Setting a width request is not quite enough, since
gtk_widget_set_size_request() only queues a resize
when the widget is visible. Explicitly force one
here. Without this, the popup sometimes shows up
too small.
This is truly a russian doll of documentation formats:
a string containing <> inside an xml fragment in an |[ ]|
gtk-doc example in markdown in a doc comment.
Sadly, something gets escaping wrong, so the <> end up
literally in the docbook and mess up the last step of
our document formatting, even after turning them into
entities.
Work around this with an extra level of entities that
really shouldn't be necessary.
Commit 0145809a94 replace the response-requested
signal with an action, but didn't actually remove the emission
of that no-longer-existing signal.

SSave the missing keys as a bitset and iterate over that bitset in the
step function.
Solves the problem with a large UI block at the beginning of a sort
operation when all the keys were generated, in particular when key
generation was slow.
Benchmarks for maximum time taken by a single main loop callback:

When updating a (partially) sorted model, take the known runs for the
existing sort and apply them to the new sort. That way, we don't have to
check the whole model again.
Benchmarks:

Previously, the sort was not stable when items were added/removed while
sorting or the sort algorithm was changed.
Now the sort looks at the item position (via the key's location in the
keys array) to make sure each comparison stays stable with respect to
this position.
This massively speeds up sorting with expensive sort functions that it's
the most worthwhile optimization of this whole branch.
It's slower for simple sort functions though.
It's also quite a lot slower when the model doesn't support sort keys
(like GtkCustomSorter), but all the other sorters do support keys.
Of course, this depends on the number of items in the model - the number
of comparisons scales O(N * log N) while the overhead for key handling
scales O(N).
So as the log N part grows, generating keys gets more and more
beneficial.

GtkSortKeys is an immutable struct that can be used to manage "sort
keys" for items.
Sort keys are memory that is created specifically for sorting. Because
sorting involves lots of comparisons, it's a good idea to prepare the
data relevant for sorting in advance and sort on that data.
In measurements with a PropertyExpression on a string sorter, it's about
??? faster
Instead of one item keeping the item + its position and sorting that
list, keep the items in 1 array and put the positions into a 2nd array.
This is generally slower while sorting, but allows multiple improvements:
1. We can replace items with keys
This allows avoiding multiple slow lookups when using complex
comparisons
2. We can keep multiple position arrays
This allows doing a sorting in the background without actually
emitting items-changed() until the array is completely sorted.
3. The main list tracks the items in the original model
So only a single memmove() is necessary there, while the old version
had to upgrade the position in every item.
Benchmarks:
sorting a model of simple strings
old new
256,000 items 256ms 268ms
512,000 items 569ms 638ms

1. Run step() for a while to avoid very short steps
This way, we batch items-changed() emissions.
2. Track the change region accurately
This way, we can avoid invalidating the whole list if our step just
touched a small part of a huge list.
As this is a merge sort, this is a common occurence when we're buys
merging chunks: The rest of the model outside those chunks isn't
changed.
Note that the tracking is accurate: It determines the minimum change
region in the model.
This will be important, because the testsuite is going to test this.
... and use it in the SortListModel
Setting runs allows declaring already sorted regions so the sort does
not attempt to sort them again.
This massively speeds up partial inserts where we can reuse the sorted
model as a run and only resort the newly inserted parts.
Benchmarks:
appending half the model
qsort timsort
128,000 items 94ms 69ms
256,000 items 202ms 143ms
512,000 items 488ms 328ms
appending 1 item
qsort timsort
8,000 items 1.5ms 0.0ms
16,000 items 3.1ms 0.0ms
...
512,000 items --- 1.8ms
Simply replace the old qsort() call with a timsort() call.
This is ultimately relevant because timsort is a LOT faster in merging
to already sorted lists (think items-chaged adding some items) or
reversing an existing list (think columnview sort order changes).
Benchmarks:
initially sorting the model
qsort timsort
128,000 items 124ms 111ms
256,000 items 264ms 250ms
The model now tracks the original positions on top of just the items so that
it can remove items in an items-changed emission.
It now takes twice as much memory but removes items much faster.
Benchmarks:
Removing 50% of a model:
before after
250,000 items 135ms 10ms
500,000 items 300ms 25ms
Removing 1 item:
4,000 items 2.2ms 0ms
8,000 items 4.6ms 0ms
500,000 items --- 0.01ms
This is the dumbest possible sortmodel using an array:
Just grab all the items, put them in the array, qsort() the array.
Some benchmarks (setting a new model):
125,000 items - old: 549ms
new: 115ms
250,000 items - new: 250ms
This performance can not be kept for simple additions and removals
though.
This was preventing any sort of building on macOS, even though the quartz
backend is currently non-functional. Fixing this is a pre-requisite to
getting a new macOS backend compiling.
Changing the selection in the object tree is
not a useful action if we are already in the
object details. Most likely, a user who picks
an object wants to inspect its details, so
just always show them.
Fixes: #1876
Bring back the actions tab; we don't receive
changes anymore, since GtkActionMuxer lost
the GActionGroup signals for this, and the
action observer machinery has no way to listen
for all changes.
Instead of implementing the GActionGroup interface
and using its signals for propagating changes up
and down the muxer hierarchy, use the GtkActionObserver
mechanism. This cuts down on the signal emission
overhead.
We should not rely on GtkWindow to have global
"activate-default" key bindings that happen to
fall back to activating the focus widget. This is
unreliable, since the bubbling up from the button
to the toplevel may run across other widgets that
may want to use Enter for their own purpose, and
then the button loses out. By adding our own
key bindings, the button gets to handle it before
its ancestors.
This fixes check buttons in the inspector property
list not reacting to Enter despite having focus.
If we don't, an ancestor (such a GtkListItemWidget)
may interpret the click as "I should grab focus!",
and still our focus away. This was causing hard-to-focus
entries in the property list in the inspector.
We were hiding the inspector when the window
is closed, but that has the side-effect of
keeping references to application windows,
so we would keep them artificially alive,
which can have side-effects.
So, make the inspector go away when closed.
Porting code from GTK 3 without the ability to subclass GtkTreeView
directly can cause an extreme amount of pain on application developers.
It can also complicate performance when it comes to dealing with
encapsulation as the outer widget would also encapsulate the GtkScrollable
implementation from GtkTreeView, typically through GtkViewport.
Fixes#2936
This feature was previously only supported on DBus compositors, such as
Mutter, this adds support for other compositors such as all of those
based on wlroots.
This implementation prefers the idle-inhibit Wayland protocol to the
DBus version if it is available, since the inhibitor is per-surface
instead of global it allows a finer control over which displays get
dimmed for instance. For every case not supported by this protocol, a
fallback to the DBus version is used.
It can’t do anything if the GtkWindow isn’t passed, which might warrant
some documentation change to encourage users to not use NULL for this
argument.
This has been tested on Sway.
Fixes#2202.
When this code was ported from gtk_container_get_children
to the dom api, we inadvertendly inverted the order of the
list in one place. With the dom api, we can just avoid
reversing lists altogether, so do that.
Fixes: #2928
The press gesture does not need to set claimed state just for n-press
tracking, it will however reset all other click gestures on each press
if the event gets propagated all the way up.
Fixes tracking of multi-press in gestures in widgets that are children
of the window handle. E.g. the headerbar listview in the "File browser"
gtk4-demo demo.
