For example, consider cases where we want to propagate errors only in
specific instances:
auto result = read_data(); // something like ErrorOr<ByteBuffer>
if (result.is_error() && result.error().code() != EINTR)
continue;
auto bytes = TRY(result);
The TRY invocation will currently copy the byte buffer when the
expression (in this case, just a local variable) is stored into
_temporary_result.
This patch binds the expression to a reference to prevent such copies.
In less trival invocations (such as TRY(some_function()), this will
incur only temporary lifetime extensions, i.e. no functional change.
If USING_AK_GLOBALLY is not defined, the name IsLvalueReference might
not be available in the global namespace. Follow the pattern established
in LibTest to fully qualify AK types in macros to avoid this problem.
These are formatters that can only be used with debug print
functions, such as dbgln(). Currently this is limited to
Formatter<ErrorOr<T>>. With this you can still debug log ErrorOr
values (good for debugging), but trying to use them in any
String::formatted() call will fail (which prevents .to_string()
errors with the new failable strings being ignored).
You make a formatter debug only by adding a constexpr method like:
static constexpr bool is_debug_only() { return true; }
We have a new, improved string type coming up in AK (OOM aware, no null
state), and while it's going to use UTF-8, the name UTF8String is a
mouthful - so let's free up the String name by renaming the existing
class.
Making the old one have an annoying name will hopefully also help with
quick adoption :^)
Frames will now be queued for retrieval by the user of the decoder.
When the end of the current queue is reached, a DecoderError of
category NeedsMoreInput will be emitted, allowing the caller to react
by displaying what was previously retrieved for sending more samples.
This adds a struct called CodingIndependentCodePoints and related enums
that are used by video codecs to define its color space that frames
must be converted from when displaying a video.
Pre-multiplied matrices and lookup tables are stored to avoid most of
the floating point division and exponentiation in the conversion.
The first keyframe of the test video can be decoded with these changes.
Raw memory allocations in the Parser have been replaced with Vector or
Array to avoid memory leaks and OOBs.
This allows runtime strings, so we can format the errors to make them
more helpful. Errors in the VP9 decoder will now print out a function,
filename and line number for where a read or bitstream requirement
has failed.
The DecoderErrorCategory enum will classify the errors so library users
can show general user-friendly error messages, while providing the
debug information separately.
Any non-DecoderErrorOr<> results can be wrapped by DECODER_TRY to
return from decoder functions. This will also add the extra information
mentioned above to the error message.
