This is meant for users making custom builds to match the options used on
optimized, official builds.
This enables, on the platforms which support them:
- `use_static_cpp=yes` (portable binaries for Linux and Windows)
- `use_lto=yes` (link time optimizations - note: requires a lot of RAM!)
- `debug_symbols=no` (no debug symbols, smaller binaries)
Also abort when using MSVC with `production=yes`, as:
- It cannot optimize the GDScript VM like GCC or Clang do, leading to
significant performance drops.
- Its LTO support is unreliable, at least used to trigger crashes last
we tried it extensively.
All options can still be overridden if specified, and the `dev=yes` option
was changed to also support overrides.
This enables `-static-libgcc -static-libstdc++` which help make custom Linux
builds more portable (official builds have been using this option for years).
For some obscure reason Ubuntu 18.04 i386 crashes when using the option for
i386 builds, so let's play it safe and enable for x86_64 only for now.
This has been enabled for years in official binaries, and users making custom builds
may end up not enabling it unknowingly, so it's best if we default to the same as
what official builds do.
The original reason for having it opt-in was likely the addition of a dependency on
libudev, but that should be fairly ubiquitous by now.
- Based on C++11's `thread` and `thread_local`
- No more need to allocate-deallocate or check for null
- No pointer anymore, just a member variable
- Platform-specific implementations no longer needed (except for the few cases of non-portable functions)
- Simpler for `NO_THREADS`
- Thread ids are now the same across platforms (main is 1; others follow)
There are no guarantees that joypads are in event0-event32
range. Some devices, such as laptops with detachable keyboards
and wacom can reserve events all the way up to 32.
Some udev rules with e.g. custom controller firmwares may
load the device as /dev/input/eventX, where X is greater than
32.
This patch uses POSIX dirent to enumerate the event devices, so
entries outside 0-32 range are not skipped.
Happy new year to the wonderful Godot community!
2020 has been a tough year for most of us personally, but a good year for
Godot development nonetheless with a huge amount of work done towards Godot
4.0 and great improvements backported to the long-lived 3.2 branch.
We've had close to 400 contributors to engine code this year, authoring near
7,000 commit! (And that's only for the `master` branch and for the engine code,
there's a lot more when counting docs, demos and other first-party repos.)
Here's to a great year 2021 for all Godot users 🎆
Otherwise we can get situations where platform-specific opts with the same name
can override each other depending on the order at which platforms are parsed,
as was the case with `use_static_cpp` in Linux/Windows.
Fixes#44304.
This also has the added benefit that the `scons --help` output will now only
include the options which are relevant for the selected (or detected) platform.
Some controllers (notably those made by 8bitdo) do not always emit an event to zero out a D-pad axis before flipping direction. For example, when rolling around aggressively the D-pad of an 8bitdo SN30 Pro/Pro+, the following may be observed:
```
ABS_HAT0X : -1
ABS_HAT0Y : -1
ABS_HAT0Y : 0
ABS_HAT0Y : 1
ABS_HAT0X : 1
```
Notable here is that no event for `ABS_HAT0X: 0` is emitted between the events for `ABS_HAT0X: -1` and `ABS_HAT0X: 1`. Consequently, the game engine believes that both the negative _and_ positive x-axis directions of the D-pad are activated simultaneously (i.e `is_joy_button_pressed()` returns `true` for both `JOY_BUTTON_DPAD_LEFT` and `JOY_BUTTON_DPAD_RIGHT`), which should be impossible.
This issue is _not_ reproducible on all controllers. The Xbox One controller in particular will not exhibit this problem (it always emits zeroing out events for an axis before flipping direction).
The fix is to always zero out the opposite direction on the D-pad axis in question when processing an event with a nonzero value. This unfortunately wastes a small number of CPU cycles on controllers that behave nicely.
**I have verified this issue is also reproducible in the stable 3.2 branch**
`debug_symbols=yes` will now behave like `debug_symbols=full` did
before. The difference in compressed file sizes is not that large,
which means there isn't much point in having two different values.
This helps make the buildsystem easier to understand.
Allows sending the clipboard content to the clipboard manager on exit to
keep the content when using a clipboard manager that doesn't
automatically makes a backup when copying.
MULTIPLE selection mechanism also had to be implemented, because in this
case, the clipboard manager might request multiple selection targets at
once.
Known use case: Ubuntu with XFCE4
On FocusOut events, the window could be destroyed while propagating
WINDOW_EVENT_FOCUS_OUT event, which causes the WindowData to be
invalidated, and still used for calls to XUnsetICFocus.
This change moves calls to XUnsetICFocus, and also XSetICFocus in
FocusIn events, before propagating the change of focus event to the
engine, to be safe in any case.
Also setting xic member to nullptr after all calls to XDestroyIC to keep
things clean and consistent.
Fixes#42645
When pasting clipboard content from Godot to other applications,
multiple SelectionRequest events are sent to Godot in order to access
the data. It could take a long time before the data is ready for the
other app because events were processed one by one on the main thread,
especially when Godot is unfocused and runs at low frequency.
With this change, SelectionRequest events are directly handled on the
separate event polling thread to minimize this delay.
This change also replaces clipboard_get() calls in SelectionRequest with
a direct access to internal_clipboard, since in this case we know Godot
is the owner of the clipboard content and it's not necessary to query
the x server for it.
This change makes keyboard inputs more responsive on Linux, especially
when the FPS is lower on slower configurations.
Polling events from the x server is done on a separate thread to avoid a
frame delay with inputs, due to first sending the event to the input
manager with XFilterEvent then processing the new event only on the next
frame.
Calls to Input Manager functions like XSetICFocus, XUnsetICFocus and
XSetICValues use a mutex, because they are polling events internally and
would otherwise interfere with our own thread process for polling events
which can cause a deadlock in some cases.
XUnsetICFocus is called instead of XSetICFocus on FocusOut events,
so the input manager can be properly notified of focus changes.
clipboard_get now uses a blocking call to poll for a specific event type
when waiting for a SelectionNotify event, instead of polling all events
and filtering them afterwards.
Add __NetBSD__ to `platform_config.h` so that it can find `alloca`
and use the proper `pthread_setname_np` format.
Rename RANDOM_MAX to avoid conflict with NetBSD stdlib.
Fixes#42145.
Proper implementation for get_window_at_screen_position:
Now getting the topmost last active window when overlapping.
Mouse drag & release events:
They are now propagated through the current focused window, in order to
make it consistent with the engine expectations and the Windows display
server implementation.
Now using override_redirect for menu & tooltip popups to prevent the WM from
interfering with them, so we have more control over focus management
and avoid a delay before they show up.
