As a general design principle, strings that we aren't going to modify should usually be const. When compiling with -Wwrite-strings, quoted string constants are of type "const char *", causing compiler warnings when they are assigned to char * variables. Unfortunately, we need to add casts in a few places: * _dbus_list_append(), _dbus_test_oom_handling() and similar generic "user-data" APIs take a void *, not a const void *, so we have to cast * For historical reasons the execve() family of functions take a (char * const *), i.e. a constant pointer to an array of mutable strings, so again we have to cast * _dbus_spawn_async_with_babysitter similarly takes a char **, although we can make it a little more const-correct by making it take (char * const *) like execve() does This also incorporates a subsequent patch by Thomas Zimmermann to put various string constants in static storage, which is a little more efficient.
