qfcc now does local common subexpression elimination. It seems to work, but
is optional (default off): use -O to enable. Also, uninitialized variable
detection is finally back :)
The progs engine now has very basic valgrind-like functionality for
checking pointer accesses. Enable with pr_boundscheck 2
After running across a question about lists of animation frames and states,
I decided giving qfcc the ability to generate such lists might be a nice
distraction from the optimizer :) Works for both progs.src and separate
compilation. No frame file is generated if no macros have been created.
Since gnu bison and flex are required anyway, no harm in using their api
prefix options. Now, qfcc can compile both QC/Ruamoko and Pascal files
(Pascal is (currently?) NOT supported in progs.src mode), selecting the
language based on the extension: .r, .qc and .c select QC/Ruamoko, .pas and
.p select Pascal, while anything else is treated as an object file (as
before).
The output can be controlled via --block-dot (not yet documented). The
files a named <sourcefile>.<function>.<stage>.dot. Currently, stage will be
one of "initial" (after expression to statement conversion), "thread"
(after jump threading), "dead" (after dead block removal), "final" (final
state before actual code emission).
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.
"vector-components" in code options controls this feature. The default is
off for advanced code and on for traditional code. Disabling
vector-components prevents the comonent names polluting the namespace and
reduces the number of globals needed for vector fields if the components
of that field are never used.
Most of the guts of configure.ac have been moved to config.d and are then
brought in by m4_include. This will make maintaining configure.ac much easier.
Also drop use of PROGRAM and VERSION, using PACKAGE_NAME, PACKAGE_VERSION, and
on occasion, PACKAGE_STRING instead, and clean out some old files we no longer
need.
define default include and lib paths for qfcc
ruamoko:
{cl_menu,game}/Makefile.am:
conform to the new qfcc library linking rules
lib/Makefile.am:
install the libs to ${prefix}/lib/ruamoko
qfcc:
linker.[ch]:
support path searching for -llib and make linker_add_lib search for
libfoo.a for -lfoo in the paths, or just a single dir search for the
libname otherwise.
options.c:
support -L libpath and setup the default include and lib paths
also change most strdup calls to save_string
qfcc.c:
check for foo.a as well as -lfoo when deciding whether the file is
an object file or lib file.
