Mirko Bonadei 25ab3228f3 Replace assert() with RTC_DCHECK().
CL partially auto-generated with:

git grep -l "\bassert(" | grep "\.[c|h]" | \
  xargs sed -i 's/\bassert(/RTC_DCHECK(/g'

And with:

git grep -l "RTC_DCHECK(false)" |  \
  xargs sed -i 's/RTC_DCHECK(false)/RTC_NOTREACHED()/g'

With some manual changes to include "rtc_base/checks.h" where
needed.

A follow-up CL will remove assert() from Obj-C code as well
and remove the #include of <assert.h>.

The choice to replace with RTC_DCHECK is because assert()
is because RTC_DCHECK has similar behavior as assert()
based on NDEBUG.

This CL also contains manual changes to switch from
basic RTC_DCHECK to other (preferred) versions like
RTC_DCHECK_GT (and similar).

How to write code in the api/ directory

Mostly, just follow the regular style guide, but:

  • Note that api/ code is not exempt from the “.h and .cc files come in pairs” rule, so if you declare something in api/path/to/foo.h, it should be defined in api/path/to/foo.cc.
  • Headers in api/ should, if possible, not #include headers outside api/. Its not always possible to avoid this, but be aware that it adds to a small mountain of technical debt that were trying to shrink.
  • .cc files in api/, on the other hand, are free to #include headers outside api/.

That is, the preferred way for api/ code to access non-api/ code is to call it from a .cc file, so that users of our API headers wont transitively #include non-public headers.

For headers in api/ that need to refer to non-public types, forward declarations are often a lesser evil than including non-public header files. The usual rules still apply, though.

.cc files in api/ should preferably be kept reasonably small. If a substantial implementation is needed, consider putting it with our non-public code, and just call it from the api/ .cc file.
