On Windows, include boinc_win.h
No references to STDWX_H, STDAFX_H etc.
Note: .cpp files should not have a bunch of gnarly #if logic in their includes.
If such logic is needed, put it in a central place.
They work around the apparent bug in Xcode 11 handling of OpenGL / GLUT on Retina displays, and should continue to work correctly even if future Xcode versions fix the bug.
* Screensavers can't launch setuid / sergid executables like gfx_switcher
* Screensavers can't launch executables downloaded from Internet unless vetted by user vis GateKeeper
* Apple's ScreenSaverEngine doesn't always call stopAnimation before exiting
* Apple's ScreenSaverEngine always passes true for isPreview argument
* OpenGL apps built under Xcode 11 & Catalina use window doubled window dimensions on Retina displays (2 pixels per point)
* The CGWindowList method we have used to display project graphics apps which have not been updated no longer works
* Screensaver output files are put in an obscure sandboxed directory
Remove header from boinc_api.h of the function boinc_try_critical_section() that was removed in

When the BOINC API headers are included from C source code that gets compiled with "-Wstrict-prototypes", they generate a lot of "function declaration isn’t a prototype" warnings. The attached patch fixes it by turning "foo()" to "foo(void)".

To quote from comments in lib/proc_control.cpp:
// The only way to do this on Windows is to enumerate
// all the threads in the entire system,
// and identify those belonging to one of the processes (ugh!!)
//
// In the suspend case, this creates a potential synch problem:
// - CPU throttling sends suspend message
// - we enumerate threads
// - one of those threads creates a new thread T
// - we suspend the enumerated threads
//
// In this case, T will run, which is undesirable but not an error.
// But suppose that
// - the app uses a mutex,
// - at the start of the above sequence some thread holds the mutex
// - T immediately tries to acquire the mutex (and is suspended).
// Then when the client sends a resume message,
// T resumes and there are two threads in the mutex section. Error!
//
// There are a couple of solutions to this.
// 1) enumerate all the threads twice.
// 2) have suspend() make a record of the threads it suspends,
// and have resume() resume only these threads.
//
// 1) doubles the overhead, so I'm going with 2) for now.

Decreased performance. The 'strlen' function was called multiple times inside the body of a loop.

Remove "-L$(libdir) -rapth $(libdr)" from LDFLAGS of boinc libraries in
Makefile.am of api, lib, sched and zlib directories to be able to
cross-compile boinc.
Indeed, libdir is not equal to the path where BOINC will be installed
but to exec_prefix/lib. The full installation path is
$(DESTDIR)/$(libdir).
To cross-compile boinc, exec_prefix will be set to the target path (for
example: /usr) and DESTDIR will be set (during make install) to the
staging or target directory on the host (for example /home/xxx/target).
The issue of adding -L$(libdir) is that it is not allowed by the
compiler, the error "unsafe header/library path used in
cross-compilation: '-L/usr/lib'" will be raised.
As a result, remove "-L$(libdir) -rapth $(libdr)" from LDFLAGS, the
default library search paths are sufficient for "standard" compilation
or can be updated manually by passing the additional search path to
LDFLAGS during the configure call for cross-compilation.

Except for very specific cases, strncpy() should never be used.
It can result in a non-terminated string.
Also replace strncat() with strlcat(); the latter is simpler
because you don't have to calculate remaining buffer space.
* Custom IE Javascript interface is gone, it was replaced with a cross-browser Web RPC.
In the HTML doc you can add:
<script type='text/javascript' src='/api/static/boinc.js'></script>
In the JavaScript code you can:
var boinc = new BOINC();
From there you can get the username like:
var userName = boinc.getUserName();
* Default resources are embedded within the executable in much the same way XPM images are embedded in the manager.
/api/static/index.html
/api/static/boinc.png
/api/static/boinc.js
There were two parts to this:
- In the timer thread, we need to check for client death even if
we're in a critical section.
If both conditions hold, set the no_heartbeat status flag.
- In boinc_end_critical_section(), check no_heartbeat and exit if set.
Also: the various checks in boinc_end_critical_section()
(quit, abort, no heartbeat) should be conditioned on
options.direct_process_action.
Otherwise wrappers that use critical sections won't do the right thing.
* the host has GPUs from two different vendors with different OpenCL platforms (e.g., NVIDIA and AMD), and
* the second platform queried has more GPUs than the first one, and
* the requested GPU is a higher numbed one in the second platform.
