Normally, the order doesn't matter, but when tracing code, it becomes very
difficult to tell where the trace ends and the dump begins. Printing the
message first puts the message between the trace and the dump: much easier
:)
Aliasing the jump table to an integer broke statement_get_targetlist with
the new alias def handling, and was really wrong anyway. I probably did
that due to being fed up with things and wanting to get qfcc working again
rather than spending time getting jumpb right.
Using "=" was rather confusing, so changing it to "<CONV>" seems to be a
good idea. As the string is used only for selecting opcodes at compile
time, only qfcc is affected.
Certain versions of qcc (fteqcc comes to mind :P) strip the names from
builtin functions. This breaks saved games that happen to have a builtin
function in a saved function variable. The earlier builtin name
reconstruction patch happened to fix the writing of save games for such
progs, and this one fixes the reading.
That is, the descriptors loaded from the progs file. Some compilers (eg,
fteqcc :P) strip builtin names from the progs, which makes debugging
difficult.
Rather than checking the raw edict count in the entities file against the
progs' max_edicts, check the allocated entity's number. This allows loading
of sophisticated maps (eg, digs04) that prune many of their entities.
There will normally be only one unnamed field (if any), and it's always the
null field. This will put an eventual end to the "'' is not a field"
messages.
o All instances of LIBADD/LDADD have a corresponding DEPENDENCIES
specificatiion.
o libraries now use a lib_ldflags macro to keep things consistent
o duplication of source/lib names has been minimized (particularly in
the libraries; more work needs to be done for the executables)
o automake spec blocks have been organized (again, more work needs to be
done for the executables)
qcc always used vector stores to load values into the function parameters,
but if the location of the value is too close to the end of the global data
block (the vector spans the end of the block), it would trigger the bounds
check code. Thus, allow such instructions without a murmer, so long as it
actually is a parameter write.
In the original save gave format, global vectors were saved as individual
components rather than as a single vector, using the _x/_y/_z tags on the
vector name. However, recent qfcc completely dumped vector components as
separate defs, so old save games would have trouble loading with progs
built with a recent qfcc. Thus, do the component translation if necessary.
I was wondering why that parrot was dead.
Not realizing that negke's coag3 map had too many entities really ruined
the pleasure of playing it, so it's best to treat such situations as an
error (max_edicts can be bumped up to 32000 if need be, but 2048 is plenty
for his map).
