Now that we support more than 2 clients per shared buffer, we can use them
for window icons. I didn't do that previously since it would have made the
Taskbar process unable to access the icons.
This opens up some nice possibilities for programmatically generated icons.
This behavior and API was extremely counter-intuitive since our default
behavior was for applications to never exit after you close all of their
windows.
Now that we exit the event loop by default when the very last GWindow is
deleted, we don't have to worry about this.
Currently the two available input types are:
- GMessageBox::InputType::OK (default)
- GMessageBox::InputType::OKCancel
Based on your choice, GMessageBox::exec() will return ExecOK or ExecCancel.
This is the same as calling FileSystemPath(foo).string(). The majority of
clients only care about canonicalizing a path, so let's have an easy way
to express that.
We should work towards a pattern where we take StringView as function
arguments, and store String as member, to push the String construction
to the last possible moment.
fixed it so that directories don't get double-opened (first when they are
opened, and second when the selection changes to match in the file tree view)
They show up as checkable GButtons in GToolBar, and with (or without) check
marks in menus.
There are a bunch of places to make use of this. This patch only takes
advantage of it in the FileManager for the view type actions.
This patch adds a simple GMessageBox that can run in a nested event loop.
Here's how you use it:
GMessageBox box("Message text here", "Message window title");
int result = box.exec();
The next step is to make the WindowServer respect the modality flag of
these windows and prevent interaction with other windows in the same
process until the modal window has been closed.
This patch adds a GShortcut class. Each GAction can have a GShortcut which
will cause the event loop to listen for that key combination app-globally
and activate the event in case it's pressed.
The shortcut will also be displayed when the action is added to a menu.
Use this to hook up Alt+Up with the "open parent directory" action in the
FileManager app. :^)
Replace the custom DirectoryView widget with a GTableView subclass.
This was pleasantly straightforward and it's so cool seeing the huge
increase in app quality from GTableView. :^)
These functions don't exit immediately, but rather on the next iteration
of the event loop.
Since exit() is already used by the standard library, let's call it quit()
instead. That way, saying exit() means the same thing here as anywhere else.
