This is useful in some debugging scenarios. System.err is separately buffered, so when e.g. debugging test cases it doesn't interleave correctly with the C++ stdout/stderr logging. Even using flush() doesn't seem to help, I think because Gradle does its own buffering.
These enable more consistent use of synchronization across the
native libraries. Users can create Event and Semaphore primitives, but
in addition, libraries can set up any handle as an Event-type signal.
This makes code easier to read and more consistent between C++ and Java.
Also update clang-format settings to always add a line break (even if no braces are used).
The wpimath library is a new library designed to separate the reusable math functionality
from the common utility library (wpiutil) and the hardware-dependent library (wpilibc/j).
Package names / include file names were NOT changed to minimize breakage. In a future year
it would be good to revamp these for a more uniform user experience and to reduce the risk
of accidental naming conflicts.
While theoretically all of this functionality could be placed into wpiutil, several pieces
of this library (e.g. DARE) are very time-consuming to compile, so it's nice to avoid this
expense for users who only want cscore or ntcore. It also allows for easy future separation
of build tasks vs number of workers on memory-constrained machines.
This moves the following functionality from wpiutil into wpimath:
- Eigen
- ejml
- Drake
- DARE
- wpiutil.math package (Matrix etc)
- units
And the following functionality from wpilibc/j into wpimath:
- Geometry
- Kinematics
- Spline
- Trajectory
- LinearFilter
- MedianFilter
- Feed-forward controllers
Drake is a collection of tools for analyzing robot dynamics and building control systems.

This class provides an easy way to forward local ports to another host/port.
This is primarily useful to provide a way to access Ethernet-connected devices
from a computer tethered to the RoboRIO USB port.
The most natural spot to put the shared implementation of this class was into
wpiutil, so a wpiutilJNI library has been added.
