This does the following.
1. Fixes checking if the CXX compiler works on platforms other than windows.
2. Turns the error when the CXX compiler is missing or doesn't work into a warning.
3. Adds HAVE_CC and HAVE_CXX.
4. Only adds CC and CXX to config.mk when HAVE_CC or HAVE_CXX are true.
5. Disables Qt companion, Vulkan, CXX_BUILD and NEED_CXX_LINKER if HAVE_CXX is false.
6. Explicitly errors when the CXX compiler is broken or missing and Qt or vulkan support is enabled.
7. No longer explicitly links with the CXX compiler on windows since this should no longer be needed.
This also adds the function `check_enabled` to `qb/qb.lib.sh` which
can be used to dynamically disable any libraries that require C++
support.
By default 'make install' will now install the following 2-3 files
to $(DESTDIR)$(SHARE_DIR)/doc/retroarch which by default is
/usr/local/share/doc/retroarch.
COPYING
README.md
and if media/assets exists it will install:
media/assets/COPYING to COPYING.assets
Users will be able to configure this install path with.
./configure --docdir=PATH
For example:
./configure --docdir=/usr/doc/RetroArch-1.7.0
This allows a user to use --datarootdir=PATH to configure the
share directory used for pixmaps, desktop files, man pages and assets.
By default this will be '/usr/local/share'. Assets and man page install
paths can still be configured with:
--with-man_dir=PATH
and
--with-assets_dir=PATH
Some operating systems like Haiku use unconventional install paths
and this should allow them to configure their build correctly.
(Linux) - Upon first boot, it checks if the assets exists inside
/usr/local/share/applications/retroarch/assets or /usr/share/applications/retroarch/assets.
If it does, it will use these as the default location for assets and assets
should show up preconfigured on the fly. If not, it will set ~/.config/retroarch/assets
instead.
