- 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.
- Add a contains utility function to ustr
- setFilter uses U32String and U32Tokenizers
- Make consequent changes in launcher to allow sending u32strings
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
- Remove extra parantheses leftover from temp code
- SaveLoadDialog - do not encode when setting labels
- Remove mapping variable from ThemeEngine::loadScalableFont (and use default 0)
- Remove incorrect u32 constructor wrapper from confman.set in eventrecorder.cpp
This commit also includes some additional major changes.
- Return U32String from TransMan getTranslation()
- Change tooltips to be U32Strings
- Remove temporary code of convertToU32String
- U32 Support various dialogs (Browser, FileBrowser, Messages, Chooser, etc)
- U32 for music plugins
- U32 for OSD messages
- Add some helper functions to ustr.cpp
- Change default tooltips from nullptr & 0 -> ""
- Some runtime exceptions may occur when changing languages due to incorrect String::Format
- ButtonWidgets (Button, Radio, Checkbox, dropdown)
- StaticTextWidgets
- PopUpWidgets
- Tabs
- Add a temporary overloaded drawDDText function to make other widgets draw normally
Some platforms should not allow quitting ScummVM. For example the Apple's
HUG for iOS state that we should "Never quit an iOS applications
programmatically". Adding the kFeatureNoQuit allows those backend
that need it to remove the possibility to quit the application.
Prior to this change, a GUI layout was only affected by the screen size.
Now, a layout can additionally be influenced by the GUI dialog and widgets
that uses it. This capability is leveraged to implement the following
features:
* Layout elements that are not bound to a GUI widget do not take space.
This means that dialogs where the widgets shown depend on for example
a feature being enabled at configure time no longer have blank spaces.
* Widgets can define a minimal required size for their contents not to be
cut. For now this is only used for buttons so their width is always
sufficient for their caption not to be cut. This mechanism could be
applied to other widget types in the future.
The engineId, gameId and description come from static data in the game
engines. When the game engines are compiled as dynamic plugins, the QGD
structure may outlive the engine plugin. Making a copy ensures the data
remains available.
Fixes#11292.
DropdownButtonWidget is a button split in two parts vertically. Clicking
the left part triggers a default action. Clicking the right part shows a
list of other actions the user can choose from.
Using this widget on the launcher lets 'Mass add' be a secondary action
of the 'Add' button, removing the necessity of pressing the shift key to
access the feature.
Qualified game names have the following form: engineId:gameId.
Unqualified game names are still supported as long as they are not
ambiguous. However they are considered deprecated and are no longer
displayed by the --list-games command.
The engine ID identifies which engine should be used to launch the target.
Also remove the 'single ID' system. Different games from engines that used
that system now have different game IDs.

* The list of candidates now includes unknown variants. When an unknown
variant is selected, the unknown game dialog is shown.
* On the unknown game dialog, users are given the choice to add the game
when that is possible, or to cancel.
The goal of those changes is to make the unknown game dialog less
confusing for users, especially when both known and unknown games
variants are found.
Previously, a C-style cast was used to convert a
Common::Array<Plugin *>, populated with pointers to StaticPlugin
and DynamicPlugin instances, to a
Common::Array<PluginSubclass<T> *>, but PluginSubclass<T> is a
*sibling* class to StaticPlugin/DynamicPlugin, so this cast was
invalid and the results undefined. The methods for retrieving
subclasses of plugins can't be easily changed to just generate an
array of temporary wrapper objects that expose an identical API
which dereferences to the preferred PluginObject subclass because
pointers to these objects are retained by other parts of ScummVM,
so the wrappers would needed to be persisted or they would need to
just re-expose the underlying Plugin object again. This indicated
that a way to solve this problem is to have the callers receive
Plugin objects and get the PluginObject from the Plugin by
explicitly stating their desired type, in a similar manner to
std::get(std::variant), so that the pattern used by this patch to
solve the problem.
Closes gh-1051.
In most cases that's the right one to check. USE_CLOUD is defined when
either USE_LIBCURL or USE_SDL_NET are, which means if there is no curl,
USE_CLOUD still could be defined and linking errors would appear.
