I've now put everything in place in sg & fgfs that was need to replace the old waypoint dialog with something fancier. I intend to throw out auto_gui.[ch]xx, so I better warn you and ask for comments. If nobody objects, then I'll commit this in a few days (I'm away over weekend).
http://members.aon.at/mfranz/waypoints.jpg [24 kB] And it goes like this: * move a few parts of auto_gui.cxx to route_mgr.cxx * remove auto_gui.[ch]xx (there are a few unused dialogs in there that will just get dropped without replacement; Easy to add later on as XML-dialogs if we need them. But I doubt we will.) * implements almost all functionality as XML dialog with embedded Nasal * adds a listener property that waits for the well-known waypoint specifications ([EMAIL PROTECTED] etc.), *and* for these commands: $CLEAR ... to clear the route $POP ... to remove the first entry $DELETE 3 ... to remove the 4th entry These commands replace the fgcommands, but if people insist, then I'll add regular fgcommands as wrappers. * as written above, drop deprecated fgcommands: old-ap-add-waypoint-dialog, old-ap-pop-waypoint-dialog, old-ap-clear-route-dialog Advantages: * removes ugly and modal hardcoded dialog * non-blocking, draggable * dialog is "live": entries are immediately effective, the status line (top) shows current distance/Estimated Time of Arrival towards active waypoint * the "Remove" button removes the selected entry, or the last if none selected * input doesn't need to be in upper-case letters, but automatically converted TODO: * allow to insert waypoints *in* the list (currently always appended) * allow lon/lat waypoints in addition to airports & fixes m. ------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
