ZDoom 2.0.97 Bugfix Release

I don't care if this is only a bugfix release, I'm using GZDoom until 2.1.0 comes out.

Are people really that weirded out by the MS Error Reporting Tool?!?!?

There's not much to do. And for the text-based LANGUAGE lump I won't invest the work in old code so GZDoom will not upgrade to this version. Most of the fixes are in .96x anyway.

Huh? Microsoft paranoia?

The list of changes needed for Linux. Patch attached. Includes cbuild.c and a cbuild script. The script is only setup to work with GCC (in Linux and MinGW), though it can be changed to work with MSVC cli tools.. I just don't know VC's command lines well enough.

People with an sh-compatible shell can run the cbuild.c file directly, otherwise, you'll need to manually compile it into an executable (eg: gcc -O2 -W -Wall -Werror -o cbuild.exe cbuild.c). Setting the environment vars NOASM, OPTLEVEL, ARCH_TYPE, TUNE_TYPE, CONFIG, RELEASETARGET, and DEBUGTARGET before running the script will have the same effect as with the makefile. Run with 'help' to get a list of available options.

As for the changes themselves...

In src/sdl:

I_PrintStr uses the wrong prototype.
GetModeCount is a virtual method in IVideo, but is never defined in SDLVideo. Since it's never used, it can be simply removed.
IVideo and SDLVideo's NextMode function, as well as I_NextMode, are missing the 'bool *letterbox' parameter.
A redundant i_music.h is conflicting with the one in src/sound.
Missing a 'Windowed' variable in one of the SDLVideo functions (and in the same lines, unclean use of the ?: operators)
I_FindFirst returns NULL where (void*)-1 is expected.

And for the main code:

I_RegisterSong tries to use SPC in non-Windows (unfortunately it was way too much of a hassle to maintain this capability in Linux).
i_sound.cpp tries to include the Win32-only header altsound.h in non-Windows.
Also in i_sound.cpp, GSnd is not initialized with an FMODSoundRenderer object in non-Windows. It thusly crashes when attempting to check if(!GSnd->IsValid()).
music_midi_timidity.cpp needs to include unistd.h for open/close/pipe/etc.
v_palette.cpp also needs unistd.h
zstrformat.cpp uses the non-standard __int64 type. For this patch, I changed it to use the C99-standard uint64_t and int64_t types (found in stdint.h, which the latest MinGW supports), and added typedefs for MSVC (why won't Microsoft support C99 ).

Edit - The archive was missing the default.cbd script for cbuild. Whoops.
Edit2 - Fixed a bug in cbuild relating to predefining env. vars. Thanks to Sanders for pointing it out.

/Downloads for archive purposes (not the linux patch, don't need that....... yet)

@martinhowe: I like the new error screen, I don't hate it - Could save the bugs forum from eternal spam

@Graf: are you going to implement the new error screen in GZDoom?

Post by **Graf Zahl** » Fri Sep 30, 2005 5:26 am

That depends. When I finally get a stable 2.1.0 source I have to see how much I can preserve without causing users to dismiss the crash log. I will have to disable the autosend feature because I have no place to send the error information.
