This removes the horrible janky old KeyValues parser and replaces it
with a couple of trivial ad-hoc text parsers. In doing so, make the
format of the actual gamedata files more human-friendly too.
We also gain support for nested SendTables in mkentprops, which are
required to get at various things like player velocity. And, the actual
string matching is made more efficient (or, at least, more scalable) by
way of a cool radix tree thing which generates a bunch of switch cases
on distinct characters.
Revise syntax macros and add a ton of branch hints2024-08-23T19:37:37+00:00Michael Smithmikesmiffy128@gmail.com2024-08-03T22:40:31+00:00urn:sha1:83da606072ce272eb053d4e1497d77e647cfecae
My new programming style is branch hints. All non-confusing branches
must be hinted when I can be bothered. It's faster, sometimes, maybe.
Also, start trying to use more signed sizes in at least some of the
places where it makes sense. Unsigned sizes are surprisingly
error-prone!
Move towards C23, improve events and vcall macros2022-09-13T21:50:30+00:00Michael Smithmikesmiffy128@gmail.com2022-09-13T20:46:21+00:00urn:sha1:792463cb133f65645feb48743bbc03ef8eb96bdd
Another big one. Here's a list of things:
- Since the upcoming C23 standardises typeof(), use it as an extension
for the time being in order to allow passing arbitrary types as
macro/codegen parameters. It wouldn't have been a big leap to do this
even without standardisation since it's apparently an easy extension
to implement - and also, to be honest, this project is essentially glued
to Clang anyway so who cares.
- Likewise, bool, true and false are becoming pre-defined, so
pre-pre-define them now in order to get the benefit of not having to
remember one header everywhere.
- Really ungodly/amazing vcall macro stuff now allows us to call C++
virtual functions like regular C functions. It's pretty cool!
- Events can now take arbitrary parameters and come in two types:
regular events and predicates.
All this makes the base code even uglier but makes the feature
implementation nicer. In other words, it places more of the cognitive
burden on myself and less on other people who might want to contribute.
This is a good tradeoff, because I'm a genius.

Sometimes, you just want to Unicode.
Fix some old KV parser issues2022-03-19T03:51:45+00:00Michael Smithmikesmiffy128@gmail.com2022-02-24T00:47:05+00:00urn:sha1:6818b362a776f0cc5a6068ed119dc2ebcbc5a9cc
- Implement conditionals in the lexer and reject or ignore them in
callbacks. This will allow something to use them later if needed.
- Make error handling less stupid (return a bool instead of using the
state struct).
