Build 1.00.2828Beta Available! - Ketschak - 05 Aug 2013
The new Murl Engine Build 1.00.2828Beta is available.
API Changes:
- Added various config items to IPlatformConfiguration
- Changed IWebControl::CreateUrlRequest() to not take an URL string. The URL string has to be specified later with the actual URL request object returned.
- Cleaned up IUrlRequest interface: Changed IUrlRequest::Post to SendGet() to do a real HTTP GET, added SendPost() for HTTP POST, added GetCurrentDataSize() to check how many bytes have been transmitted so far.
- Interface cleanup of Graph::IDrawable and Graph::IGenericGeometry
- Updated internal .murl/.murlpkg file revisions to 1.00 Note: Re-run tools in order to update internal revisions of your files!
New Features:
- Added optional Facebook add-on for iOS and Android
- Added Logic::ITimeframe::HasPassedTime() method
- Added Graph::ISound::SetBufferType() method for explicitly choosing a sound instance's buffer type (streaming or static)
- Added "renderBorder" and "repeatBorder" attributes for atlas_generator config files
- Added Resource::IFactory::CreateObjectFromFile() and related methods for runtime-creation of resource objects, together with Logic::IState::GetResourceFactory() to actually access the resource factory for doing so
- Added ILoader::QueryPackage() and IPackage::Query() methods for retrieving information about a registered resource package, plus related methods in Resource::IPackage, Resource::IPackageFactory and Resource::ICollection
- Added Resource::IArchive resource type
- Added Util::Compress() and Util::Uncompress() functions, for comressing and uncompressing custom data using ZLib
- Added Graph::IAligner::GetBoundingVolume() to retrieve current bounding volume in OnFinishTick()
- Added IPackage::HasFailedLoading() and IPackage::HasFailedUnloading() methods
- Introduced the "outputTextureId" attribute in Graph::TextGeometry and Graph::FlatTextTexture to allow for layered text rendering to a single texture
- Introduced "offsetX" and "offsetY" attributes in Graph::TextGeometry to specify an X and Y offset for rendering
Improvements:
- Optimized surface blurring
- Changed the OpenAL library to build as a shared lib on Android
- Improved Android platform code & tool chain to allow for registering custom JNI classes and controls
- Updated Android In-App Billing to Google V3 implementation
- Improved handling of custom controls
- Introduced a mechanism for certain Android devices (e.g. Galaxy S4) trying to prevent automatic CPU throttling by the OS
- Added optional file category for ILoader::AddPackage()
- Improved embolding of outline fonts
- Renamed "Dx9" namespace to "Dx90"
Fixes:
- Fixed minor memory leaks
- Fixed a bug in Graph::BoxCuller
- Fixed a bug in the openal_soft library which caused noticeable noise when sending the app to background
- Added a workaround on Android for explicitly setting the target frame rate with IAppConfiguration::SetDisplayRefreshFrequency()
- Fixed a bug in Graph::TextGeometry resulting in too large output with a prescale factor of > 1
- Fixed a bug regarding custom file/folder access in Android
- Updated resource_packer to print a better response when output file(s) were specified in an incorrect way
- Fixed E-Mail handling
- Fixed a bug regarding incorrect word wrapping of outline fonts
- Fixed a bug regarding automatic text fitting with non-zero borders
- Fixed a bug in Graph::TextGeometry preventing correct alignment in conjunction with Graph::Aligner
- Fixed Graph::Aligner to not apply spacing between elements for inactive children
- Fixed a nasty race condition in Graph::Node::Init()
- Fixed a bug regarding touch input handling for orthographic cameras
- Fixed a bug in font_converter resulting in a crash when parsing certain true type fonts
Have fun coding!
