Whilst working on a new video device I ran into a few problems with the
LKxxx keyboard and I noticed there are already some open issues against
the keyboard and mouse devices. These changes should resolve#320 and
may help with #272 (although I think that is an SDL issue). I've tested these
changes with VWS, UWS and DECwindows with both captured and
uncaptured input modes.
These changes facilitate more robust parameter type checking and helps
to identify unexpected coding errors.
Most simulators can now also be compiled with a C++ compiler without
warnings.
Additionally, these changes have also been configured to facilitate easier
backporting of simulator and device simulation modules to run under the
simh v3.9+ SCP framework.
VIDEO:
- Make mouse motion activity consistent with SDL relative direction. Add error output when mouse events are discarded due to queue full.
If a client application delivers motion information in a different relative sense, then that application needs to make the adjustments from the SDL standard direction.
- Added SHOW dev VIDEO capability to describe the underlying SDL video capabilities of the current SDL library and host execution environment.
- Force software based rendering under SDL2. Enhanced debug info.
- Added host OS cursor integration support.
- Reorganize libSDL vs libSDL2 version implementation to leverage common logic without replication.
QVSS:
- Coalesced adjacent screen row updates to minimize vid_draw operations
- Report all relative mouse motion in the mouse position register AND mouse motion data.
- Added debugging information for cursor and scan line map updates
- Add option "SET QVSS CAPTURED" to force capture input mode.
