SDL_strcasecmp (even when calling into a C runtime) does not work with
Unicode chars, and depending on the user's locale, might not work with
even basic ASCII strings.
This implements the function from scratch, using "case-folding,"
which is a more robust method that deals with various languages. It
involves a hashtable of a few hundred codepoints that are "uppercase" and
how to map them to lowercase equivalents (possibly increasing the size of
the string in the process). The vast majority of human languages (and
Unicode) do not have letters with different cases, but still, this static
table takes about 10 kilobytes on a 64-bit machine.
Even this will fail in one known case: the Turkish 'i' folds differently
if you're writing in Turkish vs other languages. Generally this is seen as
unfortunate collateral damage in cases where you can't specify the language
in use.
In addition to case-folding the codepoints, the new functions also know how
to decode the various formats to turn them into codepoints in the first
place, instead of blindly stepping by one byte (or one wchar_t) per
character.
Also included is casefolding.txt from the Unicode Consortium and a perl
script to generate the hashtable from that text file, so we can trivially
update this if new languages are added in the future.
A simple test using the new function:
```c
#include <SDL3/SDL.h>
int main(void)
{
const char *a = "α ε η";
const char *b = "Α Ε Η";
SDL_Log(" strcasecmp(\"%s\", \"%s\") == %d\n", a, b, strcasecmp(a, b));
SDL_Log("SDL_strcasecmp(\"%s\", \"%s\") == %d\n", a, b, SDL_strcasecmp(a, b));
return 0;
}
```
Produces:
```
INFO: strcasecmp("α ε η", "Α Ε Η") == 32
INFO: SDL_strcasecmp("α ε η", "Α Ε Η") == 0
```
glibc strcasecmp() fails to compare a Greek lowercase string to its uppercase
equivalent, even with a UTF-8 locale, but SDL_strcasecmp() works.
Other SDL_stdinc.h functions are changed to be more consistent, which is to
say they now ignore any C runtime and often dictate that only English-based
low-ASCII works with them.
Fixes Issue #9313.
- Always use internal qsort and bsearch implementation.
- add "_r" reentrant versions.
The reasons for always using the internal versions is that the C runtime
versions' callbacks are not mark STDCALL, so we would have add bridge
functions for them anyhow, The C runtime qsort_r/qsort_s have different
orders of arguments on different platforms, and most importantly: qsort()
isn't a stable sort, and isn't guaranteed to give the same ordering for
two objects marked as equal by the callback...as such, Visual Studio and
glibc can give different sort results for the same data set...in this
sense, having one piece of code shared on all platforms makes sense here,
for reliabillity.
bsearch does not have a standard _r version at all, and suffers from the
same SDLCALL concern. Since the code is simple and we would have to work
around the C runtime, it's easier to just go with the built-in function
and remove all the CMake C runtime tests.
Fixes#9159.
This uses the same `SDL_VerbNoun` format as the rest of SDL3, and also
adds stronger effort to invalidate cached state in the backend, so cooperation
improves with apps that are using lowlevel rendering APIs directly.
Fixes#367.
Fully committing to it...!
This left SDL_wave.* alone for now, since there's a ton of comments in there
and this code hasn't changed much from SDL2 so far. But as SDL2 ages out a
little more, I'll likely switch this over, too.
The following objects now have properties that can be user modified:
* SDL_AudioStream
* SDL_Gamepad
* SDL_Joystick
* SDL_RWops
* SDL_Renderer
* SDL_Sensor
* SDL_Surface
* SDL_Texture
* SDL_Window
This insert files to the Xcode and Visual Studio projects, so you can add
sources to the build without having to find a Mac or Windows machine with
the appropriate tools installed, and manually update four different sets of
projects across them.
This doesn't touch CMake, but you can add files to that with a text editor
(hopefully) without drama.
This, like all Perl code, is fragile. Report bugs and don't push it too hard.
Otherwise they appear in random order, which isn't ideal in general, but
also this breaks the wiki/header bridge because it can't produce identical
conversions per-run.
The sequence order of the four paddles is not obvious, with SDL and Xbox
controllers swapping the order of P2 and P3 relative to each other.
If we group them into left and right, then it becomes more obvious.

The current status is stored in the SDL_rwops 'status' field to be able to determine whether a 0 return value is caused by end of file, an error, or a non-blocking source not being ready.
The functions to read sized datatypes now return SDL_bool so you can detect read errors.

Also renamed SDL_GetDisplayOrientation() SDL_GetDisplayCurrentOrientation()
The natural orientation of the primary display is the frame of reference for accelerometer and gyro sensor readings.
We have gotten feedback that abstracting the coordinate system based on the display scale is unexpected and it is difficult to adapt existing applications to the proposed API.
The new approach is to provide the coordinate systems that people expect, but provide additional information that will help applications properly handle high DPI situations.
The concepts needed for high DPI support are documented in README-highdpi.md. An example of automatically adapting the content to display scale changes can be found in SDL_test_common.c, where auto_scale_content is checked.
Also, the SDL_WINDOW_ALLOW_HIGHDPI window flag has been replaced by the SDL_HINT_VIDEO_ENABLE_HIGH_PIXEL_DENSITY hint.

- SDL_AudioCVT is gone, even internally.
- libsamplerate is gone (I suspect our resampler is finally Good Enough).
- Cleanups and improvements to audio conversion interfaces.
- SDL_AudioStream can change its input/output format/rate/channels on the fly!
It turns out there's a race condition on X11 where the window could be placed by the window manager while being placed by the application, so we need to have the initial position available at window creation.
This script relies on string indexes in parameter expansions, which
aren't suppored by /bin/sh (e.g. dash).
