Function 'hello_world_0' uses (rougly said) a system call instead of a function, but I don't even know what will different compilers do to that line of code. What's a system call?
|
|
Well, when you're writing assembly, you have some general purpose registers, on mine and your machine, there's 16 of them, and you move some data in them, then use 'syscall'
|
|
instruction, which magically does something, like open or close a file descriptor, read or write to it, but more on that later! A lot more... Important thing to know is that when
|
|
you use keyword 'sizeof' on a string, it'll count null terminator, so it'll have value 14, and type 'size_t'. It's provided in <unistd.h> header file.
|
|
|
|
@C
|
|
write ( // mov rax 1 ; Literal of Linux write system call, defined internally.
|
|
STDOUT_FILENO, // mov rdi 1 ; Literal of standard output file descriptor, defined as 'STDOUT_FILENO'.
|
|
"Hello world!\n", // mov rsi X ; Address of our string.
|
|
sizeof ("Hello world!\n") // mov rdx [Y] ; Literal of size of our string.
|
|
); // syscall ; Ask kernel to do some work.
|
|

|

We'll talk about assembly a lot in future chapters, but you should filter that out of your brain until you learn C well...

some of them use both, like old teleprinters used to do, where the name 'tty' on UNIX-based operating systems comes from.

Lastly, we have a global variable, some people like to call it that, and consider it evil. It's not evil if you know the pros and cons of using them, which causes intellectual
|
|
overhead for certain sort of people. Pros, makes your code shorter and easier to refactor. Cons, it can potentially make your code less safe if you don't know what you're doing.
|
|
You should use them, external variables as I like to call them, when you're working on your programs or in a small group, but they can lead to bad things if you're working with a
|
|
lot of people, someone could change it in some bad place, and cause a bug that's difficult to track.
|
|
|
|
We could initialize it also in any part of our code later, in some function for example, as following:
|
|
|
|
@C
|
|
// One by one:
|
|
hello_world [0] = hello_world_0;
|
|
hello_world [1] = hello_world_1;
|
|
hello_world [2] = hello_world_2;
|
|
hello_world [3] = hello_world_3;
|
|
|
|
// Or use it for some completely unrelated function if we wanted to, as long as function "kind" is same, they both take no input and no output:
|
|
|
|
static void unrelated_function (void) {
|
|
puts ("I couldn't care less...");

exit (EXIT_FAILURE);
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
hello_world [2] = unrelated_function;

Now, we'll talk more about cursed functions! I broke code formatting rules for this, but it's worth it, time to learn. Function or variable with 'static' instead of 'extern'
|
|
keyword before it is internal. That means it'll only be accessable in this file. That way, I can include file "chapter_2.h" in some other file, and know that I can't access or
|
|
modify some internal variable within that other file. They can only be accessed or modified in this file! Lets show some formatting examples below:
|
|
|
|
@C
|
|
static int my_size = 0;
|
|
static char * my_name = "Name";
|
|
static void * my_data = NULL;
|
|
@
|
|
|
|
Unlike when declaring external variables (seen in previous header files), you need to initialize internal variables to some value, like you see above. You shouldn't initialize
|
|
external variables, they have separate definition (initialization in this case). You can see them just below, they are initialized without 'extern' in front of them, and the same
|
|
goes for functions declared in "chapter_2.h", but there's another trick to this... You can declare internal functions before defining them, so you have 2 options for them:
|
|
|
|
@C
|
|
// Option A:
|
|
static void * my_function (char * name, int size);
|
|
|
|
int my_function (char * name, int size) {
|
|
int data = 0;
|
|
|
|
// Do some work involving function arguments and modify data.
|
|
|
|
return (data);
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
// Option B:
|
|
static int my_function (char * name, int size) {
|
|
int data = 0;
|
|
|
|
// Do some work involving function arguments and modify data.
|
|
|
|
return (data);
|
|
}
|
|
@
|
|
|
|
Okay, external variables you see lower (without 'static') are all integers. Lets briefly see what types are the internal variables.
|
|
|
|
- curses_format / curses_format: Array of characters (also known as string!), and their size is already known at the compile time, it's inside square braces.
|
|
- curses_screen: Pointer to character, we'll allocate memory for it later, so it'll be a dynamic array of characters, its' size can change.
|
|
- curses_activator: Pointer to integer, we'll also allocate memory for it, so we can't use square braces for those. Remember that for later.
|
|
- curses_action: Strictly speaking, pointer to another pointer to function of signature 'void SOMETHING (void);', but ignore it for now, don't get confused.
|
|
*/
|
|
|
|
static char curses_format [CURSES_FORMAT + 1] = "\033[-;3-m-\033[0m"; // Internal variable holding data for rendering single character, using ASCII escape sequences.
|
|
static char curses_cursor [CURSES_CURSOR + 1] = "\033[---;---H"; // Internal variable holding data for rendering cursor at some position.
|
|
|
|
static char * curses_screen = NULL; // We hold all terminal screen data here, you can think of it as an image, but better word is a framebuffer.
|
|
|
|
static int curses_action_count = 0; // Count of defined actions, these are part of event handling system.
|

|

I need to quickly explain how I'm structuring this subprogram. You can think of functions and variables starting with 'curses_*' as tiny standalone library if it's easier. They
|
|
deal with terminal input and output. User only needs to call function 'curses_configure' only once, and necessary amount of 'curses_bind' functions, before doing any rendering,
|
|
then make an "infinite" loop that'll stop when external variable 'curses_active' is equal to zero. In that loop, user can call any amount 'curses_render_*' functions, and at the
|
|
end call function 'curses_synchronize' again, only once. So the following program structure would look something like this:
|
|
|
|
@C
|
|
// ...
|
|
int main (int argc, char * * argv) {
|
|
// ...
|
|
curses_configure ();
|
|
|
|
while (curses_active != 0) { // Notice the negative condition, the loop will stop then the condition is 0, so when 'curses_active' is 0.
|
|
// Calling functions 'curses_render_*' and doing other work...
|
|
curses_synchronize ();
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
// ...
|
|
return (0);
|
|
}
|
|
@
|
|
|
|
We don't need to use 'curses_initialize' and the begining of the program, or 'curses_deinitialize' at the end. Also, there are no functions like 'BeginDrawing' or 'EndDrawing',
|
|
with 'Draw*' functions strictly between those two, like you would see in Raylib. We won't cover SDL2 and Raylib in this book, since I think that anyone with minimal knowledge of
|
|
C can efficiently write good programs using those libraries, please don't misunderstand me, those two are good libraries. We'll simply eliminate that "begin" or "end" step in
|
|
our subprogram called 'curses'.

Next two functions are also internal, and we'll use them in our other 'curses_*' functions. The goal of extracting that piece of code into separate functions is to eliminate code
|
|
repetition. Copying and pasting the same piece of code everywhere has pros and cons. Pros are that they're very good indication what should be factored out. The best example that
|
|
comes from top of my head is 'echo' function from chapter zero. It'd be boring to use 'out' everywhere, since it also requires the 'size' argument, and I want to just output
|
|
string literals to terminal in most cases. But that doesn't mean that 'out' is useless, as you'll see, we'll use it in 'curses_synchronize' funcion. Cons are, if you really have
|
|
repeating code all over your program, if there's a bug in one of them, there's a bug in all of them. Also, if you'll use some extracted function (also refered to as refactored in
|
|
some cases) only once, it's not a bad thing. We've extracted some code into 'curses_initialize' function, and we call it only once, inside 'curses_configure' function, but the
|
|
intention behind what it does is clear. However, I still believe that procedural code, that's executed line by line, from top to bottom, is best.
|
|
|
|
Now, we could also implement some error checking functions for 'curses_*' functions. Good idea, when something is wrong, like we want to render a character out of the screen, we
|
|
just print an error message to terminal, right? Well, no. Remember, we're using terminal as a framebuffer (about which we'll talk about a lot more in ray tracing and rasterization
|
|
chapters), so if we just print message there, it'll corrupt our framebuffer. So, we could just write them to some log file. How about binding them, whenever something is wrong,
|
|
we don't just abort the program or stop rendering, but continue running it, while also writing error messages to that same file. Then, when we exit the program, it'll print all
|
|
error messages (if any) normally. Here's how it would look like:
|
|
|
|
@C
|
|
// Enumeration for log type.
|
|
enum {
|
|
LOG_FAILURE, LOG_WARNING, LOG_SUCCESS, LOG_COUNT
|
|
};
|
|
|
|
static void log_in (int type, int condition, char * message);
|
|
static void log_out (char * name);
|
|
|
|
// Usage example:
|
|
log_in (LOG_FAILURE, condition != 0, "function_name: The kind of error that occured or a general notification.");
|
|
log_out ("file_name.log");
|
|
@
|
|
|
|
To be honest, I consider that a bad idea, because if we render something that's not supposed to be rendered (we pass wrong arguments to any of the 'curses_render_*' functions),
|
|
it'll be obvious when we look at it. So, I wrote commented-out examples below of how we'd do it, but it won't be compiled into the final object file. If we pass a wrong value to
|
|
those functions, they'll be fixed (modified), and give the wrong results, which will be obvious when we look at the screen. Nothing will crash or burn.

Finally, we're getting to rendering, something that we can actually see on our screen. There's ASCII escape sequences involved into this, so lets explain them briefly. We
|
|
mentioned in "chapter_2.h" header file about how some of them work. Now, we're extending them, with minimal amount of error checking in order to keep things more clear. Worth
|
|
noting is that not all terminals support all of ASCII escape sequences, but most of them support at least a subset of them. There are many terminals such as ones provided by
|
|
desktop environment (xfce4-terminal, etc.), and independent ones (st, sakura, xterm, etc.), use whatever, it'll (in 99% of cases) work as intended.
|
|
|
|
If you want to know what rendering truly is, it's just copying certain value to some offset. Nothing more...
