1.0 2012-03-22 Gregory Nutt <gnutt@nuttx.org>
* The initial release of the NxWidgets package
1.1 2012-xx-xx Gregory Nutt <gnutt@nuttx.org>
* Updated and verified the NxWidgets DOxygen documentation. Contributed
by Jose Pablo Carballo.
* IBitmap, CRlePalettBitmap: Extended class to support differnt LUTs
for selected and non-selected images.
* CImage: If selected, uses different LUTs based, different borders.
CImage is now basically a button type.
* CImage: Add logic to hightlight an CImage (using the selected LUT).
* nxwm: The tiny NX window manager (NxWM) is being developed in this directory.
* UnitTests/nxwm: A unit test for the NX window manager.
* CWidgetControl: Add a semaphore to force clients to wait if the
size or position of the window is not yet known (multi-user mode only).
* During integration of NxWM, corrected numerous problems with NxWidgets
running on toolbars and framed windows. That capability was commented
out in the 1.0 release but is verfied functional in 1.1.
* CRlePalettBitmap: Fix an error in the text that determines if we
need to "rewind" to the beginning of the image.
* CRlePalettBitmap: Fixe a positioning problem. It was actually losing
the last row of every image!
* CNxWidget: Removed support for "shelving" widgets. I will be removing
some lesser used feature over time in order to reduce the NxWidgets
footprint.
* CNxWidget: Removed support for reference constants and close types.
The goal is to ge the base widget class as small as possible.
* CNxTkWindow: Fix uninitialized pointer value.
* CNxToolbar: Need to "fake" the fix position callback to avoid
deadlock waits for the callback that won't happen.
* CNxTkWindow: Fix toolbar background color
* CWidgetControl: Don't declare the the geometry is good until a non-NULL
window size is received.
* CGraphicsPort and CWidgetControl: If the underlying graphics device
is write-only, then we have to render fonts a little differently.
* CNxWidgets, CWidgetControl, and CRectCache: Big change! Remove all support
for widgets in a "vertical" hierarchy. Now widgets exist in a flat,
two-dimensional space and should not overlap. This should greatly
reduce the memory requirements and, since, NuttX already supports
a hierarchical windowing system, does not result in loss of functionality.
* CNxWidgets and CWidgetControl. Remove specific built-in support for
modal loops. There are too many different control mechanisms that might
be needed. Replace with hooks to control widget events from totally
external logic.
* CWindowEventHandler, CWindowEventHandlerList, CWidgetControl: New
callback classes to receive notifications about window events.
* NxWM::CFullScreenWindow and NxWM::CTaskbar: Add support in NxWM for full
screen window applications.
* All application windows now use CWindowEventHandler and CWindowEventHandlerList
to get notifications about mouse and keyboard events. These class will
then automatically handle polling (with no need for a modal loop).
* NxWM::CTouchscreen and NxWM::CCalibration: Add touchscreen support (still a long
way to go).
* NxWM::g_playBitmp: Change the play icon again. These tiny touch icons
must be very simple.
* NxWM::CCalibration: Beef up touch input handling logic. Now changes the
color of the touch circle to yellow when it is touched.
* NxWM::CTouchscreen: Do not read touchscreen data when there is no consumer.
* NxWM::CWindowControl: Add new class to wrap CWidgetControl and provide
some special mouse and keyboard input event handling.
