[chessx-developer] ChessX 1.6.2

[jens-chessx <jen...@gm...>]

Dear users and developers,

I have updated the setup files for Windows and Mac OS to 1.6.2
This is mainly an update for finally fixing the annoying UTF8 issues that had come up.
But there are a number of new features like loading tournament files from lichess.

I will now start to merge all new features from pull requests so new features should be coming up soon.
Thanks for your patience and thanks for all the help I got with this update!

Some notes:  
For Mac OS I used Qt 6 (Qt 6.5.3) - if you want to compile ChessX yourself and you want to use a newer release of Qt: read the notes here: 
https://sourceforge.net/p/chessx/wiki/ChessX%20and%20Qt6/

The Windows version is still on Qt5 - if you are patient enough to fiddle out all the SSL and zlib issues you could probably switch to Qt6.
I tested ChessX on Ubuntu 22.04 with Qt5 - you could probably transition to Qt6 - but same issues will arise as with Windows.
For a note on SSL take a look under 
https://sourceforge.net/p/chessx/wiki/ChessX%20and%20Linux/

The bugs inside Qt > 6.5.3, 6.6, 6.7 also apply to Windows and Linux - prefer Qt 6.5.3.

If you find any issues in ChessX, give me a note!

Have fun!

Jens

Without explicit information otherwise, I assume the process is something
like

1. Submit pull request
2. Project maintainer provides feedback (accept, reject, or request changes)
3. If changes are requested, make them or discuss
4. Project maintainer merges or closes pull request


> ...or shared agreement...


It's not a democracy. The repository is owned by
https://github.com/Isarhamster, so he will be dictating how things will
proceed.

Re: [chessx-developer] Contribution

[Dave G. <dav...@gm...>]

It seems that at least some review of 101 has already occurred.  Is
there a lack of clarity or shared agreement regarding the next steps
to be taken, and by whom?  If so, then resolving that could allow 101
to make further progress.

[Aaron L. <dar...@gm...>]

I just created https://github.com/Isarhamster/chessx/pull/102 that begins
to address https://sourceforge.net/p/chessx/feature-requests/225/.

https://github.com/Isarhamster/chessx/pull/101 is also awaiting review.

I think I'm going to stop contributing to chessx until these contributions
are accepted or rejected.

[chessx-developer] CR#s?

[Aaron L. <dar...@gm...>]

In the changelog (https://github.com/madnight/chessx/blob/master/ChangeLog),
I see a bunch of "CR#2984375", etc. What are they? I'm guessing CR means
change request, and they look like ticket numbers from a ticket system. But
that's a REALLY high number of tickets!

Specifically, I'm looking at CR#3580030 (mentioned in 7e4997a440f5 (
https://github.com/Isarhamster/chessx/commit/7e4997a440f5) which implements
"human readable" FEN. What is "human readable" FEN? I was hoping CR#3580030
would shed some light on the matter.

I am also running ChessX (1.6.0.0 UNIX64 Qt5.15.11) on Arch Linux (actually Endeavour OS) and I also cannot reproduce this issue.

Kind Regards

That's it? It doesn't matter what position you set up? It doesn't matter whether it's white or black to move? You don't actually have to move the white king anywhere, you just click him, right?

I will try to reproduce this tomorrow.

[chessx-developer] Segmentation fault

[Paul L. <lud...@gm...>]

Hello,
when I setup a position in Chessx a dialog box appear. If I touch the white
king with the pointer of the mouse than Chessx close with a segmentation
fault. It appear in all the Linux distributions I am using except on Odroid
Xu4 with Armbian who tell me instead that it is an illegal position because
I have no white king in the setup diagram. The program and the dialog box
stay open with no segmentation fault.

I am using ArchLinux and Debian and the actual version of Chessx on
ArchLinux is 1.6.0-1 and on Debian stable 1.4.6-2+b1. On Armbian and Debian
testing it is 1.4.6-2+b2. As I told you only on Odroid-Xu4 (armv7) I have
no segmentation fault.

This bug is appearing since a couple years that I am using Chessx. I am a
chess teacher in schools and I like to use Chessx. Is this problem
resolvable? If you need more information please tell me.

[chessx-developer] Welcome

[<ch...@un...>]

Hello Aaron, I am the one you were discussing with on the github PRs.

I use both Windows and Linux, currently debian for simplicity, although 
I'm a slackware fan at heart, arch is of course, also fantastic.

Anyway, the ChessX dev has slowed significantly, although IMO still the 
best opensource Chess tool by a mile.

ChessX has an opening trainer of sorts, but it only plays one variation; 
the mainline.

I am actually in active development on an opening trainer currently, I'd 
be happy to show you.
It is already very functional, and spaced repetition is actually 
currently under development, too.

Perhaps email me directly to avoid cluttering up the dev list:

Unleo.com is the domain, chess is the username.

[chessx-developer] Introduction

[Aaron L. <dar...@gm...>]

In strict accordance with
https://sourceforge.net/p/chessx/mailman/chessx-developer/thread/200610171321.11325.mrudolf%40kdewebdev.org/,
I am interested in development! I like chess, and I'm a software developer
by day. I use GNU/Linux (arch linux specifically), and it looks like chessx
and SCID pretty much run the market here. I've used SCID a bit and it seems
to work pretty well, but when it comes to development, I like C++ a lot.
(I've also started getting excited about Rust...)

The feature that actually made me `git clone` is opening training. I think
it would be nice if the trainer would keep track of my progress learning
openings and use spaced repetition to help 1) learn and 2) retain opening
lines, sort of like anki https://apps.ankiweb.net/.

I just created pull requests 94, 95, 96, 97 which cause me not to be able
to compile on my machine. It looks like there may be other ways of fixing
these particular issues in other pull requests, so maybe they will be
closed as "already fixed" some day! The nature of the fixes in my PRs
suggest that development on this project may be using different technology
than me (older or newer versions of QT or C++??). I just did `mkdir build
&& cd build && qmake && make -j 20`, but if I should be doing something
else, please let me know!

Talk to you soon!

[chessx-developer] Problems with ChessXsource/my actions with it for Windows

[chessenthusiast <che...@pr...>]

Hi everyone,

As a stable version of ChessX for Windows still has issues with tablebases and so on, I decided to use the latest source code to build up ChessX from it.

Technical information: system Windows 10; QT version 5.15.2; build-up kit MinGW 8.1 64 bit

First problem after qmake/ make chessx.pro actions was with some dll. Some were always missing, then when added manually "..No QT platform plugin could be initialized. error" It was annoying, but then I figured out windeployqt.exe that comes with MinGW fixes these errors easily.

Finally, chess.exe is ready to go and has all folders coming with it, but...

- I was initially unable to find the "data" folder normally. In the stable version of ChessX this one is coming together with all other folders and you can find "database", "engines" subfolders in it, but not in this case. "Data" folder for some reason gets installed to AppData/Local and has only "lang" subfolder in it
- I don't know is it a bug or I do something wrong, but I can't adjust engine settings Mr. Jens Nissen recommended to change via

m_engine

=

EngineX

::

newEngine

(

index

);

ui

.

vpcount-

>

setEnabled

(

m_engine-

>

providesMpv

());

ui

.

label-

>

setEnabled

(

m_engine-

>

providesMpv

());

if

(!

m_engine-

>

providesMpv

())

{

ui.vpcount->setValue(1)

;

}

to

m_engine

=

EngineX

::

newEngine

(

index

);

ui

.

vpcount-

>

setEnabled

(

m_engine-

>

providesMpv

());

ui

.

vpcount-

>

setValue

(

m_engine-

>

defaultMpv

());

ui

.

label-

>

setEnabled

(

m_engine-

>

providesMpv

());

I did that in analysiswidget.cpp, but engine still shows only 1 analysis line as a default despite being adjusted to 2. Then I changed code to

ui.vpcount->setValue(2)

;

but it still opens engine with a single analysis line only. I ask to help me with understanding what I am doing wrong

-

This one and next ones are already not about code, but about potential improvements. Is there some way to build up an indexed tree for a big database? Because I have databases with a few hundred thousands of chess games. Database takes long to get opened, then on each move it builds a tree from scratch, not excluding the games are already not applicable. Chessbase, SCID, Arena all have extremely fast trees, it could be great to have a fast one in ChessX as well. Or maybe, it's already present? Do I miss something? Because, lichess.book in ChessX is extremely fast despite having millions of games in it

-

There is some problem with ctg. Chessbase trees are not opened with ChessX on my computer. I create trees via Chessbase reader. Yes, there are temporary trees, but there's a way to create a stable ctg. tree there with all ctg. ctb. cto. But neither stable, nor source code version manage to open those. As CB reader is a freeware, maybe stable trees created by it are actually different from those created by commercial CB version. But it's still strange as those are not temporary. Maybe some advice?

-

Also, it could be great to have a possibility to adjust some simpler shortcuts. As far as I understood from the mainwindow.cpp shortcut should always contain system key (like CTRL) and some usual letter key. For instance, I tried to make shortcuts for drawing arrows/circles identical to Chessbase, but I failed, it didn't allow me to make green color simple ALT as in CB, yellow CTRL + ALT, etc.

Sorry for a long message. Also, I apologize, if some things I wrote were dumb from technical point of view, I am not a programmer, just an avid chess player, who really likes ChessX
I hope for your help

Have a nice day all

[chessx-developer] Request to engage on a survey for optimizing the design for User Experience in the development process of ChessX

[Phesto P. N. <phe...@go...>]

 Hello Members

We are currently conducting a study that aims to optimise User Experience
(UX) in the development processes of Free and Open-source software (FOSS),
including ChessX. This study believes that delivering projects of this
nature with desirable UX is an organisational effort. Therefore, precisely
comprehending what make FOSS projects with desirable UX, integrating them
in the development processes, and optimally assessing these processes are
mandatory.

UX is still ambiguous and what create several FOSS projects with desirable
UX are still unknown. Moreover, although these projects offer immense
contributions, they are not widely adopted, and UX is recurring as the
significant cause of ongoing adoptions misfortune. The FOSS community has
not done enough to address these challenges. Therefore, to dig deeper into
this problem, we have developed a questionnaire with several UX influencing
factors seeking FOSS stakeholders' perceptions.

The developed questionnaire provides evidence rather than opinions when
capturing insights into how stakeholders in the FOSS community perceive UX
influencing factors. Furthermore, it is the derivative of several
psychometric scales, such as AttrakDiff, VisAWI, SUS, UEQ, meCUE, and
reviewed literature.
We kindly request that the network feel free and offer candid feedback by
completing the appraisal in the link shown below.

[Narutocraft XD <nar...@gm...>]

Hello, I would like assistance, to obtain the original language file. To be
able to translate it.
I have the "QT creator (Community)"; I wonder if it is the IDE that I need
to do the translation?
Thanks.
Great Software.

[chessx-developer] Non avrei mai pensato che potesse essere possibile!

Re: [chessx-developer] Text in angle brackets in comments is not displayed

[Fex X. <fs...@gm...>]

Thanks for responding to my email. Let me clarify a few things from my last
email. The issue was that text in a move comment displayed in angle
brackets was not displayed in the game browser.

1. These are not XML tags. They are also not HTML tags. This is ordinary
ASCII text in which some strings are enclosed in angle brackets. They
should be displayed like any other ASCII text comment. It is clear these
cannot be HTML or XML tags. For one thing, there is no end tag!

2. I did not mean to suggest that CQL is embedded into a comment. CQL is
distributed with a sample PGN database, used in the CQL examples for
documentation. The sample database CQL uses in its documentation can be
downloaded here: http://www.gadycosteff.com/cql/pgn/sample.pgn . That PGN
file (mainly excerpts from the Heijden database) has examples of comments
containing angle brackets.

To clarify, my request is this: display the text of a comment.

(Obviously, if ChessX makes exception for text enclosed in HTML tags, that
is fine. That does not apply in this case. These strings are obviously not
HTML and so they should be displayed as normal text).

I believe this is the intent of the PGN specification, which allows ASCII
text in comments. The Heijden PGN database has been under development for
over 20 years and displays fine in ChessBase, HiArcs and probably others.
We do not want a situation where a conformant, ASCII, PGN file looks fine
in some PGN viewers but in which comments are invisible in other PGN
viewers. That is confusing for users and database creators.

Re: [chessx-developer] Text in angle brackets in comments is not displayed

[jens-chessx <jen...@gm...>]

We are correctly handling XML- and HTML-Tags, for example <i>Important move</i>.
But this is probably the problem - you have your own XML-Tags inside comments which should trigger different behaviour.
For my understanding: what is the idea of embedding CQL into a comment? Should ChessX trigger a CQL-Query once it finds such a comment, for example, when displaying a move with a CQL-command, display a button which executes the command?
I can’t see any samples on the Heidjen study database - what tags is Heidjen using and which intention does this database have with XML?
BTW: the comment editor below the board shows the <thisshoulddisplay> tag, only the game browser does not show it.
We are currently redesigning the game browser, so changes might be coming!
