New Release

posted Mar 15, 2009 5:54 PM by Angus Lees
Finally finished putting this release together.

User-visible features include:
  • Completely rewritten graphics to add mouse cursor and trackball
  • Completely rewritten native library handling to work around several Android package manager bugs
  • shift+number turns into F1-F10
  • fixed backspace key
  • fancy compiler trickery to reduce native code size (now ~10MB total size)
You'll see the new library unpacking with a shiny progress bar.  If you have the space, it will cache the (~6MB) library and not unpack it again on later invocations.  The nice thing about the way I'm doing it now is that if Android decides it's running low on internal flash space, it will delete the cached library and free up the space.  So if you see the ScummVM package size change between 10MB and 4MB, that's what's going on.

Sorry for the delay - almost every line of code in this port was rewritten for this release.  Hopefully the improvements will let me roll out future changes more quickly.
