This changelog is written with the goal of helping you through breaking changes rather than being a complete documentation of every change in the release.

0.17

Upgraded to winit 0.30

Winit 0.30 overhauled the event loop -- now everything occurs through the ApplicationHandler. Now rather than simply calling WinitInputHandler.update(), you have to call 4 different functions: .process_window_event(), .process_device_event(), .step(), and .end_step(), each in the corresponding function within ApplicationHandler.

The recommendations this crate gives about where to render and run your application logic have also been updated to match new guidance. As update() has been removed, it no longer returns true when you should run application logic. Instead, run your application logic after calling .process_about_to_wait() in ApplicationHandler::about_to_wait(). Run rendering code in ApplicationHandler::window_event() only when .process_window_event() returns true, indicating it received a RequestedRedraw event. It doesn't care about which window was requested to be redrawn, but if you do, you'll have to handle it yourself. If you want to render every frame, remember to call Window::request_redraw() in ApplicationHandler::about_to_wait() every time.

step_with_window_events removed

It seemed kind of broken since it doesnt process device events. And winit 0.30 makes this issue even worse. Something similar could be reintroduced in the future with more thought put into it.

0.16

• WinitInputHelper::quit is removed, instead use input.close_requested() || input.destroyed() for an equivalent check
• Mouse APIs now use https://docs.rs/winit/latest/winit/event/enum.MouseButton.html instead of a usize
• WinitInputHeler::text now returns https://docs.rs/winit/latest/winit/keyboard/enum.Key.html instead of the now deleted TextChar type

0.15

Upgraded to winit 0.29. Winit 0.29 completely overhauled its keyboard API, which meant that I had to also overhaul our keyboard API.

Previously winit_input_helper favored logical keys over physical keys (previously called scancodes). But this was a mistake, driven by winit's poor support for physical keys and mistaken simplification of logical keys. Winit has now fixed these mistakes and as a result winit_input_helper is now swapping to favor physical keys.

A direct translation of the previous API to the new API:

// old
input.key_pressed_scancode(17); // US scan code for W
// new
input.key_presed(winit::keyboard::KeyCode::KeyW);
// old
input.key_pressed(winit::event::VirtualKeyCode::KeyW);
// new
input.key_presed_logical(winit::keyboard::Key::Character("w")); // WARNING: this likely wont actually do what you want, this will never return true while shift is held since that is considered as W instead of w
</tr></table>

[dependabot]

Dependabot attempted to update this pull request, but because the branch dependabot/cargo/winit_input_helper-0.17 is protected it was unable to do so.

[dependabot]

Looks like winit_input_helper is up-to-date now, so this is no longer needed.

Updated manually as part of ecosystem refactor.
