We often need the same native texture objects for new textures. This commit
try to avoid destroying and creation of this textures by pooling them.
This should be a big performance gain for some efb2ram games as they may
overwrites partially a cached texture (which would be deleted) and afterwards
try to read it.
Creating/destroying sounds like an easy task, but it isn't. eg the nvidia ogl
driver synchonize their threads do avoid use-after-free issues.
- Add support for std::set and std:pair.
- Switch from std::is_pod to std::is_trivially_copyable, to allow for
types that have constructors but trivial copy constructors. Easy,
except there are three different nonstandard versions of it required
on different platforms, in addition to the standard one.
D3D doesn't allow bigger viewports than rendertargets. But flipper does, so the viewport will be clipped and the transformation matrix will be changed.
This was done in the D3D backend itself. This is now moved into VideoCommon. This don't reduce code, but in this way, VideoCommon doesn't depend on the backends.
This isn't needed for both OGL+D3D11 as they support sample shading directly. So we
could use the common MSAA util shaders instead of writing custom ones.
* Currently there is no DEBUGFAST configuration. Defining DEBUGFAST as a preprocessor definition in Base.props (or a global header) enables it for now, pending a better method. This was done to make managing the build harder to screw up. However it may not even be an issue anymore with the new .props usage.
* D3DX11SaveTextureToFile usage is dropped and not replaced.
* If you have $(DXSDK_DIR) in your global property sheets (Microsoft.Cpp.$(PlatformName).user), you need to remove it. The build will error out with a message if it's configured incorrectly.
* If you are on Windows 8 or above, you no longer need the June 2010 DirectX SDK installed to build dolphin. If you are in this situation, it is still required if you want your built binaries to be able to use XAudio2 and XInput on previous Windows versions.
* GLew updated to 1.10.0
* compiler switches added: /volatile:iso, /d2Zi+
* LTCG available via msbuild property: DolphinRelease
* SDL updated to 2.0.0
* All Externals (excl. OpenAL and SDL) are built from source.
* Now uses STL version of std::{mutex,condition_variable,thread}
* Now uses Build as root directory for *all* intermediate files
* Binary directory is populated as post-build msbuild action
* .gitignore is simplified
* UnitTests project is no longer compiled
Note that before pushing those changes, they were initially tested in a branch, and passed the compilation testing. Sorry that I didn't catch this before.
