This happens if load_dso fails due to being unable to find the file, but not setting the dlerror flag and therefore causing a misleading error message to be shown.
The main motivation behind this change is to get rid of a
signed integer overflow that sometimes happens in the prime
multiplication step, which is (per the C++ spec) undefined
behavior. However, it's probably for the best to use only
unsigned int when the function is clearly trying to avoid
negative values.
Not that I suspect it matters much, but I have also heavily
tested that the behavior of the function is unchanged (at
least on PC hardware - signed integer overflow doesn't
behave portably) although it may now be slightly faster due
to the fact that I have removed the floating-point math.
This is used similar to matches() but for file paths: it does not match slashes for * characters and has special support for /**/ and ignores // and /./ patterns.
Even a brief error message in the assertion is infinitely more useful to a user who is not at home in the source code, especially for assertions that may reasonably be triggered by honest user mistakes.
It's not really reasonable to expect a user to find every occurrence of a cached resource that might be using an open stream and remove it or crash otherwise.
This is fixed by keeping the multifile stream open as long as any substreams are still pointing to it, using a simplified reference counting (care is taken not to fully make StreamWrapper reference-counted, since it's not in express and existing uses should not be broken).

While it becomes possible to do this now, it should not become standard practice, and we should deprecate cases where we already do it by renaming either the static method or the property.
Fixes#444
This changes includes so that local includes are consistently
#include "localFile.h"
while system and third-party includes are consistently
#include <systemFile.h>
This commit mostly converts the former to the latter; the two
exceptions are in android_main.cxx and fmodAudioSound.h, where
the reverse was necessary.
This is to fix eg. public ButtonHandle members from being returned as const reference, which means they won't outlive the struct they are accessed on, a recipe for obscure crashes.
The is_trivial() criterium for this to apply is admittedly really arbitrary; I haven't really figured out what the right criterium should be, but it's better than hardcoding ButtonHandle.
- Support encoding and decoding four-byte UTF-8 sequences
- E_unicode supports surrogate pairs, renamed to E_utf16be for clarity
- char32_t should be used for storing a Unicode code point
The no-arguments get_text() and set_text() will now return Unicode strings in Python 3, but passing in an encoding will make them return/take bytes objects.
In Python 2, they all take regular strings, but Unicode is also accepted by the no-argument get_text() and set_text().
In the future we probably want to remove most of this interface for Python users, to whom all this is unnecessary since it duplicates functionality already in the standard library.
This is not perfect, and we need to more thoroughly address thread safety in the PRC system, but it will nonetheless address a lot of the race condition issues when querying these variables from two threads at the same time.
This reimplements the spinlock on top of std::atomic_flag, which is guaranteed to be lockless. It also inserts the PAUSE (REP NOP) instruction which is strongly recommended to be placed in busy-wait loops by Intel.
This also includes a recursive spinlock implementation.
The spinlock implementation is disabled by default, but can be enabled by adding the --override MUTEX_SPINLOCK=1 flag to makepanda.
For example, this will let us pass a ConfigVariableFilename to anything that accepts a Filename, just like in C++.
Does not work if the return value if the typecast operator requires management.
Currently, the WeakPointerTo comparison operators compare the raw pointers, but this is not useful as it may cause a false equality if one weak pointer in the comparison is expired and points to memory that has since been reused.
Instead, we can define a comparison based on the control block pointer, which exists since the new weak pointer implementation in 0bb81a43c9. This is implemented in the owner_before method, matching C++11 std::weak_ptr semantics.
I would now recommend deprecating most comparison operators of WeakPointerTo or redefining them to make more sense, ie. comparing equal if they (once) referred to the same object and not if they simply point to the same memory address. This has not yet been done, though code that uses the comparison operators has been fixed in this commit.
Overloads of std::owner_less have been provided for creating a map or set with Weak(Const)PointerTo keys.
Only the basics are supported; the __members__ or iter interface is not supported at this time.

If a class inherits from ReferenceCount, it can be destructed by downcasting to ReferenceCount, so it should not be an obstacle to properly clean it up when such a class is returned from C++.
This issue comes up when a CycleData is returned via MemoryUsagePointers, which is not exposed so is wrapped as NodeReferenceCount instead, which has a protected destructor.
If any code is relying on this, please let me know and I will add it back. It appears to be redundant, though, since one can access DtoolClassDict directly.
Symbol kept around temporarily in order to keep ABI compatibility for a short while as people may not update their interrogate and Panda in sync, but it can soon be removed.
I don't know if this is the right solution, but it does fix an issue accessing std::ios::openmode caused by the ios typedef being defined before ios_base is fully specified.
Rationale:
1. Per standard, fstream::open takes 2 arguments.
If platforms add a third, they're out of spec.
2. The only platform I could find that takes a file
mask specifically as the third argument is IRIX,
which Panda hasn't targeted in forever.
3. The mask being requested isn't even particularly
interesting - falling back to a platform default
is best.
4. When USE_PANDAFILESTREAM is defined, pfstream
is implemented as PandaFileStream, which doesn't
have a three-argument open() and breaks immediately.
5. makepanda doesn't ever define HAVE_OPEN_MASK
6. It's been broken for so long that, if it were
important to anybody, it would have been fixed by now.
There is a bug in clang versions before 3.2 (including the one shipped with Xcode) that makes it give a "conflicting types" compile error when there is a static constexpr function defined outside the class. The way to work around this is either to remove one of the "static" or "constexpr" keywords, or to simply put the definition inline.
See: https://stackoverflow.com/a/17494592/2135754
I would try and upgrade Xcode to version 5 to see if the problem is fixed, but the buildbot still runs OS X Lion (10.7) and the last version of Xcode that works on Lion is 4.6.3, so it seems easier to just apply these workarounds for now.
This renames acquire/release to lock/unlock in order to be compatible with std::lock_guard and std::unique_lock (which will eventually replace the *MutexHolder classes). It will also allow us to typedef MutexImpl to std::mutex later on.
