Apparently X11 connections are a scarce resource, so it seems like a
good idea to not hang on to them for too long. Now this is sort of a
hybrid between COM-style memory management and a singleton.
This doesn't do anything useful yet, but it will print the names of
files that are being dragged and dropped on the Wine server (using the
OLE API) while the plugin is open.
This is needed as a workaround to support Waves VST3 plugins.
Right now does does not actually fix the issue because the arguments are
not updated in the subclasses. The next commit will fix this.
Seems weird to need this specifically so we can use the map overload
that creates a new instance when the key doesn't exist in the map. This
seems safer.
Letting `std::unique_ptr<T>` do the thinking for us makes a lot more
sense. We only need manual memory management for the error because we
need to pass a pointer to that pointer to xcb, but at least we have the
macro there so it still stays nice and readable.
We sadly cannot call `shared_library()` and `executable()` in these
subdirectories while still maintaining the same `build/` directory
structure, but this is still much cleaner. All of the other build
artifacts are now also gone from the root of `build/` so it's cleaner
overall.
Since there isn't any public documentation on VST2, I saw JUCE and a
couple of other plugins and bridges use this, but they all redefined the
symbol to`main`.
Some interaction between JUCE and Wine would cause these cursors to be
hidden and then never shown again. This is of course more of a temporary
workaround until the issue gets solved within Wine.
At some point Doom Emacs broke on-save formatting with lsp-mode in
certain circumstances, and I made these changes with wgrep so apparently
they were never formatted.
Ardour apparently always calls `effMainsChanged()` with a value argument
of 0 when unloading the plugin, regardless of whether it has actually
initialized audio processing before that point.
The sizes were wrong, and Blue Cat Audio's VST3 plugins seem to use the
upper bits to store the channel configuration, which thus got read out
incorrectly.
In the same way as 50c25c1cf0 did it for
VST2 plugins. Input and output audio data is now stored in a shared
memory buffer instead of being sent over the sockets. This reduces the
bridging overhead to a minimum since copying data was the most expensive
operation we were doing and we now only need to copy the entire buffer
once per processing cycle.
We now use shared memory to store the input and output audio buffers.
This means that we have to copy less data every processing cycle, since
a single copy to and a single copy from the shared memory object
suffices now. This should reduce the DSP load for VST2
plugins (especially when used in a plugin group) marginally to
significantly depending on the plugins used and the system
configuration.
Every DAW will just send all events in one go (and I think that's the
only way you should do it, but the VST2 spec is a bit leaky so who
knows). It wouldn't make much sense to preallocate more capacity,
because when DAWs do send all of those events individually they might
end up sending more than four of these anyways.
Instead of the parent Window. Tracktion Waveform does some weird things
with its VST2 editor embedding, so with the old approach this would
cause mouse clicks to be offset 27 pixels vertically and one pixel
horizontally.
On the Wine side. Instead of always having it enabled and disabling it
when it could potentially hurt (i.e. when handling GUI related things),
we'll now only enable it when it's potentially beneficial. This way we
don't have to constantly switch scheduling policies on the GUI thread.
