- Replace C function pointers with C++ `std::function` in `Thread`, `Timer` and `DispatcherThread`
- Rename `SystemEvent`-related functions
- WiFi: fix auto-connect when WiFi disconnects from bad signal
- WiFi: fix auto-connect when WiFi fails to auto-connect
- WiFi: implement disconnect() when tapping connected WiFi ap in WiFi management app
- Refactored GPS service and HAL: GPS is no longer part of the HAL configuration. You can now add configure new GPS devices from the GPS settings app.
- T-Deck adds a boot hook to check if a GPS configuration exists and adds it when the config is empty.
- Implemented the concept of ObjectFile to read/write arrays of a raw data type (e.g. struct) to disk.
- Implemented more file utils (e.g. to create all directories of a path)
- Renamed various keyboard functions so it's easier to differentiate hardware versus software keyboard functionality
- Created `Tactility/lvgl/Keyboard.h` as a proxy for the internal `Gui` service.
- Implemented `tt_lvgl_keyboard.h` in `TactilityC`.
- Implemented new app: Serial Console
- `Uart::writeString()`: fixed 2 mutex bugs
- `AlertDialog::start()` with default "OK" button added
- Created `tt::lvgl::defaultLockTime` for re-use
- Removed various usages of deprecated `lvgl::obj_set_style_no_padding()`
- Implemented `hal::uart::getNames()` to list all interface names
- Moved all Loader functionality into Loader class
- Improvement for Dispatcher construction
- Dispatcher and DispatcherThread: you can now specify the timeout when calling `dispatch()`. Default timeout is max timeout.
- Implement CrowPanel Advance 3.5"
- New driver subproject: ILI9488
- New driver subproject: GT911
- Refactor T-Deck to use new driver subproject
- Fix for `flash.ps1`: don't set flash speed
- 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)
Implemented more consistent naming:
- Moved all HAL devices into their own namespace (and related folder)
- Post-fixed all HAL device names with "Device"
- Use `tt::app::` functions to start/stop apps and get current app(context) instead of using loader everywhere
- Removed `tt_service_loader.*` from TactilityC
- Created `tt_app_stop()` for TactilityC
- Bumped version to 0.3.0 to prepare for upcoming release
- 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`)
When writing documentation, I realized how `onStart`/`onStop` isn't clearly communicating what it does (it could imply show/hide), so I renamed it to `onCreate` and `onDestroy`.
- 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)
FreeRTOS handles were stored plainly and they were deleted in the destructor of classes.
This meant that if a class were to be copied, the destructor would be called twice on the same handles and lead to double-free.
Seha on Discord suggested to fix this by using `std::unique_ptr` with a custom deletion function.
The changes affect:
- Thread
- Semaphore
- Mutex
- StreamBuffer
- Timer
- MessageQueue
- EventFlag
Thread changes:
- Removal of the hack with the `Data` struct
- Thread's main body is now just a private static function inside the class.
- The C functions were relocated to static class members
PubSub changes:
- Refactored pubsub into class
- Renamed files to `PubSub` instead of `Pubsub`
- `PubSubSubscription` is now a private inner struct and `PubSub` only exposes `SubscriptionHandle`
Lockable, ScopedLockable, Mutex:
- Added `lock()` method that locks indefinitely
- Remove deprecated `acquire()` and `release()` methods
- Removed `TtWaitForever` in favour of `portMAX_DELAY`
- unPhone improvements related to power and boot (add boot count logging)
- Cleanup of Mutex acquire/release
- Removed `tt_assert()` in favour of `assert()`
- Fix sim build (likely failed due to migration of GitHub Actions to Ubuntu 24.04)
- Remove custom `ESP_TARGET` and use `ESP_PLATFORM` everywhere
- Add `Loader` service functionality to `tt::app::` namespace
- Make `Loader` `PubSub` usable by exposing the messages
- Add board type to crash log
- Don't show SD card in Files app when it's not mounted
- Set default SPI frequency for SD cards
- Move TT_VERSION to scope that works for sim too
- Log Tactility version and board on boot
- Rename "Yellow Board" to "CYD 2432S024C"
- 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.
- WiFi Connect app is now hidden by default, but accessible at the bottom of the WiFi Manage app when WiFi is turned on.
- WiFi service now turns on WiFi when calling connect() and WiFi is not on.
- Removed `blocking` option for `service::loader::startApp()`. This feature was unused and complex.
- Various apps: Moved private headers into Private/ folder.
- Various apps: created start() function for easy starting.
- Added documentation to all TactilityC APIs
- Refactored various `enum` into `class enum`
- Refactor M5Stack `initBoot()` (but VBus is still 0V for some reason)
## Time & Date
- Added time to statusbar widget
- Added Time & Date Settings app
- Added TimeZone app for selecting TimeZone
- Added `tt::time` namespace with timezone code
## Other changes
- Added `SystemEvent` to publish/subscribe to system wide (e.g. for init code, but also for time settings changes)
- Changed the way the statusbar widget works: now there's only 1 that gets shown/hidden, instead of 1 instance per app instance.
- Moved `lowercase()` function to new namespace: `tt::string`
- Increased T-Deck flash & PSRAM SPI frequencies to 120 MHz (from 80 MHz)
- Temporary work-around (+ TODO item) for LVGL stack size (issue with WiFi app)
- Suppress T-Deck keystroke debugging to debug level (privacy issue)
- Improved SDL dependency wiring in various `CMakeLists.txt`
- `Loader` service had some variables renamed to the newer C++ style (from previous C style)
- Update `Configuration` to use C++ vector instead of C arrays
- Rename `Desktop` app to `Launcher`
- Fix for hard-coded app start of `Launcher` and `CrashDiagnostics` apps.
- Ensure `Launcher` icons are clickable, even if they're not loading.
- Don't show error scenario for SD card in statusbar when SD card status is unknown (this happens during Mutex timeout due to LVGL rendering delays)
- Cleanup deprecated `Mutex` methods.
- `hal::getConfiguration()` now returns a pointer instead of a reference, just like `tt:getConfiguration()`
- Rename `assets` and `config` partitions to `system` and `data`
- Change partition type from `spiffs` to `fat`, so we can have sub-directories
- Fix crash when doing WiFi scan: Increased system event task size to 3kB.
- Free up IRAM on ESP32 (it was required for the Core2, but I also freed up the same amount for Yellow Board)
- Introduced `Paths` objects that can be retrieved by `AppContext` and `ServiceContext`. Apps and services now have their own relative paths. Assets were re-arranged into the correct paths.
- Rename simulator window title to "Tactility"
- Refactored statusbar widget so it persists icon paths properly (it kept a const char* reference, but didn't copy it, so it crashed when the related std::string was destroyed)
- Created `Partitions.h` to expose some useful variables
- Moved USB config in various `sdkconfig` (it was part of the "default" section, but it shouldn't be)
- Updated domain name
- Create real drivers instead of wrapping M5Unified/M5GFX
- Display HAL improvements (better default base class behaviour)
- Fixed bug with LVGL statusbar service locking (would hang indefinitely waiting for mutex, causing WDT issues)
- Fixes for `Critical.h`
- Fixes and improvements for `Dispatcher` and `DispatcherThread`
