say that, and there's no generic replacement at all, then it's rather
pointless.
- simplify parameter initialization (The old code copied from Instrumentation/

The new method is less picky about additional nodes ane outputs less
pointless alerts. If there shall really be a check for that, then
this should be a separate function. But it's nowhere else done in fgfs.

- use SG_LOG instead of cerr
- don't add redundant slashes in SGPath::append()

by compiling fgfs/sg without exception support (unlikely) or linking
against a libSDL/libglut that was compiled/linked without execption

dialog.cxx: add warning message for broken <format>s; cosmetics
- props is easy to mix up with the --prop option (for setting properties)
- the name is unspecific and inconsistent: other option names describe
the protocol -- the way to get the properties. How is, for example,
--httpd less about prop(ertie)s?
- two identical options easily confuse people, as can be seen in The
FlightGear Manual, where --telnet and --props were described differently
/sim/view[*] that it finds. It's not only unnecessary that view definitions
have subsequent indices, but aircraft are now *requested* to use indices
100++. /sim/view[0] .. /sim/view[99] are reserved for the system. (Not

hard-coded.)

because nasal's f_interpolate() may be called in Nasal at times when the
GENERAL subsystem group is being deconstructed; access it by addressing
the group directly, as using globals->get_subsystem() does then not
work any more then; yeah, it's all for a rare border case ... :-)
NasalSys.cxx more robust instead. The reason for the crash was that during
fgfs shutdown destroyed subsystems (GENERAL group) still need Nasal access
(for AI Model destruction listeners), but at that point globals->get_subsystem()
can't even deliver the "nasal" subsystem (INIT group). One way to solve that
problem would have been to replace globals->get_subsystem("nasal") by
globals->get_subsystem_mgr()->get_group(SGSubsystemMgr::INIT)->get_subsystem("nasal"),
but Andy decided to store a pointer to the active "nasal" subsysten in
NasalSys.cxx instead, as the "nasal" subsystem needs to be accessed in
every single Nasal extension function, and multiple "nasal" subsystems are
out of the question, anyway.
we need to explicitly destroy that here, too, so that it has guaranteed
access to the Nasal subsystem. Otherwise we get a segfault on exit. When
the next subsystem needs this special treatement (radar?), we should
introduce a new subsystem group (in addition to INIT and GENERAL)
"FATAL: PUI: No Live Interface! Forgot to call puInit ?"

getAttribute("archive") returns 1 if the attribute is set, and 0 otherwise.
Allow to query and to set all properties by not specifying an attribute
string: getAttribute() returns all attributes bit coded in an integer,
and setAttribute(attr) sets all attributes. No assumptions may be made
about the meaning of the bits -- they can be changed in future fgfs releases.
The only valid use is to compare or set attribute numbers obtained in the
same fgfs run. This is meant for allowing full copies of property branches.
Also add getAttribute query strings "children" for the number of children,
and "alias".

I found a small conspicuity in YASim. The destructor of the fdm was
never called, therefore a modification of the heli fdm (not in cvs) did
not work after reset (I tie some properties and untie them in the
destructor, but the destructor was not called and the tieing failed
after reset. I don't know if any other parts of YASim need their
destructors, at least it wastes memory.
Another small fix I have made to the turbulence.cpp. The code needed,
that (a-floor(a)) is >=0 and <1. This is analytical correct, but
numerical only for "small" values. In normal fg-operation a in this
function is always small, but with unrealistic parameters in the
aircraft config file it is not and then fg crashes (instead a crash of
the aircraft or cataputling it far away).

Generally you want point sprites for performance reasons when enhanced runway
lighting (and smooth points) are activated. Most hardware doesn't
accelerate the rendering of standard smooth points, so without point sprites
you will kill your night time performance if you turn on enhanced runway
lighting.
Note that enhanced runway lighting "breaks" our clever scheme to make the
runway lighting brightness vary with the relative view angle. This means
with enhanced lighting on, all lights are equally bright no matter what
direction you view them from. So perpendicular runways are just as bright
as runways you are directly lined up with (when enhanced runway lighthing
is activated.)
You can revert to the original lighting scheme by turning off enhance runway
lights, turning off distance-attenuation, and turning off point-sprites in
the rendering options menu.

has no children, then a listener is attached. Later, when freeing the
children list, it assumed again that each node without children would
have a listener attached. This caused a crash when a node had children
before, but lost them in the meantime. Now we tried to remove a listener
where there never was one.
with an invalid path, as in getprop("/sim/model/737") or x.getNode("f:1").
Forward sg's error message to the Nasal runtime error function instead, so
you get something like:
Nasal runtime error: name must begin with alpha or '_'
at /home/m/fgfs/Base.local/Nasal/props.nas, line 30
Unfortunately, the location points to the line where the ghost wrapper

*many* years, so the property browser always leaked memory. I activated
this line in property_list.cxx and ... got a crash right there. So this
was the reason for it being commented out? Doing the same for now, until
I know the exact reason and can really fix it.
"Bug Fix - amend the code so that JSBSIm can have more than one tanker in

- backport submissions for plib 1.8.5:
* set slider size correctly
* remove slider/arrow when all entries fit into the view
* don't allow to scroll off the list
Unfortunately, there's no simple way to distinguish them. plib has no
user defined widget classes, and getTypeString() -- which could be used
for that -- isn't virtual. Sigh. I'll discuss the problem on the plib list.
For now I can only offer an ugly workaround. (Don't look closely!)
