Previously, the Qt frontend would initialize the controller
interface on starting, resulting in the cursor position being
relative to the main window, instead of the render window.
Xlib supports many mouse buttons, though there are 9 standard buttons, and they aren't arranged like other mouse APIs. Using only 5 buttons was preventing the use of buttons besides left/right/middle click and the scroll wheel. Here's what all the standard buttons are:
1. left button
2. middle button (pressing the scroll wheel)
3. right button
4. turn scroll wheel up
5. turn scroll wheel down
6. push scroll wheel left
7. push scroll wheel right
8. 4th button (aka browser backward button)
9. 5th button (aka browser forward button)
The remaining button indices are non-standard and device-specific, and technically far more than 32 are supported, but this seems like a reasonable limit to avoid cluttering the list with tons of useless mouse buttons. What mouse has more than 32 buttons anyways?
Makes it less error-prone to get state data from analog sticks (no need
to pass any locals), and also allows direct assignment, letting the
retrieved data be const.
Makes it less error-prone to get state data from tilt controls (no need
to pass any pointers to locals), and also allows direct assignment,
letting the retrieved data be const.
Makes it less error-prone to get state data from sliders (no need

Deduplicates code, and gets rid of some problems the old code had
(such as: bad performance when calling native functions, only one
disc showing up for multi-disc games, Wii banners being low-res,
unnecessarily much effort being needed for adding more metadata).
Some button names should be translated, for instance Up, Left and such.
At the same time, some other button names shouldn't be translated,
for reasons that might be less obvious. In 0146456af, I removed the
_trans markers for button names that never need to be translated
(such as A and B), but that isn't actually enough to ensure that
DolphinWX won't try to translate them anyway. This commit adds a bool
that explicitly tells the GUI whether a button name should be translated.
Otherwise we'll have problems like the GUI treating the button name "B"
(which isn't supposed to be translated) as matching the translatable
string "B" (being an abbreviation of "bytes"), meaning that the button
"B" will be labeled "o" when running Dolphin in French (after
translations get pulled from Transifex the next time).
By the way, while it turned out that DolphinWX translated all button
names, it also turned out that DolphinQt2 translated *no* button names.
Go figure. This commit makes them consistent with each other.
Makes our libraries explicitly link in which libraries they need.
This makes our dependencies explicit and removes the reliance on the
LIBS variable to contain the libraries that they need.
Whenever udev_monitor_receive_device() returns a non-null pointer,
the device must be unref'd after use with udev_device_unref().
We previously missed some unref calls for non-evdev devices.
It's not guaranteed that the eventfd is smaller than the monitor fd,
because fds are not always monotonically allocated. To select()
correctly in all cases, use the max between the monitor fd and eventfd.
This lets Dolphin know if a configured GameCube Controller should actually
be treated as connected or not.
Talked to @JMC47 a bit about this last night. My use-case is that all of
my controllers are the same hardware (Xbox One controllers) so share the
same configuration (modulo device number). Treating them all as always
connected isn't a problem for most games, but in some (Smash Bros.) it
forces me to go find a keyboard/mouse and unconfigure any controllers
that I don't actually have connected. Hotplugging devices (works on macOS,
at least) + this patch remove my need to ever touch the Controller Config
dialog while in a game.
This patch makes the following changes:
- A new `BooleanSetting` in `GCPadEmu` called "Always Connected", which
defaults to false.
- `ControllerEmu` tracks whether the default device is connected on every
call to `UpdateReferences()`.
- `GCPadEmu.GetStatus()` now sets err bit to `PAD_ERR_NO_CONTROLLER` if
the default device isn't connected.
- `SIDevice_GCController` handles `PAD_ERR_NO_CONTROLLER` by imitating the
behaviour of `SIDevice_Null` (as far as I can tell, this is the only use
of the error bit from `GCPadStatus`).
I wanted to add an OSD message akin to the ones when Wiimotes get
connected/disconnected, but I haven't yet found where to put the logic.
Axis range was previously calculated as max + abs(min), which relies on the assumption that
min will not exceed 0. For (min, max) values like (0, 255) or (-128, 127), which I assume to
be the most common cases, the range is correctly calculated as 255. However, given (20,
235), the range is erroneously calculated as 255, leading to axis values being normalized
incorrectly.
SDL already handles this case correctly. After changing the range calculation to max - min,
the axis values received from the evdev backend are practically identical to the values
received from the SDL backend.
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.
Same as the previous commit, except I'm copying strings
in the other direction because the DolphinWX variants
of these strings could use some improvement.
Only remaining issue is that clicking on the titlebar of the window, to give it focus, is already interpreted as input. But clicking on the window in the task bar, or using alt tab works to get back, without causing an input event.
Since these button names are printed on all real controllers,
we should show them in the same way as they are printed on
the controllers, regardless of the user's language. It seems
like this was intended all along (except for "Start"), but the
_ markers in TASInputDlg.cpp (accidentally?) led to the button
names in the controller configs also becoming translatable.
I'm making exceptions for "L" and "R" because translators
may want to mark them in some way (for instance "L-Digital")
to clarify the difference from "L-Analog" and "R-Analog".
I'm also making an exception for START/PAUSE because it's
referred to as スタート in Japanese games.
I'm changing "Home" and "Start" to uppercase for consistency
with how Nintendo refers to those buttons, and because someone
who isn't familiar with the Latin script might not know the
connection between the lowercase and uppercase letters (most
users likely do know the connection, but we shouldn't assume it),
and because leaving "Start" as "Start" makes it "collide" with
unrelated strings, such as the string for the button that starts
a netplay session.
To rename "Start" and "Home" without breaking INI
compatibility, I added a ui_name variable like in f5c82ad.
