Some Arduino boards have a supplemental hardware module that provides functionality separate from the primary
microcontroller the sketch program runs on.
Enhancements or fixes to the firmware that runs on these supplemental modules may be made over time so it is important
for the users of these boards to have an easy way to update the firmware. Arduino IDE provides a tool for doing this.
At the time the tool was created, the poor choice was made to include the names of the specific modules it supported at
the time in the tool's name. As was inevitable, that list has changed, rendering the tool name no longer accurate.
The immediate problem is that support has been added for updating the "bridge" and radio module on the UNO R4 WiFi. That
module is neither a "WiFi101" nor a "NINA", so the tool name does not reflect the support for the UNO R4 WiFi.
More significant changes in the supported modules are under way and will be introduced in the next release:
- Dropping support for the "WiFi101" module
- Adding support for the module on the Portenta C33 board
Rather than attempting to maintain a regularly changing and overly verbose name that includes the list of every
supported module, it is better to use a name for the tool that only describes its general purpose, leaving the task of
describing the specific supported modules to the documentation.
Added a new preference (`arduino.monitor.dockPanel`) to specify the
location of the application shell where the _Serial Monitor_ widget
resides. The possible values are `"bottom"` and `"right"`. The default\
value is the `"bottom"`.
The dock panel is per application and not per workspace or window.
However, advanced users can create the `./.vscode/settings.json` and
configure per sketch preference.

The Arduino Sketch Specification defines the allowed format of sketch folder names and sketch code filenames. Arduino
IDE enforces compliance with the specification in order to ensure sketches created with Arduino IDE can be used with any
other Arduino development tool.
The Arduino Sketch Specification has been changed to allow a leading underscore in sketch folder names and sketch code
filenames so IDE's sketch name validation must be updated accordingly.

An "INSTALLED" label is shown on the items in the Library Manager and Boards Manager views that are currently installed
on the user's system.
During some work to add missing internationalization to the UI strings, this text was changed to "INSTALL". That text is
not appropriate for what this label is intended to communicate.
The regression is hereby corrected, while retaining the internationalization of the string.
* fix board selection and workspace input dialogs width and height
* use same dialog for new file and rename
* fix board list getting small when filtering
* board select dialog: show variant text when no board is found
* fix addition boards url outline
The board search input field of the "Select Other Board and Port" dialog uses placeholder text to explain the usage of
the field to the user.
All other placeholder text in the IDE's UI uses sentence case. This specific placeholder was the exception, using
unpleasant caps lock instead.
The inconsistency is resolved by changing the placeholder text to the standard sentence case.
The text of the Arduino IDE user interface has been localized to 12 languages.
Before localization can be accomplished, internationalization must be done in the application's code base:
- Set up infrastructure to export localization data
- Pass all target strings to that infrastructure
While the first of these tasks is completed, the second was not completed for several strings which are part of the user
interface.
Those outstanding strings are hereby internationalized and will be made available for localization.

The Arduino IDE attempts to provide some additional guidance to users based on matches against compilation error
messages.
This practice was established during a time when some significant breaking changes were made to the common APIs in order
to ease the transition.
Since that time, the practice has mostly been discontinued. The interpretations are only valid for very old code that is
unlikely to be used by the target users now. So their benefit is negligible. The patterns used are inexact, meaning that
the interpretations may be printed inappropriately, which is more and more likely as the cases where the matches would
be valid become increasingly rare. When the maintenance burden is taken into consideration, it is clear that the harm is
far more than any benefits from these. So they are removed.
Notes for specific interpretations:
> Please import the SPI library from the Sketch > Import Library menu.
> As of Arduino 0019, the Ethernet library depends on the SPI library.
> You appear to be using it or another library that depends on the SPI library.
The target error was more common prior to Arduino IDE 1.6.6 (released ~6.5 years ago), when it was necessary for the
sketch to contain `#include` directives for transitive in addition to direct library dependencies (SPI is a common
transitive dependency).
Due to the nature of the SPI library, it is not often used directly, and when it is used directly it is done by more
advanced users who are unlikely to forget the `#include` directive and would have no need for this interpretation even
if they did.
It is far more likely for the user to forget an `#include` for a popular library, yet Arduino rightly does not attempt
to maintain interpretations for those.
The "Sketch > Import Library" menu path was renamed to "Sketch > Include Library" ~7 years ago.
Arduino IDE 0019 was released ~12 years ago. We can safely assume the migration to the new Ethernet API is complete.
> The 'BYTE' keyword is no longer supported.
> As of Arduino 1.0, the 'BYTE' keyword is no longer supported.
> Please use Serial.write() instead.
Arduino IDE 1.0 was released ~10.5 years ago. We can safely assume the migration to the new Serial API is complete.
This compilation error pattern is now far more likely to occur due to incorrect usage of a completely unrelated
occurrence of the common `BYTE` name in the user's code.
> The Server class has been renamed EthernetServer.
> As of Arduino 1.0, the Server class in the Ethernet library has been renamed to EthernetServer.
> The Client class has been renamed EthernetClient.
> As of Arduino 1.0, the Client class in the Ethernet library has been renamed to EthernetClient.
> The Udp class has been renamed EthernetUdp.
> As of Arduino 1.0, the Udp class in the Ethernet library has been renamed to EthernetUdp.
Arduino IDE 1.0 was released ~10.5 years ago. We can safely assume the migration to the new Ethernet API is complete.
The compilation error patterns are in no way specific to the Ethernet library so is prone to false positives.
> Wire.send() has been renamed Wire.write().
> As of Arduino 1.0, the Wire.send() function was renamed to Wire.write() for consistency with other libraries.
> Wire.receive() has been renamed Wire.read().
> As of Arduino 1.0, the Wire.receive() function was renamed to Wire.read() for consistency with other libraries.
Arduino IDE 1.0 was released ~10.5 years ago. We can safely assume the migration to the new Wire API is complete.
Due to the nature of the Wire library, it is not often used directly, and when it is used directly it is done by more
advanced users who have less need for an interpretation of the compiler error.
> 'Mouse' not found. Does your sketch include the line '#include <Mouse.h>'?
> 'Keyboard' not found. Does your sketch include the line '#include <Keyboard.h>'?
I left these in because they are the most "recent" (added due to a breaking change made 7 years ago).
However, I also feel that these are harmful and should either be removed or changed. The problem is that there is a
false match when the user attempts to compile the Keyboard or Mouse libraries for a board which does not have native USB
support (e.g., Uno, Mega), even when their sketch does contain the `#include` directives that are recommended by the
interpretation. That cause of the compilation error matching the pattern is more common than the case where the user is
compiling old code or forgot the `#include` directive, for which the interpretation is valid.
