LinkApp now calls its launch method via the delegate mechanism instead of
via an overridden virtual method. This should make it easier to move the
launch method out of LinkApp and into the GMenu2X main class.
This functionality was half-removed already: some code missing, other
essential parts commented out.
I don't see the point of this either: RGB graphics are created for a certain
gamma value; if that differs from the screen gamma it is up to the application
to do something about it: gamma correct the graphics and/or change the screen
gamma. It doesn't make sense to make this user configurable.
Working directory was only configurable in the ini files, not in the GUI.
Many GP2X/Dingoo applications break if the working directory is changed
because they use relative paths for locating their data files.
I don't see a reason to keep this feature, since I don't know of a realistic
scenario where it would be useful. In any case, the functionality can be
re-created by using a wrapper script to change the working directory based on
a parameter value.
The desired backlight level depends on the amount of light coming in from
the environment, not on the application that is run. Setting the brightness
when launching an application discards what is probably the right value
for this location (indoor/outdoor) and time of day. So we decided that this
is not a desirable feature and therefore removed it.
Although exposing a read/write reference to a private field is not much better than having a public field.
Well, at least we are explicit about the nasty stuff now.
