Make a single Cmake value to expose the build type to code, and use
this to default a run-time ‘developer-mode’ property, which can be
over-ridden from the command line.
Use this to drive the different warning levels. Policies subject to
review, especially whether nightly builds should default to
developer mode or not.
Remove uses of .str(), .c_str() and some other methods of SGPath.
Pass SGPath directly where possible, or explicitly convert to the
appropriate 8-bit encoding.
the static system has an optional "tau" parameter to
define the rate at which the output value changes.
Setting this value to zero now disables the filter.
This prevents wrong airspeed indications on rapid
altitude changes. No functional changes if tau has
other-than-zero values (e.g. the default systems).
Replace many lingering calls to exit() from the code,
replacing most with exception throws, which can be
caught by the existing mechanisms.
Update the option-parsing code to return an explicit
value indicating what to do (e.g., exit status to return
to the shell).
added measured-total-pressure property to account for a normal
shockwave in front of pitot tube at supersonic speeds. momentarily not

small unit conversion correction of inHg to hPa in altimeter

Add helper to look for an aircraft branch path in multiple candidate locations.
Update the main subsystems to use the helper, and hence load from any aircraft dir.
- 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)
at all is that this method is meant to be deprecated. But if it doesn't
say that, and there's no generic replacement at all, then it's rather
pointless.
- simplify parameter initialization (The old code copied from Instrumentation/
but has been simplified there in the same manner a few months ago
The new method is less picky about additional nodes ane outputs less
pointless alerts. If there shall really be a check for that, then
this should be a separate function. But it's nowhere else done in fgfs.
SGPropertyNode to guarded ones. This is also done for JSBSim/JSBSim.hxx,
for which JSB had given explicit permission a while ago. I postponed that
back then, but now is the time.
* Use "const string&" rather than "string" in function calls when appropriate.
* Use "const Point3D&" instead of "Pint3D" in function calls when appropriate.
* Improved course calculation in calc_gc_course_dist()
* Safer thread handling code.
Vassilii Khachaturov:
Dont use "const Point3D&" for return types unless you're absolutely sure.
Erik Hofman:
* Use SGD_(2)PI(_[24]) as defined in simgear/constants.h rather than
calculating it by hand every time.
modeling of a simple single vacuum system with a pump source on each engine
in a multiengine aircraft. The highest rpm engine takes priority for driving
the vacuum system.
- replay.cxx :
corrected a bug, now reinitialize the recording data when replay is
deactivated
- fgclouds.cxx :
cloud layers and weather condition are saved when choosing a weather scenario,
added a new scenario 'none' so we can switch back to standard flightgear
weather
- navradio.cxx :
force a search() on init to initialize some variables, preventing a nearly
infinite loop when delta-time == 0 on the first update()
- electrical.cxx :
uninitialized variable in apply_load() for FG_EXTERNAL supplier
- panel.cxx, panelnode.cxx :
added a property "depth-test" for 2.5D panels so that they update the depth
buffer and are no more visible from the outside of the aircraft when the
aircraft uses textures without an alpha channel
- panel.cxx :
moved the computation of the instruments diffuse color outside the
texturelayer code since this is constant during a frame, this is a big speedup
for 2D panels
These changes represent some attempts to bandaid and patch a hopelessly
flawed system to impliment basic battery charging/discharging as well as
provide the ability to model ammeter gauges and draw current from multiple
sources (like load balancing multiple alternators in a multi-engine aircraft.)
The system design forces all these things to be horrible hacks or depend
on extremely subtle system side effects and call ordering so they may or9
may not work to one degree or another.
As mentioned in the mailing list, my recommendation is to move away from
using this system and instead build a procedural electrical system using
nasal. Sometime in the future we hopefully can impliment a better conceived
data driven electrical system model.
