The test_suite/helpers directory has been renamed to test_suite/FGTestApi/ and
all the fgtest namespaces renamed to FGTestApi. The helper functions are now
also placed into either a setUp or tearDown namespace depending on their
function. And a new FGTestApi::PrivateAccessor::FDM namespace has been created
for holding friend classes used to access private or protected variables or
functions from solely within the test suite.
A resource can be specified with the syntax:
[addon=ADDON_ID]relative/path
Such a resource corresponds to the file $addon_base_path/relative/path
for the specific add-on whose identifier is ADDON_ID.
If the particular add-on isn't registered, looking up such a resource
throws sg_exception.
(everything described here lives in the namespace flightgear::addons)
New classes: Author, Maintainer, and Contact. Author and Maintainer
derive from Contact. For each contact, the following can be defined in
addon-metadata.xml: name, email, and url. See [1] for details about the
syntax and usage policy. Nasal bindings have been updated accordingly,
there are three new ghosts: addons.Contact, addons.Author and
addons.Maintainer.
The enum class UrlType has two new members: author and maintainer. The
Addon::getUrls() method has a new signature:
std::multimap<UrlType, QualifiedUrl> getUrls() const;
because non-empty 'url' fields for authors and maintainers contribute to
the result, and there can be an arbitrary number of authors and an
arbitrary number of maintainers defined for a given add-on---therefore,
std::map can't be used anymore.
Finally, QualifiedUrl has a new field (detail) which stores the author
name (resp. maintainer name) when the QualifiedUrl type is
UrlType::author (resp. UrlType::maintainer). Currently, this 'detail'
field is not used for other URL types, but this could be changed if
desired.

This commit adds C++ classes for add-on management, most notably
AddonManager, Addon and AddonVersion. The AddonManager is used to
register add-ons. It relies on an std::map<std::string, AddonRef> to
hold the metadata of each registered add-on (keys of the std::map are
add-on identifiers, and AddonRef is currently SGSharedPtr<Addon>).
Accessor methods are available for:
- retrieving the list of registered or loaded add-ons (terminology
explained in $FG_ROOT/Docs/README.add-ons);
- checking if a particular add-on has already been registered or
loaded;
- for each add-on, obtaining an Addon instance which can be queried
for its name, id, version, base path, the minimum and maximum
FlightGear versions it requires, its base node in the Property Tree,
its order in the load sequence, short and long description strings,
home page, etc.
The most important metadata is made accessible in the Property Tree
under /addons/by-id/<addon-id> and the property
/addons/by-id/<addon-id>/loaded can be checked or listened to, in
order to determine when a particular add-on is loaded. There is also a
Nasal interface to access add-on metadata in a convenient way.
In order to provide this metadata, each add-on must from now on have in
its base directory a file called 'addon-metadata.xml'.
All this is documented in much more detail in
$FG_ROOT/Docs/README.add-ons.

At the moment, this is dead code: only the tests are compiled. FG is still compiled without this code.
A new directory is created that contains all the numerical computations made to estimate the wake induced by AI aircrafts. This is based on the venerable Vortex Lattice Method (VLM) which was all the rage in the 60's Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD).
Even though quite old, the method is relevant to compute aircrafts wake in real time since 3D Navier-Stokes (NS3D) is out of reach for real time computations even with modern multicore personal computers and their GPUs.
There was a couple of typos in the routine. This code will be used by the AI wake feature.
Also added a test for the matrix code to make sure they will be no regression.
Also build the test code first, so tests can reside in source tree as
well as the test tree.
Finally, build local Sqlite with -fpic to give consistent linkage when
using either built-in or system sqlite.
If GPerfTools and/or the SYSTEM_SQLITE options are enabled, the test
suite fails to build (GPerfTools is not linked explicitly in CMakeLists.txt,
but becomes required by SimGear, so the linker failes with an "undefined
reference" error; the SQLite library the test suite links against is always
hardcoded to the FG-provided one).
This patch adds the GPerfTools library to the target link libraries
(if the profiler is enabled) and links to the system SQLite library
whenever SYSTEM_SQLITE is enabled.
Compile a useful subset of FG as a shared library, and add two basic
uses of this to exercise some Flightplan / RoutePath / navaid
functions.
The test framework can/will be expanded incrementally from here, this
is just a starting point.
