In most of these cases, the open file dialog won't even display a file
without the proper extension, so this helps ensure the user doesn't
accidentally misplace their files. The one exception is *.rdc, which
could be found without the extension, but could not be opened.
* There was no good reason to have a flag indicating if the special
format was valid or not. Now it's a single enum, with a value
'Regular' indicating that the compCount/compWidth/compType fully
describe the format itself.
* This makes code patterns easier as you no longer need to check for
special then check for specialFormat, you can just test the type
directly.
* We forward a different range of ports to each device so we can pick
and choose which to communicate with based on its index.
* The index is encoded in the 'hostname' like so: adb:X:deviceidhere
* Whenever we want to interact with an android device we always specify
the device, never leave it to a default.
* QShortcut falls down on duplicates. It can have activatedAmbiguously
events, but these happen in arbitrary order and the shortcuts on
menu items just swallow the ambiguous activate so it's not useful.
* Instead we just let MainWindow pick up ShortcutOverride events and
consult a mapping of which shortcuts to use. We can use a smarter
selection method to choose the more 'local' shortcut if two shortcuts
that conflict exist.
* Added a couple of utility macros to help with the conversion. lit() is
paired with tr() for untranslated text.
* QFormatStr is more explicitly for non-textual formatting strings.
* Both are just #define'd to QStringLiteral()
* Tacking -official onto the git hash was a hack only needed on windows,
and since we want more information it doesn't scale.
* Instead we track anything we need to know about the version in
separate variables, like whether it's a stable build or a nightly/
local build. Or if it's built by a downstream distribution then the
version number for the downstream build.
* We previously were only checking if all lookups had completed before
self-deleting, but we also need to make sure nothing externally is
still holding onto the dialog.
* This allows us to return complex types like byte arrays or pairs of
status & render handle.
* Also in future more introspection of the capture file will be possible
and this provides an easy extension to that without adding new entry
points.
* Generally this means removing ref out parameters and instead returning
values. In a couple of cases we will want to avoid copies in future
either by returning const references (e.g. to the pipeline state which
is immutable).
* At the same time, some pointless bool return values that were always
true and didn't indicate errors have been removed. They can be added
again if an error condition comes back.
* Some free functions still have out parameters as C linkage doesn't
allow returning user types by value.
* The C# UI still invokes into C wrappers for all the C++ classes, which
handle taking the return value and doing a copy into an out parameter
still for compatibility.
* Note, this API is still in-flux and beta, so there may still be some
more changes before it's 'stable', and even then it will still be
subject to some amount of change.
* This API is then exposed to python via SWIG bindings and hides
internals that don't need to be visible, and means the actual API is
easier to work with.
* We also use this API to reduce inter-dependencies between different
windows that need to interact with each other at a high level.
* The naming is python/standard RenderDoc TitleCase method names, not
Qt style camelCase methods.
# Conflicts:
# qrenderdoc/Windows/PipelineState/D3D11PipelineStateViewer.cpp
# qrenderdoc/Windows/TextureViewer.cpp
* This gives a little nicer syntax, a bit better type safety, and also
reflects better for SWIG bindings. Overall it's a minor change but
better.
* We don't update the C# UI at all, since it's soon to be removed and
not worth the effort/code churn.
* For now so we're ABI compatible with C#, all enums are uint32_t, but
that is an obvious optimisation in future to reduce struct packing.
* We avoid 'None' as an enum value, because it's a reserved word in
python so will cause problems generating bindings.
* This most commonly happens launching an Android program that takes a
while to launch, or if you're launching a program with the delay for
debugger option set.
* Instead of the whole UI hanging, you'll get a progress dialog to
appear while it's waiting.
* Apart from making the code cleaner when accessing them, creating these
from strings can be slow if you do it often enough (e.g. once per
resources for action/action_hover in pipeline state view).
