Over time our config values have grown quite numerous in size.
Unfortunately it also makes the single functions we have for loading and
saving values more error prone.
For example, we were loading the core settings twice when they only
should have been loaded once. In another section, a variable was
shadowing another variable used to load settings from a completely
different section.
Finally, in one other case, there was an extraneous endGroup() call used
that didn't need to be done. This was essentially dead code and also a
bug waiting to happen.
This separates the section loading code into its own separate functions.
This keeps variables only visible to the code that actually needs it,
and makes it much easier to visually see the end of each individual
configuration group. It also makes it much easier to visually catch bugs
during code review.
While we're at it, this also uses QStringLiteral instead of raw string
literals, which both avoids constructing a lot of QString instances, but
also makes it much easier to disable implicit ASCII to QString and
vice-versa in the future via setting QT_NO_CAST_FROM_ASCII and
QT_NO_CAST_TO_ASCII as compilation flags.
This option allows picking the compatibility profile since a lot of bugs
are fixed in it. We devs will use this option to easierly debug current
problems in our Core implementation.:wq
Without passing in a parent, this can result in focus being stolen from
the dialog in certain cases.
Example:
On Windows, if the logging window is left open, the logging Window will
potentially get focus over the hotkey dialog itself, since it brings all
open windows for the application into view. By specifying a parent, we
only bring windows for the parent into view (of which there are none,
aside from the hotkey dialog).
Avoids dumping all of the core settings machinery into whatever files
include this header. Nothing inside the header itself actually made use
of anything in settings.h anyways.
This was initially added to prevent problems from stubbed/not implemented NFC services, but as we never encountered such and as it's only used in a deprecated function anyway, I guess we can just remove it to prevent more clutter of the settings.
Calling tr() from a file-scope array isn't advisable, since it can be
executed before the Qt libraries are even fully initialized, which can
lead to crashes.
Instead, the translatable strings should be annotated, and the tr()
function should be called at the string's usage site.
Using the QtProfileSelectorDialog, this implementation is trivial. This mimics the real switch behavior of asking which user on every game boot, but it is default disabled as that might get inconvenient.
Allows capturing screenshot at the current internal resolution (native for software renderer), but a setting is available to capture it in other resolutions. The screenshot is saved to a single PNG in the current layout.
We can hide the direct array from external view and instead provide
functions to retrieve the necessary info. This has the benefit of
completely hiding the makeup of the SinkDetails structure from the rest
of the code.
Given that this makes the array hidden, we can also make the array
constexpr by altering the members slightly. This gets rid of several
static constructor calls related to std::vector and std::function.
Now we don't have heap allocations here that need to occur before the
program can even enter main(). It also has the benefit of saving a
little bit of heap space, but this doesn't matter too much, since the
savings in that regard are pretty tiny.
Greatly simplifies the current input UI, while still allowing power users to tweak advanced settings. Adds 'input profiles', which are easy autoconfigurations to make getting started easy and fast. Also has a custom option which brings up the current, full UI.
