| 7532 | - no center pattern can jump down to or along the second line | |
| 7533 | - revision to the endgame patterns according to docs/ENDGAME | |
| 7534 | - detect_trap_helper looks for moves attacking two groups at once | |
| 7535 | - some other tuning | |
| 7536 | - evaluate_game removed from the distribution | |
| 7537 | - semeai will not recommend a move which leads to an immediate loss | |
| 7538 | - bugfix in semeai: bestlib was not getting updated | |
| 7539 | ||
| 7540 | 2.3.21 released May 27, 1999 | |
| 7541 | ||
| 7542 | - Empty corner play moved to src/fuseki.c (new) and reimplemented | |
| 7543 | - Embryos for 3-4, 3-3, 5-3, and 5-4 joseki databases in patterns/*.sgf | |
| 7544 | - option -m [level] for debugging moyos | |
| 7545 | - docs/EYES revised | |
| 7546 | - bugfix in urgent_connect_helper | |
| 7547 | - pattern revisions | |
| 7548 | ||
| 7549 | 2.3.20 released May 26, 1999 | |
| 7550 | ||
| 7551 | - readlad2 now tries backfilling. readlad2 and attack return 2 if | |
| 7552 | a backfill is found but no direct attacking move | |
| 7553 | - new patterns | |
| 7554 | - use of macros to simplify helpers | |
| 7555 | - trymove: sgf --decidestring now gives more information | |
| 7556 | - solves errors when MAX_DILAT != MOY_DILAT | |
| 7557 | - now the area ownership uses 4 dilation, which seems better. | |
| 7558 | - docs/ENDGAME added from Gunnar's email of May 18, 1999 | |
| 7559 | ||
| 7560 | 2.3.19 released May 24, 1999 | |
| 7561 | ||
| 7562 | - edge block/expand patterns reordered | |
| 7563 | - tuning | |
| 7564 | - a new joseki | |
| 7565 | - a new helper | |
| 7566 | - Move evaluate_game functionality into play_test.c | |
| 7567 | - It is now main.c that loads the sgf file into a tree. | |
| 7568 | - If no playmode / testmode is supplied, look for a comment | |
| 7569 | of the form C[testmode=...] in the root node. If found, | |
| 7570 | this sets the playmode / testmode. | |
| 7571 | - Other interface fns take the tree, rather than filename, as param. | |
| 7572 | - testmode is now a local variable, passed as param into play_test, | |
| 7573 | rather than setting into global state via set_testmode / get_testmode | |
| 7574 | - Move the tests for acceptable sgf file (GM[1]FF[3/4]) into the | |
| 7575 | sgf reader, rather than in the user of the tree. | |
| 7576 | - bugfix in hane_backfill_helper | |
| 7577 | - semeai now attacks dragons of low vitality | |
| 7578 | - semeai tries a little harder to choose a smart liberty | |
| 7579 | ||
| 7580 | 2.3.18 released May 23, 1999 | |
| 7581 | ||
| 7582 | - break_chain() and break_chain2() return 2 if saving move can be taken | |
| 7583 | - savestone2() and find_defense() try harder not to make self-atari | |
| 7584 | - find_defense() now considers tenuki | |
| 7585 | - forgot to initialize adjsize and adjlib in chainlinks() | |
| 7586 | ||
| 7587 | 2.3.17 released May 23, 1999 | |
| 7588 | ||
| 7589 | - Complete reordering and some tuning of the fuseki patterns. | |
| 7590 | - A little tuning elsewhere. | |
| 7591 | - Documentation of the new features in the patterns.db format. | |
| 7592 | - The -m option enhanced with another board with delta_moyo values. | |
| 7593 | - chainlinks test now in basicnet3 | |
| 7594 | - delta_terri(int ti, int tj,int color) : the same as delta_moyo(), | |
| 7595 | but against the 5/21 evaluation | |
| 7596 | - area ownership evaluation (using 5/0 algo), with wrapper functions : | |
| 7597 | area_stone(int m,int n), area_space(int m,int n) | |
| 7598 | area_color(int m,int n), area_tag(int m,int n) | |
| 7599 | set_area_tag(int m,int n,int tag) | |
| 7600 | - the values are computed during make_moyo evaluation, use | |
| 7601 | "gnugo -m" to see how area are evaluated. | |
| 7602 | - bugfix in play_test.c | |
| 7603 | ||
| 7604 | 2.3.16 released May 22, 1999 | |
| 7605 | ||
| 7606 | - Wind assistance complemented by moyo assistance. | |
| 7607 | - Move dependent randomness replaced by pattern dependent randomness. | |
| 7608 | - Format of patterns.db changed to accomodate new features mentioned above. | |
| 7609 | - One new joseki line. | |
| 7610 | - Jump out patterns retuned. They may still be somewhat out of tune | |
| 7611 | but in a new and different way. Or maybe they even work quite well. | |
| 7612 | - Some tuning of fuseki patterns. | |
| 7613 | - Caching of upower and mypower values from testwind. | |
| 7614 | - Some functions moved from matchpat.c to shapes.c. | |
| 7615 | ||
| 7616 | 2.3.15 released May 22, 1999 | |
| 7617 | ||
| 7618 | - board-setup nodes were being ignored in test-mode | |
| 7619 | - fixes a bug where moves annotated as bad (MA[]) were reported as good. | |
| 7620 | - took ascii_showboard out of play_test.c. | |
| 7621 | - end_sgfdump() tries to pop the stack before closing the file | |
| 7622 | - DEPTH ramped all the way up to 10, the new reading code is so fast | |
| 7623 | - evaluation of moves is moved to break_chain and break_chain2 | |
| 7624 | - simplification of readlad1, readlad2, savestone2, find_defense and basicnet3 | |
| 7625 | - a few annotated games against David Fotland's XGO added to regression/ | |
| 7626 | ||
| 7627 | 2.3.14 released May 21, 1999 | |
| 7628 | ||
| 7629 | - documentational changes to helpers.c | |
| 7630 | - minor changes in patterns.db | |
| 7631 | - all jump_out_helper patterns changed to weight 60 for moyo heuristics | |
| 7632 | - jump_out_helper() modified to use moyo heuristics | |
| 7633 | - new function delta_moyo() run quite fastly, using the cache as proposed. | |
| 7634 | the result of this function go in global variables : | |
| 7635 | moyo_test[WHITE],moyo_test[BLACK] and the difference from precedent | |
| 7636 | moyo evaluation is in moyo_test[0] | |
| 7637 | delta_moyo returns what is expected : the difference from point of view | |
| 7638 | of "color" player, aka moyo_test[0] | |
| 7639 | the same for moyo_eval[3] and terri_eval[3] | |
| 7640 | so all the results are availables for later use. | |
| 7641 | (see sources for details) | |
| 7642 | - used #defines for the variables 5/21 and 5/10 (can be 4/10 too), see liberty.h | |
| 7643 | ||
| 7644 | ||
| 7645 | 2.3.13 released May 20, 1999 | |
| 7646 | ||
| 7647 | - further revisions to ttsgf_read.c regarding file buffering | |
| 7648 | - tuning, new patterns, helpers, half eye patterns | |
| 7649 | ||
| 7650 | 2.3.12 released May 20, 1999 | |
| 7651 | ||
| 7652 | - tuning | |
| 7653 | - ttsgf_read.c: changed | |
| 7654 | ||
| 7655 | 2.3.11 released May 19, 1999 | |
| 7656 | ||
| 7657 | - reading.c from 2.3.8 is restored | |
| 7658 | - MAX_FILE_BUFFER increased to 150000 in ttsgf_read.c | |
| 7659 | - tuning and a new joseki | |
| 7660 | - hide most of liberty.h from non-src/ code. | |
| 7661 | - src/ and patterns/ define BUILDING_GNUGO_ENGINE, | |
| 7662 | and are therefore allowed to see all the internal | |
| 7663 | symbols. Otherwise, code just sees a few functions, | |
| 7664 | and sees 'const' versions of the variables. | |
| 7665 | - (liberty.h defines a macro PUBLIC_VARIABLE which expands | |
| 7666 | to extern for engine source files, and extern const | |
| 7667 | for others) | |
| 7668 | - *NOTE* : we get many warnings about const violations, | |
| 7669 | where other modules write to these variables. In particular, | |
| 7670 | ascii_showboard makes temporary changes to p[][]. | |
| 7671 | But it still compiles (with gcc at least). These interface | |
| 7672 | violations were always there. Now they are visible. | |
| 7673 | - Moved remove_string() and count_territory() from play_ascii | |
| 7674 | into src/utils : these need to be part of the engine | |
| 7675 | since they have intimate access to the state. | |
| 7676 | - Did a bit of gratuitous changes with play_test.c | |
| 7677 | No functionality changes. | |
| 7678 | - lost get_*_a and put_*_a interface functions. | |
| 7679 | - make_dragons() is no longer predicated on movenum, but | |
| 7680 | on existence of worms. | |
| 7681 | - potential_moves[][] is now taken seriously : genmove() | |
| 7682 | clears it at the start of the move cycle, rather than | |
| 7683 | having sgf_move_made() clear it at some random time | |
| 7684 | after genmove has returned. | |
| 7685 | - semeai criterion slightly changed: my dragon.vitality<0 | |
| 7686 | and your dragon.status==DEAD. | |
| 7687 | ||
| 7688 | 2.3.10 released May 18, 1999 | |
| 7689 | ||
| 7690 | - hane_backfill_helper deprecated | |
| 7691 | - semeai module now consults vitality field to initiate fighting | |
| 7692 | - test mode did not pass movenum to engine code: fixed. | |
| 7693 | did away with the game_info entries for boardsize and move_number, | |
| 7694 | made the interface use the engine's global variables instead. | |
| 7695 | Better solution is needed (see TODO) | |
| 7696 | ||
| 7697 | 2.3.9 released May 17, 1999 | |
| 7698 | ||
| 7699 | - play_solo.c: in load_sgf_file() we now use global movenum instead of mv | |
| 7700 | - play_solo.c: white stones were loading as black (fixed) | |
| 7701 | - new helpers, tuning, revisions to pattern database | |
| 7702 | - mkpat.c: maxwt now takes bonus into account | |
| 7703 | - reading.c: break_chain2 simplified | |
| 7704 | ||
| 7705 | 2.3.8 released May 17, 1999 | |
| 7706 | ||
| 7707 | - backfill.sgf added to regression/ | |
| 7708 | - color added to moyo.c | |
| 7709 | - bugfix in moyo.c: captures were counted backwards | |
| 7710 | - BOUZY added to docs/ | |
| 7711 | - bugfix in sente_hane_helper | |
| 7712 | - joseki patterns are now type 's' | |
| 7713 | - fix the board_size bug in test mode | |
| 7714 | - reimplement load_sgf_file() in terms of the sgf parser : gives us | |
| 7715 | ability to read multiple AB[][]... for free | |
| 7716 | - move load_sgf_file and load_and_analyse_sgf_file from sgf/ into | |
| 7717 | interface. (Currently play_solo.c but that's temporary.) | |
| 7718 | Justification is that these fns have more to do with the engine | |
| 7719 | than with sgf files. | |
| 7720 | - put in the emacs variable blocks into some of the files | |
| 7721 | - remove some extern refs from .c files - according to David | |
| 7722 | this is a bad practise | |
| 7723 | - Remove a few remaining // comments, and disable // comments in | |
| 7724 | GNUGO_SOME_WARNINGS | |
| 7725 | - Reorganise the --help page, and add long options for most of the | |
| 7726 | short ones. The --help is modelled after gnu tar. | |
| 7727 | - Some files had #define _NO_PROTO to hide getopt() prototype, but | |
| 7728 | these files were not doing option parsing, so assume this is redundant. | |
| 7729 | - interface game_info structure was used only in interface.c, so | |
| 7730 | moved the structure defn out of a public header file | |
| 7731 | - The ttsgf_read.c code only offered to parse an sgf file which had | |
| 7732 | already been read into a buffer. Moved a code fragment which appeared | |
| 7733 | in two places to load the file then parse it into a readsgffile() | |
| 7734 | function. | |
| 7735 | - Prefixed all the symbols for long option names with OPT_, and mode | |
| 7736 | names with MODE_to avoid namespace clashes. (DECIDE_STRING was being | |
| 7737 | used as a mode and an option.) | |
| 7738 | ||
| 7739 | 2.3.7 released May 15, 1999 | |
| 7740 | ||
| 7741 | - Jerome's moyo mode (-m option) | |
| 7742 | - new patterns and helpers, including backfill patterns CD47 and CD48 | |
| 7743 | - reading.c: trysafe in readlad2 has been removed | |
| 7744 | - reading.c: in savestone2 if stackp==0 we first try to capture | |
| 7745 | - a surrounding string. This would lead to thrashing if we tried | |
| 7746 | - it at deeper levels | |
| 7747 | - reading.c: bug fix in find_defense (Gunnar) | |
| 7748 | - reading.c: in break_chain2 we omit harder attacks if string has | |
| 7749 | - 3 liberties since this causes too many errors. | |
| 7750 | - reading.c: in basicnet3 we test a little more the attack really works | |
| 7751 | ||
| 7752 | 2.3.6 released May 15, 1999 | |
| 7753 | ||
| 7754 | - bug fixes in patterns/ | |
| 7755 | ||
| 7756 | 2.3.5 released May 14, 1999 | |
| 7757 | ||
| 7758 | - tuning, new helper | |
| 7759 | - initialization in src/evaluate_game.c and interface/play_test.c | |
| 7760 | ||
| 7761 | 2.3.4 released May 13, 1999 | |
| 7762 | ||
| 7763 | - Nils' changes to main.c and src/Makefile.am | |
| 7764 | - tuning, joseki revisions, new helper wedge_helper | |
| 7765 | ||
| 7766 | 2.3.3 released May 12, 1999 | |
| 7767 | ||
| 7768 | - find_weak eschewed in find_defense | |
| 7769 | - change to allow build in a directory other than source | |
| 7770 | - braces to joseki.c to avoid a warning about dangling else | |
| 7771 | - added --testmode game to analyze games and see if it considered the moves | |
| 7772 | - added docs/structure.doc describing program structure and APIs | |
| 7773 | ||
| 7774 | 2.3.2 released May 12, 1999 | |
| 7775 | ||
| 7776 | - missing library files restored in utils/Makefile.am | |
| 7777 | - tuning, invasion under hoshi joseki | |
| 7778 | - and a cosmetic bug fix in shapes.c. | |
| 7779 | - patterns for endgame ko | |
| 7780 | - bugfix in double_attack patterns | |
| 7781 | ||
| 7782 | 2.3.1 released May 11, 1999 | |
| 7783 | ||
| 7784 | - Joseki compiler and beginnings of a Joseki database | |
| 7785 | - some tuning | |
| 7786 | - Tweak sgf/Makefile.am to write generated sgf_properties to $(srcdir)/ | |
| 7787 | note : this generates a warning at automake, but I think it is benign. | |
| 7788 | - remove the GCC_OPTS from the Makefile.am's, and replace with either | |
| 7789 | @GNUGO_SOME_WARNINGS@ or @GNUGO_ALL_WARNINGS@. | |
| 7790 | This means we can centralise the choice of which warnings we enable, | |
| 7791 | rather than having to duplicate the list of warnings in each component. | |
| 7792 | - Add code to configure.in to generate the above. ALL_WARNINGS switches off use | |
| 7793 | of // comments (via -Wp,-lang-c89 which runs preprocesser in ansi mode). | |
| 7794 | SOME_WARNINGS will do the same once all components have been cleaned up. | |
| 7795 | SOME_WARNINGS is intended for code over which we don't have full control (eg gmp.c) | |
| 7796 | and so we have to be more liberal in the diagnostics. | |
| 7797 | - Removed from the build some of the stuff in utils/ which we do not (currently) use. | |
| 7798 | - fixed clear_board() bug that caused segfaults | |
| 7799 | - fixed game parameter handling in main() to use interface API | |
| 7800 | - updated other interfaces to partially use interface API (no more | |
| 7801 | passing from main!) | |
| 7802 | - removed // comments where they were not needed | |
| 7803 | They stil are in the tt* code, that needs to be revisited!! | |
| 7804 | - patched sgfgen to use stdin and stdout- makes things easier | |
| 7805 | ||
| 7806 | 2.1.25 released May 10, 1999 | |
| 7807 | ||
| 7808 | - added --decidestring option for sgf debugging reading code | |
| 7809 | - added regression directory: contains a few example test files | |
| 7810 | - added --quiet option | |
| 7811 | - added --testmode option: move, annotation, or both | |
| 7812 | This allows some flexibility in handling differently annotated files | |
| 7813 | - added --infile and --outfile options | |
| 7814 | - wrote play_test to handle regression testing | |
| 7815 | - wrote sgfgen, a program to translate SGF definitions into a header file | |
| 7816 | - added Tommy Thorn's code for SGF parsing and implemented tree parsing | |
| 7817 | - updated ASCII interface to rely on interface routines- it works! | |
| 7818 | - updated interfaces to handle new 'pass' based on int returned from genmove | |
| 7819 | - made genmove return boardsize, boardsize coordinates for pass | |
| 7820 | - added interface specification and code-- we now have engine independence! | |
| 7821 | - moved all SGF code into sgf directory | |
| 7822 | ||
| 7823 | 2.1.23 released May 7, 1999 | |
| 7824 | ||

| 7829 | - renum target removed from pattern Makefile.am and Makefile.in | |
| 7830 | - strategic_distance was being calculated incorrectly | |
| 7831 | - revisions to pattern database | |
| 7832 | - chainlinks now tabulates the size of adjacent worms in preparation | |
| 7833 | to trying to sorting them when stackp<depth | |
| 7834 | - split out play_solo() into play_solo.c | |
| 7835 | - moved interface routines (play*, gmp*, sgf*) into interfaces/ directory | |
| 7836 | - combined play*.h into interface.h | |
| 7837 | - renamed 'lib' directory to 'utils' to be consistent with other dir names | |
| 7838 | - moved AUTOMAKE.README into docs | |
| 7839 | ||

| 7844 | - fixes a typo in helpers.c | |
| 7845 | - fixes some hard-wired 18's in make_worms() | |
| 7846 | - fixes what I believe to be a bug in scoping in make_worms | |
| 7847 | - gratuitously moves some variable declarations around in make_worms | |
| 7848 | - moved pattern files to patterns directory | |
| 7849 | - pattern files and functions are now linked in as a library: libpatterns | |
| 7850 | ||
| 7851 | 2.1.20 released May 5, 1999 | |
| 7852 | ||

| 7857 | ||
| 7858 | - removed #include "../lib/getopt.h" from play_ascii.c - not needed | |
| 7859 | - added some code to better handle config.h to main.c and play_ascii.c | |
| 7860 | - added ascii_showboard() before the counting starts, useful after 'play 999' | |
| 7861 | - added --mode option to main.c | |
| 7862 | - changed how different play modes are started: now using switch() | |
| 7863 | - removed -g option: use --mode instead | |
| 7864 | - changed MAX_BOARD to 25 in liberty.h: try some bigger games! | |
| 7865 | - changed sgf 'pass' to [tt] if boardsize>19, else [] (by SGF standard) | |
| 7866 | - changed 'pass' moves to send board_size, board_size to sgf routines | |
| 7867 | ||
| 7868 | 2.1.18 released May 3, 1999 | |
| 7869 | ||
| 7870 | - play_ascii: playblack and playwhite are recognized as valid commands. | |
| 7871 | - play_ascii: Correct use of strtok on Solaris (missing strsep) | |
| 7872 | - ascii display and showboard now work as stated in the help command | |
| 7873 | - ascii display doesn't draw the board twice if showboard is enabled. | |
| 7874 | - ascii force was broken, is no longer. | |
| 7875 | - added check for getopt.h to configure.in | |
