Hi,
I've noticed that an error in parsing etc/codecs.conf does not stops
compilation but insteads causes a confusing error later:
codec-cfg.c:546: error: 'builtin_video_codecs' undeclared
I think
/*
* Take path to codecs.conf from command line, or fall back on
* etc/codecs.conf
*/
if (!(nr_codecs = parse_codec_cfg((argc>1)?argv[1]:"etc/codecs.conf")))
exit(1);
can write something like
# error "parsing codecs conf"
on the stdout so the compilation will stop with a less confusing error
e.g. std99 on mingw gcc 4.2 causes a lot of spam and it's not easy to ead parsing error message
also a check in the makefile can be ok
Regards
