When I cut it in half so I could fetch the XCharStruct for a given
character, I forgot that the remaining half should check whether it
had got NULL from the XCharStruct finder. Ahem.
If you run something like 'seq 2000000000' in a GTK3 pterm, the window
never actually updates, because pterm always considers reading more
data from the pty to have higher priority than delivering the "draw"
event. Using g_io_add_watch_full instead of g_io_add_watch allows us
to explicitly lower the priority of the I/O sources, so that window
redraws will take precedence.
This is quite a pain, since it involves inventing an entire new piece
of infrastructure to install a custom Xlib error handler and give it a
queue of things to do. But it fixes a bug in which Unix pterm/PuTTY
crash out at startup if one of the root window's CUT_BUFFERn
properties contains something of a type other than STRING - in
particular, UTF8_STRING is not unheard-of.
For example, run
xprop -root -format CUT_BUFFER3 8u -set CUT_BUFFER3 "thingy"
and then pterm without this fix would have crashed.
I had completely forgotten, when rendering each glyph to a server-side
pixmap and downloading its contents, to only look at the part of the
pixmap that XDrawImageString would have overwritten, as specified by
the metrics in the XCharStruct. Now 'pterm -fn server:variable'
doesn't randomly make up bitmap nonsense outside each character's
bounding rectangle.
GCC 6 emits strict-aliasing warnings here, so use the existing
sockaddr_union arrangements to avoid those. As a prerequisite for being
able to express sk_tcp_peer_info in terms of sockaddr_union, I fixed up
the union elements to be a bit less odd in the NO_IPV6 case.
Now all the uses of the licence text or the short copyright notice get
it from a new header "licence.h", which in turn is built by a Perl
script licence.pl invoked by mkfiles.pl, using LICENCE itself as the
source.
Hence, I can completely remove a whole section from the list of
licence locations in CHECKLST.txt :-)
I've made the licence text, the About box, and the host key dialog
into GTK selectable edit controls. (The former because it contains a
lot of text; the About box because pasting version numbers into bug
reports is obviously useful; the host key because of the fingerprint.)
When we provide an editable text box with a drop-down list of useful
preset values, such as the one full of character sets in the
Translation panel, we implement it on GTK 2.4+ as a GtkComboBox
pointing at a two-column GtkListStore, in which the second column is
the actual text (the first being a numeric id). Therefore, we need to
set the "entry-text-column" property to tell GtkComboBox which of
those columns to look in for the value corresponding to the edit-box
text.
Thanks to Robert de Bath for spotting the problem and tracing it as
far as commit 5fa22495c. That commit replaced a widget construction
call via gtk_combo_box_entry_new_with_model() with one using the newer
gtk_combo_box_new_with_model_and_entry(), overlooking the fact that
the former provided the text column number as a parameter, and the
latter didn't.
I'd missed out an if statement in the Unix proxy stderr code
introduced by commit 297efff30, causing ret->cmd_err to be passed to
uxsel_set even when it was -1 (which happened in the non-GUI tools).
Unfortunately, putting a negative fd into the uxsel tree has really
bad effects, because the first_fd / next_fd interface returns a
negative number to signal end-of-list - and since the uxsel tree is
sorted by fd, that happens _immediately_.
Added the missing if statement, and also an assertion to make sure we
never pass -1 to uxsel_set by mistake again!
gtk_misc_set_alignment was deprecated in GTK 3.14. But my replacement
code using gtk_label_set_xalign doesn't work there, because that
function wasn't introduced until GTK 3.16, so there are two minor
versions in the middle where a third strategy is needed.
It has three settings: on, off, and 'only until session starts'. The
idea of the last one is that if you use something like 'ssh -v' as
your proxy command, you probably wanted to see the initial SSH
connection-setup messages while you were waiting to see if the
connection would be set up successfully at all, but probably _didn't_
want a slew of diagnostics from rekeys disrupting your terminal in
mid-emacs once the session had got properly under way.
Default is off, to avoid startling people used to the old behaviour. I
wonder if I should have set it more aggressively, though.
On both Unix and Windows, we now redirect the local proxy command's
standard error into a third pipe; data received from that pipe is
broken up at newlines and logged in the Event Log. So if the proxy
command emits any error messages in the course of failing to connect
to something, you now have a fighting chance of finding out what went
wrong.
This feature is disabled in command-line tools like PSFTP and Plink,
on the basis that in that situation it seems more likely that the user
would expect standard-error output to go to the ordinary standard
error in the ordinary way. Only GUI PuTTY catches it and logs it like
this, because it either doesn't have a standard error at all (on
Windows) or is likely to be pointing it at some completely unhelpful
session log file (under X).
I've defined a new value for the 'int type' parameter passed to
plug_log(), which proxy sockets will use to pass their backend
information on how the setup of their proxied connections are going.
I've implemented support for the new type code in all _nontrivial_
plug log functions (which, conveniently, are precisely the ones I just
refactored into backend_socket_log); the ones which just throw all
their log data away anyway will do that to the new code as well.
We use the new type code to log the DNS lookup and connection setup
for connecting to a networked proxy, and also to log the exact command
string sent down Telnet proxy connections (so the user can easily
debug mistakes in the configured format string) and the exact command
executed when spawning a local proxy process. (The latter was already
supported on Windows by a bodgy logging call taking advantage of
Windows in particular having no front end pointer; I've converted that
into a sensible use of the new plug_log facility, and done the same
thing on Unix.)
We set up a pair of bufchains for the standard input and output
exchanged with the proxy process, but forgot to clear them when the
Local_Proxy_Socket is cleaned up.
TOOLTYPE_NONNETWORK (i.e. pterm) already has "-log" (as does Unix
PuTTY), so there's no sense suppressing the synonym "-sessionlog".
Undocumented lacunae that remain:
plink accepts -sessionlog, but does nothing with it. Arguably it should.
puttytel accepts -sshlog/-sshrawlog (and happily logs e.g. Telnet
negotiation, as does PuTTY proper).
This saves the need to fork and exec "cat", which should speed things
up. It also ensures that the network output goes to /dev/null, which
should avoid problems with blocking when writing to a full pipe.
In GTK3, the line 'Continue with connection?' got wrapped (in spite of
my attempt to enforce via string_width() that it didn't - probably a
few pixels were needed on top of that for various padding and
furniture) so it looked even sillier. But it looked a bit narrow to be
sensible even in GTK2, so the simplest answer is just to widen it
considerably.
I think it only did so in GTK2 by virtue of the About box being a
GtkDialog. But in GTK3 I've abandoned GtkDialog for not being flexible
enough, so I have to process the Escape key myself.
The askalg() dialog, and several one-button things like the licence
box, have no button labelled 'cancel'. But in all cases we do want
Escape to terminate the box, with as negative an answer as is
available. So now we assign the 'iscancel' flag to any button whose
numeric value is the smallest of the ones given as input to
messagebox().
(In a one-button box, this leads to isdefault and iscancel _both_
being set for that button. That's fine; it works.)
I had put an entire piece of code into win_key_press's SHORTCUT_UCTRL
handler to carefully handle all the different kinds of list box
control and do something sensible with each one, and then I just went
and used a generic SHORTCUT_FOCUS type shortcut instead of actually
_calling_ all that carefully prepared code.
Now selecting (say) the character-classes list box in the Selection
panel using its Alt-e shortcut works; also, shortcut-selecting a popup
menu such as the ones in the Bugs panel causes the menu to pop up,
which I think is nicer than what previously happened.
I'd failed to set the widget field in its shortcut structure, leading
to an annoying GTK warning log message and no useful UI action when
Alt-G was pressed in the config box.
I had originally planned to implement a Compose-type key locally in
GTK PuTTY, as I did in Windows PuTTY. But in fact we've done this for
some time by delegating to the GTK IM system, which is a far better
idea anyway. So there's no point any more having the FIXME comment
that mentions Compose keys.
Also, there was a comment worrying about what I was going to do about
double-width characters in Pango, which is long since sorted out.
Fixes a behaviour which I intended all along but apparently didn't
work before on GTK: if you start PuTTY, _select_ a saved session in
the list box but don't hit Load, and then just hit Open, then it will
be implicitly loaded and run for you, as a special case to save you an
extra button-press.
This depends on noticing that the saved-sessions list box last had the
focus, for which I need my widget_focus() handler to be called for
basically all config widgets so that I can track what _did_ last have
focus. Unfortunately, I missed a couple out.
The previous sequence of events was that I would display the window
synchronously (via gtk_widget_show_now), so that I knew it was
actually on the screen and realised as an X window, and then I'd grab
the keyboard, and once the keyboard was grabbed, connect up the
keyboard event handlers and display the prompt.
I have to assume that deferring the display of the 'enter the
passphrase' prompt until the keyboard handlers were set up was
intended as some sort of 'not misleading the user' measure - don't
tell them to start typing until we're actually ready to start typing.
But unfortunately it has the side effect that the window is displayed
at a much smaller size before the prompt label appears, and centred on
the screen according to _that_ size - and then we display the prompt
label and the window resizes and is now off-centre. So I think it's
better not to try to be clever, and just make the window come up at
the right size initially.
(Actually, it looks as if nothing in the window is actually drawn
until that whole init function is finished anyway, so the prompt label
_already_ doesn't get physically displayed too early. So the whole
idea was pointless in the first place!)
When displaying a server-side font, the unified font selector's
font-style list box contains some lines which are character-set
headings, and others which are actually selectable font styles. We tag
the former with the "sensitive"=FALSE attribute, to prevent them from
responding to clicks. In GTK2, this also made them visually distinct
from the normal lines, by greying them out; in GTK3 it makes no visual
difference.
The simplest solution is to bold those lines, hinting that they're
sort of section headings. That looks OK in GTK2 as well, so I've done
it unconditionally.
The top-level loop in gtkwin.c which draws text was expecting that the
right way to draw a printing character plus combining characters was
to overprint them one by one on top of each other. This is an OK
assumption for X bitmap fonts, but in Pango, it works very badly -
most obviously because asking Pango to display a combining char on its
own causes it to print a dotted circle representing the base char, but
also because surely there will be character combinations where Pango
wants to do something more sophisticated than just printing them each
at a standard offset, and it would be a shame not to let it.
So I've moved the previous overprinting loop down into the x11font
subclass of the unifont mechanism. The top-level gtkwin.c drawing code
now calls a new method unifont_draw_combining, which in the X11 case
does the same loop as before, but in the Pango case, just passes a
whole base+combinings string to Pango in one go and lets it do the
best job it can.
Touchpad gestures can generate much smoother scrolling events than the
discrete increments of mouse wheels. GDK3 supports this by means of a
new kind of scroll event, with direction GDK_SCROLL_SMOOTH and a
floating-point delta value. Added support for this; so in GTK3 mode,
you can now touchpad-scroll at a granularity of one line rather than
five, but in mouse tracking mode, scroll events are still grouped into
5-line chunks for purposes of turning them into escape sequences to
send to the server.
Apparently, if you don't specify GDK_SMOOTH_SCROLL_MASK in a widget's
event mask, then you don't receive "scroll_event" signals at all, even
of the non-smooth variety that was all GTK2 had. Hence, neither mouse
scroll wheels nor touchpad scroll gestures seem to generate any
response.
Adding GDK_SMOOTH_SCROLL_MASK brings the old scroll events back again,
so this is at least no worse than GTK2 was. But in GTK3 we _ought_ to
be able to do better still, by supporting smooth scrolling from
touchpads; this commit doesn't do that.
If you use the new 'plink -shareexists' feature, then on Unix at least
it's possible for the upstream to receive EPIPE, because the
downstream makes a test connection and immediately closes it, so that
upstream fails to write its version string.
This looks a bit ugly in the upstream's Event Log, so I'm making a
special case: an error of 'broken pipe' type, which occurs on a socket
from a connection sharing downstream, before we've received a version
string from that downstream, is treated as an unusual kind of normal
connection termination and not logged as an error.
A Plink invocation of the form 'plink -shareexists <session>' tests
for a currently live connection-sharing upstream for the session in
question. <session> can be any syntax you'd use with Plink to make the
actual connection (a host/port number, a bare saved session name,
-load, whatever).
I envisage this being useful for things like adaptive proxying - e.g.
if you want to connect to host A which you can't route to directly,
and you might already have a connection to either of hosts B or C
which are viable proxies, then you could write a proxy shell script
which checks whether you already have an upstream for B or C and goes
via whichever one is currently active.
Testing for the upstream's existence has to be done by actually
connecting to its socket, because on Unix the mere existence of a
Unix-domain socket file doesn't guarantee that there's a process
listening to it. So we make a test connection, and then immediately
disconnect; hence, that shows up in the upstream's event log.
When I abandoned GtkDialog for GtkWindow (in dc11417ae), I manually
added a horizontal GtkSeparator between the content and action areas.
Or rather, I tried to - but I forgot that gtk_box_pack_end works in
the opposite order, so that you have to add the bottom-most element
first and then the one you want to appear above it. So my separator
was below the action area, rather than between it and the content
area.
In GTK 3, it was impossible to resize the window smaller than it
started off, because the size request on the drawing area was taken as
a minimum. (I can't actually remember how the GTK 2 version doesn't
have this problem too.)
Fixed by instead setting the initial window size using
gtk_window_set_default_geometry() (having first set up the geometry
hints to reflect the character cell size).
On Windows, colons are illegal in filenames, because they're part of
the path syntax. But colons can appear in automatically constructed
log file names, if an IPv6 address is expanded from the &H placeholder.
Now we coerce any such illegal characters to '.', which is a bit of a
bodge but should at least cause a log file to be generated.
I noticed that Unix PSCP was unwantedly renaming downloaded files
which had a backslash in their names, because pscp.c's stripslashes()
treated \ as a path component separator, since it hadn't been modified
since PSCP ran on Windows only.
It also turns out that pscp.c, psftp.c and winsftp.c all had a
stripslashes(), and they didn't all have quite the same prototype. So
now there's one in winsftp.c and one in uxsftp.c, with appropriate
OS-dependent behaviour, and the ones in pscp.c and psftp.c are gone.
In any DRAWTYPE_CAIRO mode, we now do all our Cairo drawing to a Cairo
image surface which lives on the client; then we either blit directly
from that to the window (if we're in GTK3 mode, or GTK2 without
deprecated pieces of API), or else we blit from the Cairo surface to
the server-side pixmap and then from there to the actual window.
In DRAWTYPE_GDK mode, nothing much has changed: we still draw directly
to the server-side pixmap using the GDK drawing API, then blit from
there to the window. But there is one change, namely that the blit is
no longer done proactively - instead, we queue a redraw of the
affected rectangle, and wait until we're called back by the expose
handler.
The main aim of all this is to arrange that the only time we ever draw
to the real window is in response to expose/draw events. The
experimental GTK3 OS X port stopped working a week or two ago (I
presume in response to an OS update) with the symptoms that attempts
to draw on the window outside the context of a "draw" event handler
just didn't seem to work any more; this change fixes it.
In addition to that benefit, this change also has obvious performance
advantages in principle. No more expensive text rendering in response
to an expose event - just re-copy to the window from the bitmap we
already have, from wherever it's stored that's nearest.
Moreover, this seems to have fixed the significant performance problem
with X server-side fonts under GTK. I didn't expect _that_! I'd
guessed that the approach of downloading character bitmaps and
rendering them manually via Cairo was just inherently slow for some
reason. I've no real idea _why_ this change improves matters so much;
my best guess is that perhaps there's an overhead in each drawing
operation to a GDK Cairo surface, so we win by doing lots of
operations to a much faster image surface and then batching them up
into one GDK Cairo operation. But whyever it is, I'm certainly not
complaining!
(In fact, it now seems to be noticeably _faster_, at least on my usual
local X displays, to draw server-side fonts using that technique than
using the old GDK approach. I may yet decide to switch over...)
Plink sets standard input into nonblocking mode, meaning that read()
from fd 0 in an interactive context will typically return -1 EAGAIN.
But the prompt functions in uxcons.c, used for verifying SSH host keys
and suchlike, were doing an unguarded read() from fd 0, and then
panicking and aborting the session when they got EAGAIN.
Fixed by inventing a wrapper around read(2) which handles EAGAIN but
passes all other errors back to the caller. (Seemed slightly less
dangerous than the stateful alternative of temporarily re-blockifying
the file descriptor.)
When I introduced the KEY_EVENT_DIAGNOSTICS system last month in
commit 769600b22, I somehow didn't notice that it sat next to an
existing system of ifdefs labelled KEY_DEBUGGING, which did some
things worse but some things better.
Now I've expanded both of those into a fairly complete system of
diagnostics (keeping the newer name of KEY_EVENT_DIAGNOSTICS), and
made them use debug() rather than printf() so that in situations where
no standard output is available I can still retrieve the diagnostics
from debug.log.
I turned it into Shift-Return, because I was trying to find out why
the former didn't work on OS X and replaced it with something else
random to see if the code was even being reached. And then, like an
utter doofus, I committed that change as part of a50da0e30.
Rather than trying to get my existing hugely complicated X-style
clipboard code to somehow work with the Quartz GTK back end, I've
written an entirely new and much simpler alternative clipboard handler
usnig the higher-leve GtkClipboard interface. It assumes all clipboard
text can be converted to and from UTF-8 sensibly (which isn't a good
assumption on all front ends, but on OS X I think it's reasonable),
and it talks to GDK_SELECTION_CLIPBOARD rather than PRIMARY, which is
the only clipboard OS X has.
I had to do a fiddly thing to cope with the fact that each call to
gtk_clipboard_set_with_data caused a call to the clipboard clear
function left over from the previous set of data, so I had to avoid
mistaking that for a clipboard-clear for the _new_ data and
immediately deselecting it. I did that by allocating a distinct
placeholder object in memory for each instance of the copy operation,
so that I can tell whether a clipboard-clear is for the current copy
or a previous one.
This is only very basic support which demonstrates successful copying
and pasting is at least possible. For a sensible OS X implementation
we'll need a more believable means of generating a paste UI action
(it's quite easy to find a Mac on which neither Shift-Ins nor the
third mouse button even exists!). Also, after the trouble I had with
the clipboard-clear event, it's a bit annoying to find that it
_doesn't_ seem to get called when another application becomes the
clipboard owner. That may just be something we have to put up with, if
I can't find any reason why it's failing.
If I'm using Option as the Meta key, I want to suppress OS X GTK's
default behaviour of treating it as an AltGr-oid which changes the
keyval and Unicode translation of alphabetic keys. So on OS X I enable
a somewhat bodgy workaround which retranslates from the hardware
keycode as if the Option modifier had not been active at the time, and
use that as the character to prefix Esc to.
This is a bit nasty because I have to hardwire group = 0 in the call
to gdk_keymap_translate_keyboard_state(), whereas in principle what I
wanted was group = (whatever would have resulted from everything else
in the key event other than MOD1). However, in practice, they seem to
be the same, so this will do for the moment.
Personally I like using Command as the Esc-prefixing Meta key in
terminal sessions, because it occupies the same physical keyboard
position as the Alt key that I'm used to using on non-Macs. OS X
Terminal uses Option for that purpose (freeing up Command for the
conventional Mac keyboard shortcuts, of course), so I anticipate
differences of opinion.
Hence, here's a pair of OSX-specific config options which permit a
user to set either, or neither, or both of those modifier keys to
function as the terminal Meta key.
On OS X, apparently, we can't do termios setup on the pty master, so
instead we have to leave it until we've opened the slave fd in the
child process. That works on Linux too, so let's leave it here rather
than having another cumbersome ifdef.
In a UTF-8 pterm, it makes sense to set the IUTF8 flag (on systems
that have one) on the pty device, so that line editing will take
account of UTF-8 multibyte characters.
By retrieving characters' widths using get_extents and not
get_pixel_extents, we can spot when they're not actually an exact
multiple of a pixel, and avoid getting confused by the overall width
of a long string being off by up to a pixel per character.
The Pty that we created in pty_pre_init had its bufchain properly
initialised, but if that one didn't get created, then the one we
create in pty_init did not. Now both should go through the same init
routine.
Now I've moved align_label_left() into gtkmisc.c where gtkask.c can
get at it, we can use it to fix the alignment of the prompt label.
Also, use gtk_label_set_width_chars() to give the label a more or less
sensible width.
Several utility functions I've written over the last few weeks were in
rather random places because I didn't have a central gtkmisc.c to put
them in. Now I've got one, put them there!
They've now deprecated gtk_dialog_get_action_area, because they really
want a dialog box's action area to be filled with nothing but buttons
controlled by GTK which end the dialog with a response code. But we're
accustomed to putting all sorts of other things in our action area -
non-buttons, buttons that don't end the dialog, and sub-widgets that
do layout - and so I think it's no longer sensible to be trying to
coerce our use cases into GtkDialog.
Hence, I'm introducing a set of wrapper functions which equivocate
between a GtkDialog for GTK1 and GTK2, and a GtkWindow with a vbox in
it for GTK3, and I'll lay out the action area by hand.
(Not everything has sensible layout and margins in the new GTK3 system
yet, but I can sort that out later.)
Because the new functions are needed by gtkask.c, which doesn't link
against gtkdlg.c or include putty.h, I've put them in a new source
file and header file pair gtkmisc.[ch] which is common to gtkask and
the main GTK edifice.
When NULL appears in variadic argument lists, it should be cast to the
pointer type that the function will be expecting, because otherwise it
might end up as a type not even the same size as a pointer.
This is a much simpler way to display simple message-box type dialogs,
whose absence I've previously been working around by laboriously
constructing something in my usual style.
We were using it in the main config box to ensure everything expanded
on window resize, but in GTK3 that's the default anyway. And we were
using it to put padding around the edges of the font selector, which
is now done using the "margin" property.
I'm using a slightly more up-to-date GTK version for testing on MacOS,
and it's marked a few more functions as deprecated, among which is
gdk_color_parse(). So now parsing -fg and -bg options has to be done
by two different calls and an ugly #ifdef, depending on GTK version.
If we're not supporting server-side fonts, it's utterly silly to set
one as the default! Instead, we use Pango's guarantee that some
reasonably sensible monospaced font will be made available under the
name "Monospace", and use that at a reasonable default size of 12pt.
Using GTK to run on OS X is going to require several workarounds and
behaviour tweaks to be enabled at various points in the code, and it's
already getting cumbersome to remember what they all are to put on the
command line. Here's a central #define (OSX_GTK) that enables them all
in one go, and a configure option (--with-quartz) that sets it.
As part of this commit, I've also rearranged the #include order in the
GTK source files, so that they include unix.h (which now might be
where NOT_X_WINDOWS gets defined) before they test NOT_X_WINDOWS to
decide whether to include X11 headers.
The Quartz GDK back end, if you press (say) Ctrl-A, will generate a
GdkKeyEvent with keyval='a' and state=CONTROL, but it'll have a
translated string of "a" where the X back end would have returned
"\001". So we have to do our own translation, which fortunately isn't
hard.
OS X for some reason doesn't let my usual fcntl approach (wrapped in
nonblock()) work on pty masters - the fcntl(F_SETFL) fails, with the
(in this context) hilariously inappropriate error code ENOTTY. Work
around it by instead passing O_NONBLOCK to posix_openpt.
OS X dislikes us calling the setuid or setgid syscalls when not
privileged, even if we try to set ourselves to the _same_ uid/gid.
Since I don't anticipate this code needing to run setuid on OS X, and
since I do anticipate wanting to handle multiple ptys in a single
process so that pty_pre_init would be useless anyway, the simplest fix
seems to me to be just conditioning out the whole of pty_pre_init
completely.
On OS X GTK, it requests a preferred width that's way too large. I
think that's because that's based on its max_width_chars rather than
its width_chars (and I only set the latter). But I don't want to
actually reduce its max_width_chars, in case (either now or in a
future version) that causes it to actually refuse to take up all the
space it's allocated.
These should dump out all the important parts of the incoming
GdkEventKey, so that if keys aren't being translated right, it should
be possible to work out something about why not.
To enable: make CPPFLAGS="-DKEY_EVENT_DIAGNOSTICS"
These are a slightly cleaned-up version of the diagnostics I was using
to debug the layout problems in the GTK3 config box the other day. In
particular, if the box comes out far too wide - as I've just found out
that it also does when I compile the current state of the code against
OS X GTK3 - these diagnostics should provide enough information to
figure out which control is the limiting factor.
To enable: make CPPFLAGS="-DCOLUMNS_WIDTH_DIAGNOSTICS"
In shortcut_add(), when we add an underlined letter to a GtkLabel, we
were fetching the label's height before changing its text, and
restoring it afterwards. I've no idea why - I can see no difference
with and without the code.
That code's been there since 2003 without explanation. My best guess
is that it was working around a GTK bug of the day, but since no
difference is visible even in current GTK1, I think I'm just going to
remove it. If any problems show up later, I can put it back, with an
actual comment!
The whole of get_label_text_dimensions() should have been outside the
GTK 2 ifdef; I'd left a gtk_label_set_width_chars() unconditional; and
GDK1's gdk_window_set_background() lacks a const in its prototype.
Serves me right for not test-compiling in all three versions!
My trickery in GTK2 to start with some branches of the tree collapsed
but give the widget all the width it will need when they open later
was not working in GTK3, for the same reason I've needed several other
fixes recently: just after creation, GTK3 widgets report their
preferred size as zero.
Fixed by doing basically the same trick I was doing in GTK2, but
deferring it until the "map" event happens later on.
This was another piece of code that determined text size by
instantiating a GtkLabel and asking for its size, which I had to fix
in gtkfont.c recently because that strategy doesn't work in GTK3.
Replaced the implementation of string_width() with a call to the
function I added in gtkfont.c, and now dialog boxes which depend on
that for their width measurement (e.g. the one in reallyclose()) don't
come out in silly sizes on GTK3 any more.
In cases where two controls sit alongside one another such as a label
alongside an edit box, I've previously been arranging for them to be
vertically centred by fiddling with the size request and alignment of
what I assume will be the shorter control. But now I've written
columns_force_same_height(), that's a much easier approach, and it's
also compatible with GTK3 without using a deprecated method; so this
change switches over all vertical centring to doing it that way.
Also, while I'm here, I noticed that the edit box and button of
CTRL_FILESELECT / CTRL_FONTSELECT were not vertically centred, and
since it's now really easy to make sure they are, I've added another
use of columns_force_same_height() there.
This forces two child widgets of a Columns to occupy the same amount
of vertical space, and if one is really shorter than the other,
vertically centres it in the extra space.
This is an obviously reusable loop over cols->children looking for a
widget, which I'm about to use a couple more times so it seems worth
pulling it out into its own helper function.
gtk_window_resize_to_geometry() allows us to make use of the already-
set-up WM resize hints to immediately figure out how to resize the
window to a particular character cell size, and hence makes a much
simpler implementation of request_resize() than the previous hackery.
Now that I've got the main calculation code separated from the GTK2
size_request and size_allocate top-level methods, I can introduce a
completely different set of GTK3 top-level methods, which run the same
underlying calculations but based on different width and height
information.
So now we do proper height-for-width layout, as you can see if you
flip the PuTTY config box to a pane with a wrapping label on it (e.g.
Fonts or Logging) and resize the window horizontally. Where the GTK2
config box just left the wrapped text label at its original size, and
the GTK3 one before this change would reflow the text but without
changing the label's height, now the text reflows and the controls
below it move up and down when the number of lines of wrapped text
changes.
(As far as I'm concerned, that's a nice demo of GTK3's new abilities
but not a critically important UI feature for this app. The more
important point is that switching to the modern layout model removes
one of the remaining uses of the deprecated gtk_widget_size_request.)
Previously, columns_size_request and columns_size_allocate would each
loop over all the widgets doing computations for both width and
height. Now I've separated out the width parts from the height parts,
and moved both out into four new functions, so that the top-level
columns_size_request and columns_size_allocate are just wrappers that
call the new functions and plumb size and position information between
them and GTK.
Actual functionality should be unchanged by this patch.
Profiling reveals that pterm in Pango rendering mode uses an absurd
amount of CPU when it's not even actually _drawing_ the text, because
of all the calls to pango_layout_get_pixel_extents() while
pangofont_draw_text tries to work out which characters it can safely
draw as part of a long string. Caching the results speeds things up
greatly.
If you're trying to arrange that an array size is large enough for
element n to exist, and you also want to round it up to the next
multiple of 0x100, you must set the size to (n + 0x100) & ~0xFF, and
not (n + 0xFF) & ~0xFF. Put another way, the number you have to round
up is not n, but the minimum size n+1 that causes array[n] to exist.
If you open a pterm on a different display via the --display
command-line option rather than by setting $DISPLAY, I think (and
other terminals seem to agree) that it's sensible to set $DISPLAY
anyway for processes running inside the terminal.
This replaces the old GtkColorSelectionDialog, and has the convenience
advantage that the actual chooser (with all the 'set colour', 'get
colour' methods) and the containing dialog box are now the same object
implementing multiple interfaces, so I don't keep having to call 'get
me the underlying chooser for this dialog' accessors. Also you now
hook into both the OK and Cancel buttons (and all other response
codes) at the same time with a single event.
GtkTable is deprecated; the way of the future is GtkGrid, in which you
don't have to specify the number of rows/columns in advance (it's
worked out dynamically by observing what row/column numbers you
actually attached anything to), and also you handle expansion
behaviour by setting the "hexpand", "vexpand" or "expand" properties
on the child widgets rather than setting flags in the container.
The new way is gdk_display_get_name(gdk_display_get_default()), which
returns a const char * rather than a char *, so I've also had to
fiddle with the prototype and call sites of get_x_display().
(Also included gtkcompat.h into uxputty.c, since that wanted to call
gdk_get_display() but didn't previously include it.)
In GTK3, GtkBox, GtkScrollbar and GtkSeparator are all single classes
with a GtkOrientation parameter, whereas in GTK2 the horizontal and
vertical versions were trivial subclasses of them. Hence, the old
constructors are now deprecated, but _only_ the constructors are
affected, since after constructing one you always used methods of the
superclass on it anyway.
Rather than faff about with an ifdef at every call site, I've just put
some wrapper macros in gtkcompat.h to make it easy to keep this code
similar between all supported GTK versions.
In the case where we deselect the previously selected font (e.g.
because we've just changed the filter settings to remove it from the
list), we were leaving the preview pane in its previous state, which
is fine in GTK2 when it just carries on displaying the last thing
drawn to the backing pixmap but goes wrong in GTK3 where we still have
to actually respond to draw events.
But it makes more conceptual sense anyway to actually empty the
preview pane when no font is selected, so now we do that. So now
unifontsel_draw_preview_text() is called from unifontsel_deselect(),
and also the preview-drawing code will still draw the background
rectangle regardless of whether font != NULL.
The call to gtk_list_store_clear() in unifontsel_setup_familylist()
was causing a call to family_changed() via the GTK signal system,
which didn't happen in GTK2. family_changed() in turn was calling
unifontsel_select_font(), which got confused when the tree model
didn't match reality, and tried to access a bogus tree iterator.
This is easily fixed by using the existing fs->inhibit_response flag,
which prevents us responding to GTK events when we know they were
generated by our own fiddling about with the data; it's just that we
never needed to set it in unifontsel_setup_familylist() before.
Also, added a check of the return value from the key get_iter call in
unifontsel_select_font(), so that it'll at least fail an assertion
rather than actually trying to access bogus memory. But that operation
_should_ still always succeed, and if it doesn't, it's probably a sign
that we need another use of fs->inhibit_response.
It turns out that in GTK3, if you instantiate a GtkLabel and
immediately try to find out its preferred size, you get back zero for
both dimensions. Presumably none of that gets figured out properly
until the widget is displayed, or some such.
However, you can retrieve the PangoLayout from the label immediately
and ask Pango for the dimensions of that. That seems like a bit of a
bodge, but it works! The GTK3 unifont selector now comes out with all
the interface elements in sensible sizes - in particular, the preview
drawing area now has non-zero height.
The config box setup code wants a lot of very narrow edit boxes, so it
decreases their minimum width from the GTK default of 150 pixels. In
GTK 3, we have to do this using gtk_entry_set_width_chars() rather
than gtk_widget_set_size_request() as we were previously using, or it
won't work.
This change by itself seems to restore the GTK3 config box to a
sensible layout, in spite of the fact that my Columns layout class is
still doing all its size allocation the GTK2 way, with no attention
paid to the shiny new GTK3 height-for-width system.
The entire concept has gone away in GTK3, which assumes that everyone
is now using modern true-colour video modes and so there's no longer
any reason you shouldn't just casually make up any RGB triple you like
without bothering to ask the display system's permission.
GDK3 now spells both of those as GDK_WINDOW_XID. (Of course 'drawable'
is no longer a relevant concept in GDK3, since pixmaps are no longer
supported and so all drawables are just windows.) We keep backwards
compatibility, of course.
It's been replaced by a new pair of methods get_preferred_width and
get_preferred_height. For the moment, I've followed the porting
guide's suggestion of keeping the old size_request function as an
underlying implementation and having each of those methods just return
one of its outputs. The results are ugly, but it'll compile and run,
which is a start.
This replaces GTK 1/2's "expose_event", and provides a ready-made
cairo_t to do the drawing with. My previous work has already separated
all constructions of a cairo_t from the subsequent drawing with it, so
the new draw event handlers just have to call the latter without the
former.
