So now all jni code uses a single dutil context, but also a single
mempool and jniutil instance instead of new instances of the latter two
per game and dict-iteration.
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.
Continue conversion of alerts that required blocking the JNI thread. Now
board_commitTurn() takes a second boolean indicating whether phonies
found have been approved by user. Common code informs user, and if he
approves client code calls board_commitTurn() again. In case where
turn's lost there's no call to make back, but there's the undesirable
change that if a robot moves next its move will be reported on top of
the turn-lost alert. Ideally new alerts would appear under, not on top
of, those that have not yet been dismissed.
Next step in converting util_ methods that required blocking: blank tile
assignment. Now post a query and add a method that the client code can
call when the user's decided. Include enough state (col, row, and
playerNum) so that it's probably pretty safe.
Probably breaks curses build, but for gtk and Android
turn move and trade confirmation into a two-step process, making
board_commitTurn() non-interactive when called with a second
parameter. The old blocking util methods now return void and it's up to
the client code to interact (on the main thread) then re-call
board_commitTurn() if appropriate.
First attempt to stop blocking the jni thread: instead of returning a
password from a util_ method, have it include enough state that the UI
can return, put up a dialog, and then pass that state and the password
back and have them matched up again. I think this will work for the
remaining blocking Alerts too.
