Eliminating C/C++ implicit conversions #987

Closed Amaras closed 2 years ago

Amaras commented 2 years ago

This PR is to remove all implicit conversions in both the C and C++ codes we have.

Each file change was put in its own commit for easier revertability. Most changes were mainly following the compiler instructions, athough a few codes needed a change of types in their structure (looking at Huffman encoding in C).

I can confirm each code compiles correctly on my machine, with the Conversion error in place.

If you have trouble with compilation on Windows because of the change, please put it below and we'll see what we can do. There should not be a problem on Linux, though.
