Ideally Common.h wouldn't be a header in the Common library, and instead be renamed to something else, like PlatformCompatibility.h or something, but even then, there's still some things in the header that don't really fall under that label
This moves the version strings out to their own version header that doesn't dump a bunch of other unrelated things into scope, like what Common.h was doing.
This also places them into the Common namespace, as opposed to letting them sit in the global namespace.
Since all queues are FIFO data structures, the name wasn't informative
as to why you'd use it over a normal queue. I originally thought it had
something to do with the hardware graphics FIFO.
This renames it using the common acronym SPSC, which stands for
single-producer single-consumer, and is most commonly used to talk about
lock-free data structures, both of which this is.
I'm not sure why this hasn't popped up as an error on the buildbots,
but the build fails on my new install of VS2017. The error is C2445:
result type of conditional expression is ambiguous: types 'wxString'
and 'const char [1]' can be converted to multiple common types
Settings that come from the SYSCONF are now included in Dolphin's
config system as part of the base layer. They are handled in a
special way compared to other settings to make sure they are only
loaded from and saved to the SYSCONF (to avoid different, possibly
contradicting sources of truth).
When recording during netplay, the stop message was only sent after you
have chosen a filename for the replay, causing the other player(s)
to freeze for a few seconds. This takes care of the annoyance.
For instance, we don't want to show TGC files that might be
inside the /files/ directory of a GameCube DirectoryBlob,
and we don't want to show the /sys/main.dol files for extra
partitions of Wii DirectoryBlobs.
Same as the previous commit, except I'm copying strings
in the other direction because the DolphinWX variants
of these strings could use some improvement.
I don't know who thought it would be a good idea to put the Wiimote
connect code as part of the Host interface, and have that called
from both the UI code and the core. And then hack around it by having
"force connect" events whenever Host_ConnectWiimote is called
from the core...
