Ben Wiederhake c9bafa9467 FontEditor: Cannot take reference to local lambda
Under the hood, a lambda is just a struct full of pointers/references/copies and whatever else
the compiler deems necessary. In the case of 'update_demo', the struct lives on the stack
frame of FontEditorWidget::FontEditorWidget(). Hence it is still alive when it's called
during the constructor.

However, when 'fixed_width_checkbox.on_checked' fires, that stack frame is no longer alive,
and thus the *reference* to the (struct of) the lambda is invalid\! This meant that
'update_demo' silently read invalid data, tried to call '.update()' on some innocent arbitrary
memory address, and it crashed somewhere unrelated.

Passing 'update_demo' by value (like with all the other event handlers) fixes this issue.
Note that this solution only works because 'update_demo' itself has no state; otherwise
the various copies of 'update_demo' might notice that they are, in fact, independent copies
of the original lambda. But that doesn't matter here.

SerenityOS

Graphical Unix-like operating system for x86 computers.

Travis CI status

About

SerenityOS is a love letter to '90s user interfaces with a custom Unix-like core. It flatters with sincerity by stealing beautiful ideas from various other systems.

Roughly speaking, the goal is a marriage between the aesthetic of late-1990s productivity software and the power-user accessibility of late-2000s *nix. This is a system by us, for us, based on the things we like.

I (Andreas) regularly post raw hacking sessions and demos on my YouTube channel.

Sometimes I write about the system on my github.io blog.

I'm also on Patreon and GitHub Sponsors if you would like to show some support that way.
