I'm not aware of any platforms where this is a problem in practice, but
it's definitely nonportable and doesn't hurt to document it.
I wonder about CHERI....
GTK lost it's '+' suffix back in 2019, according to
<https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gtk-devel-list/2019-February/msg00000.html>
This commit can be re-generated with:
git grep -l GTK+ \
| grep -v -e ^NEWS -e ^glib/tests/collate.c \
| xargs sed -i 's/GTK+/GTK/g'
Most of the changes are in comments and documentation.
We have fallback in places for GNU's variadic arguments in macros, and
for static inline functions with variadic arguments as an fallback of
last resort, but going forward we are going to depend on `__VA_ARGS__`
for macros that cannot be re-implemented using a static inline function.
Fixes: #2681
These files are Markdown-ified versions of the following wiki pages:
* https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/GLib/CompilerRequirements
* https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/GLib/SupportedPlatforms
Keeping the files in version control with the rest of the documentation
means they should be easier to find, and easier to remember to keep up
to date.
They have not been modified other than to change to Markdown and tweak
the formatting. Content updates to them will be done in future commits.
