Both Android and iOS now use pause/resume. The map thread is
always running, and be able to receive messages. When paused,
it will just refuse to render.
previously, we used multiple different projects for various targets (app, test, render) that overwrote each other, so it was impossible to have one project to build them all, one project to compile them, one project to run them all and in the darkness bind them
Thread<T> is a generic thread management object that starts a thread, creates an object T in that thread and calls its .start() function. When the Thread<T> object is destructed (which must happen in the thread that created it), it'll call the object's .stop() function, and wait for thread termination. The .stop() function must somehow get the thread to terminate. Note that object T's constructor/destructor/start()/stop() must be protected/private, and Thread<T> must be declared as a friend class. All public functions may be called from any thread and are exposed through operator->().
RunLoop encapsulates a libuv runloop and has a facility of dispatching function objects to the thread. It can be used either as a worker thread class by itself, or it can be derived from. This commit converts SQLiteCache to derive from RunLoop and removes the custom code used previously for managing the cache thread.
No initialization is needed anymore and we can use the logging functions
safely at any point of the code (threading is not handled though, so you
might get multiplexed messages if you log from two threads
simultaneously).
fixes#838
instead of rendering ad libitum on the map thread, we are now driving rendering from the UI thread on iOS via the map.renderSync() function. There are still white bars during the rotation, but the general content of the view is kept visible.
- upgrades GLFW to 3.1
- removes swapped/needsSwap in favor of a more explicit scheme
- View#invalidate() now replaces View#swap() and is called whenever the View needs to trigger a rerender. GLFW and Android to this right away, while iOS goes back to the main thread and does the Map redrawing as part of the GLKView update
- sets all iOS deployment targets to 7.0
- disables SQLite3 version check, since the library version changed on iOS 8.2
