Browsing the user's translations directory will simply add no new files
to the list of translations available if the directory doesn't exist.
GMenu2X::showSettings() doesn't need to care about that.
Because translations are files, not directories, also don't return
directories in the result. The code that makes the translations list
calls FileLister::getFiles and ignores directories anyway.
A file existence check is already performed, atomically with respect to
the filesystem, by ifstream's constructor. The result of this check is
available using ifstream::is_open().
The constructor now has zero arguments. showDirectories and showFiles
are now set using setter methods.
FileLister::browse is now the sole way to start a scan for files and
directories, replacing the initial path in the constructor and the
setPath method. It allows merging results from multiple directories
as before.
This is all to make explicit how many times the costly task of browsing
a directory is actually carried out.
Instead of checking which input configuration file exists among 2
choices, then asking InputManager to load that file, InputManager
itself now performs the resolution based on whether ifstream::is_open
returns true for each choice.
The existence of modifications to the skin configuration in the home
directory is now checked with ifstream::is_open, and the system's skin
configuration is used if that returns false.
A file existence check is already performed, atomically with respect to
the filesystem, by ifstream's constructor. The result of this check is
available using ifstream::is_open().
There are a few exclusive operations for each type. Also we no longer
need the freeWhenDone flag since the class now determines whether the
surface should be freed or not.
Applications with this flag will not have their stdout/stderr
redirected to a log file when logging is enabled. That is a useful
feature also on platforms where we don't micromanage the console.
Currently the launched application is exec-ed from deep within the menu
code. This means a lot of destructors are never run and as a result
for example file descriptors from the menu remain open in the launched
process.
This is a first step to move the launch invocation from a deep call
stack to the top level.
Instead of reading the file line by line and then concatenating those
lines, just load the entire thing in one go. And pay more attention to
error conditions.
The constructors of those classes now accept a string to be wrapped, instead
of a vector to be modified with split lines inserted into its middle.
Along with this conversion, manuals for applications stored in OPK packages
are now transferred into a string without garbage at the end.
In commit 950518f3 I changed the component type of RGBAColor from
16-bit to 8-bit integers. Unfortunately, in C++ 8-bit integers are
identical to characters, so this broke the writing of colors to
output streams.
This allows for faster scrolling between section links, in file and directory
selectors, and in manuals, without repeatedly pressing buttons.
The setting's unit is repetitions per second. Its default value is set to
10, and anything between 0 (disabled) and 20 (50 ms) is acceptable.
Grabbing &(instance of GMenu2X).confInt["buttonRepeatRate"] is unsafe, because
the storage for the slot may move as the slot is deleted or added. Instead, a
callback jumps back into the context of an InputManager so the value can be
read from a GMenu2X object's configuration.
A GMenu2X object is also passed to InputManager::init.
Previously, one would check the value in &confInt["someKey"] by passing a
reference to it to evalIntConf. However, because this passing of the reference
went through std::unordered_map::operator[], it created a slot with the named
key and initialised its value with the default constructor of int, which
placed 0 there, if it didn't exist. If the value of 0 was acceptable for the
setting, then 0 as the value selected by the user was indistinguishable from
a slot that had been just created and had to be set to its default.
Now, the std::unordered_map is passed along with the key so that evalIntConf
can check whether the key exists and, if it doesn't exist, set the value to
its default.
Include utilities.h in gmenu2x.h instead of the reverse. One type definition
used by utilities.cpp is moved there (ConfIntHash) and for consistency
ConfStrHash is moved there as well.
This does away with per-link selector directories in link files. It is assumed
that, if a user has access to write files to be launched by an application at
some location, he or she also has access to write files in the previews/
subdirectory under it.
LinkApp::drawRun() assumes the layers below are already painted when
it is called, but this was not the case. With single buffering, the
previous frame was still there so it still looked good, but with
double buffering the buffer typically contains an outdated screen.
Long term I think the launch should happen at the outermost scope,
so all destructors get a chance to run. This commit is a small step
in that direction, by exiting the main loop before launching.
