joyGetDevCaps() is an extremely slow call that allocates memory.
WinMMJoystick is now caching its results for a significant speedup in
Joystick.GetCapabilities() and GetState().
The cache is updated whenever a joystick device is removed. WIP to
handle device added notifications.
When refreshing the AvailableDevices list, it is important to set the
original resolution on any DisplayDevices that were previously available
to allow the RestoreResolution() method to work correctly.
This patch adds more robust checks for WGL_ARB_pixel_format and
WGL_ARB_multisample before using the relevant extensions, and adds
checks whether Wgl.Arb.ChoosePixelFormat() returns a valid pixel format
before trying to use it (thanks to Repetier for catching this edge
case.)
Additionally, the ChoosePixelFormatPFD code-path now heavily penalizes
single-buffered modes when the user requests a double-buffered mode.
Affects issues #42 and #45
When running over remote desktop without hardware acceleration, there
are no GraphicsModes that support desktop composition. This patch adds
logic to avoid requesting composition-capable modes when running over
RDP.
Additionally, it changes the mode selection logic to consider modes that
support features partially (e.g. 16bpp color instead of 32bpp), albeit
with a heavy penalty over fully supported modes.
This patch adds a workaround for WM_STYLECHANGED messages that are not
delivered when running on Mono/Windows. If we detect Mono, then we call
HandleStyleChanged() directly in order to update the internal state of
our WinGLNative instance.
WinMM is optimized for general joystick use, not for the canonical
GamePad layout. Instead of exposing IGamePadDriver directly, it should
expose IJoystickDriver2 and use a mapping driver to get GamePad support.
Without this flag, OpenGL rendering does not work as expected.
Additionally, all WGL_ARB_pixel_format attributes are expected to be
specified in key-value pairs. Fixed double-buffering and stereoscoping
rendering attributes.
Fixed WGL_ARB_pixel_format attribute selection for doublebuffering,
stereoscopic rendering and hardware acceleration. Implemented
minimization strategy to select the optimal PixelFormatDescriptor in the
fallback path.
Instead of creating a list of all available formats and iterating
through that, we let the driver decide which is the best accelerated
format to use for the user parameters. If no such format exists, we fall
back to generic acceleration or software acceleration, in turn.
This affects issue #21
Don't filter window messages passed to our window (see
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/oldnewthing/archive/2005/02/09/369804.aspx).
Additionally, return the correct values for all messages we are actually
handling and clean up unmanaged memory after we are done with the
window.
Instead of combining PeekMessage+GetMessage, we can simply call
PeekMessage(Remove) to achieve the same effect. This also allows us to
remove the IsIdle property, which is no longer used anywhere.
The temporary context is now retained until the actual context has been
constructed. If we don't do this, then WGL_ARB_create_context may fail
to work correctly on specific GPUs (e.g. Intel). This may affect issue
#19.
The correct way to query number of available pixel formats is to use
Wgl.Arb.GetPixelFormatAttrib(NumberPixelFormatsArb), not
Wgl.Arb.ChoosePixelFormats. This fixes an issue where Intel drivers
would fail to report any pixel formats in GetModesARB, even when
WGL_ARB_pixel_format is supported.
