configure and compile out-of-the-box on a MinGW target:
Use -lSDL instead of -lglut32 on windows builds when --enable-sdl
is set.
Link against alut.dll in addition to openal32.dll.
Replace BSD bcopy() with ANSI C memmove() in a few places. This is
simpler than trying to abstract it out as a platform dependency in a
header file; bcopy() has never been standard.
The ENABLE_THREADS handling has changed to be set to 0 when threads
are not in use. This breaks expressions like #ifdef ENABLE_THREADS.
Replace with a slightly more complicated expression. It might have
been better to fix the configure.ac script, but I didn't know how and
this whole setting is likely to go away soon anyway.
The MinGW C runtime actually does include snprintf, so only MSVC
builds (and not all WIN32 ones) need _snprintf in JSBSim/FGState.cpp
Building on a platform with no glut at all exposed some spots where
plib/pu.h was being included without a toolkit setting (it defaults to
glut). Include fg_os.hxx first.
And when still using glut, glut.h has a bizarre dependency on a
_WCHAR_T_DEFINED symbol. It it's not defined, it tries to redefine
(!!) wchar_t to disasterous effect.
I have added a fledgling replay system that records flight data and control
positions during the flight.
I have added an internal command called "replay" which will trigger a replay
of the entire saved flight data set. This could be bound to a keyboard or
menu command, in fact this entire module is screaming for someone to build
a gui to control playback speed, amount of playback, etc.
This is the initial version so there are kinks that still need to be worked
out, please be patient.
Here are the two modifications I had to make to get flightgear (just
updated from CVS) to build. The first one is for being able to specify
SimGear's location at the ./configure command line, and the second one
is to be able to link.
menubar. This one allows regular command bindings, with the
(temporary) condition that every menu item must have a unique text
label. The new menubar is disabled by default; to enable it,
configure --with-new-menubar.
input bindings. They will work only with the latest CVS; otherwise,
./configure will disable them. There is a new command, 'script',
which takes a single argument, also called 'script', containing PSL
code (currently PSL requires a main() function).
Erik Hofman has written some more elaborate code for triggering PSL
code from drop-down menus and scheduling events; I will look at
integrating that next.
