  v1.5.0 Stable

  JonKazama-Hellion released this 2026-05-17 09:45:34 +00:00 | 84 commits to main since this release

  v1.5.0 — DI Foundation and Service Refactor (2026-05-17)

  Major architecture cycle. The plugin bootstrap moves to a
  generic-host DI container (Microsoft.Extensions.Hosting +
  IServiceCollection) modelled on Lightless Sync. Service logging
  moves from a static Plugin.LogProxy locator to typed
  Microsoft.Extensions.Logging.ILogger via constructor injection,
  bridged over Dalamud's IPluginLog by a custom DalamudLogger trio.

  What changes under the hood:

  • 18 instance-class services migrate to ILogger via constructor
    injection across four slices: data layer (MessageStore,
    MessageManager, AutoTellTabsService), IPC and integrations
    (HonorificService, IpcManager, TypingIpc, ExtraChat, the three
    GameFunctions classes), UI window layer (ChatLogWindow,
    DbViewer, Popout, three settings tabs), and root (Commands,
    ThemeRegistry, PayloadHandler).
  • Plugin.LogProxy stays in place for the eight buckets ctor
    injection cannot reach: static helpers (EmoteCache,
    AutoTranslate, MemoryUtil, WrapperUtil), Dalamud-reflected
    types (Configuration), the Message data class, and instance
    classes that only log from static methods (FontManager, one
    GameFunctions site).
  • Plugin.cs finishes at 1012 lines — virtually identical to the
    pre-cycle 1013. The new Phase-1 host build and Plugin.X bridge
    wiring trade out exactly the service and window allocations
    that previously lived in LoadAsync.
  • Cross-plugin baseline confirms no performance penalty against
    Chat 2: HellionChat first-frame HITCH 77 ms median, Chat 2
    74 ms median. Lightless and XIVInstantMessenger sit around
    7 ms by deferring their font-atlas build past Finished
    loading — that pattern is the v1.5.1 follow-up.

  User-visible:

  • Slash-command insert fix: pasting a slash command into the
    chat input (Friend List "/tell" action, plugin-driven inserts
    from Artisan, AllaganTools etc.) now replaces the existing
    input instead of concatenating. Cherry-picked from ChatTwo
    upstream ee7768ac with namespace adaptation.

  Migration v17 stays (no schema bump).

  Based on Chat 2 1.35.3 (upstream Infiziert90/ChatTwo, EUPL-1.2).
