- Replaced CModInfo class with constant ModDescription class
- Simplified mod loading logic
- Extracted some functionality from ModHandler into separate classes for
future reuse by Launcher
This should fix rather common problem with mods, where two unrelated mods
accidentally use same file name for a config file, leading to very unclear
conflict since this result in a file override.
Now all config files referenced in mod.json are loaded specifically from
filesystem of mod that referenced it. In other words, it is no longer
possible for one mod to override config from another mod.
As a side effect, this allows mods to use shorter directory layout, e.g.
`config/modName/xxx.json` can now be safely replaced with `config/
xxx.json` without fear of broken mod if there is another mod with same
path to config. Similarly, now all mods can use `config/translation/
language.json` scheme for translation files
Since this is no longer a problem, I've also simplified directory layout
of our built-in 'vcmi' mod, by moving all files from `config/vcmi`
directory directly to `config` directory.
- Overrides for miscellaneous configs like mainmenu.json should works as
before
- Images / animations (png's or def's) work as before (and may still
result in confict)
- Rebalance mods work as before and can modify another mod via standard
`modName:objectName` syntax
Now VCMI will use either preferred language or install language to load
maps and campaigns that are part of "core" mod, or, in other words -
placed in Maps directory of H3 data (like most of manually downloaded
maps and campaigns are)
If game data is in English, then game can safely use encoding of player-
selected language (such as Chinese) to load maps. After all, both GBK
and all Win-125X encoding are superset of ASCII, so English map will
always load up correctly.
Maps that are part of a mod still use mod language as before - it is up
to mod maker to correctly set up mod language.
All text processing code is now located in lib/texts.
No changes other than code being moved around and adjustment of includes
Moved without changes:
Languages.h -> texts/Languages.h
MetaString.* -> texts/MetaString.*
TextOperations.* -> texts/TextOperations.*
Split into parts:
CGeneralTextHandler.* -> texts/CGeneralTextHandler.*
-> texts/CLegacyConfigParser.*
-> texts/TextLocalizationContainer.*
-> texts/TextIdentifier.h
Mixed line endings cause problems when exporting patches with
git-format-patch and then trying to "git am" a patch with mixed and
non-matching line endings. In such a situation git will fail to apply
the patch.
This commit runs the dos2unix tools on the remaining files with CRLF
(\r\n) line endings to convert them to line-feeds (\n) only.
Files that are Windows specific like *.vcxproj and *.props files were
not converted.
Closes: #3073
