Implemented using these sed commands on the headers:
sed -E -i'' '/SDLCALL|;/ s,([a-z])\* ,\1 *,g' *
sed -E -i'' 's,(\(.*[^\*])\* ([a-z])(.*\)),\1*\2\3,g' *
sed -E -i'' 's,\*const,* const,g' *
sed -E -i'' 's,\*SDLCALL,* SDLCALL,g' *
sed -E -i'' 's,void\(,void (,g' *
git checkout *gl*
While it makes sense to get an object pointer from an object ID, you want to get object attributes for an ID, otherwise e.g. GetNameFromID() sounds like it's a name ID, not an object ID. This is also consistent with the function naming convention in SDL2.
This declares that any `const char *` returned from SDL is owned by SDL, and
promises to be valid _at least_ until the next time the event queue runs, or
SDL_Quit() is called, even if the thing that owns the string gets destroyed
or changed before then.
This is noted in the headers as "the SDL_GetStringRule", so this will both be
greppable to find a detailed explaination in docs/README-strings.md and
wikiheaders will automatically turn it into a link we can point at the
appropriate documentation.
Fixes#9902.
(and several FIXMEs, both known and yet-undocumented.)
This isn't C++ code, so there's no need to append global symbols with two
colons. It looks ugly.
I _did_ leave them for actual C++ things in WinRT-specific comments and other
places, like a reference to a Perl class thing.
Also, even though it's not valid C, it's a useful expression to say
`StructType::SpecificField`, so I left those alone, too.
The shorthand version of this function didn't allow specifying a controller name, which seems pretty important. It seems like anyone actually implementing a virtual joystick is going to want to use some of the extended functionality.
If we need to extend this in the future, we'll make a second struct and
a second SDL_AttachVirtualJoystickEx-style function that uses it.
Just zero the struct and don't set a version.
Fixes#9489.
This is just stuff I noticed while working on the wikiheaders updates. A
thorough pass over all the docs would not be terrible, and maybe a simple
script to check for consistency (does everything have a `\since` on it? etc)
might be nice, too.
