[vlc-devel] [PATCH 00/20] initial cleanup of demux/mkv (take #2)

[Filip Roséen]

These are the initial patches for the mkv demuxer, without the contriversal
additions of EbmlTypeDispatcher and StringDispatcher.

Issues fixed
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

During the review of the previous patch-batch, *Hugo Beauzée-Luyseen* noticed a
few issues which have been fixed in this one.

  - Fixed Off-by-one error in patch #12
  - Removed unused variable in patch #16

Replacement of casts
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

There are some new patches in this batch that boils down to replacing the
c-style casts with C++ casts. This was mostly applied because I got bitten by a
commit where I had changed the name of a variable, but forgot to do it in one
place.

The variable was named `ctime`, and was used in a context like `(uint32)ctime`,
effectively meaning that the function "ctime" from <time.h> was converted into
`uint32`; something which would have been caught at compile time with
`static_cast<uint32>( ctime )`.

Bitten in the ass by my own karma; I was going to do the replacements "later"
(meaning "kinda never"), but here they are because of the above.

Thanks!
