This patch adds GUI::Action::create_checkable() helpers that work just
like the existing create() helpers, but the actions become checkable(!)
Clients are no longer required to manage the checked state of their
actions manually, but instead they will be checked/unchecked as needed
by GUI::Action itself before the activation hook is fired.
This allows us to construct menus in a more natural way:
auto& file_menu = menubar->add_menu("File");
file_menu.add_action(...);
Instead of the old way:
auto file_menu = GUI::Menu::construct();
file_menu->add_action(...);
menubar->add_menu(file_menu);
Since the returned object is now owned by the callee object, we can
simply vend a ChildType&. This allows us to use "." instead of "->"
at the call site, which is quite nice. :^)
I started adding things to a Draw namespace, but it somehow felt really
wrong seeing Draw::Rect and Draw::Bitmap, etc. So instead, let's rename
the library to LibGfx. :^)
I've been wanting to do this for a long time. It's time we start being
consistent about how this stuff works.
The new convention is:
- "LibFoo" is a userspace library that provides the "Foo" namespace.
That's it :^) This was pretty tedious to convert and I didn't even
start on LibGUI yet. But it's coming up next.
Put each tool's thickness altering actions into a GActionGroup and make
them mutually exclusive so we get that nice radio button appearance.
This all feel very clunky and we should move towards having something
like a "tool settings" pane that gets populated by the currently active
tool instead.
As suggested by Joshua, this commit adds the 2-clause BSD license as a
comment block to the top of every source file.
For the first pass, I've just added myself for simplicity. I encourage
everyone to add themselves as copyright holders of any file they've
added or modified in some significant way. If I've added myself in
error somewhere, feel free to replace it with the appropriate copyright
holder instead.
Going forward, all new source files should include a license header.
This patch adds a new "accept" promise that allows you to call accept()
on an already listening socket. This lets programs set up a socket for
for listening and then dropping "inet" and/or "unix" so that only
incoming (and existing) connections are allowed from that point on.
No new outgoing connections or listening server sockets can be created.
In addition to accept() it also allows getsockopt() with SOL_SOCKET
and SO_PEERCRED, which is used to find the PID/UID/GID of the socket
peer. This is used by our IPC library when creating shared buffers that
should only be accessible to a specific peer process.
This allows us to drop "unix" in WindowServer and LookupServer. :^)
It also makes the debugging/introspection RPC sockets in CEventLoop
based programs work again.
This means that (for example) if you change the line width of the line
tool, you now switch to the line tool, instead of sticking with the
currently "checked" tool.
Palette is now a value wrapper around a NonnullRefPtr<PaletteImpl>.
A new function, set_color(ColorRole, Color) implements a simple
copy-on-write mechanism so that we're sharing the PaletteImpl in the
common case, but allowing you to create custom palettes if you like,
by getting a GWidget's palette, modifying it, and then assigning the
modified palette to the widget via GWidget::set_palette().
Use this to make PaintBrush show its palette colors once again.
Fixes#943.
The tool currently supports drawing an elliptical line of a specified
thickness. Further improvements can include adding a fill mode, and
holding down shift to draw a perfect circle.
Closes#375.
Instead of directly manipulating LDFLAGS, set LIB_DEPS in each
subdirectory Makefile listing the libraries needed for
building/linking such as "LIB_DEPS = Core GUI Draw IPC Core".
This adds each library as an -L and -l argument in LDFLAGS, but
also adds the library.a file as a link dependency on the current
$(PROGRAM). This causes the given library to be (re)built before
linking the current $(PROGRAM), but will also re-link any binaries
depending on that library when it is modified, when running make
from the root directory.
Also turn generator tools like IPCCompiler into dependencies on the
files they generate, so they are built on-demand when a particular
directory needs them.
This all allows the root Makefile to just list directories and not
care about the order, as all of the dependency tracking will figure
it out.
GApplication now has a palette. This palette contains all the system
theme colors by default, and is inherited by a new top-level GWidget.
New child widgets inherit their parents palette.
It is possible to override the GApplication palette, and the palette
of any GWidget.
The Palette object contains a bunch of colors, each corresponding to
a ColorRole. Each role has a convenience getter as well.
Each GWidget now has a background_role() and foreground_role(), which
are then looked up in their current palette when painting. This means
that you no longer alter the background color of a widget by setting
it directly, rather you alter either its background role, or the
widget's palette.
Color themes are loaded from .ini files in /res/themes/
The theme can be switched from the "Themes" section in the system menu.
The basic mechanism is that WindowServer broadcasts a SharedBuffer with
all of the color values of the current theme. Clients receive this with
the response to their initial WindowServer::Greet handshake.
When the theme is changed, WindowServer tells everyone by sending out
an UpdateSystemTheme message with a new SharedBuffer to use.
This does feel somewhat bloated somehow, but I'm sure we can iterate on
it over time and improve things.
To get one of the theme colors, use the Color(SystemColor) constructor:
painter.fill_rect(rect, SystemColor::HoverHighlight);
Some things don't work 100% right without a reboot. Specifically, when
constructing a GWidget, it will set its own background and foreground
colors based on the current SystemColor::Window and SystemColor::Text.
The widget is then stuck with these values, and they don't update on
system theme change, only on app restart.
All in all though, this is pretty cool. Merry Christmas! :^)
Allow everything to be built from the top level directory with just
'make', cleaned with 'make clean', and installed with 'make
install'. Also support these in any particular subdirectory.
Specifying 'make VERBOSE=1' will print each ld/g++/etc. command as
it runs.
Kernel and early host tools (IPCCompiler, etc.) are built as
object.host.o so that they don't conflict with other things built
with the cross-compiler.
GFilePicker
- Fixed GFilePicker to use new ref-counted construct method to stop crashing on open dialog.
- PaintBrush is still crashing on open dialog due to an unrelated issue.
PaintBrush
- Created 16x16 icon for PaintBrush
- Moved Open option into App menu.
- Changed help menu to make use of the standardized About dialog.
Okay, I've spent a whole day on this now, and it finally kinda works!
With this patch, CObject and all of its derived classes are reference
counted instead of tree-owned.
The previous, Qt-like model was nice and familiar, but ultimately also
outdated and difficult to reason about.
CObject-derived types should now be stored in RefPtr/NonnullRefPtr and
each class can be constructed using the forwarding construct() helper:
auto widget = GWidget::construct(parent_widget);
Note that construct() simply forwards all arguments to an existing
constructor. It is inserted into each class by the C_OBJECT macro,
see CObject.h to understand how that works.
CObject::delete_later() disappears in this patch, as there is no longer
a single logical owner of a CObject.
