The controller can use either hat or buttons for the D-Pad, depending on what Linux driver is in use. The automatic mapping in LINUX_JoystickGetGamepadMapping() will do the right thing based on the exposed capability bits.
I'm sure this is the case for other controllers as well, so we might be removing more mappings over time.
Clear the window to black on the initial window draw, to avoid a really
obnoxious white flash. This doesn't always eliminate it, but it
definitely minimizes it.
This makes the colorspace match across different graphics APIs. By
default, OpenGL was getting a much more saturated colorspace (maybe
Display P3?) and it was looking very different from the rendering done
by Metal or MoltenVK.
- SDL_LoadObject: upon failure, strip the .dll extension and retry,
but only if module name has no path.
- SDL_LoadFunction: upon failure, retry with an underscore prepended,
e.g. for gcc-built dlls.
- strlcpy was passed a wrong buffer length parameter. has worked so
far by luck.
- use memcpy instead of strlcpy for simplicity.
- 'append' has been a typo: should be 'prepend'.
Otherwise the thread might block for a long time (more than 10 seconds!).
It's not clear to me why this happens, or why its safe to do this with a
resource that's still in use, but we have, until recently, always
disposed of the AudioQueue first, so changing back is probably okay.
Also changed the disposal to allow in-flight buffers to reach hardware;
otherwise you lose the last little bit of audio that's already been queued
but not played, which you can hear clearly in the loopwave test program.
Fixes#6377.
Disabling RAWINPUT on Windows 10 causes these issues:
* All Xbox controllers are named "XInput Controller".
* Trigger rumble no longer works.
* "XInput Controllers" are now also listed as separate haptic devices
It's only needed to support more than 4 Xbox controllers, and adds significant complexity to the joystick processing, and we regularly get bugs from people who aren't using an SDL window who need to turn on SDL_HINT_JOYSTICK_THREAD.
Replace instances of fprintf(stderr, ...) with SDL_SetError(), replace C++ comments with C style, use a uniform format for multi-line comments, and remove unused headers as poll and select aren't used in this file (the SDL function which calls them is used instead).
