blender_add_lib now takes a separate include argument to suppress warnings in system includes (mostly ffmpeg & python).
also only build wm_apple.c on apple+carbon configuration.

##############
This patch fix anti-aliasing (multisampling) implementation for win32 platform. It also gives opportunity to embed blenderplayer inside parent window.
Usage:
blenderplayer.exe -i 123456 -m 16 file.blend
where:
123456 - parent window handler (integer, default: 0)
16 - multisample level (integer, default: 0, max: 16. Put there maximum level you want. If not supported, player will automatically try 15,14,13,...,3,2,1)
##############
This patch was originally created as part of the Burster (aka webplugin) project but benefit any one embedding the bge in a custom OpenGL context. By the way, to embed the BGE in a .Net application is really straightforward now =)
The Multisampling work for blenderplayer as a whole.
Missing functionalities:
- to expose the multisampling to the ui (so far it only works in console)
- window focus and keyboard messages for embedded blenderplayer (supported in their previous patch for 2.49, yet to be ported over)
- handle resizing (to be investigated, indeed the changes in getState() in GHOST_WindowWin32.cpp are going to get in the way of that if I'm not mistaken. To be addressed together.
Doxygen documentation to be added whenever I sort out how to do so. Sorry Nathan too many stuff to deal with at the same time. The sooner this patch gets in, the sooner the missing functionalities can be patched on top of that.
Support for physics is done by skiping the modifiers that
don't support mapping to original mesh. This mapping is
required to report the hit polygon to the application
by the rayCast() function.
Support for graphics is done by using the same render
function that blender uses for the 3D view. This guantees
equal result.
Limitation: there is still a known bug if all these conditions are met:
- Display list enabled
- Old tex face with a several textures mapped to the same material
- no armature or shape keys
- active modifiers
In this case, only a part of the mesh will be rendered
with the wrong texture. To avoid this bug, use the GLSL
materials or make sure to have 1 material=1 texture in
your old tex face objects.
globbing vs explicit is discussed here.

Practical implications are:
- developers need to keep CMakeLists.txt files up to date.
- Users wont get strange linking errors if they build after a file is added, since CMake detects CMakeLists.txt is modified and automatically reconfigure.
- ignore MSVC warnings when FREE_WINDOWS is defined to quiet warnings.
- the CMake flags were not being set correctly making blender have weirdo colors (no -funsigned-char).
The problem was: the Blender default camera has DOF distance as 0.0. Since we are using this as Focal Length for the stereo calculation we had terrible stereo by default.
Fix: whenever DOF == 0.0 we use focal length as eye separation * 30.0 (known to be a reasonable value)
Now the default eye separation value is 0.10 (reasonable for games with 1 meter == 1 B.U.
The focallength used is the camera focal length (DOF settings). It allow you to even use different focal lengths for different scenes (good for UI)
In order to change it you can change the camera focal length or use Rasterizer.setFocalLength.
If you use the Rasterizer method it will use this value for all the cameras.
ToDo:
- Blenderplayer settings
- Update wiki documentation (any volunteer)?
* Note to stereo fans:
I don't have a real stereo environment to test it (other than cheap cyan-red glasses). If you can give it a try in a more robust system and report bugs or problems with BGE current system please let me know. I would be glad to help to make it work 100% by the time Blender 2.5 is out.
For the record, BGE is using the method known as 'parallel axis asymmetric frustum perspective projection'. This method is well documented here:

GLEW update to version 1.5.1 [11-03-08]
this opens room for Geometry Shader support.
* - Brecht, Campbell told me you did some local changes in order to make it right in Linux. I get to you in order to know what those changes are (or feel free to commit them directly)
* bring back 'player' libtype, after investigation with ideasman.
scons/mingw works nicely, for some reason msvc fails to link still, will look further into it.
* further cleaning of 'player' stuff. Now only 3 libs are remaining, of which ideally the stubs lib will be fixed at some point, fading away into the dark history of not-so-nice code. The current blenderplayer part is still a little bit hackish, I'll see if I can find a better alternative, for now it works good enough.
* first working changes to get blenderplayer linking
* blenderplayer/ moved into source/ (CMakeLists.txt changed for that too)
* added externs for bprogname to gp_ghost, so that it links properly
* Add BGE_CXXFLAGS so we can get rid of hard-coded BGE compiler settings. This was only done for windows, but now linuxers and osxers should be able to set BGE-specific optimisation too. See the windows default configs for example.
Logic Panel:
- world settings (moved from world)
... that includes physic engine selection + gravity
- game player (from gamesettings, it wasn't wrapped)
- stereo/dome (from gamesettings, it wasn't wrapped)
... separated stereom into stereoflag and stereomode
- properties
... (didn't touch it)
Buttons Game Panel:
(wip panel)
- Physics (moved from Logic Panel)
... it will be a datablock in the future (right Campbell ?)
- Material Physics (not currently implemented)
... a datablock link to the materials of an object + the dynamic physic variables
* NOTE:
in readfile.c::do_version I couldn't do if(scene->world). There is something wrong with scenes with an unlinked world. So so far we are ignoring the old values....
* ensure all SConscripts are ready for win64-vc (where necessary).
* ensure we have proper _DEBUG flag for Python when we're doing a debug build.
* some cleaning up of linking etc.
* ensure /EHsc is there for game engine modules.

Notes:
* Game and sequencer RNA, and sequencer header are now out of date
a bit after changes in trunk.
* I didn't know how to port these bugfixes, most likely they are
not needed anymore.
* Fix "duplicate strip" always increase the user count for ipo.
* IPO pinning on sequencer strips was lost during Undo.

Fixed two bugs from original patch:
- deleting a text will clear the warp field from Game framing settings
- removed spurious black dots along the edge of the cube map in the gameplayer
Known limitation:
- resizing of the screen doesn't work in the gameplayer
Known bugs:
- Texture with reflexion are not rendered correctly
- Spurious problems with light
