- Fix#463.
Add option to remove all configuration related to checking for updates
online. Although it is not implemented at the moment, these options
appeared on our menu `Options` > `General ...`.
- Fix need of patch on #140.
It is not possible to pre-select a file with `wxFilePickerCtrl`. Hence,
we add a label to show the current gopts.{gba_bios,gb_bios,gbc_bios} is
being used, if any.
- Fix remaining of #196.
Several toggle options from the main menu could not be handled by the
key shortcuts. This was mainly because the code was only checking if
they were ticked or not.
When a key shortcut was pressed, the key itself did not trigger the
tick of the box from the menu, hence nothing was being done.
We are not setting the debug ones because they are not being missed
by the users (yet).
- Fix remaining of #88.
We use the following key input if the config `vbam.ini` does not exist:
input | keyboard
A | A
B | S
L | Q
R | W
SELECT | Z
START | X
We also set a joystick default, using the XBOX 360 controller as a
base.
- Fix#463.
The idea of these was to show them available in `Options` >
`Key shortcuts` and allow the user to rebind them. We want the users to
use the keys rather than trying to change the volume via menu actions.
Similar update to GBA which does the following:
- reduces input lag by 1 frame by reading user input at beginning of cpu loop
- audio and video timing update, which sends audio and video at every frame possible
- add missing sound state variable, soundTicks for gb and gba
Map initial state of axis to 0. This is sufficient for the time being
for the 360 triggers to work better.

It looks like that when we use the `Simple` output module, we get

This issues does not appear when using OpenGL, or using the Simple with
any display filter available.

We use the same event for both keybinding and `Emulation` > `Pause`
actions. The issue here is that the menu item is checkable, meaning
that you toggle its value and then run the handler.
The handler checks the value of the menu item `Emulation` > `Pause`,
and toggle the game pause accordingly. Such thing does not happen when
using the keybinding. Hence, it did not toggle the pause as expected.

Correct set WXK_NUMPAD_{ADD,SUBTRACT} for default volume controls and
enable users to change it via menu "Options > Key Shortcuts".
Also allow users to use both these buttons for other input.
Some keybindings were not handled by the frame. That includes some
wxAcceleratorEntry keys. On Linux, if you set a key shortcut using a key
with no modifier ("U" for "Input > Configure"), pressing the key would
not lead to anything.
This is very likely related to wxGTK, although it is not possible to
confirm this at the moment.
Whenever users try to remove the system keys shortcuts, the
configuration file is overwritten and only records the last erase.
For example, if we wish to remove all the auto{A,B,L,R} keys at once,
we get the following writes on the configuration file:
NOOP=ALT+1,ALT+2,ALT+3,ALT+4
NOOP=ALT+2,ALT+3,ALT+4
NOOP=ALT+3,ALT+4
NOOP=ALT+4
Only `NOOP=ALT+4` stays for the following execution.
Whenever there is a link connection for GBA, we check if "GBA/LinkHost"
is an empty string. If it is, we send this warning. This is unnecessary
because most connections are assumed to be for localhost, otherwise the
user would set a server ip address and not see this warning.
Currently, if we maximize the window, our windowPosition{X,Y} become 0.
When reopening the app, we have a window with the same size of a
maximized, but without this property toggled on. This is not intuitive
for users, since it is expected to have the last non-maximized size
to be restored.
If the status bar option is enabled or disabled, there is a trigger that
resizes the current window geometry to its zoom configuration. What
should happen instead is the size remain the same.
In the `OnKeyDown` event handler, check if the key is actually pressed
using `wxGetKeyState()`, because for some reason on Ubuntu 18
spurious events are generated when the key is not actually pressed.
Also, if a game is paused by the frontend while a key is being pressed,
the key will remain active for the game when unpaused. This is an
issue because the key will likely be released outside of the game zone;
therefore, we would not process the key release for the game itself.
The same bug happens if clicking outside of the game zone while
holding a key.
For the case of a directional key, this means a continuous movement
in the direction of the key pressed before the pause until the key
is pressed and released.
Joysticks have their own set of {KEY,MOD,JOY}, what means that setting
everything for MOD=0 is a mistake. We need to deal only with keyboard
mappings here.
as a mapping key (#142).
When holding a key(W,A,S,D) and then pressing a modifier(SHIFT,CTRL,ALT),
we get two sets {MOD,MOD,0} and {KEY,MOD,0} with MOD > 0 after a
{KEY,0,0}. When releasing the initial key while holding the modifier,
we search for {KEY,MOD,0} instead of {KEY,0,0} to be removed.
Finally, when releasing the modifier, we remove {MOD,MOD,0} from our
stack. This means the {KEY,0,0} stays "pressed", although no input
is being taken from the keyboard.
Full example using WASD as movement keys and L_SHIFT as our B button.
1. Press and hold "A" --> add {A,0,0} to stack;
2. Press "L_SHIFT" --> add {L_SHIFT,4,0} and {A,4,0} to stack;
3. Release "A" --> remove {A,4,0} from stack (no effect);
4. Release "L_SHIFT" --> remove {L_SHIFT,4,0} from stack;
5. {A,0,0} still on stack.
No keyboard button is being pressed anymore, but there is a continuous
movement towards the direction mapped by "A" {A,0,0}. It is only fixed
when "A" is pressed two times in succession, because we don't add
duplicate sets to our stack, but try to remove them anyway.
Before trying to rename `vbam.conf` to `vbam.ini`, as we decided during
the XDG support work, first check if `vbam.ini` does not already exist.
If it already exists, use `vbam.ini` and do nothing with the
`vbam.conf`.

Make some changes to support out-of-the-box builds on FreeBSD:
- set cmake OpenGL type to `LEGACY`, the new `GLVND` type produces
unusable binaries on FreeBSD
- on FreeBSD add -I/usr/local/include to compiler flags, why this is
necessary I don't know
- look for llvm tools such as `llvm-ar` in `/usr/local/llvm-devel/bin`,
LTO works
- improve the `find_wx_util()` cmake function to handle `wx-config`
scripts named in the form e.g. `wxgtk3u-3.1-config`
- add FreeBSD support to `installdeps`
- make some minor changes to included headers based on macros such as
`__FreeBSD__` to compile on FreeBSD, including adding a `BSD.h` header
with some defines for e.g. `fseeko64`
- move the cmake X11 detection to before the wx compile tests, because

Previously when working on Visual Studio support I noticed an XRC error
dialog when adding the game area to the BoxSizer.
I tried removing the wxEXPAND flag with insufficient testing, the flag
is actually necessary.
The error is actually an incorrect debug assertion that is present in

the project is built in release mode.

Use vcpkg to build deps when Visual Studio on Windows is detected, this
only happens on first build, but does take a while because things like
wxWidgets need to be built. Building from the developer command line is
also supported.
I considered making a pre-built tarball available, but the resulting
files are just too big for this to be practical.
Make the necessary cmake code changes for this to work and to use the
vcpkg packages, which work just like on linux or have other cmake glue
code available.
To do this, we make vcpkg a submodule, use git to checkout all
submodules, then just build and use the `vcpkg.exe`. Then we set the
CMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE to the vcpkg toolchain and also include it
directly, why this is necessary I don't know, without it it doesn't work
in the IDE but does on the command line.
All of this requires no vcpkg integration with either the user or the
project. A user-wide `ENV{VCPKG_ROOT}` is also supported.
Fix the dynamic arrays in the GBA core, MSVC follows the C++ standard on
this and gcc does not.
TODO: add the necessary gcc flags to make this an error in cmake.
Use `wxArrayString` instead of `std::vector<wxString>` in
`src/wx/strutils.cpp` which is used in options parsing. This was
necessary because of a bizarre linker error with wxWidgets when using
Visual Studio:
https://trac.wxwidgets.org/ticket/10884#comment:46
In `src/wx/panel.cpp` make sure the unimplemented D3D renderer code does
not get compiled if it's actually `OFF`.
Also fix the new spacer code for the drawing panel to not combine
`wxEXPAND` with `wxALIGN_CENTER`, which is an error on wxWidgets 3.1.2,
which is what vcpkg uses. The drawing panel seems to be automatically
stretched to the max size automatically anyway.
TODO: if all of this works, we'll need an Appveyor set up for visual
studio.

Store the full relative path to found `.rpi` plugins, relative to the

This fixes the problem of plugins being in a subdirectory while only the

`wxFileName::GetFullName()` with a relative filename instance.
Make a `GetPluginsDir()` method on the app class to simplify getting
this directory, and for possible future overrides.
Also make some minor, functionally equivalent changes to
`get_config_path()` in `wxvbam.cpp`:
- use the new `GetPluginsDir()` method for the plugins directory when
building the config file search path
- print the XdgConfigDir on all platforms, since the function works on
all platforms
- make a `add_nonstandard_path` macro which duplicates the `add_path`
macro for wxWidgets standard paths but for any arbitrary string path
- use `wxFileName` methods to make the XDG config directory path instead
of string concatenation
