2004-05-17 Kristian Høgsberg <krh@redhat.com>
Remove base64 encoding, replace with hex encoding. Original patch from trow@ximian.com, added error handling. * dbus/dbus-string.c (_dbus_string_base64_encode) (_dbus_string_base64_decode): Remove. (_dbus_string_hex_decode): Add end_return argument so we can distinguish between OOM and invalid hex encoding. (_dbus_string_test): Remove base64 tests and add test case for invalid hex. * dbus/dbus-keyring.c, dbus/dbus-auth-script.c, dbus/dbus-auth.c: Replace base64 with hex. * test/data/auth/invalid-hex-encoding.auth-script: New test case for invalid hex encoded data in auth protocol.

- recursive dispatch, see dbus_connection_dispatch()
- - the auth protocol may as well use hex encoding instead of
- base64, then we can dump the base64 implementation and
- save some bloat.
-
- Better error checking for bogus configuration files. Currently if a
configuration file tries to include itself the bus crashes on start. We
should probably have a check against this.
