It also mostly eliminated the extremely bad practice + of having multiple versions of a library built into an image. + + How bad was it? Very. Appalling. A nightmare. On Windows, at + least four versions of zlib (1.2.3, 1.2.5, 1.2.6, unknown), three + versions of Boost (1.45, 1.48, 1.52), two versions of OpenSSL + (0.9.8q, 1.0.0g) and three different builds of libexpat + 2.0.5/1.5.2 were used. Mac was worse with five builds or versions + of zlib, two of PCRE, two of c-ares, and three of OpenSSL. Linux + topped that by adding two builds of libpng. + + DO NOT ALLOW THIS TO HAPPEN AGAIN. It isn't enough to update a + library and then stuff a new triplet of S3 URLs into the viewer's + autobuild.xml. If you update a library you MUST: + + * Update the autobuild.xml of ALL consumers of the library. In + the case of zlib, that meant updating freetype, libpng, openssl, + libxml2, fontconfig, curl, Boost, SDL, llqtwebkit, google-mock and + colladadom. + + * Confirm by test and observation that the consumers actually use + your library rather than 'call home to mother' and find + system-supplied versions of your library. This may consist of + watching configuration scripts, probing with ldd/depends/otool, + pulling text out of binaries with 'strings'. The previously- + mentioned libraries all have a README.Linden file that gives + examples specific to the consumer library. + + * DO NOT RE-EXPORT LIBRARIES. Colladadom was the worst offender + of this rule. As a shared library, it was re-exporting part, but + not all, of Boost filesystem and system, some zlib, some PCRE, + some libxml2 and minizip. This meant that depending upon link- + time and run-time symbol resolution, data constructed with one + version of a library might be processed by a method built in a + second, incompatible version of the library. Switching colladadom + to a static library ended the re-export problem. + + * Preventing re-export is not sufficient. other libraries will + still be shipped as shared and they can still have Singleton and + Fragile Base Class issues. A DLL may be built with a static + archive of a library that has global data. That same static + archive might be linked into the application proper. An object + created with a method in the DLL may pass into a method in the + application where the archive's global data has a second instance + and no knowledge of the object. This is a failure due to an + assumption of Singleton global data which leads to some kind of + failure. This is the same effect as when, in Windows, both MSVCRT + and MSVCRTD get activated in a program. If you're lucky, some + asserts fail in that case having to do with file handle global + data. + + +Running + + Windows Debug Build. Seems to have been rendered nearly useless + by having the LL_CHECK_MEMORY define in llmemory.h calling + _CrtCheckMemory(). Viewer is almost useful disabling this in + llvoavatar code alone but not quite. + + +Futures + + Static Versus Dynamic Libraries + + One solution to the above linking problems is the use of static + libraries for everything. Single version, singleton instancing of + data, etc. But it's not the 1950's and we're not running our + applications on bare metal. Every platform comes with 100s of + libraries waiting to interfere with operations by breaking the + single-version and singleton-data assumption. + + Additionally, there are libraries that simply expect to be built + into shared libraries. Qt4 is one such. The version we're using + now, 4.7.1, is actually trying to disable both Webkit and plugin + modules because we're building it statically on Mac and Linux. + It's only because of configuration bugs that we're getting the + functionality out of it that we want. + + With enough libraries and a single, global namespace, eventually + there will be collisions and there may not be a warning. All it + takes is two programmers who thought that 'FILE * open_file(const + char *);' was a safe signature to use between compilation units in + their libraries and glorious debugging sessions are in your + future. Having debugged it, you will now become the proud owner + of a one-off version of one of those libraries that uses a special + symbol prefix which you will be maintaining forever. + + Lastly, we have some binary blobs that we must use as delivered. + Executables can be isolated at run-time if necessary. Shared + libraries are a different problem. They may bring their own + library dependencies that affect link- and run-time symbol + resolution and they'll impose that on us according to platform + rules. + + So, what to do? My natural bias for large software is to use + shared libraries for everything. It's a path to single-version + and singleton data and isolates namespaces and prevents + interactions. It also has some field servicability benefits if + you need to debug some bizarre problem a user has. + + But there's a local preference for static. Here, my + rules-of-thumb are: + + * Static library used by default. + + * Shared library where the library must be built shared. + + * Shared library if that is the only means to enforce the + single-version and singleton-data requirements. + + * Shared library *on a case-by-case basis* if the library is also + provided by the platform and some benefit is plausible. (An + example of this is freetype/fontconfig on Linux. The .so + versions we build with, and incompletely ship, are inferior in + behavior to the platform libraries. By being shared libraries, + the platform-supplied option is available to all Linux users.) + + In all cases, beware of cmake which appears to collapse and move + library references in links. This can drastically affect symbol + resolution when there are multiple sources for a symbol. + + General + + VS 2013. The /Z7 flag is rumored to be somewhat broken in 2013. + But it also sounds like there are explicit controls to name .PDB + files associated with static archives. That would make this an + ideal time to switch to /Zi or /ZI everywhere with explicit naming + and bring all the .PDBs together. + + The embedded browser technology (e.g. Qt4 with Webkit) is the + 800-pound gorilla in the viewer. When starting any major work, + decide what changes you need here as those changes will propagate + outwards forcing many other decisions (cf: /Zc:wchar_t- flag). + + Next library project. I'd recommend working on the related set of + libexpat, apr, aprutil, xmlrpc-epi. We know libexpat has some + updates that should improve stability. Libapr consumes it and it + could use some /Z7 flag work to get rid of some 1000's of PDB + warnings and improve our debug symbols. + + Miscellany to be sorted out: + + * The packaging of libfreetype and libfontconfig on Linux. + Determine what the right thing is, do it. + + * Maybe do something with ICU4C. Qt5 will require it and a number + of our packages can consume it typically replacing iconv or some + other library. But it is a huge bolus of static data. It can be + trimmed, but still. + + * Revisit openssl. Package as a shared library? Replace with + LibreSSL when available?
