- stderr_file_writer was unused
- stderr_stream was a pointer to a stream, rather than a stream
- other functions assumed that getStderrStream has already been called
Start implementing https://github.com/ziglang/zig/issues/4917 which is to rename instream/outstream to reader/writer. This first change allows code to use Writer/writer instead of OutStream/outStream, but still maintains the old outstream names with "Deprecated" comments.
The AddressList returned can contain more than one item
e.g. the ipv4 and ipv6 addresses for a given hostname.
Previously if a server had multiple addresses but
was not listening on one of them Zig would give up
immediately.
Now on std.os.ConnectError.ConnectionRefused Zig will
try the next address in the list. Zig still gives up on
all other errors as they are related to the system and
system resources rather than whether the remote server
is listening on a particular address.
ERROR_DIRECTORY (267) is returned from kernel32.RemoveDirectoryW if the path is not a directory. Note also that os.DirectDirError already includes NotDir
Before: error.Unexpected: GetLastError(267): The directory name is invalid.
After: error: NotDir
generalizes functionality of ArrayList.insertSlice() to overwrite
a range of elements in the list and to grow or shrink the list as needed
to accommodate size difference of the replacing slice and the range
of existing elements.
* improve docs
* add TODO comments for things that don't have open issues
* remove redundant namespacing of struct fields
* guard against ioctl returning EINTR
* remove the general std.os.ioctl function in favor of the specific
ioctl_SIOCGIFINDEX function. This allows us to have a more precise
error set, and more type-safe API.
