We don't need to load the code into a vector and then construct a string
over the data. We can just create a string with the necessary size ahead
of time, and read the data directly into it, getting rid of an
unnecessary heap allocation.
std::move does nothing when applied to a const variable. Resources can't
be moved if the object is immutable. With this change, we don't end up
making several unnecessary heap allocations and copies.
Booleans don't have a guaranteed size, but we still want to have them
integrate into the disk cache system without needing to actually use a
different type. We can do this by supplying non-template overloads for
the bool type.
Non-template overloads always have precedence during function
resolution, so this is safe to provide.
This gets rid of the need to smatter ternary conditionals, as well as
the need to use u8 types to store the value in.
Makes the class less surprising when it comes to forward declaring the
type, and also prevents inlining the destruction code of the class,
given it contains non-trivial types.
These are able to be omitted from the declaration of functions, since
they don't do anything at the type system level. The definitions of the
functions can retain the use of const though, since they make the
variables immutable in the implementation of the function where they're
used.
Instead of retrieving the data from the std::variant instance, we can
just check if the variant contains that type of data.
This is essentially the same behavior, only it returns a bool indicating
whether or not the type in the variant is currently active, instead of
actually retrieving the data.
By default, MSVC doesn't use standards-compliant volatile semantics.
This makes it behave in a standards-compliant manner, making
expectations more uniform across compilers.
For similar reasons to the previous change, we move this to a single
function, so we don't need to duplicate the conversion logic in several
places within main.cpp.
Specifies the conversions explicitly to avoid implicit conversions from
const char* to QString. This makes it easier to disable implicit QString
conversions in the future.
In this case, the implicit conversion was technically wrong as well. The
implicit conversion treats the input strings as ASCII characters. This
would result in an incorrect conversion being performed in the rare case
a branch name was created with a non-ASCII Unicode character, likely
resulting in junk being displayed.
The C++ standard allows constexpr variables declared with the extern
keyword to have external linkage. Previously MSVC wasn't abiding by
this. This just makes the compiler more standards compliant during
builds.
Given we currently don't make use of anything that would break by this,
this is safe to enable.
The backend is not used until we decide to submit the testcase/telemetry, and creating it early prevents users from updating the credentials properly while the games are running.
