An upcoming commit will make the sound headers standalone, and no longer include various other headers / using std:: declarations. Prepare for this by making includes and usage of namespaces explicit.
Cache the parsed navigation and airport data in a binary file to reduce
startup times and memory consumption (since only referenced FGPositioned
elements are held in memory).
Data will be reimported when the mod-time of any input file is changed.
If a global file is changed (nav.dat, awy.dat, apt.dat, etc), the cache
will be completely rebuilt, which takes approximately 30 seconds on
moderate hardware. (Future work may reduce this).
Here comes the work-in-progres code for a new navradio
implementation. Once completed, it will replace the
old/current navradio implementation.
The new code can be activated by setting
/instrumentation/use-new-navradio=true
at startup. This disables the old navradio implementation.
Current state:
- VOR works pretty good including the new
functionality 'code of confusion'.
- LOC and GS basically work
- backward compatibility (many properties) is to be implemented
