Add a GtkDirectoryList:monitored property, and
keep a file monitor if it is set to TRUE. To ensure
that the list reflects reality, we reload the directory
when monitoring is turned on after the fact. This means
that turning monitoring is expensive, while turning it
off is cheap, so we default to monitoring being on.
Simplify all view model APIs and always return G_TYPE_OBJECT as the
item-type for every model.
It turns out nobody uses item-type anyway.
So instead of adding lots of APIs, forcing people to think about it and
trying to figure out how to handle filter or map models that modify item
types, just having an easy life is a better approach.
All the models need to be able to deal with any type of object going
through anyway.
Crossing events are now detached from widget state, all tricky consequences
from getting multiple crossing events are now somewhat moot. Resort to sending
all generated crossing events, and drop this barely (ever?) used API.
This is a list model holding strings, initialized
from a char **. String lists are buildable as well,
and that replaces the buildable support in GktDropDowns.
This is a selection model that stores the selection
state in a boolean property of the items, and thus
persists across reordering and similar changes.
Fixes: #2826
It feels slightly wrong to have GtkOrientable operate on widgets, but at
least what happens when an orientable widget changes orientation should
be part of GtkWidget.
This will allow to add more state changes without accessing widget state
from the outside of gtkwidget.c.
Rename the show-separators property to show-row-separators,
and add a matching show-column-separators property. It is
implemented by setting the .column-separators style class
on the column view.
This is a somewhat large commit that:
- Adds GtkColumnViewSorter
This is a special-purpose, private sorter implementation which sorts
according to multiple sorters, allowing each individual sorter to be
inverted. This will be used with clickable column view headers.
- Adds a read-only GtkColumnView::sorter property
The GtkColumnView creates a GtkColumnViewSorter at startup that it uses
for this property.
- Adds a writable GtkColumnViewColumn::sorter property
This allows defining per-column sorters. Whenever an application sets a
sorter for a column, the header becomes clickable and whenever
a header is clicked, that column's sorter is prepended to the list of
sorters, unless it is already the first sorter, in which case we invert
its order. No column can be in the list more than once.
This uses a custom GtkColumnViewTitle widget. So far that widget is
pretty boring, but that will change once we added
resizing, reordering, dnd, sorting, hiding/showing of columns or
whatever UIs we want.
The ColumnView now allocates column widths first and then the individual
rows use the new layout manager which looks at the column allocations to
allocate their children.
It's a GtkListItemWidget subclass that tracks the column it belongs to
and allows the column to track it.
We also use this subclass to implement sizing support so columns share
the same size and get resized in sync.
This splits GtkListItem into 2 parts:
1. GtkListItem
This is purely a GObject with public API for developers who want to
populate lists. There is no chance to cause conflict with GtkWidget
properties that the list implementation assumed control over and
defines a clear boundary.
2. GtkListItemWidget
The widget part of the listitem. This is not only fully in control of
the list machinery, the machinery can also use different widget
implementations for different list widgets like I inted to for
GtkColumnView.
This reverts commit 6a164ab306dad9096bde736c907494c71086d3c4.
The function was awkward and we now have only one caller again, so we
can fold it back into it.
This is a container widget that takes over all the duties of tree
expanding and collapsing.
It has to be a container so it can capture keybindings while focus is
inside the listitem.
So far, this widget does not allow interacting with it, but it shows the
expander arrow in its correct state.
Also, testlistview uses this widget now instead of implementing
expanding itself.
Due to the many different ways to set factories, it makes sense to
expose them as custom objects.
This makes the actual APIs for the list widgets simpler, because they
can just have a regular "factory" property.
As a convenience function, gtk_list_view_new_with_factory() was added
to make this whole approach easy to use from C.
Also refactor the whole list item management yet again.
Now, list item APIs doesn't have bind/unbind functions anymore, but only
property setters.
The item factory is the only one doing the binding.
As before, the item manager manages when items need to be bound.
It's all stubs for now, but here's the basic ideas about what
this object is supposed to do:
(1) It's supposed to be handling all the child GtkWidgets that are
used by the listview, so that the listview can concern
itself with how many items it needs and where to put them.
(2) It's meant to do the caching of widgets that are not (currently)
used.
(3) It's meant to track items that remain in the model across
items-changed emissions and just change position.
(2) It's code that can be shared between listview and potential
other widgets like a GridView.
It's also free to assume that the number of items it's supposed to
manage doesn't grow too much, so it's free to use O(N) algorithms.
Thisis the abstraction I intend to use for creating widgets and binding
them to the item out of the listview.
For now this is a very dumb wrapper around the functions that exist in
the API.
But it leaves the freedom to turn this into public API, make an
interface out of it and most of all write different implementations, in
particular one that uses GtkBuilder.
