Bug fixes.
This was SVN commit r7281.
details:
- add a new magic string "XMBu" to indicate an unfinished XMB file;
- header magic fields are now exclusively strings to avoid type punning;
- XMBFile::Initialize now has a return value which is checked by
ReadXMBFile;
- the XML loader re-creates the XMB if that fails.
This was SVN commit r6016.
. the massive renaming undertaking: camelCase functions -> PascalCase.
. add some cppdoc.
. minor additional renaming improvements: e.g. GetIsClosed -> IsClosed
. in entity code, replace constructs like "pvec = new vector; return
pvec; use *pvec; delete pvec" with a simple stack variable passed as
output parameter (avoid unnecessary dynamic allocs)
. timer: simpler handling of raw ticks vs normal timer (less #if)
This was SVN commit r5017.
fpclassify fix
EntityManager: rename getExtant -> GetExtantAsHandles, fix its
implementation+call site to avoid dynamic alloc/auto ptr, rename extant
-> IsExtant
vsnprintf2 -> sys_vsnprintf. remove printf.h (function is declared in
sysdep header)
use SUS/posix-ish strcasecmp instead of defining that to the
windows-only stricmp
add cppdoc for ia32/cpu
This was SVN commit r5011.
Color: Moved SColor* structs into SColor.h, so they can be used without
indirectly including CVector[34]D.
Terrain: Added 'base colour', for the Actor Viewer to be able to
modulate the colour of normally-white terrain.
Removed some "using namespace std" (because it doesn't make the code
easier to read, and it defeats the point of namespaces, and the rest of
the code doesn't do it).
This was SVN commit r4392.
- Modified Xeromyces to no longer automatically convert element and
attribute names to lowercase, so that we can have camelCase names. We
should now be able to convert all the multi-word entity properties, like
pass_through_allies, to camelCase, like passThroughAllies, which is more
consistent with the rest of our JavaScript naming conventions. To
support the existing code that assumes lowercase element names, I made
the getElementID and getAttributeID methods (used in the EL and AT
macros) ignore case, and I changed any code that directly accessed
element names to use the right case. CEntityTemplate now converts
Names_LikeThis to names_likeThis (changing each separate "word" in the
name to camelCase). Changed the version letter in XMB filenames from A
to B to support this without requiring people to delete old XMBs.
- Enhanced the pathfinder's handling of contact paths, resulting in a
very large speedup for actions like attacking, construction, etc. The
problem was that the pathfinder used to not count a given state as the
goal unless it was exactly coincident with the target location. This is
fine when you order a unit to go exactly to a certain spot, but if
you're ordering a unit to build, gather or attack something, then the
target tile is impassable (because your target is there) and therefore
the pathfinder never declares a state final. As a result, the pathfinder
tries hundreds of extra tiles in case there is a long path that gets to
the goal, and after failing to find any path that reaches the goal, it
gives you one to the closest point it got to. To fix it, I made the
pathfinder take into account a radius around the goal in which it's OK
to be, which depends on the size of the target unit and the range of
your action.
This was SVN commit r4186.
