I never liked it, but with C2x coming out, it's best to handle bools
properly. I haven't gone through all the uses of int as bool (I'll leave
that for fixing when I encounter them), but this gets QF working with
both c2x (really, gnu2x because of raw strings).
This is an extremely extensive patch as it hits every cvar, and every
usage of the cvars. Cvars no longer store the value they control,
instead, they use a cexpr value object to reference the value and
specify the value's type (currently, a null type is used for strings).
Non-string cvars are passed through cexpr, allowing expressions in the
cvars' settings. Also, cvars have returned to an enhanced version of the
original (id quake) registration scheme.
As a minor benefit, relevant code having direct access to the
cvar-controlled variables is probably a slight optimization as it
removed a pointer dereference, and the variables can be located for data
locality.
The static cvar descriptors are made private as an additional safety
layer, though there's nothing stopping external modification via
Cvar_FindVar (which is needed for adding listeners).
While not used yet (partly due to working out the design), cvars can
have a validation function.
Registering a cvar allows a primary listener (and its data) to be
specified: it will always be called first when the cvar is modified. The
combination of proper listeners and direct access to the controlled
variable greatly simplifies the more complex cvar interactions as much
less null checking is required, and there's no need for one cvar's
callback to call another's.
nq-x11 is known to work at least well enough for the demos. More testing
will come.
For now, the functions check for a null hunk pointer and use the global
hunk (initialized via Memory_Init) if necessary. However, Hunk_Init is
available (and used by Memory_Init) to create a hunk from any arbitrary
memory block. So long as that block is 64-byte aligned, allocations
within the hunk will remain 64-byte aligned.
This makes gib depend on gamecode, but removes the dependency on gib from
ruamoko. Unfortunately, carne now needs to be linked against gamecode even
though it never uses it.
and probably has enough bugs to leave the Orkin man scratching his head,
but it works and allows you to do neat things like write classes in GIB
(amazing!) and subclass builtin classes (which are Object and Thread at the
moment, Hash should be coming soon as a replacement for stem and leaf
variables).
changes. There still remains some bugs to be squashed, a feature or two to
add, and some polishing to be done. However, it seems to be in a workable
state.
below, or relative above (uses .. to ascend the filesystem). Changed
file functions in GIB to use this. GIB can now be initialized in a
non-sandboxed mode, which at the moment means that GIB scripts run with
carne can access the entire filesystem.
