Bug Fixes

Joris Steyn committed changes in [umbrello] umbrello/dialogs/umlattributedialog.cpp:

Fix crash when adding attribute

There was an obscure crash in the code generator triggered by Import_Utils. It
tried to add the attribute to the logical view, explicitly setting ot_Attribute
prevents this behaviour.

Michael Pyne committed changes in [kdesrc-build] /ksb:

Make relative include entries relative to their own rc-file.

As opposed to making them relative to script location, original rc-file,
initial cwd, or similar. This allows for whole directory trees to be
moved around if need be as well as long as the internal links remain
consistent.

I've tested this on a sample here and also on the provided test case
with the bug and it seems to work well although I have not had time to
run through a whole build, merely the --pretend sequence.


FIXED-IN:1.16

Joris Steyn committed changes in [umbrello] umbrello/dialogs/umlattributedialog.cpp:

Better fix for attribute creation crash

Previous fix was faulty. The problem occurs when an object is looked up with an
empty name. Instead of not finding an object, umldoc can return an arbitrary
association object instead, resulting in problems in Import_Utils.

This change prevents calling Import_Utils with an empty typeName, so when an
attribute is created without specifying a type, the default behaviour of
creating a new class with Object_Factory is triggered - which handles this case
well.

Fix adding and removing bookmarks in the thumbnail panel

Fix adding and removing bookmarks in the thumbnail panel

Add and removal of bookmarks via the thumbnail context menu was acting
on the current viewport instead of the clicked page. This patch checks
whether it should act on the viewport or in the right clicked page.


FIXED-IN: 4.11.5

Teemu Rytilahti committed changes in [digikam] /importui:

Don't block the import UI by waiting for a complete folder listing for the whole device, but build the model gradually.

The new flow goes like this:
1. When a connection to a camera is made, call methods for loading files and subfolders for the root folder.
2. The backend reports via signal about the subfolders in given folder.
3. Request is being made to download file listing for the returned subfolders, and then check for their subfolders.
4. Repeat until finished.


FIXED-IN:4.0.0

Teemu Rytilahti committed changes in [digikam] utilities/importui/backend/gpcamera.cpp:

Support multiple storages when calculating the available drive space.
Don't discriminate on the filesystem type, it shouldn't matter as long as the free space information is available.
This fixes displaying the free & used space for devices reporting their filesystem different from DCIM, including Nexus7.

Teemu Rytilahti committed changes in [digikam] /importui:

Speed-up the UI, first step to fix 314952.
- Fix caching by using QWriteLocks when the cache is being written. We need to do this, because QCache is not thread-safe.
- Don't request image data from the camera just to get the name of it when requesting a thumbnail, because we have the list already available after getting the file list.

KDE-PIM

Martin Klapetek committed changes in [libkpeople] src/personsmodel.cpp:

Insert contacts only inside beginInsertRows/endInsertRows calls

The original idea of inserting the contact first, getting the index and
then just emitting the proper signals causes the view/proxy model to add
one ghost contact entry because the beginInsertRows call makes the
view/proxy model to reserve one new entry, but that empty spot is never
filled as the contact has already been inserted before the call.

So now we always just append it at the end. Fixes the ghost contact
problem.

According to RFC 4287 [4.2.1]:

If an atom:entry element does not contain atom:author elements, then
the atom:author elements of the contained atom:source element are
considered to apply. In an Atom Feed Document, the atom:author

Viewport transition refinements for Find and Undo/Redo actions

REVIEW: 114060

This patch introduces viewport transitions for undo/redo actions on annotations and forms. When an annotation/form action is undone/redone but the associated annotation/form is not currently visible, the viewport is updated to center on the undo/redo action. If the annotation/form is visible, the viewport is not updated.

The viewport transitions for the Find action have also been updated to this same algorithm. Previously the viewport was moved to center on each matching search term even if the search term was already visible in the viewport. This lead to unnecessary viewport transitions if the search term matched several items in a single paragraph for example.

These proposed changes to the viewport transition behavior are consistent with the find and undo behavior of many existing applications including Kate, Open Office, and Foxit PDF Reader.

Show not shunk ships when the game finishes

This patch includes the work done by Roney in the show-ships branch
but I still do not know how to merge out of date branches.
My work is only the two phase end of game of the network part.

How does it accomplishes its purpose?
* The end game has now two phases, first send/receive the ships in the
GameOverMessage, then the end game part.
* All the entities include a reference to the SeaView to be able to show
the ships (included in the parent class Entity)
* The shoots are drawn over the ships
* Instead of a parameter, the flag of adjacent ships is now a member
(grabbed from the multiple ships patch).
* The ships have now the coordinates where they are.
* The GameOverMessage was already ready to send/receive ships
(with a little bug off_by_1 fixed).
* Changed the name of a variable from a confusing name m_sea to a more
clear m_seaview
* There are now two lists of ships (for both entities to be able to
interchange the ships)

* It does not include configuration for this functionality, I think
everybody expects this behavior from this kind of game.

Center board vertically if required.

The board is centered horizontally already in case the board is tall. If
it is wide however, it still is aligned to the top leaving empty space
just at the bottom. This patch vertically centers a wide board.

Remove a work-around for Qt 4.6; Qt 4.8 is required and there is no
visible difference without that work-around.

The element "screen" had a transparent bar at the upper edge and
adjustments were done in the code to hide it. As the element has been
fixed, the adjustments can be removed.

Add previewPossible field to CamItemInfo that is used to decide whether the thumbnail is being queried from the backend.
This speeds up loading of thumbnails as it'll just use the mimetype icon when the backend says the thumbnails are not supported.
This is especially crucial for gphoto2 backend as it'll otherwise throw a lot of errors and slows down remarkably. Also probably speeds the UMS backend too as we don't try to parse the unsupported files.

Note, that CamItemInfo's operators were not changed except the debugging one.

KDE-PIM

Christian Mollekopf committed changes in [kdepimlibs] /:

Separated referencing of collections from the selection in FavoriteCollectionsModel.

The FavoritCollectionsModel used an internal selection model (that isn't used in any GUI),
to reuse the referencing of the Akonadi::SelectionProxyModel that corresponds to the current selection.
However, the selection is frequently cleared and restored during
layoutChanged signals, resulting in the collections frequently getting
dereferenced and rereferenced.
Since this happens for each favorite collection, this resultet in the
complete buffer getting cleared on every layoutChanged result, essentially
killing the buffering
(if 10 favorite collections get dereferenced, each of them ends up in the
buffer pushing other buffered collections out of the buffer).

Since a QSortProxyModel that filters dynamically translates each dataChanged
signal into a layoutChanged, the buffer was more or less constantly cleared.

We could try to avoid clearing the selection on layoutChanged signals in KSelectionProxyModel,
but not relying on the internal selection in the first place seem much more
robust and straightforward. The FavoriteCollectionsModel remains a subclass
of SelectionProxyModel for binary compatibility only, and should eventually be
turned into a KRecursiveFilterModel.

break down the katession.h/.cpp files

Changes:

One class per file. Code is now testable (almost) independently from
the app, so adding bunch of unit tests.

KateSession
* simple container
* remove read/writeConfig() in favour of config()
* move rename method to manager
* decouple name from filename (manager does the coupling now)
* hide constructor in favour of factories returning KateSession::Ptr
* not dependent on KateSessionManager anymore
* add sorting functions
* add timestamp (last time the session was saved)

KateSessionManager
* add activeSession(QString, bool, bool, bool)
* add activeAnonymousSession()
* change internal storage from QList to QHash (faster lookups)
* remove sorting from sessionList() to callers
* use KDirWatch to monitor session dir (this removes the constant
updates of m_sessions)

KateSessionsAction
* add possibility to depency-inject the KateSessionManager
* sort by modification time (desc)
* limit to ten items
* disable action, when there are no sessions

KateSessionChooser
* guarantee that selectedSession() will be valid, when result is resultOpen or
resultCopy. This simplifies the KateSessionManager workflow.

Alex Merry committed changes in [extra-cmake-modules] kde-modules/KDECompilerSettings.cmake:

Remove custom build types

KDECompilerSettings.cmake no longer alters CMake's built-in build types
or adds its own. The "debug" build type therefore simply sets -g with
no additional flags (rather than -O2 and, depending on the compiler,
some no-inline/no-reorder flags as previously), the "release" build
types no longer set -DQT_NO_DEBUG and the "debugfull", "profile" and
"coverage" build types no longer exist.

QT_NO_DEBUG is set by Qt's CMake scripts depending on the build type of
Qt itself. "debugfull" mostly set -g3, allowing macro expansion when
debugging; users can set this flag using environment variables if they
wish. "RelWithDebugInfo" should be used instead of "profile" (according
to dfaure); -fprofile-arcs and -ftest-coverage are easy enough to add to
$CXX_FLAGS if they are required (formerly set by "profile" and
"coverage").

You should now use
cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=debug
instead of
cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=debugfull
