## New
- Read property files with `PropertiesFile`
- Support `boot.properties` so the user can specify the launcher app and an optional app to start after the launcher finishes. (see `BootProperties.cpp`)
- Create registry for CPU affinity and update code to make use of it
- `AppRegistration` and `ServiceRegistration` now also ensure that the `/data` directories always exist for all apps
- `Notes` is now the default app for opening text files. `TextViewer` is removed entirely. Created `tt::app:🎶:start(path)` function.
- WiFi settings moved from NVS to properties file.
- Specify `*.ap.properties` file on the SD card for automatic WiFi settings import on start-up.
- Added `file::getLock(path)` and `file::withLock(path, function)` to do safe file operations on SD cards
## Improvements
- Update TinyUSB to `1.7.6~1`
- Improved `Boot.cpp` code. General code quality fixes and some restructuring to improve readability.
- `tt::string` functionality improvements
- Rename `AppRegistry` to `AppRegistration`
- Rename `ServiceRegistry` to `ServiceRegistration`
- Cleanup in `Notes.cpp`
- `FileTest.cpp` fix for PC
- Created `TestFile` helper class for tests, which automatically deletes files after the test.
- Renamed `Partitions.h` to `MountPoints.h`
- Created `std::string getMountPoints()` function for easy re-use
- Other code quality improvements
- `SdCardDevice`'s `getState()` and `isMounted()` now have a timeout argument
## Fixes
- ELF loading now has a lock so to avoid a bug when 2 ELF apps are loaded in parallel
Various improvements and new internal APIs including a new Development service+app which allows `tactility.py` to upload and run applications remotely.
- Fixes and improvements to `GpsSettings` app, `GpsDevice` and `GpsService`
- Implemented location/GPS statusbar icon
- Added app icon
- Added support for other GPS models (based on Meshtastic code)
- Create `Include/` folder for all main projects
- Fix some issues here and there (found while moving things)
- All includes are now in `Tactility/` subfolder and must be included with that prefix. This fixes issues with clashing POSIX headers (e.g. `<semaphore.h>` versus Tactility's `Semaphore.h`)
- Lots of changes for migrating C code to C++
- Improved `Lockable` in several ways like adding `withLock()` (+ tests)
- Improved `Semaphore` a bit for improved readability, and also added some tests
- Upgrade Linux machine in GitHub Actions so that we can compile with a newer GCC
- Simplification of WiFi connection
- Updated funding options
- (and more)
- Refactor the way apps work: Instead of a C interface, they are now C++ classes. The main reasoning is that attaching data to an app was cumbersome. Having different implementations for different kinds of apps was cumbersome too. (3 or 4 layers of manifest nesting for the TactilityC project)
- External apps are still written in C, but they get a createData/destroyData in their manifest, so:
- External apps now have their own manifest.
- All functions in the original AppManifest are removed and replaced by a single `createApp` function
- External apps now automatically register (each app individually!) when they run the first time. As a side-effect they become visible in the `AppList` app!
- Adapted all apps for the new interface.
- Adapted all internal logic for these changes (Gui, ViewPort, Loader, AppContext, AppInstance, etc.)
- Rewrote parts of Loader to use std::shared_ptr to make the code much safer.
- Added a refcount check for the `AppInstance` and `App` at the end of their lifecycle. Show warning if refcount is too high.
