to enable it for a game yet). In common code, break pick tile utils
method in two, one for blank and the other for tray tiles. In java,
implement dialog for picking the tiles. Works, though is a bit clumsy
to have the dialog come and go after every pick. Better would be a
dialog that stays up and accumulates picks -- but it'd have to know to
reduce the set of tile choices as letters are chosen. This'll do for
now.
played that include that tile and pass to new util_cellSquareHeld()
method. In java implementation of that method, use existing lookup
activity code to display list of words. Enabled on the C side by a
compile-time flag in case it has problems. Right now the time spent
saving a game before launching the lookup activity, and reloading it
after, is pretty apparent, but that's in emulator which is slow.
util_userQuery(QUERY_ROBOT_MOVE) with new util_informMove(), into
which the number of words formed and the words themselves are passed.
The process of consing up the score explanation was already passing
over the model, so storing the words is very little effort, and will
save a call back into the model where the user actually wants to do
the lookup.
into the java world by making it a util_ctxt function. Do same on
linux to test. We'll see how it is -- and can back this commit out if
there's no improvement.
meaning it'll work on any tranport but relay doesn't know about it.
(If relay knew about it I could send a "shutting down for a minute"
message to every connected device, which would be cool. But this is
easier.) Written, BTW, enroute from Seattle with help from beer from
Chris in first class. :-)
game works to completion with both signing up as guests (no -s) with
one local and one remote player (identical commandlines.) Not yet
tested: if any signs up as a host, reconnecting rather than
connecting, etc. This is just a snapshot.
Includes ability to scroll horizontally by dragging. Board init API
changes to specify board width and max height instead of cell
dimensions, so now board owns task of picking cell size. If the
number of cells does not evenly divide into a board dimension then the
extra pixels are distributed among some columns/rows in a way that
still allows bitblit-based scroll implementations (though horizontal
scrolling at this point always does an invalAll()). Not yet tested
with overlapping tray. And still need to allow rows to be taller than
cols are wide if platform code has given the space. Stream format
changes with this checkin.
areas, pass into draw whether to show it highlighted, and fire a util
method when it's clicked on. Intent is that platforms show the
remaining tiles dialog.
util_altKeyDown to allow user to choose between scrolling board and
dragging the hint rect when both are possible. add adjustYOffset;
make it and board_setYOffset more tolerant of out-of-bounds inputs and
use that to simplify calling code.
and use it to send and check for heartbeats over any transport.
Caller must supply a reset proc which is called when heartbeat hasn't
been received in too long. No changes required to comms protocol, but
that means the heartbeat interval is fixed at compile time: can't be
negotiated, and the two ends had better agree. Currently tested with
linux host and PalmOS guest, where only the first heartbeat failure is
recovered from. So there's some debugging to be done still.
not dived and tray or scoreboard focussed. This lets platform decide
to display top-level focus via mods to all elements. Second, when
moving focus to top level from dived, claim not to have handled the
key event (but return true if needs redraw). This allows platform to
handle shifting focus without requiring callback (which removed.)
the next object using a callback to the platform to determine what, if
any, object is next. Adjust curses platform to cooperate. Works
well. Palm is next.
A full robot vs. robot game now works between two Treos. Added UI to
choose BT as transport mechanism, and added new send proc to establish
socket connection between host and guest. Works only for two devices:
no piconet yet. No error recovery, ability to quit game in middle,
start new game, etc.
util_trayHiddenChange, which means an API change. In board, calculate
bottom of board based on bottom of tray when tray is hidden, and round
so that it's an exact multiple of cell height. In wince, take
advantage of the new parameter to fix the scrollbar so that very
constrained boards can be scrolled even when the tray is hidden.
