GLdc: an OpenGL implementation for the SEGA Dreamcast

Falco Girgis 49f2f0917b Nehe20 Build Fix + Warnings cleanup for GCC14.1.0.
Newest toolchain is bitchier, so I wanted to go ahead and clear up all
of the warnings from building GLdc and the various examples...

1) Set CMake CXX standard to 14 instead of 11, since CXXFLAGS were
  enforcing that language standard anyway.
2) Fixed a bunch of strict aliasing violations in immediate.c: glVertex3f.
3) Removed or commented out lots of unused variables.
4) Fixed some "suggested inner braces on initializer" crap.
5) Fixed a bunch of signed vs unsigned pointer assignments.
6) Fixed several printf() warnings from using %d with int32_t (needs to
   be %ld for long int).
7) Fixed build issue with Nehe20 from not including kos.h for the
   KOS_ROMDISK macro.
8) Fixed some signed vs unsigned comparison mismatches in C++ template
   instantiations within clipping tests.

GLdc

Development of GLdc has moved to Gitlab

This is a partial implementation of OpenGL 1.2 for the SEGA Dreamcast for use with the KallistiOS SDK.

It began as a fork of libGL by Josh Pearson but has undergone a large refactor which is essentially a rewrite.

The aim is to implement as much of OpenGL 1.2 as possible, and to add additional features via extensions.

Things left to (re)implement:

  • Spotlights (Trivial)
  • Framebuffer extension (Trivial)
  • Texture Matrix (Trivial)

Things I'd like to do:

  • Use a clean "gl.h"
  • Define an extension for modifier volumes
  • Add support for point sprites
  • Optimise, add unit tests for correctness

Compiling

GLdc uses CMake for its build system, it currently ships with two "backends":

  • kospvr - This is the hardware-accelerated Dreamcast backend
  • software - This is a stub software rasterizer used for testing testing and debugging

To compile a Dreamcast debug build, you'll want to do something like the following:

mkdir dcbuild
cd dcbuild
cmake -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=../toolchains/Dreamcast.cmake -G "Unix Makefiles" ..
make

For a release build, replace the cmake line with with the following:

cmake -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=../toolchains/Dreamcast.cmake -G "Unix Makefiles" -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release ..

You will need KallistiOS compiled and configured (e.g. the KOS_BASE environment variable must be set)

To compile for PC:

mkdir pcbuild
cd pcbuild
cmake -G "Unix Makefiles" ..
make

Special Thanks!
