2011-05-03COMMON: Forbid use of getcwd&getwd; add macro to enable unistd.h compatibilityMax Horn
2011-05-02ALL: Mark printf and various other symbols as forbiddenMax Horn
Right now, a few places in the frontend code still use printf and consorts. We mark the affected files with a FIXME for now, and add a dedicated exception for each. To be fixed! Also tweak FORBIDDEN_SYMBOL_REPLACEMENT to hopefully really always enforce a compiler error

2010-10-30ALL: Add code to help stop people from accidentally using "bad" APIsMax Horn
A new header file common/forbidden.h is included by scummsys.h and it re-#defines numerous symbols like fopen(), fread(), system(), etc. with garbage, in order to provoke compile errors in any code using them. If a .cpp file really *must* use any of these (e.g. because it is a backend file), then these redefinitions can be disabled by #defining FORBIDDEN_SYMBOL_ALLOW_ALL as the first thing in the .cpp file. Whenever this is done, an explanatory comment should be added. Note that this system cannot catch all "bad" usages (notably the Lua code in the sword25 engine), as it can only work if scummsys.h is included. svn-id: r53961
