This is the only way to get Wiimotes working under Android now.
This, just like the Wii U Gamecube Controller Adapter, completely goes around Android's limitations and talks with the device directly through USBManager.
Couple notes.
Continuous scanning must be enabled otherwise the Wiimotes won't be seen.
The UI doesn't expose support for this yet. One must change the Wiimote source and continuous scanning settings manually.
Testing up to two wiimotes in Taiko No Tatsujin, no reason to believe all four won't work.
Since all Virtual console releases use the same emulator (though there
are multiple revisions some emulators) and generally need the same
setting, this commit allows the creation of INI files which cover all
Virtual Console games fow each system.
For example, F.ini can provide settings that all NES games have in common
and C.ini will provide settings for all Commadore 64 games.
If needed, a 3 letter ini can override settings for individual games.
This also has the added benefit of not crashing under most circumstances.
Includes a few other changes, including replacing the atomic<bool> with a
Flag, as well as adding a flag for indicating read thread shutdown.
if the configured local pad is none, it will make dolphin behave
incorrectly (due to the game expecting inputs from the device while it
doesn’t exist).
Remote devices would always enter an error path and get disconnected
from the gamecube, breaking netplay in the process.
Culprit is still InGamePadToLocalPad
if it was used in netplay, it would read memory out of bounds
(due to the mapping method returning 4 if the device was remote) which
was 0 more often than not, causing the device in this position to be a konga.
(which may or not be the gcadapter due to the swap between local and
ingame controllers)
This is because Google decided it was in their best interest to update eglext.h for android-21/arch-arm only and completely neglect all the other
architectures.
Sucks to suck.
This is being implemented here first under EGL since the infrastructure is already in place for this due to the Android code requiring some bits.
The rest of the interfaces will come in a little bit.
This will be required for threaded shader compiling in the near future.
Introduced in 6e13496d8, pads would get assigned to their netplay
position, which breaks assumptions. With this behavior, the SI devices
should be mapped properly.
