Making it hardcoded because:
* This is the only place where it could happen
* It is the second time in history of ScummVM when we renamed
and engine (the first one was Simon -> AGOS)
Thus, there is a little sense in creating a universal solution.
- MEC: MetaEngineConnect.
- How do games handle save/load if MetaEngine (detection) is seperate from MetaEngineConnect (engine factory)?
- Most of the changes are quite similiar. ConfMan finds us the relevant MetaEngine, then simply use the new helpers from PluginMan.
- The new helpers will help convert a relevant MetaEngine into the other format or vice versa.
- Once the matching is complete, simply invoke functions by:
plugin->get<MetaEngineConnect>().engineMethod();
- Refer to previous commits to see the new class changes & notes.
- In runGame(), in main.cpp, we get a plugin of type MetaEngine.
- This MetaEngine cannot createInstances, but it just a helper class.
- Connect a MetaEngine class with it's factory class - MetaEngineConnect.
- Then, simply call the method.
- Changed so we can get any type of plugins.
- This used to always return PLUGIN_TYPE_ENGINE.
- Because now we can differentiate between engines and metaengine, this must be changed.
- For now, return METAENGINE by default
- Do NOT use pluginMan and load plugins, etc, etc.
- Get MetaEngines from memory, since they're always built in statically.
- Use detectGames method to detect games.
- MetaEngines will now always go to the executable.
- But, because they still live in engine projects and are connected via a macro, they will need to be differentiated from Engines.
- This macro, and it's use in future will help in that.
Enabled system API for begin/end gfx transactions, initSize, setGraphicsMode.
Function setGraphicsMode will use optional params to trigger 3d rendering
and switch to proper SDL Gfx manager.
Currently, the plugin architecture searches for plugins in ScummVM's
base directory and in the plugins directory itself.
However, for Win32, we need to bundle several DLL files in order to
make ScummVM run at all. Currently, this leads to several warning
messages since ScummVM tries to load those DLLs as plugins.
This patch excludes the ScummVM base directory when running on Win32 and
only accepts plugins from the plugins directory.
This commit addresses a range of changes, within scummvm subproject.
- Audio files, like mididrv, remove U32String based name and identifier, because ASCII only.
- mididrv.cpp had some wrong format for warning messages, fix those
- Message dialogs were modified to use default arguments more often, but reverting back to the orignal to minimize changes.
- SetTooltip has a fake constructor that takes in a string, and use it.
- U32Format had some break statements missing, add those.
- RemapWidget: Use fake constructor for setLabel and setTooltip, to make minimal changes
- SDL: setting text in clipboard no longer uses SDL_iconv_string
- TTS: Override base class "say" with strings, so tts->say can be used with normal strings too.
- About dialog: fix incorrect code for u32string variables
- Fix some extra brackets
- Some buttons were incorrectly removed from using translated labels, revert those
- Message Dialog: Pass default and alt buttons as const references
- Saveload Dialog: Use translations in missing places, use const-references. Also, use translations in a correct manner.
- Use const references for tooltip in GraphicsWidget, EditTextWidget, error.cpp
- DomainEditTextWidget: Use U32String for text
Up until last commit, everything was working fine but the amount of files changed was too large. This commit tries to reduce the changes.
- Add a fake constructor to Keymap, text-to-speech, setDescription (save-state)
- Redirecting functions for PopUpWidget::appendEntry, ButtonWidget::setLabel, GUIErrorMessage
- Use the above functions and constructors to reduce changes in Engines
- Fix warnings being in unicode. Only output english text in - Warnings, Errors, etc.
- Mark some strings as "translation" strings. (Not yet added to POTFILES)
- Remove some CP related things from po/modules.mk
- Previously used some Common::convertToU32 where it was not necessary, replace this with u32constructor
