XaAES known errors:
july 23
- Desk menu:
The submenu is attache/detached asymmetrically.
The submenu is collapsed 1 level too deep.
|
---- partly repaired.
- Keyboard:
Somewhere between MiNT, XaAES and the APP, key strokes disappear.
I think the moose spents too much time.
|
---- partly repaired in v0.9
- appl_control:
Still missing. :-)
- objc_sysvar:
Set functions missing.
- It looks like ACC's are not terminating correctly at shutdown.
(NVDI reports 'incorrect pointer for Free' a couple of times)
I can imagine that this happens when the physical workstation is
closed and the ACC's (who are gone) didnt close there virtual
workstations.
|
---- Some of the above problems were solved when I found correct mint
bindings for Pure C.
september 12
- objc_change still not good. Must distinguish between menu and other
trees. You can read more about this topic in the history.
search for the strings: tmplen, objc_change.
- Accessories are getting far too much memory it seems.
I have no idee why. Mshrink is done in the XaAES kernel.
Wrong ownership?
|
---- Repaired in v0.9: use Pexec(106, ...)
september 26
- XaAES is incapable of combining events.
But at least WM_TOPPED is sent now when clicked on a non top workarea.
This also means that background clicking of Thing is now gone.
- The menu bar switching is still a big mess, I tried to improve it,
but without much success. This needs patience and motivation and ample
time. :-) Later.
|
---- Almost completely repaired in v0.9
- There is a strange error in the moose which prevents mouse up events from
being reported.
This must have been there for a very long time, because the kernel
contains very strange code to compensate this, without much success.
|
---- Repaired in v0.9
- There is still a slight problem concerning moving of windows having the
new windowed listboxes in them, namely: fileselector, taskmanager
& system(alert) window.
So I disabled moving them.
Reason: No relative window positioning as for objects.
This will be repaired later.
|
---- Repaired in v0.805
- Falcons and the -fvideo parameter when XaAES is run from
mint.cnf or a commandline shell and no AES already active.
Open physical workstation using this parameter in workin[0] does not
work. I dont know why, and I dont know how it should be done.
I have no Falcon and no doc's about it.
Run MiNT with the ROM AES in the resolution you want, then start XaAES
from the desktop. That will work.
|
---- Repaired in v0.904
- There is a problem with the fileselector and programs writing to
the screen in background windows. Famous example: lines.app :-)
|
---- Repaired in v0.9
- Things desktop isnt always redrawn.
Topping one of things windows mostly cures it.
This will be repaired as soon as possible.
|
---- Repaired in v0.9
- Colour icons are displayed incorrect in high/true colour.
This will be repaired later.
- The focus handling is better than ever, but still not perfect.
This is mostly the case when acc's and app's without menu bar are
involved.
- The use of vq_mouse together with the moose sporadicly leads to a button
up reported although the button is not released.
Note! I speak of the result of the vq_mouse call.
This could be caused by the fact that both use the VBL queue. ???
- Under very rare conditions XaAES crashes when closing TosWin2 (>= 2.5)
console window via the closer widget.
- Shutdown is not a real and proper shutdown.
It only sends sigterm or sigkill to the clients and then quits.
- Iconified windows do not reuse free positions.
- The placement of submenu's can be more intelligent then it is now.
(Avoid overlap of the outer menu while keeping it inside the screen).
- If you start XaAES alone, no desk, no acc's, no run, the moose behaves
strange and doesnt work at all.
Have at least 1 acc, it doesnt matter which one.
This could be related to the (long existing) mouse kludge, which closes
and reopens the moose everytime a client is started.
