Improve grid-module assignment system #7

Closed Dewb closed 5 years ago

Dewb commented 6 years ago

The right-click menu system to assign grids to modules needs work.

Unplugging a real monome’s USB cable while it’s connected to a virtual module can cause a crash.
In some situations, deleting a virtual grid from a patch can cause a crash.
Assigning two modules to the same virtual grid produces unexpected results.

White Whale uses an older version of libavr32, and in monome.c, the setup response length checking code in setup_mext can crash on x86. Update to https://github.com/monome/libavr32/commit/a28466ea37824e039c6aa9584e8ccc109973c772 or https://github.com/monome/libavr32/commit/16074d6bf12ce91ed9828bbe1db33fd9c6986d9e.

Grid connection system has been rewritten to no longer be a pile of hacks, and is much more stable and consistent. setup_mext is libavr32 is now skipped, removing a bunch of failure modes.
