The arbitrator has to specify them manually. Otherwise, we cannot know
when a turn is complete and thus we cannot determine if solos can/should
be applied.
But we don't need to sort them all the time, and in general we don't even need to keep all the rounds.
This commit greatly improves the search performance by filtering the results in 3 different ways, depending on the context:
- A limit to the number of results can be given (useful for the training mode). The kept results are the best ones, not the first ones found by the search.
- When only the best round is needed (when the AI is playing with level 100, or when preparing the rack for an explosive game), we don't need to keep rounds with a lower score
- When the AI has a level lower than 100, it is still possible to skip many rounds
The search limit in training mode is configurable (defaulting to 100) and can be deactivated.
- New (optional) dependency on the libconfig library, to save/load configuration files.
- On Unix, the location of the configuration file respects the XDG Base Directory Specification.
- The contrib system automatically fetches and builds libconfig for Windows cross-compilation
- Fixed make distcheck
- Be more explicit if the dictionary name is missing
- Changed the colour of the joker on the board, instead of displaying it in lower case
- Incorrect words are now refused by default
- Changed the way words are input: the case is no longer relevant,
and the coordinates are in a separate control
- Explain the problem when a word is refused
- Updated the French translation
- Initialize the random numbers generator, and print the seed value
- Handle properly Qt builds without STL support
- Save the position of the main window
- Got rid of the useless toolbar
- Better size of the preferences dialog
- Hopefully fixed translation issues on Windows
- The Settings class throws an exception when asked for a non-existing setting
There are too many change to list properly, here is an overview of the main changes:
- the dictionary is now in C++
- the dictionary has a new format, where it is possible to specify the letters,
their points, their frequency, ... It is backwards compatible.
- Eliot now supports non-ASCII characters everywhere
- i18n of the compdic, listdic, regexpmain binaries
- i18n of the wxWidgets interface (now in english by default)
