GL entrypoint resolution is now done manually. This has a couple
immediate benefits, such as not having to retrieve hundreds of
functions pointers that we'll never use. It's also nice to have
an exact overview of all the entrypoints used by mkxp.
This change allows mkxp to run fine with core contexts, not sure
how relevant that is going to be in the future.
What's noteworthy is that _all_ entrypoints, even the ones core
in 1.1 and guaranteed to be in every libGL, are resolved
dynamically.
This has the added benefit of not having to link directly against
libGL anymore, which also cleans up the output of `ldd` quite
a bit (SDL2 loads most system deps dynamically at runtime).
GL headers are still required at build time.
Any options that are not arrays (ie. RTP paths) specified
as command line options will override entries in mkxp.conf.
The syntax is: --<option>=<value>
nearly all of the previous required extensions are CORE in OpenGL 2.0
the remaining ones need to have fallback checks for ARB vs EXT vs APPLE
variants..
This looks like a pretty major change, but in reality,
80% of it is just renames of types and corresponding
methods.
The config parsing code has been completely replaced
with a boost::program_options based version. This
means that the config file format slightly changed
(checkout the updated README).
I still expect there to be bugs / unforseen events.
Those should be fixed in follow up commits.
Also, finally reverted back to using pkg-config to
locate and link libruby. Yay for less hacks!
The general rule I'm aiming for is to <> include
system wide / installed paths / generally everything
that's outside the git managed source tree (this means
mruby paths too!), and "" include everything else,
ie. local mkxp headers.
The only current exception are the mri headers, which
all have './' at their front as to not clash with
system wide ruby headers. I'm leaving them be for now
until I can come up with a better general solution.
This is a major change in the Audio module that comes with
many changes throughout the codebase and dependency list.
The main gist is that we're finally nuking the last pieces
of SFML from the project. sfml-audio brought with itself
unneeded and big dependencies (libsndfile, libvorbisenc)
while at the same time limiting the amount of audio formats
mkxp can support (eg. we now get mp3 for free, and wma/midi
can be implemented by extending SDL_sound directly).
The increased control gained by interfacing with OpenAL directly
will also allow for easy integration of a dedicated audio
stretcher (librubberband), as well as enable us to implement
looped ogg vorbis (via the 'LOOPSTART'/'LOOPLENGTH' tags),
as required by RGSS2, in the future.
The FileSystem class has had its SFML parts removed.
Aditionally, audio file extensions to be supplemented are
now automatically detected based on how SDL_sound was
built (ie. if no mp3 support was built, mkxp won't try
to look for *.mp3 files). The final used extension
can be optionally returned by 'openRead' calls so
SDL_sound and SDL2_image can immediately choose the
right decoder.
The OpenAL context is created and destroyed in main.cpp
along side the GL context.
This reverts commit 34d4103111.
Turns out we need at least GLSL 1.50, for which we'd
have to throw our OpenGL 2.0 compatibility in the water.
Nope, not yet.
Using "SDL2/SDL_xxx.h" instead of "SDL_xxx.h" caused
the include paths provided by pkg-config to be ignored,
and headers from a standard include path to be used instead.
