- properties names for 'Cartridge' changed to 'Cart'; this can speed up processing
- fixed several bugs in stella.pro (missing newlines)
- fixed 'create_props'; now it works from either the base directory or the tools directory
Reworked properties database names
- We've already removed it from the UI, now it's removed from consideration altogether
- For now, NTSC ROMS use 240, PAL 250; this will change when we get aspect ratio working
Clang 3.8, gcc 5, Visual Studio 2017 and Xcode 8 are now the minimum
supported compilers, and they all support C++14, so we may as well use it.
- Change all make_ptr to make_unique
- Change iterator begin(), end(), etc to const versions where appropriate
- Remove UniquePtr, since C++14 supports it natively
This has been in patch form for about a year, and I'm finally
getting around to applying it. Basically, we separate the Cart
class into 3 classes:
- Cart: stuff specific to cartridge emulation
- BSTypes: various bankswitch types, both as enum and strings
- CartDetector: actual bankswitch auto-detection code
Also made more use of smart pointers, and added const in a few
more places.
I promise to get back to the phosphor stuff soon. This is just
to clear my head a little.
For now, Blargg phosphor mode simply shows the same image as without phosphor.
This is a WIP, and if we can't get it finished for 5.0, it will be released as-is.
Phosphor blend now defaults to 0 in the base properties, and is converted to
50 before being passed to higher levels. This needs to change when we
get to issue #144.
- Updated default phosphor blend to '30'.
- Added shortcut keys Alt-i and Alt-o to decrease/increase phosphor
blend mode dynamically, while a ROM is running.
- Made range of blending 0 - 100.
devices under Linux. This is needed since SDL2 doesn't currently allow
to change the deadzone, which is causing problems with the various
'daptor devices, particularly with paddles.
Removed redundant patch for SDL2 in Windows to not 'beep' when an
'Alt' key is pressed; this functionality is now upstream in SDL 2.0.4.

Added updated C++14 make_unique templates, which now allow to also
use unique_ptr for arrays.
Updated SoundSDL class to use unique_ptr, eliminating another new/delete
pair.

Added a specific closeConsole method, since the test for hasConsole was returning
true in cases where it shouldn't have.
Fixed PERL PropSet saving so that properties are always saved in sorted order
(by MD5). This isn't technically necessary, but it will eliminate huge changelogs
when only a small part of the file has changed.

I've found and fixed a few memory leaks. You will need an up-to-date compiler.

manually up to this point:
- 'rom_diff.pl' command inspects two directories and looks at differences
in filenames, and copies ROMs into 3 new directories (ADDED, REMOVED,
and CHANGED). This is most useful for when RomHunter releases new
romsets.
- 'merge_props.pl' command merges all properties from a source file that
also exist in a destination file. This is useful when I do a mass-edit
of many ROMs, with the info being saved into my personal stella.pro file.
Running this command afterwards will 'merge' them into the master
stella.pro file, and then Stella can be recompiled with the new properties.

Checking in first pass at revamping the 'mcontrol' functionality. The idea is
that the mouse will be able to emulate different controllers on each of its
axes. For now, the left mouse button is tied to the X-axis, and the right to
the Y-axis. These modes will be saved per-ROM, meaning that the mapping can
be different for each ROM (it is saved as part of the ROM properties). Only
the paddles and driving controllers will allow this, since they're the only
controllers where a single axis makes sense.
Switching between mouse modes will be done with Control-0 (the Control-1..3
keys have been removed). This will allow switching all possible combinations
(left controller, right controller, per-ROM setting, etc).

these logs!
Moved TODO and Credits info directly to the webpage, where it will hopefully
be easier to maintain.
Fixed 'crackling' sound when loading a new ROM, introduced with the 3.5
sound restructuring. It looks like stale data was being loaded by the
sound processing callback. As well, moved the computation of certain
division variables from the sound callback to the framerate re-calculator
(where it's recomputed 1/5 of the time or less).
Updated AboutDialog with info about Stella DonationWare status, and active
members of Stella development.
Updated OSX in-app HTML documentation about Stella DonationWare status.
Bumped version # to 3.5.1_svn, and the process starts again.

Also, fixed a potential future bug where Stella can't handle paletted
images. Basically, the error handling is now more robust.
Minor rework of the CartF8 class; it now looks the ROM MD5 directly and
decides if it's a 'special' ROM.
Several updates to the built-in properties database, including better
support for each game in the 8-in-1 ROM image.
Fixed crash in TIA handling of the playfield mask; it could cause a
segfault under certain circumstances.
Fixed bug in prune_snapshots script; it now properly handles directory
names containing spaces in both Linux and OSX (and probably Windows as
well, but this hasn't been tested).
Updated built-in PNG library to the latest version (1.4.3).
