Any projects which want to use Hush code from now on will need to be licensed as
GPLv3 or we will send the lawyers: https://www.softwarefreedom.org/
Notably, Komodo (KMD) is licensed as GPLv2 and is no longer compatible to receive
code changes, without causing legal issues. MIT projects, such as Zcash, also cannot pull
in changes from the Hush Full Node without permission from The Hush Developers,
which may in some circumstances grant an MIT license on a case-by-case basis.
This ensures the allocator is ready no matter when it's needed (as
some STL implementations allocate in constructors -- i.e., MSVC's STL
in debug builds).
Using boost::call_once to guarantee thread-safe static initialization.
Adding some comments describing why the change was made.
Addressing deinitialization of the LockedPageManager object
by initializing it in a local static initializer and adding
an assert in the base's destructor.
Create an allocators.cpp, and move all of the #ifdef WIN32
code and the #include of windows.h into it.
Two motives for this cleanup:
1. I'm getting a weird error in windows.h in my smartfee branch.
2. allocators.h is included (indirectly) just about everywhere, so
this should speed up Windows compiles quite a lot.
