There are lots of places where Puzzles formats integers into
fixed-length buffers using sprintf() with a "%d" format. This isn't
very safe, since C doesn't guarantee any particular maximum size for an
"int". However, the restrictions on representations of integers means
we can infer an upper bound using sizeof(), CHAR_BIT, and an
approximation to the binary log of 10.

Quite a few backends currently generate colours by multiplying the
foreground colour by a fraction, effectively mixing it with black. On a
black background, this might be reasonably replaced by mixing the
background colour with white, but that's rather arithmetically fiddly.
Happily, I already have a function for that and just need to expose it.

Specifically for passing -1 as a colour number, and for proper handling
of dark backgrounds.

This provides a way for the front end to ask how a particular key should
be labelled right now (specifically, for a given game_state and
game_ui). This is useful on feature phones where it's conventional to
put a small caption above each soft key indicating what it currently
does.
The function currently provides labels only for CURSOR_SELECT and
CURSOR_SELECT2. This is because these are the only keys that need
labelling on KaiOS.
The concept of labelling keys also turns up in the request_keys() call,
but there are quite a few differences. The labels returned by
current_key_label() are dynamic and likely to vary with each move, while
the labels provided by request_keys() are constant for a given
game_params. Also, the keys returned by request_keys() don't generally
include CURSOR_SELECT and CURSOR_SELECT2, because those aren't necessary
on platforms with pointing devices. It might be possible to provide a
unified API covering both of this, but I think it would be quite
difficult to work with.
Where a key is to be unlabelled, current_key_label() is expected to
return an empty string. This leaves open the possibility of NULL
indicating a fallback to button2label or the label specified by
request_keys() in the future.
It's tempting to try to implement current_key_label() by calling
interpret_move() and parsing its output. This doesn't work for two
reasons. One is that interpret_move() is entitled to modify the
game_ui, and there isn't really a practical way to back those changes
out. The other is that the information returned by interpret_move()
isn't sufficient to generate a label. For instance, in many puzzles it
generates moves that toggle the state of a square, but we want the label
to reflect which state the square will be toggled to. The result is
that I've generally ended up pulling bits of code from interpret_move()
and execute_move() together to implement current_key_label().
Alongside the back-end function, there's a midend_current_key_label()
that's a thin wrapper around the back-end function. It just adds an
assertion about which key's being requested and a default null
implementation so that back-ends can avoid defining the function if it
will do nothing useful.

It's used to fill the drawing area and also by some front-ends (at
least GTK and JavaScript) to fill areas around the drawing area.

At least one puzzle does no actual decoding in decode_ui, but does
re-initialise some fields. This is unnecessary because the mid-end only
calls decode_ui() with a game_ui it just allocated using new_ui().

This adds a new bool * argument, which can be NULL if front ends don't
care whether the keypress was handled. Currently they all do that.
Currently, "undo" and "redo" keys are treated as not handled if there's
no move to undo or redo. This may be a little too strict.

The device pixel ratio indicates how many physical pixels there are in
the platonic ideal of a pixel, at least approximately. In Web browsers,
the device pixel ratio is used to represent "retina" displays with
particularly high pixel densities, and also to reflect user-driven
zooming of the page to different text sizes.
The mid-end uses the device pixel ratio to adjust the tile size at
startup, and can also respond to changes in device pixel ratio by
adjusting the time size later. This is accomplished through a new
argument to midend_size() which can simply be passed as 1.0 in any front
end that doesn't care about this.

Net can have non-alphanumeric characters in its parameter strings. Both
"5x5b0.1" and "5x5b1e-05" are valid parameter strings generated by Net.
So only "most" puzzles use alphanumeric parameter strings.
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
The exception is the random seed string, which we lightly document as
non-ASCII.

It's got a bit out of date over the years, with some changes to the
code not fully reflected in it (e.g. not all the int -> bool type
changes were documented, and TRUE and FALSE were still mentioned),
and quite a lot of new functions not added. (In particular, the dsf
API was not documented, and it certainly should have been, if only so
that people can find out what it even stands for!)
As well as correcting for factual accuracy, two content changes in the
advice chapter:
I've reworded the definition of 'fairness' to explicitly mention that
requiring the player to use Undo is cheating. That's always how I
_intended_ the definition, but I didn't say it clearly enough.
And I've added an entire new section describing the normal sensible
way to implement redraw(), via a loop of the form 'work out what this
cell should look like, check it against an array in game_drawstate of
the last state we drew it in, and if they're different, call a redraw
function'. That was mentioned in passing in two other sections, but I
know at least one developer didn't find it, so now it's less well
hidden.

This integer parameter appears in all of the game's anim_length,
flash_length and redraw methods, but the documentation only described
it properly in the section for anim_length.
The section for flash_length refers you to anim_length for the
description of all the parameters, but unhelpfully, it did so without
a conveniently clickable (in HTML) cross-reference.
And the section for game_redraw missed out the description of 'int
dir' completely, which is particularly unhelpful since that's the
function most likely to actually need to care about it! (Even if
forward and reversed move animations look different, they _probably_
still have the same duration, so it's more likely that anim_length
would ignore 'dir' and redraw would use it than vice versa.)

This completely removes the old system of mkfiles.pl + Recipe + .R
files that I used to manage the various per-platform makefiles and
other build scripts in this code base. In its place is a
CMakeLists.txt setup, which is still able to compile for Linux,
Windows, MacOS, NestedVM and Emscripten.
The main reason for doing this is because mkfiles.pl was a horrible
pile of unmaintainable cruft. It was hard to keep up to date (e.g.
didn't reliably support the latest Visual Studio project files); it
was so specific to me that nobody else could maintain it (or was even
interested in trying, and who can blame them?), and it wasn't even
easy to _use_ if you weren't me. And it didn't even produce very good
makefiles.
In fact I've been wanting to hurl mkfiles.pl in the bin for years, but
was blocked by CMake not quite being able to support my clang-cl based
system for cross-compiling for Windows on Linux. But CMake 3.20 was
released this month and fixes the last bug in that area (it had to do
with preprocessing of .rc files), so now I'm unblocked!
CMake is not perfect, but it's better at mkfiles.pl's job than
mkfiles.pl was, and it has the great advantage that lots of other
people already know about it.
Other advantages of the CMake system:
- Easier to build with. At least for the big three platforms, it's
possible to write down a list of build commands that's actually the
same everywhere ("cmake ." followed by "cmake --build ."). There's
endless scope for making your end-user cmake commands more fancy
than that, for various advantages, but very few people _have_ to.
- Less effort required to add a new puzzle. You just add a puzzle()
statement to the top-level CMakeLists.txt, instead of needing to
remember eight separate fiddly things to put in the .R file. (Look
at the reduction in CHECKLST.txt!)
- The 'unfinished' subdirectory is now _built_ unconditionally, even
if the things in it don't go into the 'make install' target. So
they won't bit-rot in future.
- Unix build: unified the old icons makefile with the main build, so
that each puzzle builds without an icon, runs to build its icon,
then relinks with it.
- Windows build: far easier to switch back and forth between debug
and release than with the old makefiles.
- MacOS build: CMake has its own .dmg generator, which is surely
better thought out than my ten-line bodge.
- net reduction in the number of lines of code in the code base. In
fact, that's still true _even_ if you don't count the deletion of
mkfiles.pl itself - that script didn't even have the virtue of
allowing everything else to be done exceptionally concisely.

The Rockbox frontend allows games to be displayed in a "zoomed-in"
state targets with small displays. Currently we use a modal interface
-- a "viewing" mode in which the cursor keys are used to pan around
the rendered bitmap; and an "interaction" mode that actually sends
keys to the game.
This commit adds a midend_get_cursor_location() function to allow the
frontend to retrieve the backend's cursor location or other "region of
interest" -- such as the player location in Cube or Inertia.
With this information, the Rockbox frontend can now intelligently
follow the cursor around in the zoomed-in state, eliminating the need
for a modal interface.

these puzzles are even using at the moment.

Not many changes here: the 'dotted' flag passed to print_line_dotted
is bool, and so is the printing_in_colour flag passed to
print_get_colour. Also ps_init() takes a bool.
line_dotted is also a method in the drawing API structure, but it's
not actually filled in for any non-print-oriented implementation of
that API. So only front ends that do platform-specific _printing_
should need to make a corresponding change. In-tree, for example,
windows.c needed a fix because it prints via Windows GDI, but gtk.c
didn't have to do anything, because its CLI-based printing facility
just delegates to ps.c.

This changes parameters of midend_size and midend_print_puzzle, the
return types of midend_process_key, midend_wants_statusbar,
midend_can_format_as_text_now and midend_can_{undo,redo}, the 'bval'
field in struct config_item, and finally the return type of the
function pointer passed to midend_deserialise and identify_game.
The last of those changes requires a corresponding fix in clients of
midend_deserialise and identify_game, so in this commit I've also
updated all the in-tree front ends to match. I expect downstream front
ends will need to do the same when they merge this change.

encode_params, validate_params and new_desc now take a bool parameter;
fetch_preset, can_format_as_text_now and timing_state all return bool;
and the data fields is_timed, wants_statusbar and can_* are all bool.
All of those were previously typed as int, but semantically boolean.
This commit changes the API declarations in puzzles.h, updates all the
games to match (including the unfinisheds), and updates the developer
docs as well.

This function gives the front end a way to find out what keys the back
end requires; and as such it is mostly useful for ports without a
keyboard. It is based on changes originally found in Chris Boyle's
Android port, though some modifications were needed to make it more
flexible.
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
I've also added that warning option and -Werror to the build script,
so that I'll find out if I break this property in future.
|
| |
|
|
|
|
| |
I went through all the char * parameters and return values I could see
in puzzles.h by eye and spotted ones that surely ought to have been
const all along.
|
| |
|
|
|
| |
They're never dynamically allocated, and are almost always string
literals, so const is more appropriate.
|
| |
|
|
|
|
| |
This allows me to use different types for the mutable, dynamically
allocated string value in a C_STRING control and the fixed constant
list of option names in a C_CHOICES.
|

|

|
|
|
|
|

Now midend.c directly tests the returned pointer for equality to this
value, instead of checking whether it's the empty string.
A minor effect of this is that games may now return a dynamically
allocated empty string from interpret_move() and treat it as just
another legal move description. But I don't expect anyone to be
perverse enough to actually do that! The main purpose is that it
avoids returning a string literal from a function whose return type is
a pointer to _non-const_ char, i.e. we are now one step closer to
being able to make this code base clean under -Wwrite-strings.

A line less than 1 pixel wide may not be visible. So if a backend
wants to draw a line whose width scaled by the window size, that line
thickness ought to be at least 1.0.
That way if the scale is small, but still big enough that there is a
straightforward interpretation of the drawing primitives which is
legible, we implement that interpretation.
If a frontend draws a narrower line, making it wider might cause
drawing anomalies, due to the line now having a bigger bounding box.
These anomalies should occur only at small scales where currently the
display is not legible, and we should fix them as we notice them.

To do this, I've completely replaced the API between mid-end and front
end, so any downstream front end maintainers will have to do some
rewriting of their own (sorry). I've done the necessary work in all
five of the front ends I keep in-tree here - Windows, GTK, OS X,
Javascript/Emscripten, and Java/NestedVM - and I've done it in various
different styles (as each front end found most convenient), so that
should provide a variety of sample code to show downstreams how, if
they should need it.
I've left in the old puzzle back-end API function to return a flat
list of presets, so for the moment, all the puzzle backends are
unchanged apart from an extra null pointer appearing in their
top-level game structure. In a future commit I'll actually use the new
feature in a puzzle; perhaps in the further future it might make sense
to migrate all the puzzles to the new API and stop providing back ends
with two alternative ways of doing things, but this seemed like enough
upheaval for one day.

solve_game() was returning its aux parameter un-dupstr()ed, which is
wrong. Also clarified the developer docs on that function to make it
clearer that the returned string should be dynamic.

new_desc. Oddities in the 'make test' output brought to my attention
that a few puzzles have been modifying their input game_params for
various reasons; they shouldn't do that, because that's the
game_params held permanently by the midend and it will affect
subsequent game generations if they modify it. So now those arguments
are const, and all the games which previously modified their
game_params now take a copy and modify that instead.

when the user pressed 'n' for a new game, because all the front end
knows is that it passed a keystroke to the puzzle, and it has no way
of hearing back that a particular keypress resulted in a game id
change.
To fix this, I've renamed midend_request_desc_changes to
midend_request_id_changes and expanded its remit to cover _any_ change
to the game ids. So now that callback in the Emscripten front end is
the only place from which update_permalinks is called (apart from
initialising them at setup time), and that should handle everything.

basically just so that it can divide mouse coordinates by the tile
size, but is definitely not expected to _write_ to it, and it hadn't
previously occurred to me that anyone might try. Therefore,
interpret_move() now gets a pointer to a _const_ game_drawstate
instead of a writable one.
All existing puzzles cope fine with this API change (as long as the
new const qualifier is also added to a couple of subfunctions to which
interpret_move delegates work), except for the just-committed Undead,
which somehow had ds->ascii and ui->ascii the wrong way round but is
otherwise unproblematic.

midend_status(), and given it three return codes for win, (permanent)
loss and game-still-in-play. Depending on what the front end wants to
use it for, it may find any or all of these three states worth
distinguishing from each other.
(I suppose a further enhancement might be to add _non_-permanent loss
as a fourth distinct status, to describe situations in which you can't
play further without pressing Undo but doing so is not completely
pointless. That might reasonably include dead-end situations in Same
Game and Pegs, and blown-self-up situations in Mines and Inertia.
However, I haven't done this at present.)
