This commit tries to address #85 and provide these features:
- dynamic configuration of the macro IDE behaviour
- side effect: a new entry in the setup dialog for the
IDE settings
- "stop on exceptions" can be taught to ignore certain files
Without this commit, bookmark menus got grayed out
on MacOS with Qt5 sometimes. Now, the implementation
of recent file menu, bookmark menu, macro menu and
the static main menu use the same framewkork which
includes a workaround for the disabled menu issue.
- ID's are used instead of pointers to identify menu items
vs. QAction's. This is a weak measure to enhance predictability.
- The file menu is built from abstract menu items instead with
native Qt objects. This way the bug fix applies both to
file menu items and the other menu entries
The main fix is:
- A menu sync is forced by emitting a focusWindowChanged event
from the application object. This forces the QCocoaMenuBar
implementation to update the system menu.
The issue is with "dllexport": previously, dllexport was present on
exposed templates tool (= visibility(default) for gcc/clang). This
ensured MacOS compatibility since then the typeinfo is corretly
shared and dynamic_cast/typeid works.
For Windows, the "dllexport" equivalent requires the template
instantiations to be declared "external" which is a coding nightmare.
The solution is to provide separate macros for real (non-specialized,
not explicitly instantiated) templates (.._PUBLIC_TEMPLATE) which
is defined as empty for Windows and "visiblity(default)" for gcc/clang.
1.) Startup issue:
This is solved by making sure templates with virtual functions
are made visible in the DSO. This way, dynamic_cast is possible
across DSO's.
Scary: clang/MacOS wants the forward declarations be declared visible as well.
2.) Menu issue:
The best solution is to have only one QMenuBar. The navigator
now gets a synthetic menu bar composed of QToolButtons.
This commit also contains some important fixes:
* Option -wd wasn't working
* Relative layout file paths in session files are resolved as relative
to the session file. On writing, absolute paths are used, so this
change only affects session files build intentionally.
Plus:
* Program version is available in unit tests too
* Fixed a typo in the RBA::Expression documentation
The patch is based on splitting the application class into
two incarnations - one for GUI capability and one without.
GSI binding happens dynamically based on the mode chosen.
We can do so because the application class is the first one
to become active and can decide the mode by itself.
In general, the application class carries too much functionality
and splitting is a task for the future. Right now, the functionality
is inside the base class and the derived classes basically only
configure the base class.
A better design would be to drop the QApplication inheritance in
the RBA::Application class hierarchy and provide access to the
QApplication object through qapp_gui getter.
In the setup dialog (Customize Menu page), there are check boxes
now by which menu entries and menus can be enabled or disabled.
CAUTION: don't disable the setup function :-)
Issue: macro definitions had to be synchronized for
custom key bindings. That's not possible for readonly
macros and breaks the architecture.
Now, there is a default binding and a custom binding:
the macros provide a default binding only and the custom
key binding can override this. This scheme is implemented
consistently, so now the "reset" function of the key
binding editor simply clears the custom binding.
Side effect: reset of individual key bindings is possible.
Another side effect: removing a key binding from an
item with a default one is not possible. Instead, redefine
it.
The bug was this:
- A macro is opened and modified in the macro IDE
- The directory which the macro is kept in is touched
Effect: the macro was reloaded and the edits were discarded.
