This was only synchronous since WindowServer managed the ID allocation.
Doing this on the client side instead allows us to make create_menu()
an asynchronous IPC call, removing a bunch of IPC stalls during
application startup.
This enables us to use keys of type NonnullRefPtr in HashMaps and
HashTables.
This commit also includes fixes in various places that used
HashMap<T, NonnullRefPtr<U>>::get() and expected to get an
Optional<NonnullRefPtr<U>> and now get an Optional<U*>.
This enables support for automatically generating client methods.
With this added the user gets code completion support for all
IPC methods which are available on a connection object.

With this patch the window manager related functionality is split out
onto a new endpoint pair named WindowManagerServer/Client. This allows
window manager functionality to be potentially privilege separated in
the future. To this end, a new client named WMConnectionClient
is used to maintain a window manager connection. When a process
connects to the endpoint and greets the WindowServer as a window manager
(via Window::make_window_manager(int)), they're subscribed to the events
they requested via the WM event mask.
This patch also removes the hardcoding of the Taskbar WindowType to
receive WM events automatically. However, being a window manager still
requires having an active window, at the moment.
I hereby declare these to be full nouns that we don't split,
neither by space, nor by underscore:
- Breadcrumbbar
- Coolbar
- Menubar
- Progressbar
- Scrollbar
- Statusbar
- Taskbar
- Toolbar
This patch makes everything consistent by replacing every other variant
of these with the proper one. :^)
This adds a double-click speed slider control to the Mouse Settings
panel, and value labels for both the movement speed and double-click
speed sliders.
To allow for updating and persisting the configured double-click
speed through the WindowServer, two IPC calls - `SetDoubleClickSpeed`
and `GetDoubleClickSpeed` - have been added.
Since applet windows live in the applet area window, the AppletManager
has to keep track of which applet is hovered and send the appropriate
enter/leave events to the applet windows.
This makes applet tooltips work again. :^)
WindowServer now collects applet windows into an "applet area" which is
really just a window that a WM (window management) client can position
via IPC.
This is rather hackish, and I think we should come up with a better
architecture eventually, but this brings back the missing applets since
the global menu where they used to live is gone.
This patch begins the transition away from the global menu towards
per-window menus instead.
The global menu looks neat, but has always felt clunky, and there
are a number of usability problems with it, especially in programs
with multiple windows.
You can now call GUI::Window::set_menubar() to add a menubar to
your window. It will be specific to that one window only.
Minimum window size can now be customised and set at runtime via the
SetWindowMinimumSize WindowServer message and the set_minimum_size
LibGUI::Window method. The default minimum size remains at 50x50.
Some behind-the-scenes mechanics had to be added to LibGUI::Window to
ensure that the minimum size is remembered if set before the window is
shown. WindowServer sends a resize event to the client if it requests a
size on create that's smaller than it's minimum size.
For example, FindInFilesWidget.h mentions GUI::TableView, but did not include
it. On the other hand, all source files that include FindInFilesWidget.h
also include TableView.h, so the issue is only cosmetical.
The WM_* IPC messages are intended for "outsider" window management,
not for a client's own windows. Make a separate StartWindowResize
message for this.
This was the only reason that every IPC client had to know its server
side client ID.
The priority boosting mechanism has been broken for a very long time.
Let's remove it from the codebase and we can bring it back the day
someone feels like implementing it in a working way. :^)
Adds a mechanism through which windowing clients can re-request an
UpdateSystemTheme message. This is currently used in SystemMenu's
ShutdownDialog to refresh it's theme when the dialog is instantiated.
