Version 0.40 changelog:

Fixes:

• PALib support removed.
• Pointer to selected day button in calendar resets to NULL when new month selected; prevents day button incorrectly popping up if same button is clicked in new month.
• Calendar::getPreferredSize() returns valid values.
• Label text is greyed out when disabled.
• Huge speed increase in Calendar::resize().
• Calendar’s child controls correctly fill entire available space.
• Calendar correctly selects date if new day is the same as old day but in a different month.
• Gadget drag event only raised if stylus is actually moved whilst dragging mode active.
• ScrollingPanel drag and scroll events only raised if stylus is actually moved whilst dragging mode active.
• MultiLineTextBox greys out text when disabled.
• MultiLineTextBox::removeText() correctly repositions cursor.
• TextBox greys out text when disabled.
• Scrolltest compiles correctly.
• SimpleScreen and SimpleWindow helper gadgets removed.
• Renamed LinkedList to WoopsiLinkedList and LinkedListIterator to WoopsiLinkedListIterator to avoid type clashing with LinkedList in devkit.
• Tidied up woopsifuncs.h.
• SuperBitmap::getBitmap() returns a pointer to the Bitmap object instead of the Bitmap object’s raw pixel data.
• Moved skinned gadgets out of main library and into bonus folder.
• Removed fatInitDefault() stub method for SDL out of individual .cpp files and into nds.h.
• dimmedscreen.h includes woopsi.h.
• Graphics::drawBitmap() clips correctly if bitmap destination co-ords are greater than the size of the destination bitmap.
• GraphicsPort::drawPixel() clips correctly.
• GraphicsPort::drawXORPixel() clips correctly.
• Replaced DMA_Force and DMA_Copy with woopsiDmaForce() and woopsiDmaCopy() to fix ancient problems with DMA not seeing latest RAM state.

New Features:

• Calendar test added.

• Moved drawing code out of Bitmap class into new Graphics class.
• Added MutableBitmapBase class to define basic interface for an editable bitmap.
• Added FrameBuffer class to wrap framebuffer inside a bitmap class.
• All references to DrawBg array now work with frameBuffer array.
• Added GraphicsUnclipped to perform raw unclipped bitmap drawing.
• GraphicsPort inherits from GraphicsUnclipped in order to reduce code repetition.
