Month 3, Week1
Author: Devin Wright
This week was spent writing out the implementation for handling Xbox controller vibration on Windows, removing 32-bit from support from our cmake files, and starting on the Linux implementation of GController. I had previously added the interface for the vibration support before the break, then I spent the first two days back writing out its unit test, implementing the Xbox version of the methods, and tested it to make sure everything works. After, that I began removing 32-bit support from the cmake files. This had to be done since as of the Mojave update for Mac Os 32-bit is no longer supported, and the cmake was unable to create a solution for Gateware on Mac. This was done by removing the calls to create 32-bit files from the "command line" files (.bat, .command, and a unix executable for Windows, Mac, and Linux respectively).
When it comes to implementing Linux there is a lot less work compared to implementing Windows since most of the groundwork has now been laid. For Linux, I mainly just need to integrate the code from my Linux demos, and then just make whatever changes are needed to get them properly running. The idea is to have a thread for each controller being processed and have these threads handled by the loop running the inotify events. The controllers will then be handled in their own event loops where their input will be processed and stored in the controllers' array.
