To provide maximum flexibility, the simulator info is specified by each
plugin in the JSON metadata file.
* Renamed SCimulatorInfo to CSimulatorPluginInfo
* Removed pre-defined simulator infos (UnspecifiedSim, FSX, etc)
* CContextSimulator keeps track of which plugin is loaded and its info
* QSignalMapper keeps track of which listener emitted the simulatorStared() signal
* CSimulatorPluginInfo contains name, simulator name and description
* TODO: GUI part
* TODO: CTestFsCommon
Also refs #351
* messages can be formatted with style sheet
* fixed: removed command from message
* added originator to command line
* msg parsing now in core
* using ITimestampBased for text messages and status messages
* allow to resize rows to content (view base)
* model / views for text messages
* removed old qt stylesheets
(based on FSX testing)
* Only send changed situation to SIM
* Split sending of parts / situations
* Only send parts with a reduced frequency (means slower as positions)
* Mark geodetic height as null for default values (the value is usually unavailable)
* Fixed altitude to MSL for network data
* Trace which aircrafts support aircraft parts via network
* Renamed insert_fron push_front (as proposed by Roland)
Status quo / lessons learnt
* On slower PCs jitter is still noticed for interpolated aircraft.
* Running interpolation in an independent process (aka core, not in GUI) reduced load dependencies
=> it seems to make sense to run driver in own thread
* The onGround flag in parts seems clumsy as it required to retrieve parts for position updates
* In interpolation performance really matters
* removed unused functions / signals
* removed no longer used members / update timers
* Pass provider to contructors
* no direct access to monitor in other contexts
* helper method to detect disconnected state
* clear ATC info if disconnected or not available
* unit test for "finders"
* added Doxygen file
* formatting frequency in text message tabs
* fixed issue with parsing, only default locale is used. Now user's local possible
* allow to load FP for other callsigns as well (voice capabilities)
* Improved handling of CTime, inclusive bug fixes and time formatting
* Max. lengths for FP fields as const value (so we can change it if required)
* Load FP from GUI component
* Samples for PQ classes
* Adjusted depending classes (e.g. client)
added ConnectionStatus enum values DisconnectedFailed and DisconnectedLost
added extra argument to connectionStatusChanged signal, containing the socket error message
Changed FILE_PATTERNS config in Doxyfile so Doxygen only looks at headers, not cpp files.
Reverts some changes of commit:116db9a (e.g. terminate() is an internal signal of CNetworkVatlib, but still needs a doxy comment because all signals are public).
* Naming convention: "preset" only when disconnected, "send" only when connected, "set" both
* Every asynchronous pair is named as in "sendFooQuery" and "fooReplyReceived"
* Moved LoginMode from CNetworkVatlib constructor to INetwork::presetLoginMode
* Callsign and ICAO codes can only be changed when disconnected, so have their own "preset" methods
** Callsign and ICAO parts of setOwnAircraft are therefore ignored
** CUser part of setOwnAircraft is ignored, in favour of the CUser part of presetServer
* CNetworkVatlib takes care of reconstructing m_net if the LoginMode is changed
* INetwork setOwnAircraft slots
* ATIS received shimlib callback triggers separate VoiceRoom and LogoffTime signals
* INetwork statusMessage signal emitted in response to shimlib errors
* INetwork::ConnectionStatus added a DisconnectedError value and toString conversion
* INetwork::isConnected method
* Argument in CNetworkVatlib constructor to enable stealth or observer mode
* Update CLI sample, tests, and CContextNetwork accordingly
* rename CStatusMessages to CStatusMessageList
* rename NetworkVatlib to CNetworkVatlib
* replace all occurrences of Realname with RealName (correct camel case)
* CSequence method corresponding to CList::append is push_back
* don't compile the qdbuscpp2xml metadata plugin by default
* CAircraftIcao string members always trimmed and capitalized
* added CComSystem::roundTo25KHz
* using epsilon comparison in a couple of places
