- The default mouse driver is now always named 'contiki.mou'.
- Alternative mouse drivers are present in the disk images.
- Users can select their mouse driver by renaming the files.
Since introduction of mDNS (f145c17039)
the resolver process initialization depends on the tcpip process
already being initialized (because of the call to udp_new()).
- Up to now the web browser used several fixed size arrays to hold the various types attribute data of the web page. This turned out to be way to inflexible for any non-trivial web page. Therefore now all attribute data is stored in a single buffer one after the other as they arrive from the parser only occupying the memory actually needed. This allows for pages with many links with rather short URLs as well as pages with few link with long URLs as well as pages with several simple forms as well as pages with one form with many form inputs.
- Using the actual web page buffer to hold the text buffers of text entry fields was in general a cool idea but in reality it is often necessary to enter text longer than the size of the text entry field. Therefore the text buffer is now stored in the new unified attribute data buffer.
- Splitting up the process of canonicalizing a link URL and actually navigating to the resulting URL allowed to get rid of the 'tmpurl' buffer used during form submit. Now the form action is canonicalized like a usual link, then the form input name/value pairs are written right into the 'url' buffer and afterwards the navigation is triggered.
- Support for the 'render states' was completely removed. The only actually supported render state was centered output. The new unified attribute buffer would have complicated enumerating all widgets added to the page in order to adjust their position. Therefore I decided to drop the whole feature as the <center> tag is barely used anymore and newer center attributes are to hard to parse.
Both the source code and the cc65 compiler have changed. So it made sense to review which object files are to be compiled for placement in the Language Card.
Relevant cc65 changes...
General:
- The compiler generates "extended" dependency info (like gcc) so there's no need for postprocessing whatsoever :-)
- The linker is very pernickety regarding the ordering of cmdline options so a custom linker rule is necessary :-(
Apple2:
- The various memory usage scenarios aren't specified anymore via separate linker configs but via defines overriding default values in the builtin linker config.
Atari:
- The builtin linker config allows to override the start addr so there no more need for a custom linker config.
- The C library comes with POSIX directory access. So there's no more need for for a custom coding.
CBM:
- The C library comes with POSIX directory access. So there's no more need for for a custom coding.
