As long as it's not too long for the space! But the curses draw function
that knows how to measure the length-in-bytes of a multi-byte string
doesn't seem to be available to me. So pass -1 as the length and it'll
draw correctly out to the NULL terminator.
Lots of changes adding a games-list view to the app from which you
create new games, open and delete existing ones, etc. There's still
plenty that's unimplemented, but it's already more useful for testing
and development. Which is the point.
This fixes on gtk version being able to invite to an SMS game using
relayID. I don't know why not transmitting port is ok; maybe android
doesn't use the port or gets it some other way, e.g. it's hard-coded for
each variant.
I've long wanted common code and state that outlast a single game. The
smsproto stuff is a step in that direction, but this file will be a
place for anything new. Starting, perhaps, with a mapping of deviceID ->
addressInfo (e.g. BT name or SMS number of opponent device) that will
let me stop duplicating that stuff in every game's comms state. We'll
see. It's guarded by a compile-time flag so I can play with in on the
Linux version until ready.
Add a third processor type to the .so, and fix first compile-time
warnings and then a few dumb bugs based on assumptions about ptr sizes.
Works to play networked games and browse wordlists, but is not
extensively tested and needs to be before release.
Should not show the new you-can-lookup-uncommitted-words hint for
already-played words, so needed to be able to tell difference between
the two. Now you can -- and on the gtk side I draw them differently
because I can.
Seeing the occasional crash and trying to plug leaks that might be
contributing. I think I fixed the Gameptr.finalize() assertions I've
been seeing forever but the thread match assertion remains. Logs will
help catch that.
It's useful when testing to have the remote device play without human
interaction. So add an option, and UI to trigger it, for the players
created remotely in response to an invitation to be robots. There are
guards in place to catch the feature slipping into a release build.
My VSIZE is no longer legal, and apparently there's no workaround (no
way to safely figure the length of an array whose size is known at
compile time.) To avoid the risk of duplicating little constants, added
macros that define length in a way a new VSIZE can pick it up. Couldn't
make that work for struct field arrays, however, so there I'm using
constants.
I'm seeing a rare case where a game connectes to relay specifying a room
and somehow gets both slots, having provided different gameSeeds the two
times. This means an opponent won't connect, the room being full in that
game. I can't reproduce, so am logging seed changes better and switching
linux client to leave seed generation to comms as Android does.
Put up an error message if too many tiles selected for trade
(a condition that couldn't exist when the pool was guaranteed to
have at least 7 in it.) (It's a hack: there's not even an enum
giving Spanish's code, and the lang_locale stuff in info.txt isn't
making it into the .xwd format.)
Handles case where the app receives only a subset of the SMS messages
into which a larger game-level message has been broken. Now when it
restarts and the remaining parts come in the whole can be reassembled.
And use in linux client. Goal here is to reproduce then improve the
Android SMS pre- and post-processing stuff with a common/ implementation
that can be tested on linux and used wherever.
My linux sms hack used inotify and didn't check for messages that were
there when the app launched. Replace inotify with a simple glib periodic
timer. A bit of latency mimics SMS better anyway. Update test script to
support SMS, and add params to and otherwise fix linux client so
everything works.
Trying to separate what's game-specific from what can be app/device
specific (i.e. with a long lifespan, and available when a game isn't
open.)
Android will be broken after this commit and fixed after the next
Once the pool count drops to 0, start showing the number of tiles left
in the user's tray. This prevents there being a long time when nothing
seems to be changing *and* the script from exiting early because it
thinks all games are hung.
translate the most-used features of my too-big-for-bash script into python3,
which is clearly much better suited. Tried to keep the structure and variable
names intact so that diff has a chance of showing something, but when a class
replaces a bunch of arrays that were being kept in sync there's only so much
you can to. Currently doesn't support stuff like app upgrades and switching
from tcp to udp, but those should be relatively easy to bring over from the
.sh when/if I need them.

It breaks rematch that "dict" is being passed to the Android client from
the linux side, and this is easier than figuring out how and when to
dereference the link.
Ideally the comms module wouldn't go through its connecting routine in
order to join a game. To that end I added a join() method to relay.py
and code to call it. Joins happen (pairing games, starting new ones,
etc.), but after that communication doesn't. First part of fixing that
would be to make cookieID persistent and transmit it back with the rest
of what join sends (since it's used by all the messages currently sent
in a connected state), but I suspect there's more to be done, and even
that requires a fair number of changes on the relay side. So all that's
wrapped in #ifdef RELAY_VIA_HTTP (and turned off.)
With the new http stuff, at least for now, it takes longer to get things
communicated and so killing games after 2 seconds of runtime meant no
moves ever got made. Making it configurable, and passing 10 (seconds)
means nearly all games in a large test run complete reasonably quickly.
ACK doesn't need to wait 2 seconds for a reply, and when it does so the
next send waits too. Eventually we'll want to combine messages already
in the queue into a single send. For now, this makes things better.
using g_add_idle() for each piece of data received on the (background)
curl-query thread wasn't working. They were getting starved, and I think
some were considered duplicates and never scheduled. So add a single
timer proc called every 50 ms and a queue that it checks and into which
the network thread can put stuff.
So far uses curl and json-c to send b64-encoded data to new script
which is able to echo the data. Next that script will need to open a
UDP socket to the relay and return results that appear before timeout.
Make face-up tile picker util method return void and add mechanism for
passing in selected tiles asynchronously, as has been done recently with
the rest of the once-blocking util callbacks. Works perfectly in the gtk
case. Likely crashes in curses (if picking face-up option is on.) In
java all the callbacks are there but rather than put up a UI we pretend
the user says "pick 'em for me" each time. Putting up a UI is next.
