- The technology list now is synched with the salt package
manager so it's basically possible to include technologies
into packages.
This checkin also contains:
- A "NoDeferredMethods" class that blocks execution of deferred
methods in a region of code (preferably around message boxes).
This prevents side effects when message boxes are shown and
deferred methods are processed because of this.
That prevention method is used in the macro controller when
asking whether to execute autorun macros (that happens in
slots and must not interfere with deferred methods).
It's also used to protect the exception handlers.
- The tech manager dialog's refresh function used to crash
because of an invalid tech pointer.
Resolved the dependencies between MainWindow, TechController
and MacroController somewhat more.
* The macro controller now listens to the tech controller
for the active technology
* The tech controller has more responsibility now
* Some functionality has been taken out of the MainWindow
and put into the controller's implementation
The MacroController is the central facility for managing
macros and their views. The plugin framework has been
extended to support such a design.
In addition, some small bugs have been fixed related to
macro interpreters (specifically the DRC).
The respective new classes are RBA::Technology and
RBA::TechnologyComponent. This interface will replace
the current way of doing tech management from scripts
by using the "technology-data" configuration parameter.
First steps towards installer support. Specifically:
- basic installation methods, basic framework
- file utilities for directory copy
Side effect: temp directories of unit tests are
now cleared prior to test run.
This feature includes:
* Enhancements to tl::GlobPattern
(exact mode, case insensitive)
TODO: UTF8 support
* Enhancements to DecoratedLineEdit
(ESC key handling, Tab key handling)
