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 ensures that the plugin's shutdown function won't get called twice
in the event of an error in the plugin's unload sequence triggering a
second Sys_Shutdown, especially if the plugin is being unloaded as a
part of another sub-system's shutdown sequence (which is probably in
itself a design mistake, need to look into that).
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.
While this caused some trouble for pr_strings and configurable strftime
(evil hacks abound), it's the result of discovering an ancient (from
maybe as early as 2004, definitely before 2012) bug in qwaq's printing
that somehow got past months of trial-by-fire testing (origin understood
thanks to the warning finding it).
They take a pointer to a free-list used for hashlinks so the hashlink
pools can be per-thread. However, hash tables that are not updated are
always thread-safe, so this affects only updates. progs_t has been set
up such that it is easy for multiple progs within one thread can share
hashlinks.
This gives us a bunch more flexibility. plugins no longer have the "lib"
prefix or the version suffix, they're now installed in
$fs_sharepath/QFplugins,, builds should take much less time (in general,
only one of pic or non-pic versions are build), bins and libs can have
individual CFLAGS
1) when /not/ building static plugins, the plugin info name is, once again,
PluginInfo, but is still type_name_PluginInfo for static plugins. This
allows plugins to be symlinked (highly desirable for the debian packages,
and likely others). This also requires plugins to /not/ be loaded with
RTLD_GLOBAL.
2) because of 1, snd_alsa_0_9 has to explicitly load libasound itself. This
just happens to fix my segfault on shutdown in RedHat 6.2.
(Sys_DPrintf is new) is now used exclusively for all lib printing. Con_Init
sets the sys printf recirection to Con_Print (which has been revamped
appropriatly) and the server sets it to SV_Print (which was SV_Printf and
the new SV_Printf calls /it/). This should fix the rcon print redirection
issues.
remove include of glob.h. not needed and causes win32 build to fail
plugin.c:
include compat.h and cast the return of GetProcAddress
gl_funcs.c:
fix parse error and type mismatch
qfgl_ext.c:
half re-write QFGL_ExtensionAddress to use QFGL_ProcAddress
vid_wgl.c:
fix for the new gl linking
thinking :)
set fs_pluginpath to point to the right dir, and set snd_plugin to pick a sound
plugin.
Current issues:
- alsa 0.5 won't build properly, dunno why
- segfault on exit. I think I know the cause of this, and how to fix it
- alsa 0.9, gus, sgi, sun, and win32 havn't been tested
