I was originally going to put it in the debug syms file, but I realized
that the data persistence code would need access to both def type and
certainly correct def offsets for defs in far data.
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.
Something is funny with Ubuntu such that -ldl needs to be specifically
added even though QFutil's .la specifies it. I don't know if it's a libtool
issue or not, but this does work.
More will probably be necessary, but this was sufficient to get prover to
the point where qfcc segged building qwaq (0.7.2).
After all that effort getting the class def initialized early enough for
type encodings to work, it proved to be a problem: just including a header
with an interface in it would cause linker errors if there was no
implementation available (even if the class is never used).
Despair has things locked down such that running qfcc during a build fails
due to lack of read access to /usr/local/lib. This is actually a good
thing as accidentally hitting old includes/libs (when a file gets deleted
in the tree) hides bugs. Thus, --no-default-paths to turn off default
search paths.
With this, qwaq will compile once I sort out the parameters for QC style
functions, and some non-executable warnings. However, as those are
compiler problems, this should be the final qwaq related commit.
Generate a mini-main function (".main", to avoid namespace pollution) that
calls the function named by "program", and make qwaq check for ".main" as
well as "main". If both are present, ".main" will take priority.
It's probably nowhere near right, but probably ok for now (I need to study
the GNUStep code). I'm unhappy with the menu code hook, but it will have
to do for now.
The plist code was written long before I thought of resource handles, and
then it was forgotten. This is much nicer and safer than storing C
pointers in progs memory space (*shudder*).
