When trying to figure out the correct implementation, we now have a very
strong distinction on plugins that are well suited for sniffing, and
plugins that need a MIME type to be chosen.
Instead of having multiple calls to non-static virtual sniff methods for
each Image decoding plugin, we have 2 static methods for each
implementation:
1. The sniff method, which in contrast to the old method, gets a
ReadonlyBytes parameter and ensures we can figure out the result
with zero heap allocations for most implementations.
2. The create method, which just creates a new instance so we don't
expose the constructor to everyone anymore.
In addition to that, we have a new virtual method called initialize,
which has a per-implementation initialization pattern to actually ensure
each implementation can construct a decoder object, and then have a
correct context being applied to it for the actual decoding.
Note that this still keeps the old behaviour of putting things in std by
default on serenity so the tools can be happy, but if USING_AK_GLOBALLY
is unset, AK behaves like a good citizen and doesn't try to put things
in the ::std namespace.
std::nothrow_t and its friends get to stay because I'm being told that
compilers assume things about them and I can't yeet them into a
different namespace...for now.
We have a new, improved string type coming up in AK (OOM aware, no null
state), and while it's going to use UTF-8, the name UTF8String is a
mouthful - so let's free up the String name by renaming the existing
class.
Making the old one have an annoying name will hopefully also help with
quick adoption :^)
This adds icons for folder paths ending in ".git". This adds 16x16 and
32x32 versions of a folder with a Git logo for both the closed and open
versions of the folder icon.
Each of these strings would previously rely on StringView's char const*
constructor overload, which would call __builtin_strlen on the string.
Since we now have operator ""sv, we can replace these with much simpler
versions. This opens the door to being able to remove
StringView(char const*).
No functional changes.
This converts the return value of File::read_link() from String to
ErrorOr<String>.
The rest of the change is to support the potential of an Error being
returned and subsequent release of the value when no Error is returned.
Unfortunately at this stage none of the places affected can utililize
our TRY() macro.
`static const` variables can be computed and initialized at run-time
during initialization or the first time a function is called. Change
them to `static constexpr` to ensure they are computed at
compile-time.
This allows some removal of `strlen` because the length of the
`StringView` can be used which is pre-computed at compile-time.
I've attempted to handle the errors gracefully where it was clear how to
do so, and simple, but a lot of this was just adding
`release_value_but_fixme_should_propagate_errors()` in places.
Instead of loading every icon, only load the filetype image icon if it
hasn't been already. This icon is used by IconViews that need to lazily
load thumbnails, which don't need any of the other icon types.
Spending the time to load the unneeded images was causing delays to
first paint in BackgroundSettings.
The LexicalPath instance methods dirname(), basename(), title() and
extension() will be changed to return StringView const& in a further
commit. Due to this, users creating temporary LexicalPath objects just
to call one of those getters will recieve a StringView const& pointing
to a possible freed buffer.
To avoid this, static methods for those APIs have been added, which will
return a String by value to avoid those problems. All cases where
temporary LexicalPath objects have been used as described above haven
been changed to use the static APIs.
Previously when using icon_for_path(), without specifying t_mode, on an
anonymous file it would return an empty Icon causing problems down the
line. Instead return the s_file_icon when stat fails.
Problem:
- `static` variables consume memory and sometimes are less
optimizable.
- `static const` variables can be `constexpr`, usually.
- `static` function-local variables require an initialization check
every time the function is run.
Solution:
- If a global `static` variable is only used in a single function then
move it into the function and make it non-`static` and `constexpr`.
- Make all global `static` variables `constexpr` instead of `const`.
- Change function-local `static const[expr]` variables to be just
`constexpr`.
We were using ELF::Image::section(0) to indicate the "undefined"
section, when what we really wanted was just Optional<Section>.
So let's use Optional instead. :^)

(...and ASSERT_NOT_REACHED => VERIFY_NOT_REACHED)
Since all of these checks are done in release builds as well,
let's rename them to VERIFY to prevent confusion, as everyone is
used to assertions being compiled out in release.
We can introduce a new ASSERT macro that is specifically for debug
checks, but I'm doing this wholesale conversion first since we've
accumulated thousands of these already, and it's not immediately
obvious which ones are suitable for ASSERT.
