-> Don't pass pointer to whole IGameDef to NodeMetadata constructors
and deserializers, but only to IItemDefManager, which is needed
-> Remove the unused content_mapnode_get_new_name() method
-> Fix style for MapBlock::deSerialize and MapBlock::deSerialize_pre22,
improving accuracy of error messages a bit
-> Fix style at other serialisation methods too
-> Improve accuracy of some comments
1. Do two renames:
* SER_FMT_CLIENT_VER_LOWEST -> SER_FMT_VER_LOWEST_WRITE
* SER_FMT_VER_LOWEST -> SER_FMT_VER_LOWEST_READ
Now the two define values are consistently named with the _WRITE defines
SER_FMT_VER_{HIGHEST,LOWEST}_WRITE, and to better point out what the two
serialisation versions actually are for.
2. wrap some lines in doc/worldformat.txt, and point out that the node
timers are serialized at a later point, as this can cause confusion about
what now happens (if one doesn't strictly read the if block's conditions).
3. some whitespace fixes in NodeTimerList::serialize, and one new comment.
* Rename everything.
* Strip J prefix.
* Change UpperCamelCase functions to lowerCamelCase.
* Remove global (!) semaphore count mutex on OSX.
* Remove semaphore count getter (unused, unsafe, depended on internal
API functions on Windows, and used a hack on OSX).
* Add `Atomic<type>`.
* Make `Thread` handle thread names.
* Add support for C++11 multi-threading.
* Combine pthread and win32 sources.
* Remove `ThreadStarted` (unused, unneeded).
* Move some includes from the headers to the sources.
* Move all of `Event` into its header (allows inlining with no new includes).
* Make `Event` use `Semaphore` (except on Windows).
* Move some porting functions into `Thread`.
* Integrate logging with `Thread`.
* Add threading test.
* Use enum for GENERIC_CMD_*
* Rename m_attachements to attachement_parent_ids (public member and clearer name)
* Rename GENERIC_CMD_SET_ATTACHMENT to GENERIC_CMD_ATTACH_TO
* USHRT_MAX + 1 buffer sizes to prevent overflows as @kahrl suggested
* Remove unneccessary m_id from GenericCAO (shadowing protected superclass member for no reason) as @kahrl suggested
Spare direct multoplication, use constant MapBlock::nodecount instead of
local nodecount variables.
Also use strides at one place instead of multiplications.
When SER_FMT_VER_LOWEST is set to zero, then the test is stupid in INIT because all client works. In mapblock we check if client's serialization version is < 24, but if client sent serialization version < 24 (15 for example) the server set it and tried to send nodes, then BOOM
To resolve the problem:
* Create a different CLIENT_MIN_VERSION to handle this problem
* Remove the exception
* Use an assert in case of bad developer code
nerzhul is (may?) be working on a new solution. For the moment this is reverted because old worlds cannot be loaded (see discussion on github for the commit).
This reverts commit 800d19270250bb13cc6b2d330199815bf8e96446.
