* GlueGen Struct [8]: Revised setter (resolved shrinking array, using 'subset' ↵Sven Gothel2023-06-171-410/+97
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | flag), added (detailed) JavaDoc in generated code Revised setter: A) int32_t val[10] -> setter for a subset change only, as-is with args[src, srcPos, destPos, length] - no new memory, reuse only - no special action to be performed B) int32_t* val -> setter with toggle 'subset' with args[subset, src, srcPos, destPos, length], - replace memory w/ 'subset==false' where it also may copy 'destPos' gap from old -> new - reuse memory w/ 'subset==true', where destPos+length <= elementCount C) const int32_t* val -> setter to replace referenced memory only args[src, srcPos, length] - always replaces memory, no copy of a gap (no destPos) Hence: - case (A) stays as is - case (B) will be revised and argument 'boolean subset' added - case (C) will be revised (simplified) and argument 'destPos' removed
* GlueGen Struct [5]: Revised Struct Mapping + DocumentationSven Gothel2023-06-161-0/+1372
GlueGen Revised Struct Mapping (esp pointer to array or single element), Struct String Charset, .. and Documentation - Documentation: - Added README.md Let's have a proper face for the git repo - Added doc/GlueGen_Mapping.md (and its html conversion doc/GlueGen_Mapping.html) Created a new document covering application and implementation details suitable for users/devs. - Added doc/JogAmpMacOSVersions.md conversion to doc/JogAmpMacOSVersions.html - Updated www/index.html - Use *CodeUnit instead of PrintWriter, representing a Java or C code unit covering a set of functions and structs. The CCodeUnit also handles common code shared by its unit across functions etc. - Dropping 'static initializer', as its no more required due to simplified `JVMUtil_NewDirectByteBufferCopy()` variant. - Revised Struct Mapping: - Pure Java implementation to map primitive and struct fields within a struct by utilizing ElementBuffer. Only 'Function Pointer' fields within a struct require native code. Exposes `static boolean usesNativeCode()` to query whether native code is used/required. - Transparent native memory address API Expose `long getDirectBufferAddress()` and `static TK_Struct derefPointer(long addr)`, allowing to - pass the native struct-pointer with native code - reconstruct the struct from a native struct-pointer - have a fully functional `TK_Struct.derefPointer(struct.getDirectBufferAddress())` cycle. - Add 'boolean is<Val>Null() to query whether a pointer (array) is NULL - *Changed* array get/set method for more flexibility alike `System.arraycopy(src, srcPos, dest, destPos, len)`, where 'src' is being dropped for the getter and 'dest' is being dropped for the setter as both objects are reflected by the struct instance. - *Changed* `get<Val>ArrayLength()` -> `get<Val>ElemCount()` for clarity - Considering all ConstElemCount values with config 'ReturnedArrayLength <int>' to be owned by native code -> NativeOwnership -> Not changing the underlying memory region! JavaOwnership is considered for all pointer-arrays not of NativeOwnership. Hence any setter on a NativeOwnership pointer-array will fail with non-matching elem-count. - Add 'release<Val>()' for JavaOwnership pointer-arrays, allowing to release the Java owned native memory incl. null-ing pointer and set<Val>ElemCount(0). - Support setter for 'const <type>*' w/ JavaOwnership, i.e. pointer to const value of a primitive or struct, setter and getter using pointer to array or single element in general. - Added Config `ImmutableAccess symbol` to disable all setter for whole struct or a field - Added Config `MaxOneElement symbol` to restrict a pointer to maximum one element and unset initial value (zero elements) - Added Config `ReturnsStringOnly symbol` to restrict mapping only to a Java String, dropping the ByteBuffer variant for 'char' - String mapping default is UTF-8 and can be read and set via [get|set]Charset(..) per class. - Dynamic string length retrieval in case no `ReturnedArrayLength` has been configured has changed from `strlen()` to `strnlen(aptr, max_len)` to be on the safe site. The maximum length default is 8192 bytes and can be read and set via [get|set]MaxStrnlen(..) per class. FIXME: strnlen(..) using EOS byte non-functional for non 8-bit codecs like UTF-8, US-ASCII. This is due to e.g. UTF-16 doesn't use an EOS byte, but interprets it as part of a code point. - TODO: Perhaps a few more unit tests - TODO: Allow plain 'int' to be mapped in structs IFF their size is same for all MachineDescriptions used. Currently this is the case -> 4 bytes like int32_t.
