This is part of the work for #26 (Record resource pointer with builtin
function data). Currently, the data pointer gets as far as the
per-instance VM function table (I don't feel like tackling the job of
converting all the builtin functions tonight). All the builtin modules
that register a resources data block pass that block on to
PR_RegisterBuiltins.
This will make it possible for the engine to set up their parameter
pointers when running Ruamoko progs. At this stage, it doesn't matter
*too* much, except for varargs functions, because no builtin yet takes
anything larger than a float quaternion, but it will be critical when
double or long vec3 and vec4 values are passed.
They are both gone, and pr_pointer_t is now pr_ptr_t (pointer may be a
little clearer than ptr, but ptr is consistent with things like intptr,
and keeps the type name short).
This has been a long-held wishlist item, really, and I thought I might
as well take the opportunity to add the instructions. The double
versions of STATE require both the nextthink field and time global to be
double (but they're not resolved properly yet: marked with
"FIXME double time" comments).
Also, the frame number for double time state is integer rather than
float.
Forgetting to unhook the functions (Sys_Printf and the client console's
input event handler) was not a problem for static builds because the
functions were always present, but in builds with dynamic plugins, the
client console's code got ripped away and thus Sys_Printf and the event
hander were being sent into invalid memory. Too much work, not enough
play (with a fully installed client).
And create rua_game to coordinate other game builtins.
Menus are broken for key handling, but have been since the input rewrite
anyway. rua_input adds the ability to create buttons and axes (but not
destroy them). More work needs to be done to flesh things out, though.
I'm not at all happy with con_message and con_menu, but fixing them
properly will take a rework of the menus (planned, though). Also, the
Menu_ console command implementations are a bit iffy and could also do
with a rewrite (probably part of the rest of the menu rework) or just
nuking (they were part of Johnny on Flame's work, so I suspect had
something to do with joystick bindings).
This has smashed the keydest handling for many things, and bindings, but
seems to be a good start with the new input system: the console in
qw-client-x11 is usable (keyboard-only).
The button and axis values have been removed from the knum_t enum as
mouse events are separate from key events, and other button and axis
inputs will be handled separately.
keys.c has been disabled in the build as it is obsolute (thus much of
the breakage).
The recent changes to key handling broke using escape to get out of the
console (escape would toggle between console and menu). Thus take care
of the menu (escape) part of the coupling FIXME by implementing a
callback for the escape key (and removing key_togglemenu) and sorting
out the escape key handling in console. Seems to work nicely
conwidth and conheight have been moved into vid.conview (probably change
the name at some time), and scr_vrect has been replaced by a view as
well. This makes it much easier to create 2d elements that follow the
screen size (taking advantage of a view's gravity) which will, in the
end, make changing the window size easier.
qwaq-curses has its place, but its use for running vkgen was really a
placeholder because I didn't feel like sorting out the different
initialization requirements at the time. qwaq-cmd has the (currently
unnecessary) threading power of qwaq-curses, but doesn't include any UI
stuff and thus doesn't need curses. The work also paves the way for
qwaq-x11 to become a proper engine (though sorting out its init will be
taken care of later).
Fixes#15.
This refactors (as such) keys.c so that it no longer depends on console
or gib, and pulls keys out of video targets. The eventual plan is to
move all high-level general input handling into libQFinput, and probably
low-level (eg, /dev/input handling for joysticks etc on Linux).
Fixes#8
I never liked that some of the macros needed the type as a parameter
(yay typeof and __auto_type) or those that returned a value hid the
return statement so they couldn't be used in assignments.
It now takes a context pointer (opaque data) that holds the buffers it
uses for the temporary strings. If the context pointer is null, a static
context is used (making those uses of va NOT thread-safe). Most calls to
va use the static context, but all such calls have been formatted
consistently so they are easy to find when it comes time to do a full
audit.
There's still some cleanup to do, but everything seems to be working
nicely: `make -j` works, `make distcheck` passes. There is probably
plenty of bitrot in the package directories (RPM, debian), though.
The vc project files have been removed since those versions are way out
of date and quakeforge is pretty much dependent on gcc now anyway.
Most of the old Makefile.am files are now Makemodule.am. This should
allow for new Makefile.am files that allow local building (to be added
on an as-needed bases). The current remaining Makefile.am files are for
standalone sub-projects.a
The installable bins are currently built in the top-level build
directory. This may change if the clutter gets to be too much.
While this does make a noticeable difference in build times, the main
reason for the switch was to take care of the growing dependency issues:
now it's possible to build tools for code generation (eg, using qfcc and
ruamoko programs for code-gen).
This fixes the segfault when loading the menu progs. I had forgotten
that the menu code doesn't use PR_LoadProgs (I don't remember why.
Obsolete reason?).
They take a pointer to a free-list used for hashlinks so the hashlink
pools can be per-thread. However, hash tables that are not updated are
always thread-safe, so this affects only updates. progs_t has been set
up such that it is easy for multiple progs within one thread can share
hashlinks.
It is now set to 0 when progs are loaded and every time
PR_ExecuteProgram() returns. This takes care of the default case, but
when setting parameters, pr_argc needs to be set correctly in case a
vararg function is called.
I added Sys_RegisterShutdown years ago and never really did anything
with it: now any system that needs to be shutdown can ensure it gets
shutdown on program exit, and in the correct order (ie, reverse to init
order).
I've decided that setting pr.max_edicts and pr.zone_size as part of the
local progs initialization rather than in PR_LoadProgsFile makes more
sense. For one, it is unlikely for the limits to change every time progs is
reloaded. Also, they seem to be a property of the VM rather than the progs.
However, there is nothing stopping the caller from updating max_edicts and
zone_size every call.
