Now that #12009 is merged, we should let the system find the binary on
the users $PATH and don't assume we know where to look for them in
different distributions.
Previously logging logic was scattered over OS class implementations
with plenty of duplication. Major changes in this commit:
- Extracted logging logic into a separate Logger hierarchy. It allows
easy configuration of logging mechanism depending on compile-time or
run-time configuration.
- Implemented RotatedFileLogger which is usually used with StdLogger,
providing persistency of logs. It is often important to be able to
obtain logs of the game even in production to be able to understand
what happened prior to some problem. On mobile there previously was
no way to obtain the logs aside from having the device connected to
your machine.
- flush() is not performed in release mode for every logged line. It
is only performed for errors.
Rename user facing methods and variables as well as the corresponding
C++ methods according to the folloming changes:
* pos -> position
* rot -> rotation
* loc -> location
C++ variables are left as is.
Now that we have a built-in stacktrace on a segfault it would be useful
to have debug information on debug_release builds so that bugreports can
include this information. Without this debug info we will still get
function names in the backtrace but not file location.
This commit will by default build all targets with minimal debug info
and then strip the information into separate files. On MacOS this is a
.dSYM file, on Linux/MingW this is a .debug file. MacOSX will
automatically load a dSYM file if it exists in its debugger. On
Linux/MingW we create a 'gnu debuglink' meaning that gdb and friends
will automatically find the debug symbols if they exist.
Existing workflow for developers does not change at all, except that we
now create two instead of one build artifact by default.
This commit also adds a 'debug_symbols' option to X11, MacOS, and MingW
targets. The default is 'yes' which corresponds to -g1. The alternatives
are 'no' (don't generate debug infos at all) or 'full' which runs with
-g2. A target=debug build will now build with -g3.
- The Windows, UWP, Android (on Windows) and Linux builds are
tested with Scons 3.0 alpha using Python 3.
- OSX and iOS should hopefully work but are not tested since
I don't have a Mac.
- Builds using SCons 2.5 and Python 2 should not be impacted.
