In a bunch of cases, this actually ends up simplifying the code as
to_number will handle something such as:
```
Optional<I> opt;
if constexpr (IsSigned<I>)
opt = view.to_int<I>();
else
opt = view.to_uint<I>();
```
For us.
The main goal here however is to have a single generic number conversion
API between all of the String classes.
This commit un-deprecates DeprecatedString, and repurposes it as a byte
string.
As the null state has already been removed, there are no other
particularly hairy blockers in repurposing this type as a byte string
(what it _really_ is).

The "Window" classes in LibGUI and WindowServer now store the PID of the
process that created the window. LibGUI's Window obtains the PID in the
constructor via getpid(), and passes it in Window::show() to
WindowServer via the create_window() IPC route. WindowServer then saves
it in its own Window class.
This allows us to find the process that created a window in order to add
process-specific actions to the window.
Previously, exiting a fullscreen application when
`save_size_and_position_on_close()` was used would lead to the
application having an unexpectedly large size when it was reopened.
Exiting a maximized application would lead to the restore button not
working as expected when the application was reopened.
Since Core::Object properties are really only used by GML now that the
Inspector is long gone, there's no need for these to pollute
Core::Object.
This patch adds a new GUI::Object class to hold properties, and makes
it the new base class of GUI::Window, GUI::Widget and GUI::Layout.
The "instantiate an object by name" mechanism that GML uses is also
hoisted into GUI::Object as well.
From what I can tell, this facility was added to WSWindow/GWindow in
2019 in 9b71307. I only found a single place in the codebase still using
this facility: `WindowServer::Menu::start_activation_animation()`. A
subtle fade-out animation that happens when a menu item is selected, and
the menu disappears.
I think our compositing facilities have improved enough to make this
facility redundant. The remaining use mentioned above was ported to just
directly blit the fade-out animation instead of requesting it from
WindowServer.
Previously Windows automatically grew to accomodate layout changes
when obeying minimum widget size but would not automatically shrink
if so desired. Setting auto shrink true now automatically resizes
windows to their effective_min_size() every time their minimum size
updates. This will be useful for making fixed size windows responsive
to layout and font changes in the future.
Since ef7d9c0, shortcut propagation was blocked for blocking modals and
popups. This however is an issue as some blocking modals (like
FilePicker) use shortcuts. This patch allows propagation of shortcuts
but only until the current window.
First, this patch renames the function
`propagate_shortcuts_up_to_application` to `propagate_shortcuts`.
Handling those levels, will allow us to differentiate shortcuts at
`Window` level and `Application` level. Which will be convenient to
handle dialog-specific shortcuts.
The old `GUI::Window` resizing behavior created a new backing store for
each resize event (i.e. every visible window size). This caused a lot of
trashing and on my machine, caused up to 25% of CPU time spent in
creating new backing stores.
The new behavior is a bit more sensible:
* If the window size is shrinking, the backing store is already large
enough to contain the entire window - so we don't create a new one.
* If the window size is growing, as soon as the backing store can no
longer contain the window, it is inflated with a large margin (of an
arbitrary chosen 64 pixels) in both directions to accommodate some
leeway in resizing before an even larger backing store is required.
* When the user stops resizing the window, the backing store is
resized to the exact dimensions of the window.
For me, this brings the CPU time for creating backing stores down to 0%.
Previously we didn't always return when there was an automatic cursor
tracking widget. This meant for certain events e.g. a MouseUp over
the tracking widget, the event would be fired twice on the same widget
(once on `m_automatic_cursor_tracking_widget` then again on
`result.widget` outside the if).
Fixes#16737
Previously, automatic cursor tracking widgets consumed all mouse
events but did not update their own hover state while active, meaning
Enter and Leave events were not being dispatched.
Fixes TextEditor's automatic selection scroll timer failing to stop
and start while autotracking. Its manual workaround in mousedown
is no longer needed.
This will make it easier to support both string types at the same time
while we convert code, and tracking down remaining uses.
One big exception is Value::to_string() in LibJS, where the name is
dictated by the ToString AO.
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 :^)
with WindowInput{Preempted,Restored} Events and allow Widgets to save
the state of their focus preemption. As of now, only Popups will
preempt input and trigger these events.
The hot-spots for resizing a window by dragging its corner are now
limited to a small area around the actual corner instead of an area with
1/3rd the length or width of the window.
The hot-spots to resize a window while holding a modifier key and the
right mouse button are unchanged.
Previously Menus set themselves as active input solely to make
sure CaptureInput modals would close, but this is a functional
half-truth. Menus don't actually use the active input role; they
preempt normal Windows during event handling instead.
Now the active input window is notified on preemption and Menus
can remain outside the active input concept. This lets us make
more granular choices about modal behavior. For now, the only
thing clients care about is menu preemption on popup.
Fixes windows which close on changes to active input closing
on their own context menus.
with the CaptureInput WindowMode. This mode will serve the same
function as accessories: redirecting input while allowing parent
windows to remain active.
Previously, Windows only understood blocking modality: Windows were
either modal, i.e., in a blocking state, or not. Windows could also
be set as Accessories or ToolWindows, attributes which technically
applied modes to their parents but were implemented ad hoc. This patch
redefines these modal effects as WindowModes and sets up some helpers.
This will let us simplify a lot of modal logic in the upcoming patches
and make it easier to build new modal effects in the future.
Windows can now set 1 of 5 modes before reification:
-Modeless: No modal effect; begins a new modal chain
-Passive: Window joins its modal chain but has no effect
-RenderAbove: Window renders above its parent
-CaptureInput: Window captures the active input role from its parent
-Blocking: Window blocks all interaction with its modal chain
States like fullscreen and tiling are dynamic and don't alter behavior
in modal chains, so they aren't included.
And remove unnecessary workarounds to the old limit of {50, 50} and
the cautious but arbitrary limit of {1, 1} for other WindowTypes.
Null rects are already the default when calculating minimum window
size and are the least restrictive but valid value.
Also returns early during minimum size calculations for frameless
windows, and verifies against negative minimum sizes and failure to
disable widget min size before setting a minimum window size. Layout
automatically overrides this setting each relayout otherwise.
This commit moves the length calculations out to be directly on the
StringView users. This is an important step towards the goal of removing
StringView(char const*), as it moves the responsibility of calculating
the size of the string to the user of the StringView (which will prevent
naive uses causing OOB access).
Instead of having widget/window/application create a shortcut from a
KeyEvent within their find methods, we'll just pass them a Shortcut
so that the "where to search" logic doesn't need to be duplicated
for different Shortcut types.
It also lets us handle invalid Shortcut rejection at a higher level,
with most things letting the caller be responsible for not searching
for actions with an invalid shortcut.
