- 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.
Some bug fixes (description was not updated in tree,
base path of new tech was not set, dirs were not reused
for new tech).
Some enhancements (tech setup dialog's window state
is persisted etc.)
The tech controller now is indenpendent from the
macro controller. The macro controller is responsible for
pulling it's data from the tech controller. It's initialized
after the tech controller so it can do so.
The macro controller is also responsible to building the
menus.
The tech controller issues events that the macro controller
can listen to.
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
* Introduced "refresh" method of tech setup dialog
* Some refactoring -> tech management is part of
tech controller
* Macro category management moved to macro controller
