Both on_square_clicked and flood_mark were very similar so I've
introduced the on_square_clicked_impl function which is now
called by on_square_clicked and flood_fill.
Now that we support more than 2 clients per shared buffer, we can use them
for window icons. I didn't do that previously since it would have made the
Taskbar process unable to access the icons.
This opens up some nice possibilities for programmatically generated icons.
This behavior and API was extremely counter-intuitive since our default
behavior was for applications to never exit after you close all of their
windows.
Now that we exit the event loop by default when the very last GWindow is
deleted, we don't have to worry about this.
Instead of LibGUI and WindowServer building their own copies of the drawing
and graphics code, let's it in a separate LibDraw library.
This avoids building the code twice, and will encourage better separation
of concerns. :^)
Instead of manually doing String::format("%d"/"%u") everywhere, let's have
a String API for this. It's just a wrapper around format() for now, but it
could be made more efficient in the future.
Also run it across the whole tree to get everything using the One True Style.
We don't yet run this in an automated fashion as it's a little slow, but
there is a snippet to do so in makeall.sh.
Rather than having the first click hit a bomb, if the first click would
hit a bomb, instead, reset the game board.
This is a (sort of) feature of Windows minesweeper, and IMO makes
playing a bit more fun :-)
Use a number of techniques to avoid freezing the UI for too long.
- Keep reusing the same widgets for the squares once they've been created.
- Temporarily disable widget updates.
- Avoid some redundant work on each run of reset().
Someone was playing this game and suggested a number of improvements so here
we go trying to address them:
- Add "chording" support, where you can click a numbered square using both
mouse buttons simultaneously to sweep all non-flagged adjacent squares.
- Mis-flagged squares are now revealed as such on game over, with a special
"bad flag" icon.
- The game timer now shows tenths of seconds. It also doesn't start until
you click the first square.
- Add the three difficulty modes from the classic Windows version.
You open the configuration for an app like so:
auto config = CConfigFile::get_for_app("MyApp");
This will then open ~/MyApp.ini and parse it for you.
Immediately start using it in Minesweeper to load the field size and mine
count from a config file.
