- Completely move mouse hit testing down into the UI input module. This reduces some dependencies.
- Never return a null pointer from ioport_field::name() to prevent potential crashes. All anonymous inputs are classified as INPUT_CLASS_INTERNAL, so several frontend functions now check type_class instead.
- Correct a couple of typos.
Replace the old device_iterator and its specialized versions with functionally equivalent classes that use standard operators to yield references to devices/interfaces rather than pointers. With range-based for loops, they no longer have to be stored in named variables, though they can also be reused concurrently since the iteration state is now maintained by a subclass.
Add a few more typical getters to device_t::subdevice_list.
C++11 range-based for loops can now iterate over simple_list, tagged_list, core_options, device_t::subdevice_list, device_t::interface_list, render_primitive_list and all subclasses of the above, and much code has been refactored to use them. Most core classes that have these lists as members now have methods that return the lists themselves, replacing most of the methods that returned the object at an owned list's head. (A few have been retained due to their use in drivers or OSD.)
device_t now manages subdevice and interface lists through subclasses, but has given up the work of adding and removing subdevices to machine_config.
memory_manager has its tagged lists exposed, though the old rooted tag lookup methods have been removed (they were privatized already).
Removed unnecessary icons from the toolbar (performed the same actions of entries already in the menu).
Proper handling the export of the list.
Updated the .po files.
Five new specifiers for driver enumeration and all commands depending thereon:
- @source.cpp matches all drivers in source.cpp
- ^driver matches driver and all its clones
- :drivbios matches drivbios and all drivers having it as their BIOS
- ^ matches all drivers excluding clone sets
- : matches all BIOS roots
Note that these new specifiers are not compatible with other wildcards; they only perform normal case-insensitive matches with driver or source file names.
The -listclones command now lists drivers in a completely different, human-readable format. It performs an extra loop to deduce the parent set name if a clone was specified; this causes, for instance, -listclones pacman and -listclones puckman to produce identical output. It includes descriptions with the clone driver names much like -listfull, and uses the parent set's description as a header for its clones. It also recognizes BIOSes and lists unique matching sets with no clones at the end of the output.
The -listsource command outputs not only the source file of each matching driver, but also its parent set and BIOS root (if any). These are output using the new @sourcefile, ^driver and :bios specifiers.
The new -listtree command is a human-readable analogue to -listsource and an alternative to -listclones. It tabulates drivers by source file in tree format, with the names of clones indented under their parents and drivers indented under their respective BIOS roots.
The -listbrothers command remains functionally unchanged, but should be considered somewhat deprecated in favor of the @sourcefile specifier with other listing commands.
Fix include_all counting error causing assert to fail in find_approximate_matches (nw)
Relax dependencies on drivenum.h in UI headers (nw)
- The -validate command now accepts an optional string, validating only matching drivers.
This has proven useful for debugging. The default is to validate all drivers as usual.
- Devices' names are tracked when validating their auto-finders.
- strprintf is unaltered, but strformat now takes one fewer argument
- state_string_export still fills a buffer, but has been made const
- get_default_card_software now takes no arguments but returns a string
