Yes that is probably needed, I though I had put that in or something
similar. regardless of that it will update at the top of the next minute.
And once the watchdog has triggered the boolean value does not reset
very quickly. Perhaps there isn't a status message being sent without
some other action? The message aggregator doesn't show status messages.
This is related to my initial comments on you proposal for a new status
flag. I do not want to put more code into the event filter where the
watchdog count gets reset as this code is called for every Qt event for
every widget. Likewise the sending of lots of UDP status messages is
problematic even though they are screened for duplicates. I will do some
experiments with sending a prompt status message when the watchdog gets
reset and see what the impact is.
I let the timeout occur...and then it would reset all by itself and
timeout again. That watchdog timeout in the status message is
disassociated from the other one in the GUI. I've got a WAV file I
play on timeout right now and it's not getting triggered other than
the 1st time.
Yes, the dissociation you are seeing is due to the lack of a watchdog
reset status message via UDP. I took the view that any action in WSJT-X
that would cause a transmission would itself create a UDP status message
and bring all listeners back into sync. Can you explain a use case where
that is not so?
We need to be careful here not to over analyse the visible
representation, I suspect in real use it will "just work" and no one
will notice a few minor discrepancies that might have a large
performance cost to resolve.
