Just create the AboutDialog on the stack -- the actual object lives on
the heap anyway, since Qt uses the pimpl idiom. Removes the need for
an explicit new and a special delete on close attribute.
Ideally Common.h wouldn't be a header in the Common library, and instead be renamed to something else, like PlatformCompatibility.h or something, but even then, there's still some things in the header that don't really fall under that label
This moves the version strings out to their own version header that doesn't dump a bunch of other unrelated things into scope, like what Common.h was doing.
This also places them into the Common namespace, as opposed to letting them sit in the global namespace.
Sentret_C posted this comment on Transifex recently:
"What Dolphin refers to as "Table View" and "List View" are
similar to "List View" and "Grid View" in Steam, and I think
the Steam names describe them better."
I agree with that, so here's a commit that changes the names.
Changes:
- `ShowDevelopmentWarning` is now under the '[Interface]' group in
Dolphin.ini, with other interface-related settings. So, whoever uses
DolphinQt will have to edit that manually again. Sorry!
- Game search paths and the last file are now shared properly with
DolphinWX
- Qt-only preferences like "Preferred View: list/table" are now
stored using the platform's native settings storage, rather than in
UI.ini
* Move out boot parameters to a separate struct, which is not part
of SConfig/ConfigManager because there is no reason for it to
be there.
* Move out file name parsing and constructing the appropriate params
from paths to a separate function that does that, and only that.
* For every different boot type we support, add a proper struct with
only the required parameters, with descriptive names and use
std::variant to only store what we need.
* Clean up the bHLE_BS2 stuff which made no sense sometimes. Now
instead of using bHLE_BS2 for two different things, both for storing
the user config setting and as a runtime boot parameter,
we simply replace the Disc boot params with BootParameters::IPL.
* Const correctness so it's clear what can or cannot update the config.
* Drop unused parameters and unneeded checks.
* Make a few checks a lot more concise. (Looking at you, extension
checks for disc images.)
* Remove a mildly terrible workaround where we needed to pass an empty
string in order to boot the GC IPL without any game inserted.
(Not required anymore thanks to std::variant and std::optional.)
The motivation for this are multiple: cleaning up and being able to add
support for booting an installed NAND title. Without this change, it'd
be pretty much impossible to implement that.
Also, using std::visit with std::variant makes the compiler do
additional type checks: now we're guaranteed that the boot code will
handle all boot types and no invalid boot type will be possible.
