...which itself is obsolete and needs to be redesigned from scratch.
For now we create a local instance of this obsolete PlaybackController
in each viewer panel and we use a static accessor function to just some
instance. Which would break if we start playback with multiple viewer
panels. But we can't anyway, since the Player itself is also a broken
leftover from an obsoleted design study from the early days.
so why care...
Decision was made to use the CoreService as PImpl to organise
all those technical aspects of running the backbone. Thus,
the Nexus (UI-Bus hub) becomes part of CoreService
I worked under the erroneous assumption, that Doxygen
will use its internal entity-IDs as the link-IDs when
generating mardown-links. Yes, this seemed logical and
this would be the way I'd implement it....
But seemingly, Doxygen is not so consistent when it
comes to questions of syntax. The same holds true for
markdown, which lacking a coherent definition anyway.
Another problem is that Doxygen's auto-link generation
frequently fails, for reasons not yet clear to me.
Sometimes it seems to be necessary to give it a nudge
by including the \ref command. While I'm not willing
to go into focussed invstigation of Doxygen syntax
right now, at least I've done a search-and-replace
to remove the malformed links I've written the
last days
the initial draft of this concept is in place now, and
the first round of unit tests pass. I've got some understanding
of the purpose of the interactions and involved elements
and I'm confident this design is evolving in a sane way.
Note: extensive documentation is in the TiddlyWiki,
here I've just pasted and reworded some paragraphs from there
and integrated them into the Doxygen docs
over time, a specific Lumiera code writing style has emerged.
The GUI, as it stood, used somewhat different conventions,
which now have been aligned to the common standard.
Basically we use GNU style, with some adjustments for OO-programming,
we prefer CamelCase, and write TypeNames uppercase, variableNames lowercase
This is the first step towards a generic backbone to connect
any GUI elements to the session within Proc-Layer.
It is based on a spefic understanding of Model-View-Controller,
which turns the Model-Controller interactions into messages.
