  Preface

  .... what? It has been two months again? Wow, time flies fast. Anyway, here's the fifth alpha release!

  ✨ Highlights ✨

  • internal engine access
  • rewritten DependencyResolver#resolve method, which now works properly
  • no busy-waiting anymore! all threads now call Thread#onSpinWait
  • renamed the graphics subsystem to windowing including GLFW, removed OpenGL and Vulkan APIs

  Added

  • cool Forgejo stuff: Issue templates and working CI/CD
  • option which now fails javadoc generation when a warning is issued
  • EngineInternals class, which allows access to internal parts of the engine with the ability to restrict access
  • EngineState.EARLY_STARTUP
  • InitLogger class, which is responsible for providing a simple logging infrastructure when the normal one isn't available
  • PrintStreamService class, which provides PrintStreams for printing log messages
  • Java version check
  • safety shutdown hook, which ensures the engine is shut down properly even when Runtime#exit or System#exit is called
  • the Logger now supports printing newlines nicely
  • ListFormatter's functionality has finally been implemented. It only took three months
  • EngineInformation#getJavaSource and #getJavaTarget methods, which provide the java version of the source code and what version it was compiled against respectively
  • ability to control test execution. See the README

  Removed

  • StackTraceParser. It's functionality has been migrated to Miscellaneous
  • @SuppressWarnings("unused") from almost everything (why was this even in the source from day one?!)
  • the UnexpectedThrowableException has been yeeted. Why not use Exception or Throwable instead, it works just as fine
  • removed the OpenGL and Vulkan subsystems as the graphics subsystem is now the windowing subsystem
  • unused CompatibilityLogger#log method

  Changed

  • copyright notice in source files
  • removed classpath exception
  • packages were moved (for example, sosengine.classes -> sosengine.implementable)
  • renamed logger implementations to logging adapters
  • moved logging thread code out of the Logger class into the separate LoggingThread class
  • testing infrastructure into separate gradle subproject
  • testing infrastructure can now be downloaded via maven and used by projects using the engine
  • moved shutdown handlers to new EngineInternals class
  • renamed some classes to more meaningful names
  • the UnmetDependenciesException class now uses @NotNull List<@NotNull String> instead of @NotNull Map<@NotNull DependencyVector, @NotNull String for storing unmet dependency errors
  • all threads no longer busy wait, but instead call Thread#onSpinWait, which allows the CPU to do other stuff while our thread is sleeping
  • the logging thread can now be restarted
  • rewrote how the Logger replaces placeholders
  • tests now work a bit differently, see TestBase before the testing infrastructure move
  • updated the "Javadoc" and "Welcome" documentation pages
  • renamed the graphics subsystem to the windowing subsystem including GLFW

  Fixed

  • the ansi shortcode converter no longer toggles attributes
  • DependencyResolver jank. It now works and resolves dependencies properly (which was a nightmare to implement), though DependencyResolver#getOrder still does not work (will likely work in the next one or two alpha releases)
  • multiple shutdowns running in parallel. A simple check was enough for that
  • inaccurate VersioningSystem#compare API documentation
  • of course, API documentation. Every release, period
