The order that listeners get notified isn't deterministic and as a result plugins which read the current state from PluginCore during the handling of a state change event may read a stale state resulting in unexpected results. PluginCore now reads a property directly from LogMonitor to avoid such inconsistencies.
* Add event-based LogMonitor state changes to better handle batch reads
Pre-reading hackily used read-all to suppress notifications. But that broke some assumptions about what read-all meant. Furthermore, the Core UI told plugins about read-all rather than the log monitor telling them -- which is really what should be telling them.
To address these concerns, LogMonitor now provides an event that both the PluginCore and PluginEventHandler listens to or tracking logging state allowing more granular information about the activities of LogMonitor, including distinguishing between ReadAll and Pre-read batches. Plugins no longer need to track if LogMonitor is in batch-read mode or not -- PluginCore now provides it.
I've also converted all built-in plugins to use the new event-based system. The old system is marked deprecated and will go away once other known contributed plugins have converted to the new system.
* Change LogMonitorState enum to [Flags], drop 'None' state
As requested, and did associated simplifications and cleanup that followed.
When first sample is taken, the notification is displayed showing what was sampled and number of samples taken. Number of samples taken is updated on the second sample. Notification is removed when the final sample is taken.
* Show notification with genetic sampling status while in progress
When first sample is taken, the notification is displayed showing what was sampled and number of samples taken. Number of samples taken is updated on the second sample. Notification is removed when the final sample is taken.
* Add setting and additional notification cleanup conditions
As requested:
- Added a setting to control the genetic sampler overlay.
- Added a few more conditions (FSDJump, LeaveBody, Shutdown) to clean up the notification.
Plugins authors can now optionally specify what ways their notifications are rendered (subject, of course, to user preferences/settings). The default is to render notifications in all available channels. Examples:
- Show native pop-up window only (ie. no voice/plugin notifiers)
- Disallow other plugin notifiers
This does not support selection of notifier plugins.
Furthermore, persistent notification updates were not previously being forwarded to anything but the native popup notifier. Now plugins and native voice are also supported (subject to user preferences) and respect the new rendering controls added here. There is currently no concept of closing notifications for the native voice or plugin-based notifiers.
System context pre-reading logic previously assumed the player jumped into the current system in their own ship as a pilot. Arriving docked on their carrier was thus missed and may have resulted in processing more than one systems worth of context (or simply failing to pre-read context).
Manipulating active notifications must be done on the Avalonia UI thread. UpdateNotification and CloseNotification were not properly doing this.
Any plugin attempting to use persistent notifications would have encountered these errors.
NOTE: There is not yet hooks for cleaning up persistent/infinite timeout notifications when the APP is closed.
The former method lost any XML markup (such as say-as tags, etc) embedded within the voice tag. In the future if support for setting voice speed is added, it can be inserted here easily as well.
* WIP: initial commit for observatory herald
* Plugin error handling refactor
* make error window non-modal
* tidy up plugin error handling
* first pass for basic herald functionality
* corrections for linux env
* Use FNV hash directly instead of managing through dictionary/index file
* resolve audio queuing issue, switch to personal NetCoreAudio fork
* merge cleanup
* add enable setting, populate defaults
* framework xml doc update
* Adjust settings, add style selection, replace locale with demonym in dropdown list.
* Test is position is on screen before saving/loading.
* use a default that's actually in the list
