Proposal: a way of not bundling FMOD in XCode

[dimitre]

I've added an optional variable that can be passed so the XCode doensn't bundle FMOD
if you add in Project.xcconfig or App.xcconfig
OF_IGNORE_FMOD = 1

[dimitre]

what about the feature and the naming @ofTheo @artificiel?
it is something I would use now in projectGenerator, so less SSD wear

[ofTheo]

Yes! Great.
Can we change it to OF_NO_FMOD ?

Also would be great to enable the ofAVEngineSoundPlayer on macOS / iOS / tvOS if this is defined
On Windows @NickHardeman is working on a MediaEngine Sound Player which could also be enabled if this is defined.

[dimitre]

Yes, much better OF_NO_FMOD

[dimitre]

PR updated.

[ofTheo]

Going to do a separate PR for setting it to switch between fmod and avengine something alongs the lines of:

//FOR AV ENGINE SOUND PLAYER UNCOMMENT TWO LINES BELOW
//OF_NO_FMOD=1
//USER_PREPROCESSOR_DEFINITIONS="OF_NO_FMOD=1"
GCC_PREPROCESSOR_DEFINITIONS=$(inherited)$(USER_PREPROCESSOR_DEFINITIONS)

( shame it needs two lines but the second allows us to do #ifdef OF_NO_FMOD in the cpp )

Then in the build OF script we can pass it through to OF core

xcodebuild -project "$OF_PATH/libs/openFrameworksCompiled/project/osx/openFrameworksLib.xcodeproj" -target openFrameworks -configuration "${CONFIGURATION}"  CLANG_CXX_LANGUAGE_STANDARD=$CLANG_CXX_LANGUAGE_STANDARD MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET=$MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET GCC_PREPROCESSOR_DEFINITIONS=$USER_PREPROCESSOR_DEFINITIONS

And finally in ofConstants.h

//------------------------------------------------ soundplayer
//MAC_OS and IOS uncomment to enable AVEnginePlayer
#ifdef OF_NO_FMOD
    #undef USE_FMOD
    #if defined(TARGET_OF_IOS) || defined(TARGET_OSX)
        #define OF_SOUND_PLAYER_AV_ENGINE
    #endif
    //add other platforms here 
#endif

a bit late to the party but considering #7450 it might make sense to insert a "subsystem" layer to give more structure to the defines and have OF_SOUNDPLAYER_NO_FMOD
