pthreads should be available anywhere. Even if not, for environment
without threads a pthread wrapper could be provided that can't actually
start threads, thus disabling features that require threads.
Make pthreads mandatory in order to simplify build dependencies and to
reduce ifdeffery. (Admittedly, there wasn't much complexity, but maybe
we will use pthreads more in the future, and then it'd become a real
bother.)
Incidentally this seems wrong in the configure as well because only gl-win32
depends on it instead of also making direct3d depend on this (as I did here).
waf wrongly installs resources to BundleRoot/Resources instead of
BundleRoot/Contents/Resources. Will post a patch to them later. Either way,
this must worked around until the next waf patch release.
This commit adds a new build system based on waf. configure and Makefile
are deprecated effective immediately and someday in the future they will be
removed (they are still available by running ./old-configure).
You can find how the choice for waf came to be in `DOCS/waf-buildsystem.rst`.
TL;DR: we couldn't get the same level of abstraction and customization with
other build systems we tried (CMake and autotools).
For guidance on how to build the software now, take a look at README.md
and the cross compilation guide.
CREDITS:
This is a squash of ~250 commits. Some of them are not by me, so here is the
deserved attribution:
- @wm4 contributed some Windows fixes, renamed configure to old-configure
and contributed to the bootstrap script. Also, GNU/Linux testing.
- @lachs0r contributed some Windows fixes and the bootstrap script.
- @Nikoli contributed a lot of testing and discovered many bugs.
- @CrimsonVoid contributed changes to the bootstrap script.
