||
## v0.1.6 (2026-06-29)
|
||
|
||
### uinput-First Injection
|
||
|
||
- **Injection priority reversed**: uinput (`/dev/uinput`) is now the primary injection backend on X11, with X11 XTest as fallback. uinput sends evdev keycodes that route correctly through libinput — no X11 keycode offset needed.
|
||
- **X11 XTest keycode fix**: X11 injector was sending evdev keycodes directly to `XTestFakeKeyEvent`, which expects X11 keycodes (evdev + 8). Backspace sent keycode 14 (evdev) = X11 keycode 14 = "5" key. Fixed by adding +8 offset in all `send_keycode` paths.
|
||
- **`paste_via_clipboard()` backspace fixed**: was hardcoded to X11 keycode 14 (actually "5"), now uses evdev 14 + 8 = 22 (correct X11 backspace).
|
||
|
||
### Window-Switch Detection
|
||
|
||
- **Active window ID verified on every keystroke**: removed the `gap > 100ms` guard — the daemon now polls `xdotool`/`xprop` directly for every character keypress. This catches window switches that complete in under 100ms, preventing old engine buffer from leaking into the new window.
|
||
|
||
### Input Method
|
||
|
||
- **Telex disabled in tray**: greyed out with "(next version)" label and `Disposition::Informative`. Only VNI is functional.
|
||
- **Default input method changed** from `"telex"` to `"vni"` in config fallback.
|
||
|
||
### Packaging
|
||
|
||
- **Flatpak and AppImage removed**: only `.deb` packaging is maintained. `packaging/flatpak/` and `packaging/appimage/` directories deleted.
|
||
- **Postinst improvements**: removes stale `/usr/local/bin/vietc*` binaries, deletes old `~/.config/vietc/config.toml` + `overrides.toml` + `.first-launch-done`, shows logout popup (notify-send + zenity).
|
||
- **CI workflow**: only `.deb` artifact collected (no AppImage).

## v0.1.5 (2026-06-29)
|
||
|
||
### Window-Switch Engine Reset
|
||
- **Engine state now clears on window switch** — when Alt+Tab'ing between apps, the composition buffer is properly reset before the next keystroke. Previously, keystrokes could still apply Vietnamese tone/mark rules across app boundaries, producing corrupted text.
|
||
- **`last_key_time` only on character key presses** — modifier-only events (Alt, Ctrl, Shift) no longer update the gap timer, so the 100 ms inline xprop poll fires reliably after every window switch, regardless of held modifiers.
|
||
|
||
### Active Window Detection
|
||
- **xprop fallback** — `get_active_window_id()` tries `xdotool` first, falls back to `xprop -root _NET_ACTIVE_WINDOW` (preinstalled `x11-utils`). Works under sudo even when xdotool is absent.
|
||
|
||
### Code Cleanup
|
||
- **Removed ~400 lines of dead unsafe code** — entire X11 clipboard shared-state block (unsafe statics, manual Xlib dlopen, SelectionRequest handling) was unused and has been deleted. All related `#[warn(dead_code)]` and `#[warn(static_mut_refs)]` warnings eliminated.
|
||
- **Engine dead code removed** — unused methods `is_empty`, `is_tone_or_mark_key`, `process_string`, `last_base_char`, `apply_cluster_mark`, `apply_mark` in `BambooEngine`; `RuleEffect` enum and `special_rules` field in `InputMethodRules`.
|
||
- **Production logging** — per-key `eprintln!` removed from evdev loop and uinput paste path. Only startup/error/window-change messages remain (`log_info` to both stderr and file).
|
||
|
||
### Flatpak Build & System Tray
|
||
- **System tray** (`vietc-tray` using ksni/DBus StatusNotifier) is now built and included in the Flatpak bundle. The tray launches the daemon and shows Vietnamese/English mode.
|
||
- **Desktop menu entry** — the app now appears when searching **"Viet+"** in the application menu. Search, launch, or uninstall from there.
|
||
- **Flatpak command** changed from `vietc-daemon` to `vietc-tray` (the tray spawns the daemon).
|
||
- **Tray fixes for Flatpak** — `find_sibling_binary()` now tries `{name}-daemon` fallback; `is_daemon_running()` checks both `vietc` and `vietc-daemon` process names.
|
||
- **Fixed `mkdir -p`** — `build-flatpak.sh` now creates `/app/share/applications` before installing the desktop file.
|
||
|
||
### Active Window Detection (Flatpak fix)
|
||
- **Native X11 `_NET_ACTIVE_WINDOW` query** via `dlopen("libX11.so.6")` — added as third fallback in `get_active_window_id()`. Works inside the Flatpak sandbox where `xdotool`/`xprop` are unavailable. No subprocess, no external dependencies.
|
||
### Default Mode
|
||
- **`start_enabled` now defaults to `true`** — Vietnamese mode is active immediately after launch. Press Ctrl+Space to toggle to English.
|
||
*(Existing users with a custom config.toml are unaffected — the explicit setting overrides the default.)*
|
||
|
||
### Tray & Desktop Entry
|
||
- **No password prompt inside Flatpak** — `needs_root()` detects Flatpak sandbox (`FLATPAK_ID` or `/app/bin` presence) and skips sudo entirely; the sandbox already has device access via `--device=all`.
|
||
- **First-launch flag always written** — the `.first-launch-done` marker is created even when the password prompt is dismissed, preventing repeated prompts.
|
||
- **Desktop categories** widened to `Utility;TextTools;X-GNOME-Utilities;` for better visibility in Cinnamon/Mint app menu.
|
||
- **Bundle**: `VietPlus-0.1.5.flatpak` (66 MB with tray, runtime `org.gnome.Platform//50`). Warning-free build.

## v0.1.4 (2026-06-28)
|
||
|
||
### Flatpak Packaging
|
||
- **Flatpak bundle** with all components: daemon, CLI, system tray, uinputd, XRecord, wrapper script
|
||
- **System tray icon** via D-Bus StatusNotifierItem (ksni)
|
||
- **Build script** `packaging/flatpak/build-flatpak.sh` — automated build from source
|
||

|
||
|
||
### Documentation
|
||
- README updated with Flatpak-only install/build instructions

||
### Clipboard & Injection
|
||
- **Fix clipboard-into-text race** — Eliminated race condition where clipboard content leaked into typed text during Unicode injection.
|
||

|
||
|
||
### Tests
|
||
- **106 tests** passing (72 engine + 16 CLI + 12 protocol + 5 auto-restore + 1 tone placement).

||
|
||
### Releases
|
||
