Version 0.7.0
============= * The distribution of key events has changed. Key events are now distributed like mouse events, events are first distributed to the source widget followed by the parents of the source widget. * HGE support has been added. * OpenLayer support has been added. * A focus listener has been added. Due to the addition of a focus listener the functions Widget::focusLost and Widget::focusGained have been removed. To receive widget focus events a widget should now inherit from FocusListener and listen for events from itself. * Many small bug fixes. Version 0.6.1 ============= * The functions add, remove and clear have been removed from Widget. They now reside protected in basic container. * Inclusion of OpenGL headers has been fixed on Mac. Version 0.6.0 ============= * A lot of function definitions from BasicContainer have been moved down to Widget, but Widget doesn't provide any useful implementations of these functions. Useful implementations still reside in BasicContainer. For container widget implementations inheriting from BasicContainer, as before, should work just fine. The reason for the move of definitions is to be able to consider a widget a container for the sake of simplicity when it comes to distribution of input. * The functions Widget::lostFocus andWidget::gotFocus have been renamed to Widget::focusLost and Widget::focusGained. * DeathListener is a new interface which can be used to listen for a widget's death. Because of the presence of death listeners the function BasicContainer::_announceDeath has been removed. * MouseListener now has the function mouseDragged which is called if a widget is dragged. * All distribution of input is now handled by the Gui class. Because of this all functions regarding input have been removed from the classes Widget and BasicContainer. * All functions of KeyListener and MouseListener have been renamed. The reason for this is that the functions now bear the names of the well known Java listeners which will hopefully be more intuitive for most people. * All input events can now be consumed making it easier to implement hot key bindings. * Mouse input (now called mouse events) are now distributed bottom up starting from the widget directly under the mouse. * Widgets can now ask for modal mouse input focus. A widget with modal mouse input focus will be the only widget recieving mouse input, no matter where the mouse input occurs. This can be very useful for some widgets, like a drop down which acquires modal mouse input focus when folded down to be able to fold back up as soon as the mouse is pressed outside of the drop down. * Events are now present in Guichan. All listener classes now take event classes as parameters which is a very big API change. The presence of events has propagated changes to all input classes to better reflect the new usage of events. * DropDown now acts on mouse wheel up and mouse wheel down when having focus. * ListBox now acts on mouse wheel up and mouse wheel down when having focus. * Widgets will no longer acquire focus if a mouse wheel up or a mouse wheel down occurs over a widget. * The header exception.hpp is now included properly in openglsdlimageloader.hpp. * Many small fixes. Version 0.5.0 ============= * Slider now acts on the mouse wheel moving the slider to the left on mouse wheel down and to the right on mouse wheen up. * ListBox now has the ability to wrap keyboard selection. Wrapping means that if the key up is pressed and the first item is selected, then the last item will get selected. If the key down is pressed and the last item is selected, then the first item will get selected. * Redesign of the Image class. Image now has different subclasses for different Graphics objects. The static method load in the Image class loads the appropiate type of image if an ImageLoader is set. * The function action in ActionListener now takes a pointer to the Widget who called the function, it makes handling of action events, hopefully, cleaner. * ScrollArea now scrolls if the open space around the markers is clicked. * ScrollArea now has functions to set the amount to scroll when ScrollArea's buttons are pushed, each button can have it's own amount. * Changed the function name of Widget::hasFocus and FocusHandler::hasFocus to isFocused. * Moved a lot of common container functionality into BasicContainer. This made the code and API a lot cleaner. Affected classes are: BasicContainer - now holds a lot of common functionality for containers. Container - implementation is now a lot smaller. Window - window now inherits from Container and can have several child widgets. ScrollArea - smaller, nicer code. TextBox & ListBox - Takes advantage of the new Container API to get rid of a dynamic cast. * Added drawBackground to ScrollArea to simplify overloading. * Added functions for global KeyListeners in Gui. Global KeyListeners can be just about any object inheriting from KeyListener. * Fixed an offset by one error in AllegroGraphics::_beginDraw. The initial clip area is now correct. * Added alpha blending with SDL for 16bpp and 24 bpp mode. Version 0.4.0 ============= * The GCN_EXCEPTION macro is now capable of determine the function in which the exception was thrown. Also, you can get the function name from the Exception class. * Added a fix to make both versions of drawImage in AllegroGraphics, OpenGLGraphics and SDLGraphics visible and usable. * Optimized fillRect in SDLGraphics slightly when using alpha blending. However, SDLGraphics still needs a lot of optimizing in other parts. * Removed the filename from the Image class, as it wasn't really used for anything. * Updated ImageFont with support for font images with several rows of glyphs. * Added modal focus to widgets. Widgets can now request modal focus stealing all input from other widgets. Can be useful when making dialog windows. * Many small fixes. Version 0.3.0 ============= * Every Guichan library now contains a C function which can be used with autotools check, for instance the Guichan SDL library contains the function gcnSDL wich can be used when struggling with autoconf. Other functions are gcnAllegro in Guichan Allegro, gcnOpenGL in Guichan OpenGL and gcnGuichanVersion in the Guichan core. * Slider now stores only the current selected value and calculates everything from that value. It should take care of some resizing problems. Also, slider has now an orientation, which means you can create a slider which has a vertical or horizontal orientation. The previous slider had only a horizontal orientation. * Fixed alpha problem with images loaded and displayed with SDL. * Added a new widget, the window widget. * SDL.h is now included the proper way meaning you can install SDL anywhere and Guichan will include the right headers as long as sdl-config knows where the headers are. * Added ability to disable widgets. * Changed slightly how focus works. Focus is now applied after the input is processed. This resolved some problems when widgets fight over focus. * Changed the behaviour of the mouse handling. Widgets will get mouse input if the mouse is dragged outside of the widget, even if they don't have focus. * Many small fixes. Version 0.2.0 ============= * Added isPressed() method to the Button. * Doubleclicking now works with SDL * Added --enable-force argument for Allegro, SDL, SDL Image and OpenGL to the configure script which forces Guichan to compile with the forced support. * Updated platform.hpp to be able to handle compilation with MinGW. * Splited DECLSPEC define into GCN_CORE_DECLSPEC and GCN_EXTENSION_DECLSPEC. * Fixed bugs in ScrollArea and DropDown involving focus and mouse input, * Changed the look when CheckBox is marked. * Changed the look when CheckBox and RadioButton are focused. They now draw a rectangle around their captions (common behaivour in Guis). * Removed unaccesary logic functions (which didn't do anything) in widget RadioButton and CheckBox. * Added a new widget called Slider, and it is a... slider! * Removed getWidth for glyphs in Font. * Removed function drawGlyph in Font and in addon SDLTrueTypeFont. Added drawGlyph function in ImageFont and DefaultFont. drawGlyph in Font is easy to missunderstand and could lead to strange implementations of Font. * Added getCurrentClipArea function in Graphics. * All functions in container are now virtual (thanks to Garo pointing this out). * Added function setSize in Widget. * Added an "addons" directory in the distrobution. It will contain usefull classes with Guichan that are not compiled into the library. They are not compiled because they need dependencies other then Guichans or are to specific. For now, "addons" only contain one class, SDLTrueTypeFont giving True Type Font abilities to Guichan through the SDL_ttf library and hence will only work with SDLGraphics. SDLTrueTypeFont was contributed by Walluce Pinkham (and edited by us). Thank you Walluce! * Added getColor function in Graphics. Implemented in SDLGraphics, AllegroGraphics and OpenGLGraphics. * Fixed a problem with the DropDown widget. When the widget was focused with a mouse press, you couldn't select elements with up and down keys. * Merged drawText, drawTextCenter and drawTextRight into one function drawText which takes an alignment parameter (thanks Ted!). Widgets taking advantage of this are Button and Label. * As a result of the added border support, almost every widget have been changed for the better, e.g removal of offsets. * Added support for borders. This is a major API change introducing some new functions to Widget. * Lots of small bugfixes Version 0.1.0 ============= * Guichan_allegro MSVC 6 compatibility fix. * TextBox doesn't draw its caret if its not editable. * Better exception with more information in ImageFont, added row spacing and glyph spacing functions. * Fixed problem in ImageFont when loading a corrupt file. It will now throw an exception (thanks Terin!). * Implemented _getRawData() in AllegroImageLoader. * Fixed Image. It is now overloadable. * DropDown sets the colors for its internal widgets if they are not custom widgets (not given to the DropDown by the user). * Now all default widgets respect the alpha channel in the colors. * Non focusable widgets will now not recieve key input ever. In previous version, focused widgets would still remain focused after setting them to not be focusable. * Moved tab handling from Gui to the FocusHandler. * Splitted setTabable to setTabInEnabled and setTabOutEnabled. Widgets can now have different behaviours on tab in and tab out. The old setTabable is equivalent to setTabInEnabled. * isVisisble now checks if parent is visible * Added alpha channel support in AllegroGraphics for drawing primitives * Added experimental alpha channel support in SDLGraphics for 32 bpp * Added full alpha channel support in OpenGLGraphics * Fixed OpenGL graphics to disable GL_LIGHTING before draw * Fixed container problem. Nonvisible widgets no longer recieves mouse input. * Fixed mouse out problem with SDLInput * Fixed alpha problem with the SDLImageLoader Version 0.0.1 ============= * Initial release |
