typedef is meant to create a simple renaming of a potentially complex
type, not create a new type. Keeping the parameter type alias info makes
the types effectively different when it comes to overloaded function
resolution, which is quite contrary to the goal. Does expose some
breakage elsewhere, though.
Other than its blocking of access to certain files, it really wasn't
that useful compared to the functions in qfs, and pointless with access
to qfs anyway.
The progs execution code will call a breakpoint handler just before
executing an instruction with the flag set. This means there's no need
for the breakpoint handler to mess with execution state or even the
instruction in order to continue past the breakpoint.
The flag being set in a progs file is invalid.
For technical reasons (programmer laziness), qfcc does not fix up local
def type encodings when writing the debug symbols file (type encoding
location not readily accessible).
The debug subsystem now uses the resources system to ensure it cleans
up, and its data is now semi-private. Unfortunately, PR_LoadDebug had to
remain public for qfprogs because using PR_RunLoadFuncs would cause
builtin resolution to complain.
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.
PR_SaveParams() is required for implementing the +initialize diversion
used by Objective-QuakeC because builtins do not have local def spaces
(of course, a normal stack calling convention would help). However, it
is entirely possible for a call to +initialize to trigger another call
to +initialize, thus the need for stacking parameter stashes. As a
bonus, this implementation cleans up some fields in progs_t.
The initial code was pretty much a port of the code in the editor I
wrote 25 years ago. Either I didn't think of the optimization back then,
or I tried to implement it, failed, and figured it wasn't worth it
(despite using it on a 386dx33). However, I noticed it now and it was
easy enough to get working, and it's always good to not do something
that's not needed.
Attempting to define a variable with an incomplete type is an error, and
results in a default size 1 of allocated, but I forgot to set default
alignment when implementing alignment.
