SDK documentation: links to fix, missing/broken/etc
Starting this thread to enumerate issues in the docs that have to be fixed. There is a bunch of these suckers, which is annoyance but more importantly stops in their tracks novices, who are not used to such quirks (example). So let's list them here so they will be fixed... "inshallah".
I'll start with
Please add further your discoveries.
I'll start with
- much rejoicing:
Screensaver documentation is apparently M.I.A., needs to be added to wiki. See viewtopic.php?f=34&t=69276#p439457 - fixed:
roChannelStore, ifGetMessagePort/ifSetMessagePort links are broken - fixed
roTextureManager does not list "Supported Events" (compare). It has associated port (if?etMessagePort) and should point to what it may get. There is at least one event it gets, roTextureRequestEvent - it should be linked from that page. ifMessageDialog fails to mention which methods are not available in fw3. For details, see viewtopic.php?f=34&t=69825#p441250[Would be nice if the documentation mentioned this but Firmware 3.x is deprecated so probably this will not happen - RokuJoel]- Does roTextureManager really maintain LRU cache of resources, flushing the old ones as not to run out of memory (if so should be documented!) - or is it an urban legend? See viewtopic.php?f=34&t=69730#p441106
- fixed Nov'14
roOneLineDialogEvent info seems to mislead on support for buttons, see viewtopic.php?f=34&t=69839 ifListScreen apparently does not support SetBreadcrumbText() in fw3, document it; viewtopic.php?f=34&t=69948
[Again, unlikely that we will address this as fw 3.x is deprecated - RokuJoel]
