It substantially complicates the code and doesn't really provide any
functionality. According to the forums, the Android app is out of date
and has been broken for quite a while.
If we want to add this back, I'd write an app that speaks a more native
Wiimote protocol, and we can hook that up to the backend quite easily.
It could even be over our NetPlay protocol!
Copies over the PP shaders to the APK's assets and installs them on run.
Exposes them via the video settings UI.
This is in anticipation of dropping the workaround for rotated blits on Adreno and instead forcing shader usage by the user.
MemArena mmaps the emulated memory from a file in order to get the same
mapping at multiple addresses. A file which, formerly, was located at a
static filename: it was unlinked after creation, but the open did not
use O_EXCL, so if two instances started up on the same system at just
the right time, they would get the same memory. Naturally, this caused
extremely mysterious crashes, but only in Netplay, where the game is
automatically started when the client receives a broadcast from the
server, so races are actually quite likely.
And switch to shm_open, because it fits the bill better and avoids any
issues with using /tmp.
- Make "copy data into bundle" depend on the files actually being
changed, rather than being run on every build.
- postprocess_bundle depends on system files and checking the Dolphin
binary and all that, and would be iffy to try to avoid rerunning;
but it's only needed to produce a redistributable bundle, so add
SKIP_POSTPROCESS_BUNDLE to skip it for development.
Feedback is in logs as suggested by skid_au. The checkbox is still there, but
mostly for people who would like to opt out (unfortunately, I can not be sure
how this feature may behave for some routers - there's a hell of a lot of bad
UPnP implementations.)
The Visual Studio stuff is a little messy, so I apologize if anything is a bit
off. I tested most configurations and it worked.
I also tested CMake on Debian Wheezy, Ubuntu Saucy, and Mac OS X Mountain Lion.
All seemed to be OK.
The problem here was the logic that detects SDL in the main CMakeLists.txt
is not the same as it is in DolphinWX/CmakeLists.txt to set libraries. When
using SDL from Externals it failed at link time because -lSDL was never set.
This fixes the problem by using the same condition logic to set the libs
as used when detecting SDL in the first place.
Dolphin code already builds against SDL2 but the build system never
checks for SDL2, which is the what latest SDL is called now. SDL2
replaces SDL 1.3. This allows Dolphin to be build against SDL2, which
activates certain new features such as the haptic interface.
