Makes the public interface consistent in terms of how accesses are done
on a process object. It also makes it slightly nicer to reason about the
logic of the process class, as we don't want to expose everything to
external code.
The std::vector instances are already initially allocated with all
entries having these values, there's no need to loop through and fill
them with it again when they aren't modified.
auto x = 0;
auto-deduces x to be an int. This is undesirable when working with
unsigned values. It also causes sign conversion warnings. Instead, we
can make it a proper unsigned value with the correct width that the
following expressions operate on.
Given these are only added to the class to allow those functions to
access the private constructor, it's a better approach to just make them
static functions in the interface, to make the dependency explicit.
This converts it into a regular constructor parameter. There's no need
to make this a template parameter on the class when it functions
perfectly well as a constructor argument.
This also reduces the amount of code bloat produced by the compiler, as
it doesn't need to generate the same code for multiple different
instantiations of the same class type, but with a different fill value.
Rather than hard-code the address range to be 36-bit, we can derive the
parameters from supplied NPDM metadata if the supplied exectuable
supports it. This is the bare minimum necessary for this to be possible.
The following commits will rework the memory code further to adjust to
this.
Several classes have a lot of non-trivial members within them, or don't
but likely should have the destructor defaulted in the cpp file for
future-proofing/being more friendly to forward declarations.
Leaving the destructor unspecified allows the compiler to inline the
destruction code all over the place, which is generally undesirable from
a code bloat perspective.
This was used in two different translation units
(deconstructed_rom_directory and patch_manager). This means we'd be
pointlessly duplicating the whole array twice due to it being defined
within the header.
These variables aren't used, which still has an impact, as std::vector
cannot be optimized away by the compiler (it's constructor and
destructor are both non-trivial), so this was just wasting memory.
std::shared_ptr isn't strictly necessary here and is only ever used in
contexts where the object doesn't depend on being shared. This also
makes the interface more flexible, as it's possible to create a
std::shared_ptr from a std::unique_ptr (std::shared_ptr has a
constructor that accepts a std::unique_ptr), but not the other way
around.
