* Any pad can control the menu
== DETAILS
I am not sure I've quite got it so that any pad can *open* the
menu, but I do have it so any pad can control it.
- split out the input processing into a separate method
- track down and squish some hairy bugs that boiled down to
bad pointer math
- it looks like `menu_driver.c` has a mix of line endings, so I
ran it through `dos2unix` so it has consistent line endings
again.
- verified that this change did not impact actual cores
* optimize out cumulative_bits
* Incorporate PR feedback
Many thanks to @jdgleaver for providing these optimizations.
* apply one more optimization
== DETAILS
Use a little trickery to ensure the GCA driver continues working
with other HID implementation.
I've expanded the joypad implementation to support multi-pad devices.
However, this requires changes to each HID implementation to actually
function.
I've made the necessary changes for WIIU, but I don't have the means
of making the change in the other HID implementations.
So, I've built in a backwards-compatibilty mode for the driver.
The trick is to have an identifier byte at the top of both data structs
that the driver returns. We can then use that byte to determine which
of the structs has been passed to the pad functions and act accordingly.
In the GCA case, for non-wiiu platforms, it will simply expose port 1
of the GCA and the other 3 ports do nothing.
== DETAILS
When I first implemented the Wii U HID architecture, I ended up
having to design my own implementation because, at the time, I did
not have a way to read the HID device string to allow the existing
code to successfully detect the gamepad.
After spending some time experimenting, I've figured out how to
do this. And that means I can better align the HID driver with other
platforms.
change summary:
- create a single state structure for all three sub-types of wiiu pads
(kpad, wpad, and hid)
- eliminate confusing duplicate pad lists
- eliminate confusing duplicate HID pad drivers (ds3, gamecube
adapter, etc)
- ensure the ds3 driver still works
== DETAILS
- DS3 analog wasn't working mainly because I forgot to actually declare the
axes in input/input_autoconfig.c when declaring the pad. Whoops.
- I also moved the axis decoding logic to a more central place, because it
clearly is not Wii U specific.
- Removed some dead commented-out code
== TESTING
Can use analog inputs on both GCA and DS3. Tested in Mario 3 on Nestopia core.
Haven't tested with any actual analog games, but I did confirm via logging
that the correct ranges are produced.
== DETAILS
Hooray for conditional compile directives.
Moving things around broke things in unexpected ways on non-WiiU builds.
Well, not *completely* unexpected. But still.
Changes:
- Move some typedefs around to avoid circular include dependencies
- Include the file where the HID driver definition got moved to
== TESTING
- verified build for Wii U still runs successfully
- did a local build without any errors (some weird warnings, but since they
happen in code I didn't change, I'm assuming they're pre-existing?)
== DETAILS
Whereas the last commit had a hack (that disabled the wiimote
driver in the process), this has.. well, a *different* hack that
allows pads to register in any order.
Note that due to the initialization routines, the gamepad will still
likely always get slot 0. Not sure if this can be overridden via config
or not.
== TESTING
Tested locally with GC adapter
