Here goes the first attempt at using VisualBuilder to make an application.
There are many features missing that we are gonna have to implement,
noticeably custom widgets (for the glyph editor and glyph map widgets)
but this patch already moves most of the UI layout to a form file. :^)
We shouldn't allow constructing e.g an OwnPtr from a RefPtr, and similar
conversions. Instead just delete those functions so the compiler whines
loudly if you try to use them.
This patch also deletes constructing OwnPtr from a WeakPtr, even though
that *may* be a valid thing to do, it's sufficiently weird that we can
make the client jump through some hoops if he really wants it. :^)
Regardless of mode, made the knob container clickable so the knob position
can be moved without dragging the knob itself.
Added a 3rd GSlider to the WidgetGallery showing the proportional mode in
action.
This patch removes copy_ref() from RefPtr and NonnullRefPtr. This means that
it's now okay to simply copy these smart pointers instead:
- RefPtr = RefPtr // Okay!
- RefPtr = NonnullRefPtr // Okay!
- NonnullRefPtr = NonnullRefPtr // Okay!
- NonnullRefPtr = RefPtr // Not okay, since RefPtr can be null.
There's very little reason to take NonnullRefPtr&& in arguments really.
You can avoid ref-count churn in the cases where ownership is transferred
from the caller to the callee, but that's a pretty unusual situation and
not worth optimizing for at this stage.
This is obviously more readable. If we ever run into a situation where
ref count churn is actually causing trouble in the future, we can deal with
it then. For now, let's keep it simple. :^)
I had a silly ambition that we would avoid unnecessary ref count churn by
forcing explicit use of "copy_ref()" wherever a copy was actually needed.
This was making RefPtr a bit clunky to work with, for no real benefit.
This patch adds the missing copy construction/assignment stuff to RefPtr.
It seems like the newest Ubuntu supported by Travis is 16.04. The bundled
gcc is unable to compile the trendy and modern Serenity code, so let's try
to install a newer GCC on the CI bot. :^)
The basic idea is that you would use it like this:
MyWidget::MyWidget(GWidget* parent)
: GWidget(parent)
{
m_ui = new UI_MyWidget;
set_main_widget(m_ui->main_widget);
...
}
This allows you to set e.g PRE_CXX=ccache in your environment and enjoy
cached rebuilds. This makes "./makeall.sh" take 5 seconds instead of 50
seconds on my machine. :^)
You can currently use this to detect the CPU architecture like so:
#if ARCH(I386)
...
#elif ARCH(X86_64)
...
#else
...
#endif
This will be helpful for separating out architecture-specific code blocks.
