Re-assigning a move is not limited anymore to the last turn (only to the
current turn, and even that limitation could be removed without too much
work).
It is mostly working, but many things are still missing.
In particular:
- ability to enter (or change) moves for a past turn
- ability to change the rack (manually, or randomly)
- ability to add/remove players during the game
- support for solos, warnings, penalties
- support for table number
- more ergonomic interface
- non regression tests
- ... and probably bugs to fix
Internally, commands are now stored a bit differently: some commands
which were at the end of a turn (like the players rack in duplicate
mode) are now at the beginning. But from a user point of view, there is
no visible difference, except some details in training mode (and the new
behaviour is arguably better :)).
Only (known) problem: after loading a game saved before this commit,
navigating in the game history may be less nice (in particular, racks
may not be fully restored).
Knowing the actual player is not always possible, since potentially none
of the players has found the played move (for example in arbitration
mode). This ID is now only used to retrieve the rack from which the move
was formed, so any player ID will do.
The non-regression tests have been adapted accordingly.
Status:
It works well, but there are still a few details to improve/fix
More details about the changes:
- New dependency on Arabica and Libxml2 to parse the XML
- Loading the old format is still supported for this release, but won't be supported anymore in the next one
- Games are now only saved in the new format
- In training mode, the player is now created externally, like in the other modes
- Avoid using GameIO (the one from game/) whenever possible
- Do not use a FILE* argument anymore when loading a game
- Throw and catch exceptions correctly when a game cannot be loaded or saved
- The non-regression tests now use a new method to print the game history
- Improved the error message when the dictionary cannot be loaded at startup
- Updated the french translation
- Made some Game fields private
- Added more constness
- Removed logiv from the History class
- Used BOOST_FOREACH to simplify loops
- Remove useless annotations and doxygen blocks
- Added some constness
- Marked Training::setRack() as deprecated
- Improved compilation order in game/
- 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
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)
