The index(3) function has been deprecated in POSIX since 2001 and
removed in 2008, and most code in notmuch already calls strchr(3).
This fixes a compilation error on Android whose libc does not have
index(3).
The non-field processor behaviour is is convert the corresponding
queries into a search for the unprefixed terms. This yields pretty
surprising results so I decided to generate a query that would match
the terms (i.e. none with that prefix) generated for an empty header.
The argument is that if the string passed to the field processor has
no spaces, then the added quotes won't have any benefit except for
disabling wildcards. But disabling wildcards doesn't seem very useful
in the normal Xapian query parser, since they're stripped before
generating terms anyway. It does mean that the query 'from:"foo*"' will
not be precisely equivalent to 'from:foo' as it is for the non
field-processor version.
This function was deprecated in notmuch 0.21. We re-use the name for
a status returning version, and deprecate the _st name. One or two
remaining uses of the (removed) non-status returning version fixed at
the same time
This function was deprecated in notmuch 0.21. We finally remove the
deprecated API, and rename the status returning version to the simpler
name. The status returning is kept as a deprecated alias.
Apparently some systems (MacOS?) have a system library called libutil
and the name conflict causes problems. Since this library is quite
notmuch specific, rename it to something less generic.
The object where pointer to `data` was received was deleted before
it was used in _notmuch_string_list_append().
Relevant Coverity messages follow:
3: extract
Assigning: data = std::__cxx11::string(message->doc.()).c_str(),
which extracts wrapped state from temporary of type std::__cxx11::string.
4: dtor_free
The internal representation of temporary of type std::__cxx11::string
is freed by its destructor.
5: use after free:
Wrapper object use after free (WRAPPER_ESCAPE)
Using internal representation of destroyed object local data.
For reasons not completely understood at this time, gmime (as of
2.6.22) is returning a date before 1900 on bad date input. Since this
confuses some other software, we clamp such dates to 0,
i.e. 1970-01-01.
Remove incorrect skipping to first match from init(), and add explicit
skip_to() and check() methods to work around xapian-core bug (the
check() method will also improve speed when filtering by one of
these).
We filter added exclude at add time, rather than modifying the query by
count search. As noted in the comments, there are several ignored
conditions here.
The main goal is to prepare the way for non-destructive (or at least
less destructive) exclude tag handling. It does this by having a
pre-parsed query available for further processing. This also allows us
to provide slightly more precise error messages.
Fix warning caught by clang:

mid: is the url scheme suggested by URL 2392. We also plan to
introduce more flexible searches for mid: than are possible with
id: (in order not to break assumptions about the special behaviour of
id:, e.g. identifying at most one message).
the idea is that you can run
% notmuch search subject:/<your-favourite-regexp>/
% notmuch search from:/<your-favourite-regexp>/
or
% notmuch search subject:"your usual phrase search"
% notmuch search from:"usual phrase search"
This feature is only available with recent Xapian, specifically
support for field processors is needed.
It should work with bindings, since it extends the query parser.
This is easy to extend for other value slots, but currently the only
value slots are date, message_id, from, subject, and last_mod. Date is
already searchable; message_id is left for a followup commit.
This was originally written by Austin Clements, and ported to Xapian
field processors (from Austin's custom query parser) by yours truly.
The retries are hardcoded to a small number, and error handling aborts
than propagating errors from notmuch_database_reopen. These are both
somewhat justified by the assumption that most things that can go
wrong in Xapian::Database::reopen are rare and fatal. Here's the brief
discussion with Xapian upstream:
24-02-2017 08:12:57 < bremner> any intuition about how likely
Xapian::Database::reopen is to fail? I'm catching a
DatabaseModifiedError somewhere where handling any further errors is
tricky, and wondering about treating a failed reopen as as "the
impossible happened, stopping"
24-02-2017 16:22:34 < olly> bremner: there should not be much scope for
failure - stuff like out of memory or disk errors, which are probably a
good enough excuse to stop
The two g_hash_table functions (insert, add) have different behaviour
with respect to existing keys. g_hash_table_insert frees the new key,
while g_hash_table_add (which is really g_hash_table_replace in
disguise) frees the existing key. With this change 'ref' is live until
the end of the function (assuming single-threaded access to
'hash'). We can't guarantee it will continue to be live in the
future (i.e. there may be a future key duplication) so we copy it with
the allocation context passed to parse_references (in practice this is
the notmuch_message_t object whose parents we are finding).
Thanks to Tomi for the simpler approach to the problem based on
reading the fine glib manual.
Replace multiple tables with some flags in a single table. This makes
the code in notmuch_database_open_verbose a bit shorter, and it should
also make it easier to add other options to fields, e.g. regexp
searching.

We already depend on glib both directly and indirectly (via gmime). We
might as well make use of its facilities. Drop the embedded libsha1
and use glib for sha1 digests.
The todo comment got separated from the status it's related to at
commit 3f32fd8a1c ("Add missing comment for
NOTMUCH_STATUS_READONLY_DATABASE."). Later, commit b65ca8e0ba ("lib:
modify notmuch.h for automatic document generation") moved it, but to
the wrong place. Fix the location.
It seems that no-one tried to compile without Xapian compact support
since March of 2015, since that's when I introduced a syntax error in
that branch of the ifdef.
Given the choice of maintaining this underused branch of code, or
bumping the Xapian dependency to a version from 2011, it seems
reasonable to do the latter.
This should not change the SONAME, and therefore won't change the
dynamic linking behaviour, but it may help some users debug missing
symbols in case their libnotmuch is too old.
This is needed so that when the map is modified during traversal, and
thus unlinked by the database code, the map is not disposed of until the
iterator is done with it.
We want to be able to query the properties directly, like:
notmuch count property:foo=bar
which should return a count of messages where the property with key
"foo" has value equal to "bar".
