* Removed obsolete signal from IContextSimulator
* Removed connectToSimulator() method from IContextSimulator as it is no
longer relevant
* CSimulatorComponent updates automatically when simulator disconnects
* FS9 & FSX drivers update (including FSCommon)
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
The latest vatlib fixes some ambigious methods in the interface and
makes them more clear. Additional it adds a severity level to the
log handlers. Both causing the header to be source incompatible and
therefore need smaller changes in swift.
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
* 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)
* Aircraft ICAO class: hasXX methods (hasAircraftCombinedType(), ..)
* Index Variant map, contains(index)
* Deleted context_network_textmessages.cpp and moved it into impl.cpp (this was only 1 method)
* Fixed bug refs#228
* changed .pro / .pri as required
* Used info from project class in network_vatlib
* Checks / info in GUI/core (e.g. console)
* const * versions of systemNameAndVersion / simulators, as mentioned in https://dev.vatsim-germany.org/issues/217#note-4
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).
