The sources in src/* are compiled with -Wcast-qual so that the compiler will warn about any conversion of (char*) to (const char*), even explicit. Yet there are few case (like when calling a system function with a dubious prototype) where such cast is required. So we simply define a function that do that. Because this function is compiled in lib/ where -Wcast-qual is not used, we avoid the warning. This incur a sligh run-time penalty, but we don't care; this is really seldom used. */ char * const_cast_string (const char *s) { return (char *) s; }
