We made a mistake when cherry-picking #80612 with 269b115d9c,
where the global flag was defaulted to false to preserve the 4.1-stable behavior for desktop
platforms, but we forgot that the refactoring removed the force disabling of exceptions for
Android, iOS, and Web.
This reintroduces this behavior so it should be back to the same as in 4.1/4.1.1, and the
export templates should get back to their original size.
Only difference, the old code used to keep exceptions for the Web editor, but I see no reason
for it, so I disable them like with the templates.
Upon investigating the extremely slow MSVC build times in #80513, I noticed
that while Godot policy is to never use exceptions, we weren't enforcing it
with compiler flags, and thus still included exception handling code and
stack unwinding.
This is wasteful on multiple aspects:
- Binary size: Around 20% binary size reduction with exceptions disabled
for both MSVC and GCC binaries.
- Compile time:
* More than 50% build time reduction with MSVC.
* 10% to 25% build time reduction with GCC + LTO.
- Performance: Possibly, needs to be benchmarked.
Since users may want to re-enable exceptions in their own thirdparty code
or the libraries they compile with Godot, this behavior can be toggled with
the `disable_exceptions` SCons option, which defaults to true.
(cherry picked from commit 3907e53ff6)
Follow-up to #75932.
Since these icons are only used by the export plugin, it makes sense to
move them and generate the headers there.
The whole `detect.is_active()` logic seems to be a leftover from before
times, as far back as 1.0-stable it already wasn't used for anything.
So I'm removing it and moving the export icon generation to
`platform_methods`, where it makes more sense.
Add necessary build flags and switch from using a
GLES2 context to a GLES3 one.
This also enables building for OpenXR

- `LIBC_FILEIO_ENABLED` wasn't defined anywhere, even in _other platforms_.
- `NO_NETWORK` is also never defined. It probably isn't enough anyway to
disable network APIs in the current codebase.
- `UNIX_SOCKET_UNAVAILABLE` is never defined in this code but used by some
other platforms, clarify that.
- `NO_STATVFS` can be removed as Android supports it since API level 19,
which is our current min SDK level. It's also only used for
`DirAccessUnix::get_space_left()` which is anyway overridden by
`DirAccessJAndroid::get_space_left()` so it shouldn't make a difference.
* Fixed documentation for `DirAccess.get_space_left()`.
- `NO_FCNTL` is likely also a remnant of early Android days, in current NDK
r23 it seems to be available. Also cleaned up unused `fcntl.h` includes.
- `NO_ALLOCA` is never defined, and we use alloca in many places now.
Android was the last platform to still attempt to disable RTTI (for binary
size), but both the Android editor and now the ICU library used by templates
need RTTI.
There could still be the possibility to support this for non-ICU template
builds (i.e. without the TextServerAdvanced module), but since this isn't one
of the build configurations we test regularly it's pretty risky to keep this
option only for that specific use case. And our code is already littered with
`dynamic_cast`s which weren't guarded with `!defined(NO_SAFE_CAST)`.
Implements https://github.com/godotengine/godot-proposals/issues/3371.
New `target` presets
====================
The `tools` option is removed and `target` changes to use three new presets,
which match the builds users are familiar with. These targets control the
default optimization level and enable editor-specific and debugging code:
- `editor`: Replaces `tools=yes target=release_debug`.
* Defines: `TOOLS_ENABLED`, `DEBUG_ENABLED`, `-O2`/`/O2`
- `template_debug`: Replaces `tools=no target=release_debug`.
* Defines: `DEBUG_ENABLED`, `-O2`/`/O2`
- `template_release`: Replaces `tools=no target=release`.
* Defines: `-O3`/`/O2`
New `dev_build` option
======================
The previous `target=debug` is now replaced by a separate `dev_build=yes`
option, which can be used in combination with either of the three targets,
and changes the following:
- `dev_build`: Defines `DEV_ENABLED`, disables optimization (`-O0`/`/0d`),
enables generating debug symbols, does not define `NDEBUG` so `assert()`
works in thirdparty libraries, adds a `.dev` suffix to the binary name.
Note: Unlike previously, `dev_build` defaults to off so that users who
compile Godot from source get an optimized and small build by default.
Engine contributors should now set `dev_build=yes` in their build scripts or
IDE configuration manually.
Changed binary names
====================
The name of generated binaries and object files are changed too, to follow
this format:
`godot.<platform>.<target>[.dev][.double].<arch>[.<extra_suffix>][.<ext>]`
For example:
- `godot.linuxbsd.editor.dev.arm64`
- `godot.windows.template_release.double.x86_64.mono.exe`
Be sure to update your links/scripts/IDE config accordingly.
More flexible `optimize` and `debug_symbols` options
====================================================
The optimization level and whether to generate debug symbols can be further
specified with the `optimize` and `debug_symbols` options. So the default
values listed above for the various `target` and `dev_build` combinations
are indicative and can be replaced when compiling, e.g.:
`scons p=linuxbsd target=template_debug dev_build=yes optimize=debug`
will make a "debug" export template with dev-only code enabled, `-Og`
optimization level for GCC/Clang, and debug symbols. Perfect for debugging
complex crashes at runtime in an exported project.
- `_DEBUG` is MSVC specific so it didn't make much sense to define for
Android and iOS builds.
- iOS was the only platform to define `DEBUG`. We don't use it anywhere
outside thirdparty code, which we usually don't intend to debug, so it
seems better to be consistent with other platforms.
- Consistently define `NDEBUG` to disable assert behavior in both `release`
and `release_debug` targets. This used to be set for `release` for all
platforms, and `release_debug` for Android and iOS only.
- Due to the above, I removed the only use we made of `assert()` in Godot
code, which was only implemented for Unix anyway, should have been
`DEV_ENABLED`, and is in PoolAllocator which we don't actually use.
- The denoise and recast modules keep defining `NDEBUG` even for the `debug`
target as we don't want OIDN and Embree asserting all over the place.
- `-fomit-frame-pointer` is included automatically by both GCC and
Clang in `-O1` and above.
- `-ftree-vectorize` is included automatically by GCC in `-O2` and
beyond, and seems always enabled by Clang.
Closes#66296. See that issue for a detailed investigation.
Adds support for LTO on macOS and Android. We don't have much experience
with LTO on these platforms so for now we keep it disabled by default
even when `production=yes` is set.
Similarly for iOS where we ship object files for the user to link in
Xcode so LTO makes builds extremely slow to link.
`production=yes` defaults to full LTO.
ThinLTO is much faster for LLVM-based compilers but seems to produce
bigger binaries (at least for the Web platform).
This will allow adding developer checks which will be fully compiled out in
user builds, unlike `DEBUG_ENABLED` which is included in debug tempates and
the editor builds.
This define is not used yet, but we'll soon add code that uses it, and change
some existing `DEBUG_ENABLED` checks to be performed only in dev builds.

All Android devices that support Vulkan support 64-bit ARM.
This also removes NEON opt-out code for ARMv7 as pretty much all
ARMv7 devices also support NEON.
We found that this flag causes this error on PR #48812 which does not add any
fancy inline assembly:
```
/tmp/tile_set-ce236a.s: Assembler messages:
/tmp/tile_set-ce236a.s:34676: Error: selected processor does not support `bfc x0,#32,#32'
clang++: error: assembler command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)
```
That flag is mentioned in various errors related to assembler failures on
arm64v8 with Clang from the Android NDK.
It was added in Godot in #6958 when migrating from GCC to Clang, and is indeed
referenced in the NDK's Clang migration guide:
https://android.googlesource.com/platform/ndk/+/master/docs/ClangMigration.md
> Especially for ARM and ARM64, Clang is much stricter about assembler rules
> than GCC/GAS. Use `-fno-integrated-as` if Clang reports errors in inline
> assembly or assembly files that you don't wish to modernize.
We don't get those errors nowadays so it seems the flag is no longer needed.
This changes the types of a big number of variables.
General rules:
- Using `uint64_t` in general. We also considered `int64_t` but eventually
settled on keeping it unsigned, which is also closer to what one would expect
with `size_t`/`off_t`.
- We only keep `int64_t` for `seek_end` (takes a negative offset from the end)
and for the `Variant` bindings, since `Variant::INT` is `int64_t`. This means
we only need to guard against passing negative values in `core_bind.cpp`.
- Using `uint32_t` integers for concepts not needing such a huge range, like
pages, blocks, etc.
In addition:
- Improve usage of integer types in some related places; namely, `DirAccess`,
core binds.
Note:
- On Windows, `_ftelli64` reports invalid values when using 32-bit MinGW with
version < 8.0. This was an upstream bug fixed in 8.0. It breaks support for
big files on 32-bit Windows builds made with that toolchain. We might add a
workaround.

This is what GitHub Actions now provide and they removed the previous 21.3.6528147.
A bit annoying to have our hand forced this way but it's still 21.x so should be good
to upgrade.
Until https://github.com/psf/black/pull/1328 makes it in a stable release,
we have to use the latest from Git.
Apply new style fixes done by latest black.
Its last use was removed in Godot 3.0, so it no longer makes sense to define.
Also removed `D3D_DEBUG_INFO` for Windows as it's likely a left over from a
long time ago pre-opensourcing when Godot had some form of Direct3D 9 support?
Configured for a max line length of 120 characters.
psf/black is very opinionated and purposely doesn't leave much room for
configuration. The output is mostly OK so that should be fine for us,
but some things worth noting:
- Manually wrapped strings will be reflowed, so by using a line length
of 120 for the sake of preserving readability for our long command
calls, it also means that some manually wrapped strings are back on
the same line and should be manually merged again.
- Code generators using string concatenation extensively look awful,
since black puts each operand on a single line. We need to refactor
these generators to use more pythonic string formatting, for which
many options are available (`%`, `format` or f-strings).
- CI checks and a pre-commit hook will be added to ensure that future
buildsystem changes are well-formatted.
As of 3.1 and later, we have too many thirdparty C++ dependencies
and some internal uses of `new` and `delete` too for it to make
sense to build without the STL on Android.
The option has been broken since 3.0, and the "System STL" that we
relied on for basic support of `new` and `delete` is likely to be
dropped from the NDK:
https://android.googlesource.com/platform/ndk/+/ndk-release-r20/docs/BuildSystemMaintainers.md#System-STL
It's the recommended way to set those, and is more portable
(automatically prepends -D for GCC/Clang and /D for MSVC).
We still use CPPFLAGS for some pre-processor flags which are not
defines.
Those were disable to keep size small, and on Android avoid the dependency on the STL,
but for tools build (editor) this is not really a concern.
Note: as of today it's not possible to build tools=yes for those platforms, but this
change is one of the necessary steps to enable it.
Fixes#25262.
