[FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH] Make small_strptime() return char*

[Stefano Sabatini]

Hi,

strptime() has as signature:
char *strptime(const char *p, const char *fmt, struct tm *dt);

while we have:
const char *small_strptime(const char *p, const char *fmt, struct tm*dt);


Patch changes the constness of the returned signature to make it more
similar to the standard one, this also fixes a warning in
libavformat/utils.c:
utils.c: In function ?parse_date?:
utils.c:2948: warning: cast discards qualifiers from pointer target type

which occurrs in the code:
            dt.tm_sec = strtol(p, (char **)&q, 10);

(q is a const char*, so we're passing to strtol a const char**).

The patch shoudn't break API / ABI, so a micro version bump should be sufficient.

Regards.
