- Modified startup order of LCDd parts.
- Moved code for starting up the socket from main.c to sock.c
- Variable daemon_mode renamed to foreground_mode, consistent with command line.
- Variable lcd_port renamed to bind_port.
- Modified the constant stay_in_foreground for drivers hd44780 and sed1330. They don't need to stay in foreground anymore.
The ServerScreen option in LCDd.conf and the -i command line parameter were parsed in server/main.c, but the value of rotate_server_screen was not respected in server/serverscreens.[c,h].
- Now using priority classes internally and in protocol
- Converting (depreciated) priorty numbers to the classes BACKGROUND,
INFO and FOREGROUND
- Added menu_goto command (only works when menu not active)
- Now using CHAIN in stead of ESSENTIAL #define
- Changed naming of report* local variables
- Modified -s -f and -i options to accept boolean to be able to disable them too.
- Moved and altered code to create, destroy and manipulate clients, screens
and widgets in an OO-like manner.
- Moved command execution code to a commands directory, splitting commands to
what subject they are concerned.
- Menus are temporary disabled while working on new menu structure.
* Fixed up help screen to reflect added options
* Added -u option and User directive to configuration file
* Massaged help output to keep it under 24 lines
(one typical screenful).
* Removed some unused code.
* Options override all configuration file settings
* In absence of configuration file settings or option settings,
defaults are used
* Added new global settings: Port, Bind, Wait, WaitTime, Debug
* Added more documentation to LCDd.conf
* Heavily commented options
* Fixed bug introduced into default_duration and -w (my fault)
* Defined configuration file string defaults (no processing yet)
* Added simple optimization to option processing
* Reformed some comments for easier readability
* Fixed bug that caused program not to drop root privs when
running on port under 1024
* Converted further to use syslog instead of printf
* Ability to specify port and address to bind to
* By default, binds only to 127.0.0.1 port 13666
* Client commands now return usage when no options given
* New driver command: getinfo
* Added comments all over the place
* Used #defines to further document code
* Used #defines to set up compile-time defaults, etc.
* Cleaned up client command argument analysis in client_functions.c
* Beginning support of syslog
* Some bug fixes
serial port side. Also fixed problems with ioperm on the parallel port
side.
Added --waittime option to the server to specify how long the server
should leave a screen up before changing to the next screen.
as argument introducers. in 0.4-pre10, these were changed
from foo to -foo and this broke many clients. This change
should fix that and be backward/forward compatible.
+ Added a noop function to the protocol. This is useful for writing
shell script clients of LCDproc.
+ Changed the shared sock_send_string function to NOT send the
ending NUL ('\0') byte with the string. This was confusing
in Perl clients which saw NUL's as the first character of
each reply. WARNING: The LCDPROC client depended on this
behavior, your client may too. Use the newline instead.
See the code in clients/lcdproc/main.c (look for "switch(buf[i])")
to see one way to handle this. This should allow new clients
to connect to old servers and vice-versa.
+ Messed with include structure in .c files. It should no longer
be necessary to specify ../.. to get to shared code headers.
Also, since we are using automake, the global config.h can be
found with just #include "config.h" as it's location is included
in a -I to the compilers. As a result "make distcheck" now works.
