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The vc project files have been removed since those versions are way out
of date and quakeforge is pretty much dependent on gcc now anyway.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 also makes functionality consistent across the platforms, such as
adding support for -dedicated to sdl based nq, and various timing
calculations are now consistent.
work, but this removes most of the redundant instantces. nq-sdl (or -sgl)
-dedicated won't have console input, nor will dedicated servers that don't
load a console plugin.
This required changes to the api (info_t instead of char *) but should be
a net gain in speed (not a lot, admittedly: it was pretty fast to begin
with, but this paves the way for some other changes I have in mind).
of pre-registered (Sys_RegisterShutdown) function before actually exiting
the program. This should take care of the pain when an ncurses server
crashes.
The CPU usage will seem higher with only 1 or 2 people connected, but
that's only when they have low framerates. It should be the same when
there's enough incoming network data to keep it from waiting a long
time anyway.
way.. Sys_Printf is now Sys_StdPrintf for now. Sys_Printf is a function
pointer and will end up replacing Con_Printf as well. Names will change
to something intelligent when I'm done. Win32 is not yet touched, but I
haven't forgotten it.
The reason for this is the assumption that Con_Printf and Sys_Printf do
not overlap. The new server console WILL change that, requiring that we
change how we handle both functions. The plan: Default to using stubs
and swap them for full-featured functions on Console init which do all
the things we expect. Will also do a stderr version later.
