I think I wasn't sure at the time whether the simple variable was
required for pthread_cond_wait (and friends) to work properly, but it
is: the time between the target posting the debug event and the target
waiting on the condition variable turns out to sometimes be enough for
the debugger to handle the event and signal the target to continue,
resulting in the target waiting on a signal that will never come because
another debug event will not be sent by the target until AFTER it has
exited from the debug handler.
Same issue as for the menus. But now I know why PR_LoadProgsFile is used
instead of PR_LoadProgs (at least for qwaq): avoidance of the gamedir
restriction (however, the menus are supposed to be restricted).
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The vc project files have been removed since those versions are way out
of date and quakeforge is pretty much dependent on gcc now anyway.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).
I decided that stopping in between function calls that are on the same
line is a good thing as it gives a chance to skip over the first but
step into the second.
This allows a debugger to do any symbol lookups and other preparations
between loading progs and the first code execution. .ctors are called as
per normal if debug_handler is not set.
While this does answer the question of how I'll go about restarting the
target progs (when I get to that point), it was required just to start
full-on ruamoko progs because .ctor was getting run in the main thread
and blocking due to trace.
This puts a print command (to Sys_Printf) into the queue making it
easier to check command sequences since regular printf is asynchronous
with the stream.
For now it just manages type encodings via their encoding string,
ensuring types are fetched from the target only once, if at all (may
already have the type due to it being common).
Things were getting rather cluttered with everything being qwaq-* and
all in one directory. Now most have lost the qwaq- prefix and have been
moved into subdirectories (non-recursive make).
