* Moved several machine lifecycle callbacks to the notifier/subscriber
model. The old callback registration model is still available for
them for now, but prints a deprecation warning.
* Added pre-save/post-load notifications.
* Use a single allocated timer rather than one anonymous timer per
waiter. Waiters no longer prevent saved states from being loaded.
* Clean up outstanding waiters on stop or state load rather than just
leaking them.
* Started documenting parts of the emulator interface object that should
be relatively stable.
-imagedev/avivideo.cpp: Fixed an object leak on unload. Also changed
some other media image devices to use smart pointers.
osd/modules/input, emu/inpttype.cpp: Made most default joystick
assignments supplied by input modules. Input modules take available
controls into consideration when generating default assignments.
emu/inpttype.ipp: Added a separate "Back" UI input separate from Cancel.
You may want an easier to hit combination for moving to the previous
menu than for exiting or cancelling input. They both default to Escape.
emu/inpttype.ipp: Added a UI Help control. Currently only used by
analog inputs menu
emu/inpttype.h: Moved I/O port field type enum to its own header and
sorted UI controls so they appear in a more logical order.
ui: Don't use UI Select to restore defaults - people should be getting
used to the UI Clear input by now. UI Select cycles multi-value items
instead.
ui/inputmap.cpp: Don't use immediate cancel to cycle between clearing
and restoring default assignment (use UI Clear instead).
osd: Reduced the number of files needing to include the dreaded emu.h.
Got some implementation out of headers.
* util/options.cpp: Added option types for single and multiple paths.
* util/options.cpp: Substitute environment variables in values from defaults and INI files.
* ui/dirmenu.cpp: Removed hard-coded list of multi-path options.
* plugins: Don't substitute environment variables in path options.
Made auto-boot script errors and plugin bootstrap errors fatal.
Run auto-boot scripts in a sandbox. Globals can be accessed, but not
set. The sandbox is cleared on hard reset, but not on soft reset.
Added (hopefully) useful to string metafunctions to device_t and
address space that show short names and tags.
Fixed issues in plugins that surface when strict type checking is
enabled, as this means numbers and nil are not automatically converted
to strings. Plugins should be tested with debug builds to check for
this.
Made save item read_block raise an error on invalid arguments rather
than returning an empty string, and made it use luaL_buffer directly
rather than using the helper wrapper.
Changed some more function bindings to use set_function to avoid issues
related to ThePhD/sol2#608, and got rid of some unnecessary lambda
captures.
Made autofire and inputmacro plugins capable of remembering settings if
the host input device for the binding is missing or if an input for a
slot device that isn't present is referenced.
frontend: Made it possible to cancel a media audit while it's in
progress. Also made the media audit multi-threaded so it's faster.
frontend: Made the DIP switches in the DIP switch preview clickable.
frontend: Made the system and software selection menus leave focus on
the same system when clearing the search rather than jumping to the
first item. Also fixed a couple of bugs in the logic for keeping the
selected item visible.
frontend: Fixed a few places that weren't showing localised system
names.
frontend: Made UI Cancel clear a search in the file manager the same way
it does on the system and sofware selection menus.
frontend: Made it possible for plugin menus to handle UI Cancel more
naturally, backing up to the previous plugin menu rather than dropping
straight back to the list of plugins. Updated the autofire, cheat and
cheatfind plugins, and fixed a few other issues in the cheatfind plugin.
debugger: Made the mount and unmount commands accept instance names as
well as brief instance names. Also updated another page of debugger
documentation.
Made the sound manager mute controls readable, and got rid of system
enable since it just controls system mute anyway. This was causing
confusion: phantom2 was trying to use both independentlyt casuing the
mute bit to be ignored.
THe Lua interface changes are mostly changing methods to properties,
some renames to make things clearer, and some additional properties for
better control over snapshots.
* Cleaned up some more of the Lua inteface. Mostly replacing methods
with properties, some consistency fixes, a few renames, some more
exposed functionality, and a couple of properties that have no
business being set from scripts made read-only.
* Moved a lot more Lua documentation out of source comments into the
documentation, and expanded on it in the process.
* Got more UI code out of the input manager.
* Changed input sequence poller to a polymorphic class where you
specify your intention upfront.
* Changed the cheat plugin to use UI Clear to clear hotkey assignments
and leave them unchanged if the user starts assignment but doesn't
press any switches.
* Ported AJR's fix for over-eager double-click recognition from SDL to
Windows OSD.
-goldnpkr.cpp: Cleaned up inputs, using standard keyout and payout types
and key assignments.
* Modernised and cleaned up Lua bindings for input classes.
* Exposed the input_sequence_poller class to Lua and updated the
autofire and cheat plugins to use it, rather than continuing to
pretend it's part of the input manager.
* Exposed more of the natural keyboard manager, including the ability
to enable/disable individual keyboard and keypad devices like you
can from the keyboard mode menu.
* Exposed a few more things on ioport_port and input_device.
-plugins/cheat: Fixed menu item not updating visually when disabling a
cheat with UI Left.
-plugins/cheatfind: Fixed not finding the first screen after screen
enumerator was exposed as an object rather than using a table.
-bwidow.cpp, pacman.cpp: Minor cleanup to recent changes.
Added methods for enabling and disabling breakpoints and watchpoints,
and made debugger views update when breakpoints/watchpoints are
manipulated from Lua. Made breakpoints and watchpoints objects rather
than tables. (It’s not possible to enable/disable a breakpoint or
watchpoint from the object itself, you have to go through its owners'
debug interface.)
Exposed more device_t members for dealing with child/sibling tags and
devices. Also provided a way to get regions/shares/banks from a device
using relative tags rather than going through the memory manager with
absolute tags.
This effectively reverts b380514764 and
c24473ddff, restoring the state at
598cd52272.
Before pushing, please check that what you're about to push is sane.
Check your local commit log and ensure there isn't anything out-of-place
before pushing to mainline. When things like this happen, it wastes
everyone's time. I really don't need this in a week when real work™ is
busting my balls and I'm behind where I want to be with preparing for
MAME release.
1. Changes visual indications to make it nicer & quicker to use.
2. Adds selectable automatic pause capability to the cheat finder menu.
3. Allows the Test/Write poke to be changed
4. Adds another cheat format capability for cheat.simple (write support only)
* Change makefile rules to treat mame.pot as a target so rules can depend on it
* Put mame.pot inside the build directory so it will get cleaned
* Couldn't get xgettext to scrape lua and C++ in the same command and still remove stale strings
* Use larger strings and format specifiers to fix some localisation issues
- Issue with "None" lacking context in Russian and Turkish translations
- Issue with "Not implemented" changing depending on the noun in Serbian
- Issues with lua plugins not allowing for languages with different grammar/punctuation
