- moved timer definitions into their own header/source files. d_main is not the right place for this.
- removed some leftover cruft from the old timer code.
This fixes two issues:
* timer related texture animations are not being recreated multiple times if a scene renders multiple viewpoints (e.g. camera textures or portals.)
* interpolation is smoother when maps have a high think time of multiple milliseconds. A good map to see the difference would be ZDCMP2 which has a think time of 4-5 milliseconds. With the timer taken in real time after the thinkers have run and VSync on this resulted in alternating time slices of 11 and 21 ms between frame interpolations instead of an even 16 as should be done for smooth 60 fps because roughly every second frame was offset by those 5 ms.
This is to ensure that the Class pointer can be set right on creation. ZDoom had always depended on handling this lazily which poses some problems for the VM.
So now there is a variadic Create<classtype> function taking care of that, but to ensure that it gets used, direct access to the new operator has been blocked.
This also neccessitated making DArgs a regular object because they get created before the type system is up. Since the few uses of DArgs are easily controllable this wasn't a big issue.
- did a bit of optimization on the bots' decision making whether to pick up a health item or not.
The global variable holding a pointer to this thinker should be a weak reference to the instance in the thinker chain, there is no need to mark this global variable, as the thinker's lifetime is only determined by the thinker chain.
- committed a few Posix related file the last commit missed.
I have no idea why they were even in there, as they intentionally circumvented all GC related features - they declared themselves fixed if prone to getting collected, they all used OF_YesReallyDelete when destroying themselves and they never used any of the object creation or RTTI features, aside from a single assert in V_Init2.
Essentially they were a drag on the system and OF_YesReallyDelete was effectively added just to deal with the canvases which were DObjects but not supposed to behave like them in the first place.
* make the critical section local to the respective platform instead of polluting everything with system specific symbols.
* moved system specific class declarations into the source file instead of having them in the global header.
This commit temporarily disables the Windows system device because it cannot be done without polluting the global header and still needs a bit of refactoring.
Most of those which still rely on ZDoom's own definition should be gone, unfortunately the code in files that include Windows headers is a gigantic mess with DWORDs being longs there intead of ints, so this needs to be done with care. DWORD should only remain where the Windows type is actually wanted.
Needless to say, this is simply too volatile and would require constant active maintenance, not to mention a huge amount of work up front to get going.
It also hid a nasty problem with the Destroy method. Due to the way the garbage collector works, Destroy cannot be exposed to scripts as-is. It may be called from scripts but it may not be overridden from scripts because the garbage collector can call this function after all data needed for calling a scripted override has already been destroyed because if that data is also being collected there is no guarantee that proper order of destruction is observed. So for now Destroy is just a normal native method to scripted classes
basicinlines.h is only included in m_fixed.h, while basictypes.h is included only in headers, so it's better to respect this convention. OSX compiles fine also without m_fixed.h, even better.
- Replaced GTK/OS X (note different from Cocoa) clipboard code with SDL clipboard API.
- Removed requirement to link to GTK in order to compile with GTK support.
- GTK is no longer init'd if the GTK IWAD picker is not used.
- Our usage of GTK is such that the dynamic loader can work with both GTK2 and GTK3 depending on what's installed.
- Since we're accumulating a lot of library loaders I've built a generic interface as FModule which replaces TOptWin32Proc and the loaders in the OpenAL and Fluidsynth code.
