Summary:
Patch from a series of patches to rename EAPI symbols to specific
library DSOs.
EAPI was designed to be able to pass
`__attribute__ ((visibility ("default")))` for symbols with
GCC, which would mean that even if -fvisibility=hidden was used
when compiling the library, the needed symbols would get exported.
MSVC __almost__ works like GCC (or mingw) in which you can
declare everything as export and it will just work (slower, but
it will work). But there's a caveat: global variables will not
work the same way for MSVC, but works for mingw and GCC.
For global variables (as opposed to functions), MSVC requires
correct DSO visibility for MSVC: instead of declaring a symbol as
export for everything, you need to declare it as import when
importing from another DSO and export when defining it locally.
With current EAPI definitions, we get the following example
working in mingw and MSVC (observe it doesn't define any global
variables as exported symbols).
Example 1:
dll1:
```
EAPI void foo(void);
EAPI void bar()
{
foo();
}
```
dll2:
```
EAPI void foo()
{
printf ("foo\n");
}
```
This works fine with API defined as __declspec(dllexport) in both
cases and for gcc defining as
`__atttribute__((visibility("default")))`
However, the following:
Example 2:
dll1:
```
EAPI extern int foo;
EAPI void foobar(void);
EAPI void bar()
{
foo = 5;
foobar();
}
```
dll2:
```
EAPI int foo = 0;
EAPI void foobar()
{
printf ("foo %d\n", foo);
}
```
This will work on mingw but will not work for MSVC. And that's why
EAPI is the only solution that worked for MSVC.

Summary:
links to images that this patch is modifying would be included in doxy docs
without pre or post process something in meson definition, if we applied this patch.

we really can't do much here but our direct casting causes warnings in
apps or anyone using this macro so keep things silent as our pointer
tricks are actually ok but the compiler can't figure it out.
Summary:
I've combed through the Eina source files and made enhancements to the
documentation, including:
- Document the undocumented
- Fixed some errors in Doxygen markup
- Moved some function documentation from implementation (.c or .x) to definition
(.h)
- Edited some of the entries to improve clarity

it might have been free'd by the user, so set it to NULL before next
iteration. This is an attempt to fix CID 1039913 and 1039914.
We don't use the pointer value, only the pointer, so the error is wrong.
Could flag the error in coverity, but if this fixes it, we wont see the
error in other situations.
As cedric said a couple years ago in commit 17c820ae:
"This initialisation is not needed, but will reduce llvm warning noise."
