The UWP platform port was never ported to the Godot 4.0+ API,
and it's now accumulating bitrot as it doesn't compile, and thus
we no longer propagate platform changes in it.
So we finally remove to acknowledge this state. There's still some
interest in reviving the UWP port eventually, especially as support
for Direct3D 12 will soon be merged, but when that happens it will
be easiest to redo it from scratch.
As many open source projects have started doing it, we're removing the
current year from the copyright notice, so that we don't need to bump
it every year.
It seems like only the first year of publication is technically
relevant for copyright notices, and even that seems to be something
that many companies stopped listing altogether (in a version controlled
codebase, the commits are a much better source of date of publication
than a hardcoded copyright statement).
We also now list Godot Engine contributors first as we're collectively
the current maintainers of the project, and we clarify that the
"exclusive" copyright of the co-founders covers the timespan before
opensourcing (their further contributions are included as part of Godot
Engine contributors).
Also fixed "cf." Frenchism - it's meant as "refer to / see".
- `LIBC_FILEIO_ENABLED` wasn't defined anywhere, even in _other platforms_.
- `NO_NETWORK` is also never defined. It probably isn't enough anyway to
disable network APIs in the current codebase.
- `UNIX_SOCKET_UNAVAILABLE` is never defined in this code but used by some
other platforms, clarify that.
- `NO_STATVFS` can be removed as Android supports it since API level 19,
which is our current min SDK level. It's also only used for
`DirAccessUnix::get_space_left()` which is anyway overridden by
`DirAccessJAndroid::get_space_left()` so it shouldn't make a difference.
* Fixed documentation for `DirAccess.get_space_left()`.
- `NO_FCNTL` is likely also a remnant of early Android days, in current NDK
r23 it seems to be available. Also cleaned up unused `fcntl.h` includes.
- `NO_ALLOCA` is never defined, and we use alloca in many places now.
`CreateDirectoryW()` chokes on absolute paths that contain `..`
example: "C:\\workspace\\..\\games\\assets"
Simplifying the path before creating the dir fixes this.
Each file in Godot has had multiple contributors who co-authored it over the
years, and the information of who was the original person to create that file
is not very relevant, especially when used so inconsistently.
`git blame` is a much better way to know who initially authored or later
modified a given chunk of code, and most IDEs now have good integration to
show this information.
This error message was often displayed for no good reason when PCK
files were loaded in the editor.
Since file modification dates are secondary metadata, it's not
very important if it can't be retrieved successfully anyway.
This restores Windows platform file handling back to open files non-exlusively by default, as was the case before October 2018. (See b902a2f2a7)
Back then, while fixing warnings for MSVC, the function used for opening files was changed from _wfopen() to _wfopen_s() as suggsted by the warning C4996. ("This function may be unsafe, consider using _wfopen_s instead.")
This new function
1. did parameter validation and thus avoided some possible security issues due to nil pointers or wrongly terminated strings
2. it also changed the default file sharing for opened files from _SH_DENYNO (which was the implicit default for the previous _wfopen()) to _SH_SECURE.
_SH_DENYNO means every opened file could be opened by other calls (like is the default on other operating systems).
_SH_SECURE means if the file is opened with READ access, others can still read the same file, but if it is opened with WRITE access, others can't open it at all, not even to read.
This led to rarely occuring bugs on Windows, i.e. due to random access by Antivirus processes, or Godot/Windows not closing a file handle fast enough while trying to open it again elsewhere (i.e. project.godot, instead showing the Project manager, or saving shaders/debugging the game).
What this PR does it change the file access to a third method, _wfsopen(). This is still secure, doing parameter validation and thus avoids the warning, but it allows us to actually SET the file sharing parameter. And we set it to _SH_DENYNO, as it was implicitely before the change. (And as it currently is on all non-Windows platforms, where file sharing restrictions don't exist by default.)
Warning C4996 should really have been pointing this out. It should've been _wfsopen() all along. Let's hope this banishes those annoying, rare errors for all eternity.
Fixes#28036.
* Most resource types now have unique identifiers.
* Applies to text, binary and imported resources.
* File formats reference both by text and UID (when available). UID always has priority.
* Resource UIDs are 64 bits for better compatibility with the engine.
* Can be represented and used textually, example `uuid://dapwmgsmnl28u`.
* A special binary cache file is used and exported, containing the mappings.
Example of how it looks:
```GDScript
[gd_scene load_steps=2 format=3 uid="uid://dw86wq31afig2"]
[ext_resource type="PackedScene" uid="uid://bt36ojelx8q6c" path="res://subscene.scn" id="1_t56hs"]
```
GDScript, shaders and other special resource files can't currently provide UIDs, but this should be doable with special keywords on the files.
This will be reserved for future PRs.
