Re: [Freeciv-Dev] State of Civworld
IIRC there were some port attempts, but there were too many changes to the codebase since then. It was eventually decided that we should try to incorporate the Civworld functionality into the regular civclient, via an edit mode, changing it to enable remote map editing. I believe some of these features are in CVS right now, but support is rudimentary and poorly tested. On 2/5/07, Daniel Markstedt <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: I tried the old unofficial win32 build of Civworld from late 2004 (http://deepblue.sk/~r0b0/freeciv/ ), and it seems to be working fine with 2.0.8.

How much would the Civworld code for 2.0 have to be modified to work with 2.1?

Re: [Freeciv-Dev] Permission to make freeciv headers standard C/C++ compatible.
On 6/3/07, James Supancic <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
I'm working on a C++ GUI for freeciv. I need to make some calls into
the C component of client. The problem I'm running into is that the
freeciv header files are neither standard C or C++ compatible.
For example:
typedef enum a b;
enum a { A, B };
When this is compiled with g++ or 'gcc -pedantic' there will be an
error, if it is compiled with gcc there will be no error.
Why even compile with -pedantic in the first place?
Given this problem, I see three possible solutions:
1) Quit
2) update the freeciv headers
3) write a C++ compatible wrapper for the functions I need.
#3 would be the easiest in the short term, but long term it will
require a significant amount of additional work to maintain. #2 is the
best in the long term, but has significant dangers. In updating the
headers, I could possibly introduce bugs or break features.
I'd like to do #2, with permission from the freeciv development team.
However, I'm also willing to do #3 if they feel it is unsafe.
#2 will probably involve me moving around some typedefs so that they
don't come before enum declarations and refactoring the code to
eliminate the use of 'class' as an identifier (as this is a C++
reserved keyword), perhaps other things.
Thank you for your time,

There should be old > ticket for this. I believe the warnings are about pointers cast to ints or back. This is used by some tricks with pointer tables, which I guess are used by some interpreters. If 32-bit pointers are being cast to 32-bit ints, it works. But if 64-bit pointers are being cast to 32-bits, there is not enough space to fit the data. A 64-bit int type should be used then. Even better, since we use C99, intptr_t or uintptr_t can be used. Of course, if the Lua people fixed this, we probably should just upgrade. Otherwise we should fix it and give them a patch. -- Vasco Alexandre da Silva Costa ___ Freeciv-dev mailing list Freeciv-dev@gna.org https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/freeciv-dev

[Freeciv-Dev] Future of this mailing list
Hello, As you are probably aware, I (vasc) am no longer actively coding for this project. I used to be active in the past, before I, and the other maintainers, felt we had better avenues to pursue and went elsewhere. But we still have a place in our heart for this project. See: http://www.ohloh.net/projects/3229/analyses/latest/contributors We have some new manpower but the House of Freeciv is a bit ruined. Dust and mothballs are piling up. I believe the first place to start with, now that the game code and data, our crown jewels, are safe, is communication. I believe e-mail lists, news, forums are relics of the past. We should offload all our public group communications to Google Groups. Why? - Nearly everyone already has a Google account. - The freeciv-dev and player forum discussions are public anyway. - It takes no extra maintainer effort from us. - It does e-mail and it does web forums.

[Freeciv-Dev] Fwd: Variable array var = { ...} is not displayed
Hello folks,
I am forwarding this e-mail to the main Freeciv development list.
So young, and the metaserver project already has a bug report and patch.

Please could you apply this patch. Variable array var = { ...} is not
displayed since players exist bcs variables $row["host"] and $row["port"] are
erase by the query.

Re: [Freeciv-Dev] [bug #20844] Effects.ruleset [effect_maint_player] has unknown req: Building" "Service Shop"
"Player" range is used for small wonders. If the building is not a small
wonder it won't work.
"City" is the range used for checking if a particular city has that
improvement.

Re: [Freeciv-Dev] Freeciv should have the "Terra" mapscript from Civilization 4
The way this is reproduced in games like Europa Universalis is that nations in the Americas and Africa have a reduced tech research rate due to their 'culture'. EU has nation, race, culture attributes. The race attributes influence the ease of assimilation of conquered lands and revolt risk.

Re: [Freeciv-Dev] [patch #6938] [Metaticket] Get rid of gtkpixcomm
GtkPixcomm is a widget I ported over from the Xaw client to GTK+. At the time GTK+'s GtkImage widget had memory leaks and did not include rectangle drawing routines. Without GtkPixcomm the Freeciv client would increase its memory resource usage quickly over the course of 30 minutes because of the memory leaks. You could test this easily by opening a city dialog and running a game with AIs on auto and took at the memory consumption of the client with 'top'. I hope GTK+ upstream fixed those memory leaks. But then again I don't know which widgets you are using atm.

Re: [Freeciv-Dev] [patch #6938] [Metaticket] Get rid of gtkpixcomm
Feh, it seems that GTK+ 3.x itself uses deprecated code inside GtkImage (which is not deprecated). e.g.: https://git.gnome.org/browse/gtk+/tree/gtk/gtkimage.c G_GNUC_BEGIN_IGNORE_DEPRECATIONSG_DEFINE_TYPE_WITH_PRIVATE (GtkImage, gtk_image, GTK_TYPE_MISC) G_GNUC_END_IGNORE_DEPRECATIONS https://git.gnome.org/browse/gtk+/tree/gtk/gtkimage.h #include Even GtkLabel is like this. I would just do the same thing they do in the GTK+ 3.x widgets. Silence the warnings. Once they actually figure out how to reimplement the GtkMisc derived classes then this can be changed. When will that be 4.0? https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/GTK+/Roadmap However it seems you still need to port some other things to port the GtkPixcomm widget to 3.x. It's your call if GtkImage is useable enough to replace GtkPixcomm as of GTK+ 3.x. Just my two cents worth...

When will that be 4.0? https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/GTK+/Roadmap There is some patch to derive GtkImage from GtkWidget direct in the GTK+ Bugzilla but I would rather wait until it lands on something solid. However it seems you still need to port some other things to port the GtkPixcomm widget to 3.x. The destroy callback handler seems to be moved to the finalize handler. Just my two cents worth...

Re: [Freeciv-Dev] [bug #21851] Possible memory leak in city dialog (in X server?)
Guys, I don't know if this is the issue but here is some info: - if the memory leaks are severe it probably means we are leaking pixmaps somewhere (it's the only thing that uses that much space). - we had issues with severe memory leaks in citydlg.c when we did the initial GTK+ 2.x client. I found out they were caused by the GtkImage widgets back then (namely the units and possibly also the improvements icons). that's why I eventually wrote the GtkPixcomm widget class (similar to the one present in the Xaw client) to solve the memory leak and performance issues back then. that supposedly solved the leaks. - the production icons (added later) still used the standard GTK+ library widgets (we never made our own specific list widget for this). so those should use a lot of of memory. the fact is we shouldn't allocate any pixmaps or pixbufs. We should just use the sprites data and redraw things as necessary to avoid memory allocations. - back then the easiest way to reproduce leaks was to repeatedly open and close the city dialog. - i also had issues with using Valgrind back then to debug the memory leaks. but had some success with a leak detector tool that back then was used developed by the GNOME developers (MemProf). You guys should probably ask the GNOME or GTK+ developers what they currently use to profile leak detection as they should have experience with this. Valgrind should work but it's probably a configuration issue. See: https://wiki.gnome.org/Valgrind It hope this helps. I doubt there is a bug in X11 (it is usually pretty well tested). I would not discount a bug in GTK+. But it is quite likely the bug is in our application proper. Regards, -Vasco Costa original GTK+/GTK+2.0 client port author.
