Dev notes:
* Renamed MtgsthreadObject to SysMtgsThread (matches naming pattern of other thread classes).
* Added accessors for GetMtgs() and GetCoreThread() [rationale for them documented in source comments]
* Removed wxHelpers namespace since we're using px name prefix instead for most stuff.
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@2238 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* Botting NoDisc with "Skip BIOS" enabled should work now (untested).
* Renamed StaticText / StaticHeading helpers to simply Text and Heading.
* Made the iR5900 recompiler's stack alignment check a dynamic toggle instead of a dev/debug build preprocessor.
* Fix annoying linux linker errors.
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@2229 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
DevStuff:
* Added a handful of operator+= overloads for working with wxSizers -- moderately reduces code clutter. :)
* Commented some of the wxHelpers classes (pxStaticText, wxPanelWithHelpers, etc).
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@2221 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* ... more WIP stuff on the Video options panel.
* Spent 12 hrs working on crap text wrapping and window sizing issues.
* Moved several UI classes to utilities (lots of project changes, breaks linux)
* Fixed stilly bug in SPU2-X that prevented it from working (at all).
* Lots of code cleanups, and 1 or 2 bugfixes.
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@2212 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* Added support for indentation, as a replacement for using \t (options include methods SetIndent and Indent, and a ConsoleIndentScope class for scoped indentation of a block of WriteLns.)
* Use of Indent() as a modifier (the abstraction optionally allows use of indentation methods besides \t, if ever needed).
* Minor header file cleanups: wxWidgets standard headers are now always first in PrecompiledHeader.h files (is recommended due to cross platform setup code by wx).
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@2198 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
Dev note: kinda reached a point where I'd like to make some revamps of the wxHelper classes based on better understanding of wx-in-practice. So I'm going to work on a significant refactoring of most pcsx2 panel constructors starting now. :)
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@2171 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* Minor cleanups to iFPU roundmode recompilation.
* Changed AsciiFile from wxFile (slow!) to wxFFile (fast!)
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@2156 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
Explanation: EBP was being used by mVU macro-mode (COP2), which violated the new EErec aligned stack setup. ie, register/stack corruption resulted.
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@2123 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* Fixed a bug in the Full-mode FPU recompiler.
* Added some better error handling to the BIOS Rom loader.
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@2117 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
Details:
* Intel's FXSAVE requires an aligned buffer (wasn't explicitly documented in the programmer's guide).
* I moved the wxMenu() objects in the wxApp constructor to OnInit(), which should be post-GTK initialization.
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@2115 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* Added SSE_MXCSR union/struct with bitfields and methods for doing common actions.
* Converted all existing MXCSR code to use the new union.
* Added a __pagesize macro for use in conjunction with __pagealigned and dynarec functions.
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@2113 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
Renamed a bunch of functions/methods in the Threading namespace that have been bugging me for a while. (MutexLock is renamed to Mutex, Lock() is renamed to Aquire(), etc)
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@2102 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
Rationale: FromAscii should only be used on old-style DOS/ANSI character strings that use the upper 128 characters for drawing pictures or writing umlauts, which is pretty much nothing at all as far as PCSX2 is concerned. Chances are even the japanese console logs coming from the PS2 itself use UTF8.
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@2092 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* Added more colors!
* VM's EE/IOP logs (the ones that come from the emulated games themselves) are colored accordingly: EE are faint cyan, IOP are faint yellow. They're intentionally "hard to read" because 99% of the time they're meaningless trivia (but still cool since it's what the actual devs would have used for developing the games!).
Dev Notes:
* Removed Console.Status (specify blue/green colors manually if you want them).
* Renamed Console.Notice to Console.Warning.
* I changed the overloads so that both char* and wxChar* versions work like printf now (no need to use wxsFormat when working with unicode strings). I also removed wxString& versions of the overloads. This should (I hope) also be an easier port to wx2.9 or 3.0, when that time comes.
* Default log color is now black instead of gray; typically you'll want to manually specify Color_Gray when doing high volume logging (like the EErec's block tracking in debug builds).
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@2091 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
(also includes some header file prepwork for my next wxWidgets windows.h commit fix)
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@2069 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* Removed some unused sealed class container mess that liked to cause compilation errors on GCC 4.2
* Added a macro for efficient invocation of static recompiled code buffers.
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@2065 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* Exception/Signal handling now uses an EventSource, so that multiple handlers can be registered. This is in preparation for (eventual) more complete MIPS TLB support in the VTLB memory model.
* Improved code isolation, so that recompiler-specific code is primarily in iR5900-32.cpp (cleans up Counters.cpp and SysCoreThread.cpp)
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@2063 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* Added -fno-strict-aliasing to the ever growing list of gcc optimizations that can potentially cause perfectly good C code to generate entirely broken results.
* Removed the preferred-stack=2, since this branch *should* run fine without it now.
* Have Release builds in Linux SIGKILL when encountering an unexpected SIGSEGV.
* Fixed some deadlock issues with the new console logger (it introduced cancel points, which is a good thing! unless you're the EE recompiler and you swallow up any attempt by GCC to cancel a thread)
* Compilation error fixes.
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/branches/aligned_stack@2049 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* Added timeBeginPeriod() to improve the Win32 kernel scheduler resolution (improves sleep accuracy and thread responsiveness)
* hackfixed some code that made exiting pcsx2 "slow" sometimes.
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@2041 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* Implemented setjmp/longjmp method of escaping recompiled code, circumventing the deadly pitfalls of the g++ exception mess.
* Use longjmp to jump to a "safe" location (outside recompiled code) for suspending and canceling the SysCoreThread (see StateThreadCheck_LongJmp)
* I'm the stack daddy mack. That's right. Uh huh. Uh huh.
* Test for m_detached in PersistentThread::IsSelf, since Linux likes to recycle thread handles in a hurry (like, as in, consecutively)
* Fix a deadlock in the Consoole Log (seems to be GTK+ specific, and in fact I'm pretty sure wxApp->Yield() isn't thread safe and thinks it's recursive even when it's not)
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/branches/aligned_stack@2035 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
Done:
* EEcore aligns stack on entry and performs routine checks of ESP and EBP integrity.
* Dispatchers are recoded using the PCSX2 Emitter.
Todo:
* Convert all C-code function calls from the recompiler to use the new aligned stack setup.
* Implement stack-alignment checks and emitter-based dispatchers for the IOP.
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/branches/aligned_stack@2024 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* Added TimedLock to MutexLock
* Use MutexLock::TimedLock as a replacement for some sloppy semaphore use in SysCoreThread and PersistentThread.
* Minor fixes to thread cleanup when exiting the App
* Added some extra deadlock protection to the blocking Wait and Lock functions for Mutexes and Semaphores.
* Moved MutexLock and Semaphore implementations into their own files.
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@2022 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* Fixed and added better Emulation/System menu updating. Suspend/Resume is more consistent, and Reset grays itself out after being used.
* Entering plugin configurations auto-suspends the emulator.
* Changing plugins in the Configuration PAnel takes effect now without a restart.
* Added preliminary support for an ExtensibleConfirmation Dialog box (contains a sizer you can add content to, and also has an optional "[x] Do not show this again" checkbox).
Bugfixes:
* Added some mutex protection to cdvdNewDiskCB; "just in case."
* Resolved several recursion and deadlock scenarios when (very!) rapidly suspending, resuming, and resetting the emu.
Developments / Code Cleanups:
* Renamed SysCoreThread ExecutionModes: Suspend/Resume are now Opened/Closed (which more accurately reflects the fact they opena nd close the plugins, and helps avoid ambiguity with the "Paused" state).
* Added Exception::ThreadTimedOut, which is now thrown from Semaphore::Wait when recursive wxApp::Yield() calls are detected, and a deadlock occurs (basically cancels the current action which, most of the time, allows for full recovery).
* Major Threading namespace cleanups, documentations, etc.
* Removed wxScopedArray (scopedarray.h) and replaced it with a better implemeneted ScopedArray class.
* Removed toUTF8 class, which I only added a couple weeks ago because I didn't realize wxCharBuffer had an implicit typecast to (char*).
* Implemented more Source/Listener events for Pcsx2App. CoreThread events are sourced properly now, and added SettingsApplied and SettingsLoadSave Sources.
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@2010 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* Removed EBP push/pop stuff from the recExecute of the R5900 and R3000A both (not needed anymore since we disabled EBP in iCore).
* Moved the legacy j8ptr and j32ptr buffers to iCore, since they'll go obsolete at the same time iCore does; and nothing outside PCSX2 references them.
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@2009 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
Fixed: More savestate slowness, and less savestate memory hogging.
SPU2-X: Fixed crash bug on using savestates while suspended.
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@1994 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* Switched the SysCoreThread to a static (fully persistent) thread.
* Added some listeners for when the CoreThread status changes
* fixed some slowness in savestates, and the emu will now stall until savestates complete, if you try to exit too quick (avoids savestate corruption)
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@1993 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* Completely new assertion macros: pxAssert, pxAssertMsg, and pxFail, pxAssertDev (both which default to using a message). These replace *all* wxASSERT, DevAssert, and jASSUME varieties of macros. New macros borrow the best of all assertion worlds: MSVCRT, wxASSERT, and AtlAssume. :)
* Rewrote the Console namespace as a structure called IConsoleWriter, and created several varieties of ConsoleWriters for handling different states of log and console availability (should help reduce overhead of console logging nicely).
* More improvements to the PersistentThread model, using safely interlocked "Do*" style callbacks for starting and cleaning up threads.
* Fixed console logs so that they're readable in Win32 notepad again (the log writer adds CRs to naked LFs).
* Added AppInit.cpp -- contains constructor, destructor, OnInit, and command line parsing mess.
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@1950 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* Re-enabled function-level linking in the shared properties sheets (applies to debug and devel builds, and is ignored in release builds). Can't remember why it got disabled in the first place, but whatever errors it was causing seem to be gone now.
* Removed the wxWidgets 2.9/3.0 copy of wxScopedPtr (wx/scopedptr.h), since we have a new superior implementation of our own.
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@1949 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* Rewrote Savestate code, fixed lots of stuff in PersistentThread, and renamed most "Emu"s to "Sys".
* Removed wxScopedPtr and whipped up our own ScopedPtr that doesn't use boost's fail-style function names (and made it more thread-safe).
* Handling exceptions across threads: Added Clone() and Rethrow() methods to BaseException, and added a Rethrow() to PersistentThread.
* Go rid of AppInvoke macros (those were nasty!)
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@1929 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* Implemented a combination static link and dynamic link system; threads still benefit from DLL-level thread management, but speed-critical actions (semaphore and mutex locks) can now inline their "accelerated" interlocks properly. Should be a nice speedup.
* Implemented a highly optimized pthread_testcancel(), that typically performs its test in a single cycle. :)
* Disabled static mutexes. They aren't needed in C++ code, and reduce mutex locking overhead nicely.
* Use intrin.h for Interlocked functions, instead of pthreads' built in ones.
* Reverted my previous commit, since TLS isn't safe in DLLs. (oops!)
* Disabled pthread_spin API, it's not entirely cross-platform and shouldn't be used anyway (bad threading model for modern computing)
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@1925 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
Also added suggested interface for plugins for whenever the plugin apis are updated.
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@1907 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
PCSX2/Win32:
* Assigned names to the threads so that they show up nicely in the debugger.
* Added more error checking in the new stdout/stderr PipeRedirection code, hopefully fixing Issue 422 (but can't reproduce the error here to be sure).
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@1904 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* handful of minor code cleanups, and some warning removals for ICC.
* replaced the dualshock.png with a dualshock.jpg (120k smaller!)
* Updated the About Box, and added Zeydlitz / ZZogl to the plugin author credits.
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@1902 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
Projects: Removed FrameworkVersion descriptor, don't think it matters for C++ code. Removed all translation files, since they're grossly out-dated and need to be remade anyway.
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@1894 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* Lots of crashfixes and threading rules compliance (like using wxYield instead of ProcessPendingEvents)
* Killed off some memory corruption
* Better error handling and reporting
* Much speedier suspend/resume during emulation
* Revamped entire savestate system to use a RIFF-style file format (untested, will work on it soon)
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@1832 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
MemoryCard / Multitap Renovations:
* Memorycards should now support multitap (somewhat untested)
* Implemented a memorycard plugin interface, using the new API defined in PluginCallbacks.h (still prelim and hackish)
* Memorycard settings are saved to ini!
* Multitap is now controlled by PCSX2 instead of the pad plugin (which means no multitap until we implement the gui toggles to enable it)
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@1817 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
(note: Patch.cpp/Patch.h is still the odd child out in this commit, as it's destiny is to become a plugin)
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@1804 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* Fixed a bug in how I was (not) handling pthreads return codes. It's errno you need to check, *not* the function's return value. ;)
* Changed MTGS over to use the pthread_cleanup api.
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@1779 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* Fixed a deadlock in thread cancellation.
* Muted some folder warnings when running pcsx2 for the first time.
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@1778 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* Fixed some deadlock conditions by adding a message pump to semaphore waits ont he main/gui thread.
* Many more config and init bugfixes.
* Implemented most of the new Boot menu.
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/branches/wxgui@1745 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* Fixed thread classing so that detached pthreeads are handled safely, and so that virtual functions in C++ destructors are explicitly specified.
* Added some helper functions to Pcsx2App for safely executing menu commands form any thread in the emu.
* Fixed several minor bugs in settings / config handling.
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/branches/wxgui@1730 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* Moved some files around in an attempt to improve CoreEmu and UI separation.
* Major upgrade to the UI's handling of savestates
* Maintenance work to the C++ exception handling
* Some improved error handling and message popups here or there
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/branches/wxgui@1714 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
Basically this means whenever COP2 recs are used, its calling mVU instructions instead of sVU instructions.
Note: Theres a very-minor incompatibility problem when using interpreters/sVU for VU0 with mVU Macro. But I'll fix it later (and it probably doesn't effect much).
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@1710 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* synched with trunk to pick up all new cdvdiso fixes.
* configuration wizard now starts if pcsx2.ini is missing/deleted.
* changed GetWindowChild (MSW specific?) to FindWindow.
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/branches/wxgui@1696 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* Fixed like a gazillion bugs in the new CDVD system; memory corruption, memory leaks, failed resets, and who knows what else.
* New commandline parameters!! Added -skipbios/-nodisc/-usecdvd/-elf [file] options, intended replacements for the now obsolete -bootmode (bootmode should still work as it used to).
* fixed a bug that kept -help from working, and updated -help to display all the new command lines.
* -nogui command line now causes PCSX2 to close on escape, instead of escaping back to the GUI.
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@1684 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
Note: Nearly have a successfully booting branch! (bios crashes when it reaches CDVD api callbacks, should be a simple fix but it'll have to wait until later >_<)
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/branches/wxgui@1680 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
- Started implementing VU macro mode (code off by default)
- Disabled Constant Propagation for Jump Addresses (this rarely was a speedup, and it slowed down recompilation time a lot in some games causing bad slowdowns (GoW))
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@1675 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* Removed NoncopyableObject class and replaced it with a DeclareNoncopyableObject() macro -- which reports saner C++ compilation errors when the object copy is attempted.
* Improved first run wizard and several configuration panels.
* Moved the BIOS selector to its own menu item and dialog box, separate of the Settings panel.
* Fixed various bugs preventing configuration changes from being saved.
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/branches/wxgui@1658 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* Borrowed wxScopedPtr from wxWidgets 2.9
* Fixed up first-time startup procedures and folder selection
* Implemented most of the rest of the missing configuration options, and cleaned up some ambiguities regarding bool types and bitfields.
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/branches/wxgui@1649 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* Major cleanups and improvements to the Threading namespace.
* Created CoreEmuThread class framework, which currently runs the EEcore, IOP, and VUs with threadsafe suspension, reset, and resume features.
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/branches/wxgui@1624 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* finished most of the new plugin system (branch is buildable and runnable again, but no significant functionality has been added yet).
* Removed STGS code from the branch since I planned to kill it off anyway and it was more work to code proper support for it in wx than to remove it.
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/branches/wxgui@1595 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* Mostly finalized the i18n system.
* fully implemented the speedhacks dialog.
* improved the wxHelpers quite a lot.
* added a new gamefixes icon as put together by gigaherz.
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/branches/wxgui@1554 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
This patch by matsuri makes playing with vsync a lot nicer, so thanks for that one ;)
Note: For now its directx 10 only, due to dx9 needing a swapchain reset..
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@1526 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
I will later work on getting the typical plugins to support these new functions.
I have tried to also update the linux side, but I can't compile or test it so it might not work properly.
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@1511 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
I tried it and it seems to work, but I can't assure it's bugfree.
Next step is to implement internal blockdump creation and loading, and fix any problems ppl might have with this.
(And sorry for breaking linux on every commit I do. :P)
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@1496 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
The magic values for this setting were made for the old, sometimes failing system.
It should not be needed anymore, and testing confirmed that.
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@1485 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* Implemented internationalization (i18n) framework.
* Made a pretty configuration dialog box!
* Many minor bugfixes.
* Removed most of the old Win32 and Linux/GTK gui code because it was causing gettext cataloging to grab about 500 non-relevant strings (can always reference trunk for them anyway).
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/branches/wxgui@1484 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* Moved the x86 emitter to /common, so that plugins can link against it if they wish.
* Created a new "utility" class in /common which houses string utils, fast memcpy, common exception classes, and other handy dandies.
* Removed old-style linux automake files from the pcsx2 dir since they were hopelessly out of date (and their multi-file-per-line format makes svn merging impossible >_<)
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/branches/wxgui@1454 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
- DMA Execution hack - Fixes Fatal frame problems by ignoring dma transfers while another one is being executed.
- VU XGkick hack - Fixes Erementar Gerad by delaying XGkick. Similar to what SO3 needs, except this game needs more delay. Emulating this correctly is impossible with the current DMAC system, and will most-likely never be fixed correctly. The best (and fastest) way to simulate proper behavior is with a gamefix. (Super VU was doing this by a CRC hack, but I changed it to use this gamefix instead along with microVU.)
git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@1437 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
* Changed w32pthreads library into a DLL so that it can be used from plugins correctly. (NOTE: you will need to make sure to build and copy w32pthreads.dll into your pcsx2 folder).
* Switched pcsx2 from static CRT to shared CRT linking (needed to ensure correct exception handling behavior in multithreaded DLL environments).
* Switched all standard plugins in the Suite to the shared CRT, to match pcsx2's new style. :)
* Renamed _DEBUG (depreciated) to PCSX2_DEBUG (excluding Gabest projects since the ATL still uses it).
* Added intrin.h to Pcsx2Defs.h (so that it is included universally), and added intrin_x86.h for GCC compatibility.
Notes:
* Current plugin version compatibility status should be unaffected. The new shared-CRT plugins work fine with older versions of Pcsx2, and the older plugins should work fine with the new shared-CRT version of pcsx2; so long as the necessary CRT DLLs are available on the user's system.
* All future packagings of pcsx2 will include w32pthreads.dll and the Common Runtimes (CRTs).
* Existing users who do not have MSVC installed can obtain the CRTs by downloading the Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable Package (anyone with msvc installed should already have all they need).

- Removed flaghack1 since it didn't do much over flaghack2 (except break games :p).
Flaghack2 is now renamed to "Status Flag Hack", and so-far we haven't found a single game it breaks, so compatibility is high.

microVU speedhacks are also available in the speedhacks dialog.
All the GUI stuff took me a few hours, so hopefully I didn't bug anything.
Note to users:
Please remember that microVU is a W.I.P. and will have bugs; but it also fixes some games Super VU has problems with. So have fun testing.

* Smartened up the microprogram cache. Programs are (quite accurately) selected based on how often and how recently they have been used. Solves constant recompilation issues in games like FFXII and Tekken 5 [but not the SPS, sorry!].
* Changed memory allocation so that microprogram blocks are allocated *on demand* -- this saves a lot of memory and makes it possible to test 64-program caches (which would previously fail due to exceeding 2gb ram allocations!). Also fixed a few small memory bugs in Init/Alloc, and made it so mVU only allocates memory once instead of on every reset. :)
* Tweaked uses of progSize in microVU.h so that it's consistent [all instances of progSize are (vumem_size / 4) now]

CodeBlocks Project Changes:
* Fixed some absolute folder specifications (/home/pubuntu/) which went unnoticed.
* Enabled Precompiled header support (speeds up compilation about 40% for me).

Related new speed hack, fast-forward a block starting at 0x81FC0 which some games (FFX) run a lot. This block is also excluded from the previous feature.
Rearrange configuration file and speed hack dialog.

iMMI.cpp: Removed mucho dead pre-SSE2 code. (old code can be grabbed from a tagged revision, in case it's useful for future reference).

- added microVU_Execution.inl
- dispatcher stuff is now recompiled with pcsx2's emitter instead of using inline asm, its cleaner than inline asm and its more portable since the asm won't have to be ported to GCC.
- lots of first-pass implementation for lower opcodes
- implemented documented branch behavior (first pass stuff only)
Note: theres some undocumented stuff branches do according to Nneeve's tests, but i won't implement those for now since 99% of games shouldn't need it, and according to the tests, the behavior seems kind-of random/erratic.

* Fixed a couple potential bugs in some Rm forms of MMX instructions.
* Improved compilation times by isolating BaseBlockEx.h to the files the needed it (it uses STL junks).
* Removed some dead code form emitters and BaseBlockEx.

Disabled Edit and Continue and re-enabled optimizations in devel mode (thought I disabled Edit and Continue earlier, but I guess it didn't get saved/committed correctly).

- Moved one global variable for the VU interpreters, which surprisingly speeds up Star Ocean 3 for me.
- Set Flush to Zero for FPU and VU back to on. Let's see how long it lasts this time :p
- Removed the FFX hack from pcsx2! It's still toggled in the GS plugins, the correct behaviour is having it always on.

- Brought back a gamefix for Persona games. They still have missing geometry without it (VU clip flag problem)

Because of a convenient bug in load state function, older save states with no saved pad info should still work. Don't blame me if they don't, though.
