-= Objectives =
+See [[Viewer App Cleanup]]
-* Improve the stability and maintainability of the Second Life Viewer code by cleaning up the initialization and main loop code
-* Move the main loop to a separate thread so that infinite loops can be detected and debugged
-= See Also =
-* [[Viewer Roadmap]]
-* [[User Interface Roadmap]]
-= Tasks =
-== Phase 1 ==
-=== LLViewerApp ===
-* Create a LLViewerApp class based on LLAppb
-* Move class initialization and parameter parsing to LLViewerApp
-* Move all error handling to LLViewerApp (errors set a flag and sleep, LLViewerApp generates the exception)
-* Move all debug/info/warning/error text printing to LLViewerApp
-** Print text to a buffer instead of stdio
-** Send the buffer to stdio in LLViewerApp loop
-=== LLViewerThread ===
-* Create a LLViewerThread class based on LLThread
-* Move the main loop into LLViewerThread
-=== Eliminate viewer.cpp ===
-* Create proper C++ abstractions for any remaining code in viewer.cpp
-=== Watchdog ===
-* Add a 'watchdog' to LLViewerApp to detect infinite loops and trigger a crash
-* Ensure that the crash handler generates proper stack information for LLViewerThread
-== Phase 2 ==
-=== LLViewerLogin ===
-* Abstract the login sequence into a class
-=== Eliminate startup.cpp ===
-* Create proper C++ abstractions for startup using LLViewerLogin
-=== Lightweight Client ===
-* Create a client that logs in to Second Life without running the 3D render pipeline
