It's a deprecated platform that has weird OpenGL-related bugs and
is incompatible with using EGL anyway. It was clear we're going
to drop it, the only question was when. Answer: now.
This commit fixes four issues:
* Instead of WRITE,APPEND, resource.rc was generated using
WRITE,WRITE, which erased #include <windows.h> and prevented
any symbolic definitions (like RT_MANIFEST) from working.
This silently included them using a string type instead,
which did nothing.
* WINVER is bumped to Win7, since that's what we target now.
* Index of RT_MANIFEST is changed to 2, since that's what
it has to be when ISOLATION_AWARE_ENABLED is defined.
* Platform is not restricted to X86 in manifest, since there
is no point in doing so.
All of our executables need resources; e.g. the vector font is
a resource and it is necessary for generation. Before this commit,
the GUI executable loaded the resources in a nice way, and everything
else did it in a very ad-hoc, fragile way.
After this commit, all executables are placed in <build>/bin and
follow the same algorithm:
* On Windows, resources are compiled and linked into every
executable.
* On Linux, resources are copied into <build>/res (which is
tried first) and <prefix>/share/solvespace (which is tried
second).
* On macOS, resources are copied into <build>/res (which is
tried first) and <build>/bin/solvespace.app/Contents/Resources
(which is tried second).
In practice this means that we can add as many executables as we want
without duplicating lots of code. In addition, on macOS, we can
place supplementary executables into the bundle, and they can use
resources from the bundle transparently.
The only thing we need it anymore is the package version and platform
configuration, so only include it for that. As a result, less files
are rebuilt when the git commit changes and config.h is regenerated.
This commit performs two main changes:
* Alters the shaders to use only strictly conformant GLSL 2.0.
* Alters the Windows UI to use ANGLE via GL ES 2.0 and EGL 1.4.
This commit also drops official support for Windows XP, since ANGLE
requires a non-XP toolset to build. It is still possible to build
SolveSpace for Windows XP using:
cmake -T v120_xp -DOPENGL=1
We do not support clobbering the source tree with build products,
nor recommend this in any documentation, and this already leads to
weird bugs with the resource system. Show an explicit error in this
case to avoid confusion.
We're using gcov+lcov, since these tools appear to be the only
usable ones that use the SC/CC metric; and measuring just the line
coverage would be practically criminal negligence.
gcov only works with GCC and Clang, and MSVC's own coverage
measurement tools are not up to the task; so MSVC is out of luck.
This commit alters the build system substantially; it adds another
platform, `headless`, that provides stubs in place of all GUI
functions, and provides a library `solvespace_headless` alongside
the main executable. To cut down build times, only the few files
that have #if defined(HEADLESS) are built twice for the executable
and the library; the rest is grouped into a new `solvespace_cad`
library. It is not usable on its own and just serves for grouping.
This commit also gates the tests behind a -DENABLE_TESTS=ON CMake
option, ON by default (but suggested as OFF in the README so that
people don't ever have to install cairo to build the executable.)
The tests introduced in this commit are (so far) rudimentary,
although functional, and they serve as a stepping point towards
introducing coverage analysis.
This commit makes common external packages always be included through
find_package to eliminate differences in variables set, wraps
find_package for vendored libraries on Windows to factor out common
code, and removes miscellaneous useless code elsewhere in dependency
handling.
This also fixes a problem where pkg-config would pick up `build`
libraries instead of `host` when cross-compiling.
It was never really needed, since both Linux and OS X, where
GlOffscreen is used, guarantee that the API we need is present,
on all OS versions we're interested in.
Also, reorganize GlOffscreen consistently with the rest of our
codebase, and don't use RAII for OpenGL resource management because
of its requirement for an active context.
Specifically, this enables -Wswitch=error on GCC/Clang and its MSVC
equivalent; the exact way it is handled varies slightly, but what
they all have in common is that in a switch statement over an
enumeration, any enumerand that is not explicitly (via case:) or
implicitly (via default:) handled in the switch triggers an error.
Moreover, we also change the switch statements in three ways:
* Switch statements that ought to be extended every time a new
enumerand is added (e.g. Entity::DrawOrGetDistance(), are changed
to explicitly list every single enumerand, and not have a
default: branch.
Note that the assertions are kept because it is legal for
a enumeration to have a value unlike any of its defined
enumerands, and we can e.g. read garbage from a file, or
an uninitialized variable. This requires some rearranging if
a default: branch is undesired.
* Switch statements that ought to only ever see a few select
enumerands, are changed to always assert in the default: branch.
* Switch statements that do something meaningful for a few
enumerands, and ignore everything else, are changed to do nothing
in a default: branch, under the assumption that changing them
every time an enumerand is added or removed would just result
in noise and catch no bugs.
This commit also removes the {Request,Entity,Constraint}::UNKNOWN and
Entity::DATUM_POINT enumerands, as those were just fancy names for
zeroes. They mess up switch exhaustiveness checks and most of the time
were not the best way to implement what they did anyway.
This is a high-SNR warning that's enabled by default on MSVC and
it has highlighted some bugs in glhelper.cpp (that are also fixed
in this commit).
Unfortunately GCC does not have an equivalent for that warning,
and -Wconversion is very noisy.
This commit integrates the vector font in the resource system, so
that cross-compilation would be easier and a custom font could be
used without recompilation.
The font handling code was carefully written to lazily load glyphs;
as possible; in practice this means that startup is less than 15ms
slower after this commit, most of it spent in inflate().
This also reduces executable size and makes compilation of
glhelper.cpp much faster.
Currently, icons, fonts, etc are converted to C structures at compile
time and are hardcoded to the binary. This presents several problems:
* Cross-compilation is complicated. Right now, it is necessary
to be able to run executables for the target platform; this
happens to work with wine-binfmt installed, but is rather ugly.
* Icons can only have one resolution. On OS X, modern software is
expected to take advantage of high-DPI ("Retina") screens and
use so-called @2x assets when ran in high-DPI mode.
* Localization is complicated. Win32 and OS X provide built-in
support for loading the resource appropriate for the user's
locale.
* Embedding strings can only be done as raw strings, using C++'s
R"(...)" literals. This precludes embedding sizable strings,
e.g. JavaScript libraries as used in Three.js export, and makes
git history less useful. Not embedding the libraries means we
have to rely on external CDNs, which requires an Internet
connection and adds a glaring point of failure.
* Linux distribution guidelines are violated. All architecture-
independent data, especially large data such as fonts, is
expected to be in /usr/share, not in the binary.
* Customization is impossible without recompilation. Minor
modifications like adding a few missing vector font characters
or adjusting localization require a complete development
environment, which is unreasonable to expect from users of
a mechanical CAD.
As such, this commit adds a resource system that bundles (and
sometimes builds) resources with the executable. Where they go is
platform-dependent:
* on Win32: into resources of the executable, which allows us to
keep distributing one file;
* on OS X: into the app bundle;
* on other *nix: into /usr/share/solvespace/ or ../res/ (relative
to the executable path), the latter allowing us to run freshly
built executables without installation.
It also subsides the platform-specific resources that are in src/.
The resource system is not yet used for anything; this will be added
in later commits.
This is good practice and helps to catch bugs. Several changes
were made to accomodate the newly enabled warnings:
* -Wunused-function:
* in exposed/, static functions that were supposed to be inlined
were explicitly marked as inline;
* some actually unused functions were removed;
* -Wsign-compare: explicit conversions were added, and in
the future we should find a nicer way than aux* fields;
* -Wmissing-field-initializers: added initializers;
* -Wreorder: reordered properly;
* -Wunused-but-set-variable: remove variable.
-Wunused-parameter was turned off as enabling it would result in
massive amount of churn in UI code. Despite that, we should enable
it at some point as it has a fairly high SNR otherwise.
config.h now includes the git hash and so, as long as it's included
in solvespace.h, any change of git HEAD will trigger a complete
recompilation, which makes bisecting especially annoying.
While we're at it, remove HAVE_STDINT_H from it, since we require
C++11 and all MSVC versions that include C++11 also include stdint.h.
Before this commit, running "make" would build e.g. zlib's tests
and fail because they are not designed to work when zlib is included
as a subproject.
After this commit, EXCLUDE_FROM_ALL, which I did not know about,
prevents any actions from being done by default in these subprojects.
We had to fork libdxfrw since the upstream doesn't have a git
repository, a CMake buildsystem, and is quite buggy.
libdxfrw is also used in LibreCAD, but they just vendored
their version.
This will weed out compilers that are too old to build our code
(among others, recent gtkmm and glibmm have a hard dependency on
C++11, not even C++0x) and also properly communicate our wish to GCC
(Clang defaults to C++11 these days).
In my (whitequark's) experience this warning tends to expose
copy-paste errors with a high SNR, so making a few fragments
slightly less symmetric is worth it.
Also mollify -Wlogical-op-parentheses while we're at it.
We are going to use freetype instead of the old custom TTF parser,
since the old parser has many annoying bugs when handling non-Latin
fonts and fixing it is not really worth the time.
On Windows, Freetype is built from a submodule.
On Linux and OS X, Freetype is provided together with the desktop,
though development files have to be installed separately.
