VICE threaded UI test builds

In this thread i will post test builds of the (hopefully) soon to be merged threaded ui rewrite.

Linux and OSX users can always grab the current state from dqh's git repo here: https://github.com/dqh-github/vice-experiments/tree/threaded-ui.. (make sure to checkout the "threaded-ui-exp" branch after cloning the repo)

Please test and report back positive and negative results. Especially interesting right now are rendering errors/problems and unexpected crashes. Please tell exactly what OS you are using, and what GPU.

I will keep posting new windows builds here - starting with todays: https://sourceforge.net/projects/vice-emu/files/experimental%20..

64bit only right now - i'll have to figure out how to build proper 32bit binaries on my box (not that you should be still using a 32bit OS in 2020).

I assume GTK3 should be tested? No special ./configure params?

macOS Catalina 10.15.4
Intel UHD Graphics 630
(x86_64-apple-darwin19.4.0)
GTK 3.24.18
./configure --enable-native-gtk3ui --enable-embedded
host_vsync_macos.m:30:10: fatal error: 'NSOpenGL.h' file not found

OpenGL was deprecated in macOS 10.14...

I assume you just need a way of vsyncing on MacOS. This is normally done via the CVDisplayLink. See example here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/14158743/alternative-of-cad..

Clicking on "CRT controls" occasionally just shows thin borderlines and the content from the windows / desktop below:

Didn't happen with the "Mixer controls" switch so far.

Ryzen 3700X, RX 5700, Gnome 3 "Classic" X-Session.
Kernel 5.6.13-arch1-1, mesa 20.0.7-2, gtk3 1:3.24.20-1, gnome-desktop 1:3.36.2-1, xorg-server 1.20.8-2

Don't really know what to look for. Wild clicking through the menus and wild resize / fullscreen toggling seems to be stable.

EDIT: added more detailed sys specs

No, obviously also for rendering GL is needed. Without that, prepare for using the SDL port =P (Who would have thought dropping GL was the silliest idea apple ever had).

Couldn't agree more. The SDL port is awesome once I understood how to make my own keybindings.

I'll try to check if there are GL backports somehow.

OpenGL will go the way of the dodo, on all platforms, eventually.
Sure, Khronos Group will try to convince you that it will stay around forever, but as GPU architectures change, the resources to keep OpenGL in a working state for legacy software on that newer hardware is going to become unsustainable. It's design is just too contradictory with how GPUs work already now, but it will become worse in the future.
There are certainly a few years left before that happens though, and even after that you'll see enthusiasts (Mesa?) hack new drivers together somehow.
But it seems that now would be a great time to consider alternatives. But there's no single API for all platforms, so VICE is out of luck.

Anyway. I commented out the vsync code since this is just to change swapIntervals for the currrent gl context. Then it built but seg faults. (master branch VICE builds fine and doesn't crash).

Do you have Xcode installed? What version? Are you following the build instructions at https://sourceforge.net/p/vice-emu/code/HEAD/tree/trunk/vice/do.. ?

Edit: I just edited those instructions to stop recommending that we disable OpenGL during the build.

X64sc crash if i open monitor (Alt+h) then try i command like "d" with:

I hadn't been testing with --enable-debug , it turns out that the memory debug code wasn't thread safe. I have pushed a fix for this, thanks.
