Added:
* class FDPlane (`ncfdplane*`)
* class Subproc (`ncsubproc*`)
* NotCurses: get_inputready_fd (`notcurses_inputready_fd`)
* Plane: qrcode (`ncplane_qrcode`)
* class PlotBase: templated base class for Plot variations
* class PlotU: `uint64_t` instantiation of PlotBase (aliased to previous
`Plot` class for source compatibility), `ncuplot*`
* class PlotD: `double` instantiation of PlotBase, `ncdplot*`
* ncplane_at_* and ncplane_at_cursor_*
We had notcurses_at_yx() expanding into three distinct parts of
the cell structure, and ncplane_at_yx() / ncplane_at_cursor()
writing directly to a cell. It was annoying to remember which
was which. The latter two now have a signature matching
notcurses_at_yx(), while the old functionality has been moved
to ncplane_at_yx_cell() and ncplane_at_cursor_yx(). #476
Nick prefers error handling based on exceptions in all cases, while I
prefer to save exception handling for truly exceptional situations -
function parameter validation and class constructor. However, there's no
need to not support both approaches, to be chosen at the discretion of
the developer.
NCPP follows RAII and all classes throw exceptions from their
constructors in case they cannot initialize properly. Likewise,
functions taking pointers that are required validate them and throw
exceptions whenever the requirement isn't met.
This commit goes one step further in that it enables optional validation
of notcurses function return values and throwing an
exception (`ncpp::call_error`) should the function signal an error. This
is disabled by default but it can be enabled by defining the
`NCPP_EXCEPTIONS_PLEASE` macro (preferably on the command line or
before *each* inclusion of any NCPP headers).
Out of necessity, this breaks the ABI (plus I found a handful of minor
issues in the code), but I think it's worth having this support in
place.
* packaging: s/libtinfo/Terminfo/g
* rust: add stddim_yx()
* rust: check for valid init in unit tests
* rust: serialize up tests
* constify notcurses_term_dim_yx()
* rust: add dim wrappers
* remove notcurses_resize() from public API #367
* call notcurses_resize() from notcurses_refresh() #367
Fill-type functions used to return 0 for success, and -1
on failure. They now return the number of cells written
on success, similarly to ncvisual_render(). Resolves#427.
Resolves#410. notcurses_at_yx() accepted a cell*, but the
gcluster of this cell was always set to 0. The EGC is instead
a heap-allocated copy, returned as the primary return value.
This is due to the absence of an egcpool to bind against.
Existing callers can be converted thus:
* instead of passing cell 'c', pass &(c)->attrword, &(c)->channels
* either initialize 'c' with CELL_TRIVIAL_INITIALIZER, or set its
gcluster field to 0 following the call
I've updated all calls from tests/demos, updated the docs, and
updated the C++ and Python wrappers.
Add ncplane_bound(3). This allows a new plane N to be created in the
*bound* state relative to another ncplane B. If B moves, N moves the
same amount. If N is moved, the coordinates are taken relative to B
as opposed to the standard plane. If B is destroyed, N is destroyed.
Each plane can have many planes bound to it, but can only be bound to
a single plane. Add ncplane_reparent(3). This allows a plane to be
detached from any plane to which it is bound, and optionally rebound
to a new plane. The standard plane cannot be reparented.
Documentation and unit tests have been added for both.
