The three new compare operators "eq", "gt" and "lt" are casting the values to int.
Sort supports:
- uri: sort by uri
- value: sort by value as string
- value_int: casts value to int
Closes#1894
Most of the Android specific meson code has been removed and replaced with
the grade build system.
The new meson build scripts build and move the libmpd.so binaries into the correct
location that gradle expects. After than gradle handles building the rest of the Android app.
Icons and banners have been updated for the modern app packaging expectations.
For reference here was the figma template Google provides that I used to back the png versions
for older versions of Android <https://www.figma.com/community/file/1283953738855070149>
Add an `always_off` option to outputs that causes them to never start
playback even if they're enabled.
This allows placeholder `null` outputs to be defined for the purpose
of having an external client react to the enabled state without the
side effects of real outputs. Like an external mixer, the client can
perform some action when an output is enabled.
Normally `null` outputs can be used for playback so it's possible for
MPD to continue playback silently if a problem occurs with all the real
outputs (or there are none enabled).
Boost makes building a piece of software much more difficult than
necessary. It's a huge library, and just uncompressing it takes a
considerable amount of time. MPD only used a tiny fraction of it, yet
its header bloat made the MPD build very slow. Locating Boost was
difficult due to its arcane build system and its resistance to use
pkg-config; it's always a special case. MPD could never use features
of newer Boost versions because Linux distributions always shipped old
Boost versions. Boost made everything complicated and slow.
So, finally, after getting rid of GLib (commit ccdb94b06c), switching
to C++ and using Boost (commit 0801b3f495), we've finally get rid of
it 8 years later.
Unfortunately, I had to reimplement parts of it along the way
(e.g. IntrusiveList). Kind of NIH, but on the other hand, compiling
MPD has become much easier for users.
