Add a helper function to get the keycode for a scancode from the default lookup table. Unlike SDL_GetKeyFromScancode(), this is not affected by the set keymap.
- SDL_EventQ.active is a bool variable -> do not use SDL_AtomicGet/Set, it does not help in any way
- protect SDL_EventQ.active with SDL_EventQ.lock
- set SDL_EventQ.active to FALSE by default
This uses a newer browser API to get physical scancodes, but still
uses the (deprecated) event field that we were already using for
scancodes, but for keycodes instead now, which appears to be more
accurate.
Since keyboard layout isn't (generally) available to web apps, this
adds an internal interface to send key events with both scancode
and keycode to SDL's internals, instead of sending just scancodes and
expecting SDL to use its own keymap to generate keycodes.
Future work in this area would be to use the keyboard layout APIs
on browsers that support them, which would allow us to use SDL's
usual keymap code and not rely on a deprecated browser API, but
until we get there, this patch gives significantly more correct
results than we would have before.
Fixes#2098.
* Consolidated scancode mapping tables into a single location for all backends
* Verified that the xfree86_scancode_table2 is largely identical to the Linux scancode table
* Updated the Linux scancode table with the latest kernel keycodes (still unmapped)
* Route X11 keysym -> scancode mapping through the linux scancode table (which a few hand-written exceptions), which will allow mappings to automatically get picked up as they are added in the Linux scancode table
* Disabled verbose reporting of missing keysym mappings, we have enough data for now
Previously, calling SDL_SendWindowEvent for a SIZED_CHANGED event would
filter the queue to remove RESIZED and SIZED_CHANGED events, so you don't
overflow the queue with obsolete data, but any RESIZED events would be
lost in this process.
Now we note if there was a RESIZED pending and replace it with a new
event using the same dimensions as the new SIZED_CHANGED event. This fixes
cases where an app is only listening for RESIZED events and thus might
lose important information in some cases.
Fixes#5925.
SDL_events_need_periodic_poll() and SDL_events_need_polling() are intended to allow the event loop to update joysticks and/or sensors if needed, however those systems only update when the SDL_update_joysticks and/or SDL_update_sensors variables are true. This change brings the behavior of these functions in line with if work will actually need to be performed.
This change allows the hints for AUTO_UPDATE to influence the polling behavior of the event loop such that an app can choose to update joysticks/sensors itself and avoid the expense of constantly sleeping and waking the event loop. Additionally in makes these functions marginally faster in some situations by not searching the active events.
Hint callbacks are called before the actual value in the hint is changed, so the functions SDL_AutoUpdateJoysticksChanged and SDL_AutoUpdateSensorsChanged were not actually properly updating their respective variables in repsonse to their auto update hint changing.
Instead, we pull the new hint value out of the value passed into the callback and use that to update the variables. Assume true on a null value as that was the previous behavior and it matches with the default values of SDL_update_joysticks/SDL_update_sensors.
* Xbox GDK support (14 squashed commits)
* Added basic keyboard testing
* Update readme
* Code review fixes
* Fixed issue where controller add/removal wasn't working (since the device notification events don't work on Xbox, have to use the joystick thread to poll XInput)
