Re: [Confuse-devel] C++ and deprecated conversion fr om string constant to ‘char*’

[Craig McQueen]

Hello,

I see there has been no activity in the git repository for 3 years. What is the 
development status of libconfuse?

Can it be moved to github? It's more likely to attract contributions since 
github makes it easy to fork and do pull requests. Also it would be good to 
have a proper issue tracker which is better than a mailing list.

There are already some libconfuse forks on github:
https://github.com/scunningham/libConfuse
https://github.com/stricaud/libconfuse

Regards,
Craig McQueen

Hi Craig, 

I had the same exact issue. I solved it by making a local patch, but I would 
love to see this upstream.

program. It works okay, however for every config option specified with 
CFG_STR(), CFG_INT(), etc, I get a C++ compiler warning:

warning: deprecated conversion from string constant to ‘char*’

It seems that this is because struct cfg_opt field name is 'char *' rather than 
'const char *', and typical usage is to provide it a const string e.g.

CFG_STR("log-config", "log.conf", CFGF_NONE),

So, would it be possible for  struct cfg_opt field name to become 'const char 
*'?
