The commit 11f29b123 has replaced most of the uses of sprintf,
but there were still many remaining in Screen* functions, and it
was annoyingly inconsistent. Moreover, while most usage of sprintf
there was fine, it is bad hygiene to leave stack overflow prone
code around.
This removes the arbitrary 64 byte restriction (which effectively
limits us to as little as 16 Unicode characters with CJK encodings),
makes classes smaller, and is easier to use.
As a consequence of making the length of all ex-NameStr fields
unbounded, all functions that returned a buffer derived from those
were changed to return std::string. Then, functions that are
contextually similar to the ones described above were changed
to return std::string. Then, functions that now happened to mostly
take an std::string argument converted to a C string were changed
to accept std::string.
This has produced a bit of churn, but is probably for the better.
Now it is possible to give non-ASCII names to groups
as well as see non-ASCII filenames of imported files.
In the future this makes localization possible.
This works for LTR languages, such as European and CJK,
but not RTL such as Arabic. Does Arabic even exist in
monospaced form? I have no idea.
The main benefit is that std::swap will ensure that the type
of arguments is copy-constructible and move-constructible.
It is more concise as well.
When min and max are defined as macros, they will conflict
with STL header files included by other C++ libraries;
in this case STL will #undef any other definition.
The SolveSpace top-level directory was getting a bit cluttered, so
following the example of numerous other free-software projects, we move the
main application source into a subdirectory and adjust the build systems
accordingly.
Also, got rid of the obj/ directory in favor of creating it on the fly in
Makefile.msvc.
