base64-encoded data as the messages. Make necessary changes to comms.
This is the foundation for doing real SMS transport on handhelds.
Currently a full robot game works for two gtk clients provided the
server is launched first.
postEmptyEvent; pass transport type with incoming packets so they can
be rejected if not on expected channel (to stop IR, which is always
on, from injecting into a BT game); do BT work and fire timers even
when menu is down; don't let robot run until after board is drawn for
the first time; on startup, don't let robot run until after board is
drawn once. Up version to b3.
while heartbeat feature was enabled. Fixed the problem on Linux, but experience on Treo650
is still better without HB feature, so turning it off on Palm. This seems ready for beta,
but will test a bit more.
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.
that a new game's begun without dropping the connection. On Palm,
remove connection-drop on new game. With this change starting a new
game takes imperciptible time, down from 30 seconds.
running the old game: the host may reply, but guest must not take that
as evidence of a connection having been established: don't remove sent
messages (this isn't an ACK), and don't assert later on.
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.
deal with the output by removing params where possible and elsewhere
by adding XP_UNUSED macro wrapping __attribute__((unused)). There
should be NO change in function in spite of the large number of files.
send player counts, local and expected. Based on these the relay
accepts connections, declares the game full and ready for message
forwarding, and decides whether to accept a reconnect.
scheme where cookie is used only to connect, and is replaced for
reconnects by a relay-generated name that's supposed to be unique
across all games on all relays; let relay assign non-servers' hostIDs
rather than doing 'em randomly; use hostIDs for comms-level protocol's
channelNo where possible to avoid tripping over duplicate messages
