"Removed the SupportedPlatformsImpl classes and replaced them with a new SupportedPlatforms attribute on the assembly level.
Removed a few class constructors which could cause problems when loading a game.
Made ResetElapsedTime in the game class reset to 0 instead of TimeSpan.MinValue.
Removed the restriction in the InputDeviceFactory for which InputDevices are supported.
Added a Logger for Metro which works with the current Logger implementation.
Changed that when a platform is recognized that is higher than Windows 8, it gets treated like Windows 8, not like Windows 7.
Due to the SupportedPlatforms change, the assembly loader is now faster in finding out which assemblies contains addIns. For not Metro system, it's also added that a warning gets written if an AddIn references a different ANX version than that of the running assembly.
OpenGL and DirectX have been updated to the newest versions.
XAudio system uses now the same SharpDX version as all the other systems.
ParameterBuffer for WindowsMetro gets now correctly created by considering the size constraints for constant buffers.
Fixed an erroneous finalizer in the xaudio system.
Made the metro projects convert to Windows 8.1, as Windows 8.0 is not supported by the newer SharpDX versions. It's now also necessary to use at least Visual Studio 2013 to build the Metro versions.
Made the samples work again on Windows."
"Fixed the creation of the swap chain for windows metro and removed the dependency of the Metro Rendersystem onto the Metro Platformsytem.
All occurrences of WindowHandles have been replaced with a custom WindowHandle type which should work out of the box in most cases, but does still represent a breaking change to XNA.
The ProjectConverter for Metro was adjusted so that with just changing the way the application is initialized, most projects that worked with ANX before should now work under win rt. The sample SimpleNoContent does now work out of the box for win rt, after a project conversion.
The application name for win rt apps is now a guid, the display name stayed the same though. That's to be more compliant with the way win rt apps are normally created.
The default namespace and namespace of the classes for the Sample "SimpleNoContent" is renamed from "SimpleModernUI" to "SimpleNoContent".
With the new way win rt apps are initialized for ANX, it's necessary to first create the WindowsGameHost for WinRT with a handler how to create the game instance and give that to the CoreApplication object to run it.
Also took care of a few annoying bugs when working with win rt and ANX where no InputDevices could be created on the first frame (Issue #1164 ) and that it wasn't possible to use the localfolder of the application on the first update and all the other stuff for which an instance of the Application class was necessary."
- Build system optimizations
- Extended ProjectConverter: DX and SharpDX assemblies are now removed from linux projects to prevent errors
- Fixed a bunch of compiler warnings
- Removed DX11MetroShaderGenerator assembly. It is now included in ANX.Framework.Content.Pipeline
- Removed HLSLParser assembly. It is now included in ANX.Framework.Content.Pipeline.
- Removed shader parser from GL3-RenderSystem. It is now included in ANX.Framework.Content.Pipeline.
- Removed RenderSystem dependencies from StockShaderCodeGenerator (sscg) tool
Also added the FrameworkDispatcher calls in the Game class.
Checking for possible fire and forget sound instances to be disposed in the FrameworkDispatcher update chain.
- extended ContentImporter to provide OutputType of imported content
- provided a list of available ContentProcessors in current context
PlatformSystems are no longer AddIns. This doesn't mean, that you can't load them dynamically. The handling is just different. There's only a single PlatformSystem available for each platform ANX runs on. This one is auto loaded. If it doesn't exist the game doesn't run. The reason for this is, that we will move the AddIn system from ANX.Framework to the specialized PlatformSystem. This is necessary because we want ANX.Framework to become platform independent. The AddIn system is different for some platforms (Android, iOS, Windows 8 Metro) and needs to be specialized. On the other hand we are able to simplify the AddIn system when moving it to the PlatformSystem because we don't need a big AddIn system supporting all platforms with much conditional compiling.
THIS COMMIT DOES BREAK SOME FUNCTIONALITY. METRO DOESN'T WORK ANYMORE, AS IT IS NOT TESTED. DON'T USE THIS COMMIT IF YOU ARE NO ANX.FRAMEWORK DEVELOPER. We will catch up soon with a tested and working version.
- Refactored the AddIn-System to allow merged assemblies (for metro, android, etc. later on)
- Added empty PsVita Sound and Media System modules
- Fixed 2 small missing excludes in the build script
- Cleaned the License headers in the shader files
- Some other refactorings
- Started Windows, Metro and Linux Platform-Plugins
- Moved the RecordingSample to the Samples folder
- Started two samples for using the graphics device in a WinForms and Wpf Editor
- Refactorings in the AddIn-System
- Moved the Window initialization-code to the Platform modules
- Changed the License text in all code files which is now way smaller
- Started ProjectConverter tool which converts all the projects and solution to the target configuration
- Changed the SupportedPlatform names in the Resource files
- Changed the WIN8 define to WINDOWSMETRO which is actually meant
- Removed NLog and started our own Logger class
- Many more stuff...
- Made the plugin handling internally way simpler (no tons of duplicated code anymore)
- Added empty MediaSystem to have a default for now (Windows.OpenAL)
- Added a PercentageCompleteAttribute which will be used to mark the current state of a class (0-100%)
extended InputSystem selector in WindowsGame sample
fixed some interface issues in XInput InputSystem
added FormatConvert to InputSystem XInput to translate GamePadButtons from XInput to ANX
