`std::abs(x - y)` where x and y are unsigned integers fails to compile
with an "call of overloaded 'abs(unsigned int)' is ambiguous" error
on GCC, and even if it did compile, that expression still wouldn't
give the correct result since `x - y` is unsigned.
Also move it to MathUtils where it belongs with the rest of the
power-of-two functions. This gets rid of pollution of the current scope
of any translation unit with b<value> macros that aren't intended to be
used directly.
Keeps all of the floating-point utility functions in their own file to
keep them all together. This also provides a place for other
general-purpose floating-point functions to be added in the future,
which will be necessary when improving the flag-setting within the
interpreter.
We (the Microsoft C++ team) use the dolphin project as part of our "Real world code" tests.
I noticed a few issues in windows specific code when building dolphin with the MSVC compiler
in its conformance mode (/permissive-). For more information on /permissive- see our blog
https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/vcblog/2016/11/16/permissive-switch/.
These changes are to address 3 different types of issues:
1) Use of qualified names in member declarations
struct A {
void A::f() { } // error C4596: illegal qualified name in member declaration
// remove redundant 'A::' to fix
};
2) Binding a non-const reference to a temporary
struct S{};
// If arg is in 'in' parameter, then it should be made const.
void func(S& arg){}
int main() {
//error C2664: 'void func(S &)': cannot convert argument 1 from 'S' to 'S &'
//note: A non-const reference may only be bound to an lvalue
func( S() );
//Work around this by creating a local, and using it to call the function
S s;
func( s );
}
3) Add missing #include <intrin.h>
Because of the workaround you are using in the code you will need to include
this. This is because of changes in the libraries and not /permissive-
MSVC's implementation of numeric_limits currently generates incorrect
signaling NaNs. The resulting values are actually quiet NaNs instead.
This commit is based off of a solution by shuffle2. The only
difference is a template specialization for floats is also added
to cover all bases
Clamping a rectangle correctly requires fully clamping all four
coordinates in the general case.
This should fix issue 6923, sort of; at least, it fixes the part where a
rectangle ends up with a nonsensical height after being clamped.
A previous PR changed a whole lot of min/maxes to std::min/std::max
but made a mistake here and used a templated min which cast it's
arguments to unsigned instead of casting return value.
This resulted in glitchy artifacts in bright areas (See issue 7439)
I rewrote the code to use a proper clamping function so it's cleaner
to read.
Our defines were never clear between what meant 64bit or x86_64
This makes a clear cut between bitness and architecture.
This commit also has the side effect of bringing up aarch64 compiling support.
