Z

Deprectate buggy/incorrect Rls/PkgFile::IsOk methods

2018-05-11T15:58:46Z

With the advent of compressed files and especially with in-memory post-processed files the simple assumptions made in IsOk are no longer true. Worse, they are at best duplicates of checks performed by the cache generation (and validation) earlier and isn't used in too many places. It is hence best to simply get right of these calls instead of trying to fix them.

convert various c-style casts to C++-style

2017-12-13T22:53:34Z

gcc was warning about ignored type qualifiers for all of them due to the last 'const', so dropping that and converting to static_cast in the process removes the here harmless warning to avoid hidden real issues in them later on. Reported-By: gcc Gbp-Dch: Ignore

cacheiterators: Warn about direct include and don't include pkgcache.h

2017-07-12T12:07:27Z

This adds a warning so existing working code will still work (as it includes pkgcache.h first anyway), but it will know that it's not right to include this file directly.
