- this exposed a bizarre issue on Mac where dragging in <AGL/agl.h> in
extensions.hxx was pulling in all of Carbon to the global namespace
- very scary. As a result, I now need to explicitly include CoreFoundation
in fg_init.cxx.
- change SG_USING_STD(x) to using std::x
SimGear change. It changes all the SG_xxxx to be the 'real' includes, and gets
rid of many #ifdef SG_HAVE_STD_INCLUDES. As an added bonus, rather than
replacing 'SG_USING_NAMESPACE(std)' with 'using namespace std', I just fixed
the small number of places to use std:: explicitly. So we're no longer polluting
the global namespace with the entire contents of std, in many cases.
There is one more 'mechanical' change to come - getting rid of SG_USING_STD(X),
but I want to keep that separate from everything else. (There's another
mechnical change, replacing <math.h> with <cmath> and so on *everywhere*, but
one step at a time)
- remove the OSX_BUNDLE crap *I* introduced years ago - we're always a a bun
dle on Mac now.
- fix up the default fg-root on Mac to be FlightGear.app/Contents/Resources/
data - i.e the location used by the macflightgear.org distro, and indeed the obv
ious 'correct' location. Not sure why I didn't use that in the first place, back
in the day.
- remove the CPSForegroundEnable hack. For one thing, we're a bundle and don
't need it, and for another, osgViewer on Mac does the same logic using a newer,
public API rather than a hack into the OS.
- remove the strange logic for doing fgOSInit 'early' (in bootstrap rather t
han main) when running from the command line on Mac; again this is obsolete, and
no one seems to know why it was ever necessary. I guess it was an interaction w
ith SDL when running without a bundle.
- (not Mac related) remove obsolete code bracketed by ENABLE_PLIB_JOYSTICK a
nd USE_GLIDE (neither of which are ever set, even from config.h that I can see)
in main.cxx
throwing an instance of 'sg_io_exception'\nAbandon". And this is caused
by compiling fgfs/sg without exception support (unlikely) or linking
against a libSDL/libglut that was compiled/linked without execption
support. While we can't fix that, we can tell the users who's to blame. :-)
- handle const char * exceptions
Here is one patch that to make FlightGear run without floating point
exceptions on FreeBSD. Apparently, if we do not ignore floating point
exceptions per this patch, there is some occasional condition where the
nvidia driver is involved in delivering spurious floating point exceptions
to the fgfs process, causing it to core-dump occasionally without the patch.
With only this patch, FlightGear will compile and run properly on
FreeBSD 6.X as long as the nvidia accelerated driver is installed,
modulo proper switches to the SimGear and FlightGear configure script
executions.
Again, kudos to your team for the great work on the big release
push; it is super to see things come together like this!
This is a patch to make display list usage optional. They are on by default.
Use --prop:/sim/rendering/use-display-list=false to use immediate mode.
There is also a change in exception handling in main.cxx and bootstrap.cxx
This patch is for windows only. It hides the console window
until there is a message to print. It only support SG_LOG,
that I think is the right way to display something in FG.
Here's a patch to locate the base package inside the application bundle on OS-X. The patch also disables the CPSForeground hack in boostrap.cxx, which is unnecessary if the we're running as a proper bundle rather than a Unix command line program.
Both of these changes are only compiled if OSX_BUNDLE is defined (I'm doing this via a setting in ProjectBuilder), so if you're building on OS-X using configure + make, you shouldn't see any chance.
