The Status(1) message acquires the new fields Frequency Tolerance, T/R
Period, and Configuration Name. The Rx DF, Tx DF fields become
unsigned (this should be a benign change which is just for correctness
as -ve values have never been possible).
The Close(6) message becomes bi-directional allowing external
applications to gracefully close down WSJT-X instances.
A new message SwitchConfiguration(14) is provided that allows an
external application to switch the current configuration of a WSJT-X
instance.
Another new message Configure(15) is provided to allow external
applications to adjust some key parameters like the mode and submode.
See the NetworkMessages.hpp header commentary for full details. The
UDPExamples/MessageAggregator reference application has been updated
to be able to exercise all of the above changes.
Note that this commit enforces stricter checking on the
"Settings->Reporting->Allow UDP requests" option, which must be
checked before any state changing incoming messages to a WSJT-X
instance are processed.
Re-enabling the WSJT-X i18n facilities. This allows translation files
to be created for languages that are automatically used to lookup
translatable strings. To enable a new language the language name must
be added to the CMakeLists.txt LANGUAGES list variable in BCP47 format
(i.e. en_US, en_GB, pt_PT, ...). Do one build with the CMake option
UPDATE_TRANSLATIONS enabled (do not leave it enabled as there is a
danger of loosing existing translated texts), that will create a fresh
translations/wsjtx_<lang>.ts file which should be immediately checked
in with the CMakeLists.txt change. The .ts should then be updated by
the translator using the Qt Linguist tool to add translations. Check
in the updated .ts file to complete the initial translation process
for that language.
To aid translators their WIP .ts file may be tested by releasing
(using the lrelease tool or from the Linguist menu) a .qm file and
placing that .qm file in the current directory before starting
WSJT-X. The translations will be used if the system locale matches the
file name. If the system locale does not match the file name; the
language may be overridden by setting the LANG environment variable.
For example if a wsjtx_pt_PT.qm file is in the current directory
WSJT-X will use it for translation lookups, regardless of the current
system locale setting, if the LANG variable is set to pt_PT or pt-PT.
On MS Windows from a command prompt:
set LANG=pt_PT
C:\WSJT\wsjtx\bin\wsjtx
elsewhere:
LANG=pt_PT wsjtx
This change also repairs a defect in showing potential LoTW users when
the "Settings->General->Show DXCC, grid, and worked before status"
option is not checked.
This change incorporates a reorganization of the GUI code with
widgets, validators, models, and item delegates being moved to
sub-directories.
Relax the requirements of the ForeignKeyDelegate and related
CandidateKeyFilter classes to allow them to work with constant model
pointers for both referenced and referencing models.
Make the group box checkable and the radio buttons mutually exclusive.
Prevent switch from any other mode to MSK144 and put up an error box if the contest radio button setting is not allowed for MSK144.
If currently in MSK144 mode and an invalid contest type is selected, put up an error box and change mode to FT8 where any contest type is allowed.
Settings option to highlight not worked before entities/grids/calls by
mode. Fix issues with highlighting decodes and generally refactor the
internal workings of ADIF and QSO recording for worked before
detection.
Includes a new settings facility with the highlighting being contrled
by a new model class and a modified QListView to display the data for
editing. Edits include enable and disable check boxes, a contextual
pop-up menu to adjust backkground and foreground colours.
Still to be implemented are priorities for highlighting
categories. This will be adjustable by drag and drop in the Colors
settings panel, it is already implemented by the priority order has no
effect on highlighting of decodes yet.
The LotW users data file fetch and time since user's last upload is
now controled from the settings dialog.
This change also drops support for Qt versions before 5.5 so that many
workarounds for earlier versions can be removed.
Debug trace is slightly modified to make better use of the Qt built in
facilities to format and synchronize cross thread messaging.
