1 Version 0.8.1
2 =============
3 * A couple of minor GCC 3.4.2. issues have been fixed.
4 * Add ons are now refered to as contribs all contribs have been added
5 to the main source directory under the contrib directory. All
6 contribs now also reside in a namespace called contrib.
7 * ScrollArea::isOpaque and ScrollArea::setOpaque have been added to
8 control if a scroll area should draw its background or not.
9 * DELETE is now undefined in Key.hpp if present. It should hopefully
10 take care of some problems with windows.h defining delete which
11 sometimes breaks Key.hpp.
12 * Soname support has been fixed. The correct version number should
13 now be used in the produced binaries.
14
15 Version 0.8.0
16 =============
17 * Widget::showPart has been added to be used when a specific
18 part of a widget should be visible. An example is when a text
19 area wants a specific text part to be visible in a scroll area.
20 This function uses BasicContainer::showWidgetPart.
21 * ListBox::setWrappingKeyboardSelection and
22 ListBox::isWrappingKeyboardSelection have been renamed to
23 ListBox::setWrappingEnabled and ListBox::isWrappingEnabled.
24 * Rectangle::intersect has been renamed to Rectangle::isIntersecting.
25 * Widget::hasModalFocus and Widget::hasModalMouseInputFocus has been
26 renamed to Widget::isModalFocused and Widget::isModalMouseInputFocused.
27 * Widget::generateAction has been renamed to
28 Widget::distributeActionEvent.
29 * All the examples have been improved. Examples have been added for
30 HGE, OpenGL with SDL and for OpenGL with Allegro.
31 * Widget::drawBorder, Widget::getBorderSize and Widget::setBorderSize
32 have been renamed to Widget::drawFrame, Widget::getFrameSize and
33 Widget::setFrameSize.
34 * The alignment enum in Graphics, the orientation enum in Slider and
35 the scroll policy enum in ScrollArea are no longer anonymous enums.
36 * RadioButton::setMarked and RadioButton::isMarked have been
37 renamed to RadioButton::setSelected and RadioButton::isSelected.
38 * CheckBox::setMarked, CheckBox::isMarked and CheckBox::toggle have been
39 renamed to CheckBox::setSelected, CheckBox::isSelected and
40 CheckBox::toggleSelected.
41 * An image button widget, a button capable of displaying an image,
42 has been added.
43 * A widget listener has been added used to listen for resized events,
44 hidden events, shown events and moved events from a widget.
45 * Two new widgets have been added, a tabbed area widget and a tab widget
46 to be used with the tabbed widget.
47 * A selection listener interface has been added used to listen for
48 value change events from a list box and a drop down.
49 * A bug has been fixed where mouse entered and exited events weren't
50 honored when a widget gained or released modal focus or modal mouse input
51 focus.
52 * An id property has been added to Widget. The property can be used to uniquely
53 identify widgets inside a container. BasicContainer and Container have been
54 enhanced with the ability to find a widget given an id. An id can be
55 useful when using GUIs created from an XML file or created with a Gui
56 editor.
57 * An OpenGL image loader that uses Allegro to load images has been
58 added along with an example of how to use Guichan with AllegroGL.
59 * A bug with setting the selection colour for DropDown has been fixed.
60 Before the fix the selection coloured was ignored by the internal
61 ListBox of DropDown.
62 * Distribution of mouse entered and mouse exited events have been fixed.
63 A mouse entered event is distributed to a widget when the mouse enters
64 a widget and a mouse exited event is distributed to a widget as soon
65 as the mouse leaves the widget.
66 * OpenGL true type font has been added as an add on. The font uses the OGLFT
67 font library, http://oglft.sourceforge.net/.
68 * A bug has been fixed where a segfault could occur when a drop down widget
69 was deleted.
70 * Button now has configurable spacing.
71
72 Version 0.7.1
73 =============
74 * A problem with make dist has been fixed to include the source of the
75 addons, the HGE support and the OpenLayer support.
76
77 Version 0.7.0
78 =============
79 * Focus has been changed to be applied synchronously, hence
80 FocusHandler::applyChanges has been removed.
81 * Mouse coordinates in mouse events have been changed so they always are
82 relative to the widget receiving the event and not as before relative to
83 the source widget.
84 * The distribution of key events has changed. Key events are now distributed
85 like mouse events, events are first distributed to the source widget followed
86 by the parents of the source widget.
87 * HGE support has been added.
88 * OpenLayer support has been added.
89 * A focus listener has been added. Due to the addition of a focus listener
90 the functions Widget::focusLost and Widget::focusGained have been removed.
91 To receive widget focus events a widget should now inherit from FocusListener
92 and listen for events from itself.
93 * Many small bug fixes.
94
95 Version 0.6.1
96 =============
97 * The functions add, remove and clear have been removed from Widget.
98 They now reside protected in basic container.
99 * Inclusion of OpenGL headers has been fixed on Mac.
100
101 Version 0.6.0
102 =============
103 * A lot of function definitions from BasicContainer have been moved down to
104 Widget, but Widget doesn't provide any useful implementations of these
105 functions. Useful implementations still reside in BasicContainer.
106 For container widget implementations inheriting from BasicContainer, as before,
107 should work just fine. The reason for the move of definitions is to be able to
108 consider a widget a container for the sake of simplicity when it comes to
109 distribution of input.
110 * The functions Widget::lostFocus andWidget::gotFocus have been renamed to
111 Widget::focusLost and Widget::focusGained.
112 * DeathListener is a new interface which can be used to listen for a widget's
113 death. Because of the presence of death listeners the function
114 BasicContainer::_announceDeath has been removed.
115 * MouseListener now has the function mouseDragged which is called if a widget
116 is dragged.
117 * All distribution of input is now handled by the Gui class. Because of this
118 all functions regarding input have been removed from the classes Widget
119 and BasicContainer.
120 * All functions of KeyListener and MouseListener have been renamed. The reason
121 for this is that the functions now bear the names of the well known Java
122 listeners which will hopefully be more intuitive for most people.
123 * All input events can now be consumed making it easier to implement hot key
124 bindings.
125 * Mouse input (now called mouse events) are now distributed bottom up starting
126 from the widget directly under the mouse.
127 * Widgets can now ask for modal mouse input focus. A widget with modal mouse input
128 focus will be the only widget recieving mouse input, no matter where the mouse
129 input occurs. This can be very useful for some widgets, like a drop down which
130 acquires modal mouse input focus when folded down to be able to fold back up as
131 soon as the mouse is pressed outside of the drop down.
132 * Events are now present in Guichan. All listener classes now take event classes
133 as parameters which is a very big API change. The presence of events has propagated
134 changes to all input classes to better reflect the new usage of events.
135 * DropDown now acts on mouse wheel up and mouse wheel down when having focus.
136 * ListBox now acts on mouse wheel up and mouse wheel down when having focus.
137 * Widgets will no longer acquire focus if a mouse wheel up or a mouse wheel down
138 occurs over a widget.
139 * The header exception.hpp is now included properly in openglsdlimageloader.hpp.
140 * Many small fixes.
141
142 Version 0.5.0
143 =============
144 * Slider now acts on the mouse wheel moving the slider to the left on
145 mouse wheel down and to the right on mouse wheen up.
146 * ListBox now has the ability to wrap keyboard selection. Wrapping means
147 that if the key up is pressed and the first item is selected, then
148 the last item will get selected. If the key down is pressed and the last
149 item is selected, then the first item will get selected.
150 * Redesign of the Image class. Image now has different subclasses for
151 different Graphics objects. The static method load in the Image class
152 loads the appropiate type of image if an ImageLoader is set.
153 * The function action in ActionListener now takes a pointer to the
154 Widget who called the function, it makes handling of action events,
155 hopefully, cleaner.
156 * ScrollArea now scrolls if the open space around the markers is clicked.
157 * ScrollArea now has functions to set the amount to scroll when ScrollArea's
158 buttons are pushed, each button can have it's own amount.
159 * Changed the function name of Widget::hasFocus and FocusHandler::hasFocus
160 to isFocused.
161 * Moved a lot of common container functionality into BasicContainer.
162 This made the code and API a lot cleaner. Affected classes are:
163 BasicContainer - now holds a lot of common functionality for containers.
164 Container - implementation is now a lot smaller.
165 Window - window now inherits from Container and can have several child
166 widgets.
167 ScrollArea - smaller, nicer code.
168 TextBox & ListBox - Takes advantage of the new Container API to get rid
169 of a dynamic cast.
170 * Added drawBackground to ScrollArea to simplify overloading.
171 * Added functions for global KeyListeners in Gui. Global KeyListeners
172 can be just about any object inheriting from KeyListener.
173 * Fixed an offset by one error in AllegroGraphics::_beginDraw.
174 The initial clip area is now correct.
175 * Added alpha blending with SDL for 16bpp and 24 bpp mode.
176
177 Version 0.4.0
178 =============
179 * The GCN_EXCEPTION macro is now capable of determine the function in
180 which the exception was thrown. Also, you can get the function name
181 from the Exception class.
182 * Added a fix to make both versions of drawImage in
183 AllegroGraphics, OpenGLGraphics and SDLGraphics visible
184 and usable.
185 * Optimized fillRect in SDLGraphics slightly when using alpha
186 blending. However, SDLGraphics still needs a lot of optimizing
187 in other parts.
188 * Removed the filename from the Image class, as it wasn't really
189 used for anything.
190 * Updated ImageFont with support for font images with several rows
191 of glyphs.
192 * Added modal focus to widgets. Widgets can now request modal focus
193 stealing all input from other widgets. Can be useful when making
194 dialog windows.
195 * Many small fixes.
196
197 Version 0.3.0
198 =============
199 * Every Guichan library now contains a C function which can be
200 used with autotools check, for instance the Guichan SDL library
201 contains the function gcnSDL wich can be used when struggling
202 with autoconf. Other functions are gcnAllegro in Guichan Allegro,
203 gcnOpenGL in Guichan OpenGL and gcnGuichanVersion in the Guichan
204 core.
205 * Slider now stores only the current selected value and calculates
206 everything from that value. It should take care of some resizing
207 problems. Also, slider has now an orientation, which means you can
208 create a slider which has a vertical or horizontal orientation.
209 The previous slider had only a horizontal orientation.
210 * Fixed alpha problem with images loaded and displayed with SDL.
211 * Added a new widget, the window widget.
212 * SDL.h is now included the proper way meaning you can install
213 SDL anywhere and Guichan will include the right headers as long
214 as sdl-config knows where the headers are.
215 * Added ability to disable widgets.
216 * Changed slightly how focus works. Focus is now applied after the
217 input is processed. This resolved some problems when widgets
218 fight over focus.
219 * Changed the behaviour of the mouse handling. Widgets will get
220 mouse input if the mouse is dragged outside of the widget,
221 even if they don't have focus.
222 * Many small fixes.
223
224 Version 0.2.0
225 =============
226 * Added isPressed() method to the Button.
227 * Doubleclicking now works with SDL
228 * Added --enable-force argument for Allegro, SDL, SDL Image and OpenGL
229 to the configure script which forces Guichan to compile with the
230 forced support.
231 * Updated platform.hpp to be able to handle compilation with MinGW.
232 * Splited DECLSPEC define into GCN_CORE_DECLSPEC and
233 GCN_EXTENSION_DECLSPEC.
234 * Fixed bugs in ScrollArea and DropDown involving focus and mouse input,
235 * Changed the look when CheckBox is marked.
236 * Changed the look when CheckBox and RadioButton are focused.
237 They now draw a rectangle around their captions (common behaivour in Guis).
238 * Removed unaccesary logic functions (which didn't do anything) in
239 widget RadioButton and CheckBox.
240 * Added a new widget called Slider, and it is a... slider!
241 * Removed getWidth for glyphs in Font.
242 * Removed function drawGlyph in Font and in addon SDLTrueTypeFont.
243 Added drawGlyph function in ImageFont and DefaultFont.
244 drawGlyph in Font is easy to missunderstand and could lead to
245 strange implementations of Font.
246 * Added getCurrentClipArea function in Graphics.
247 * All functions in container are now virtual (thanks to Garo pointing this out).
248 * Added function setSize in Widget.
249 * Added an "addons" directory in the distrobution. It will contain
250 usefull classes with Guichan that are not compiled into the library.
251 They are not compiled because they need dependencies other then
252 Guichans or are to specific. For now, "addons" only contain one
253 class, SDLTrueTypeFont giving True Type Font abilities to Guichan
254 through the SDL_ttf library and hence will only work with SDLGraphics.
255 SDLTrueTypeFont was contributed by Walluce Pinkham (and edited by us).
256 Thank you Walluce!
257 * Added getColor function in Graphics. Implemented in SDLGraphics,
258 AllegroGraphics and OpenGLGraphics.
259 * Fixed a problem with the DropDown widget. When the widget was focused
260 with a mouse press, you couldn't select elements with up and down keys.
261 * Merged drawText, drawTextCenter and drawTextRight into one function
262 drawText which takes an alignment parameter (thanks Ted!).
263 Widgets taking advantage of this are Button and Label.
264 * As a result of the added border support, almost every widget have
265 been changed for the better, e.g removal of offsets.
266 * Added support for borders. This is a major API change introducing
267 some new functions to Widget.
268 * Lots of small bugfixes
269
270 Version 0.1.0
271 =============
272 * Guichan_allegro MSVC 6 compatibility fix.
273 * TextBox doesn't draw its caret if its not editable.
274 * Better exception with more information in ImageFont,
275 added row spacing and glyph spacing functions.
276 * Fixed problem in ImageFont when loading a corrupt file.
277 It will now throw an exception (thanks Terin!).
278 * Implemented _getRawData() in AllegroImageLoader.
279 * Fixed Image. It is now overloadable.
280 * DropDown sets the colors for its internal widgets if they are
281 not custom widgets (not given to the DropDown by the user).
282 * Now all default widgets respect the alpha channel in the colors.
283 * Non focusable widgets will now not recieve key input ever.
284 In previous version, focused widgets would still remain focused
285 after setting them to not be focusable.
286 * Moved tab handling from Gui to the FocusHandler.
287 * Splitted setTabable to setTabInEnabled and setTabOutEnabled.
288 Widgets can now have different behaviours on tab in and tab out.
289 The old setTabable is equivalent to setTabInEnabled.
290 * isVisisble now checks if parent is visible
291 * Added alpha channel support in AllegroGraphics for
292 drawing primitives
293 * Added experimental alpha channel support in SDLGraphics
294 for 32 bpp
295 * Added full alpha channel support in OpenGLGraphics
296 * Fixed OpenGL graphics to disable GL_LIGHTING before draw
297 * Fixed container problem. Nonvisible widgets no longer
298 recieves mouse input.
299 * Fixed mouse out problem with SDLInput
300 * Fixed alpha problem with the SDLImageLoader
301
302 Version 0.0.1
303 =============
304 * Initial release
