I've also moved it out into gtkwin.c, because it seemed easier to do
the 'find existing instance of this dialog and raise it' dance there
than to split it across source files pointlessly.
Apart from the specific benefit of non-modality, this also makes it a
lot simpler compared to the previous code! I'm not completely sure why
I wasn't using the standard gtkdlg.c message box system all along.
This fits into a new dialog-box slot (because it might have to come up
at the same time as a network prompt), and makes use of the existing
callback system in logging.c which buffers the logging data until the
user says what they want done with it.
Now it has several 'slots', each named for a particular class of
subsidiary dialog box that a session window can have at most one of,
and register_network_prompt_dialog has a more general name and takes
an enum-typed argument identifying a slot. This lets me avoid writing
a zillion annoyingly similar function pairs and corresponding snippets
of cleanup code in delete_inst.
This follows exactly the same pattern as for verify_ssh_host_key, but
the results of the dialog box are simpler (a plain yes-no response),
so the two dialog types can share a callback.
I've switched it to using the new non-modal create_message_box, and
provided a callback function which handles the cleanup afterwards.
I had expected this to be a lot more work, because I'd imagined that
I'd have to contort the coroutines in ssh.c to give them the ability
to wait for an asynchronously delivered result from that user prompt.
But in fact that wasn't necessary, because just such a mechanism has
been sitting there unused since commit 8574822b9 in 2005, when I added
it as part of my _previous_ attempt to write an OS X front end! (The
abandoned one written in native ObjC + Cocoa.)
If a dialog box is destroyed by the program before the user has
pressed one of the result-delivering buttons - e.g. because the parent
window closes so the dialog is no longer relevant to anything anyway -
then dlgparam_destroy would never call the client code's provided
callback. That makes sense in terms of the callback wanting to _take
action_ based on the result of the dialog box, but it ignores the
possibility that the callback may simply need to free its own context
structure.
So now dlgparam_destroy always calls the client's callback, even if
the result it passes is negative (meaning 'the user never got round to
pressing any of the dialog-ending buttons'), and all the existing
client callbacks handle the negative-result case by doing nothing
except freeing any allocated memory they might have.
This does the bulk of the work previously done by message_box()
proper, but takes a pointer to a result-reporting callback function
identical to the one we pass to create_config_box().
The modal version of message_box() still exists and is a small wrapper
on this function, running its own subsidiary gtk_main() loop which the
result callback terminates. But now I can start switching over
individual uses of message_box() to the non-modal version, and when
that's done, remove the modal function completely.
Now, in place of a variadic argument list with four parameters per
button and a terminating NULL, it takes a pointer to a struct which in
turn contains an (array,length) pair of small per-button structures.
In the process I've renamed the function from messagebox() to
message_box(). Partly that was just because it gave me a convenient
way to search the source for calls I hadn't converted yet, but also
I've thought for a while that that missing underscore didn't really
match the rest of my naming.
NFCI. Partly this minor refactor has the virtue that we can reuse the
more common button layouts without having to type them in at multiple
places in the code (and, indeed, I've provided buttons_yn and
buttons_ok for easy reuse, and could easily provide other things like
yesnocancel any time I need them). But mostly it's because I'm about
to split up message_box into multiple functions, and this saves me the
hassle of deciding which ones to make variadic and which to pass an
actual va_list to - particularly since messagebox() used to go over
its variadic argument list twice, which always makes delegating it to
another function that much more annoying.
Now every call to do_config_box is replaced with a call to
create_config_box, which returns immediately having constructed the
new GTK window object, and is passed a callback function which it will
arrange to be called when the dialog terminates (whether by OK or by
Cancel). That callback is now what triggers the construction of a
session window after 'Open' is pressed in the initial config box, or
the actual mid-session reconfiguration action after 'Apply' is pressed
in a Change Settings box.
We were already prepared to ignore the re-selection of 'Change
Settings' from the context menu of a window that already had a Change
Settings box open (and not accidentally create a second config box for
the same window); but now we do slightly better, by finding the
existing config box and un-minimising and raising it, in case the user
had forgotten it was there.
That's a useful featurelet, but not the main purpose of this change.
The mani point, of course, is that now the multi-window GtkApplication
based front ends now don't do anything confusing to the nesting of
gtk_main() when config boxes are involved. Whether you're changing the
settings of one (or more than one) of your already-running sessions,
preparing to start up a new PuTTY connection, or both at once, we stay
in the same top-level instance of gtk_main() and all sessions' top-
level callbacks continue to run sensibly.
This shows the build platform (32- vs 64-bit in particular, and also
whether Unix GTK builds were compiled with or without the X11 pieces),
what compiler was used to build the binary, and any interesting build
options that might have been set on the make command line (especially,
but not limited to, the security-damaging ones like NO_SECURITY or
UNPROTECT). This will probably be useful all over the place, but in
particular it should allow the different Windows binaries to be told
apart!
Commits 21101c739 and 2eb952ca3 laid the groundwork for this, by
allowing the various About boxes to contain free text and also
ensuring they could be copied and pasted easily as part of a bug
report.
If you're connecting to a new server and it _only_ provides host key
types you've configured to be below the warning threshold, it's OK to
give the standard askalg() message. But if you've newly demoted a host
key type and now reconnect to some server for which that type was the
best key you had cached, the askalg() wording isn't really appropriate
(it's not that the key we've settled on is the first type _supported
by the server_, it's that it's the first type _cached by us_), and
also it's potentially helpful to list the better algorithms so that
the user can pick one to cross-certify.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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 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.
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.
GTK 2 has deprecated it and provided no replacement; a bug tracker
entry I found on the subject suggested that it was functionality that
didn't really belong in GTK, and glib ought to provide a replacement
instead, which would be a perfectly fine thing to suggest if they had
waited for glib to get round to doing so *before* throwing out a
function people were actually using. Sigh.
Anyway, it turns out that subsidiary invocations of gtk_main() don't
happen inside GTK as far as I can see, so all I need to do is to make
sure my own invocations of gtk_main() are followed by a cleanup
function which runs any quit functions that I've registered.
That was the last deprecated GTK function, so we now build cleanly
with -DGTK_DISABLE_DEPRECATED. (But, as mentioned a couple of commits
ago, we still don't build with -DGDK_DISABLE_DEPRECATED, because that
has migrating to Cairo drawing as a prerequisite.)
Now that I've got a general place to centralise handling of at least
the simple differences between GTK 1 and 2, I should use it wherever
possible. So this commit removes just a small number of ifdefs which
are either obsoleted by definitions already in gtkcompat.h (like
set_size_request vs set_usize), or can easily be replaced by adding
another (e.g. gtk_color_selection_set_has_opacity_control).
Building with -DGTK_DISABLE_DEPRECATED, we now suffer only one compile
failure, for the use of gtk_quit_add() in idle_toplevel_callback_func.
That function is apparently removed with no replacement in GTK 3, so
I'll need to find a completely different approach to getting toplevel
callbacks to run only in the outermost instance of gtk_main().
Also, this change doesn't do anything about the use of *GDK*
deprecated functions, because those include the entire family of
old-style drawing functions - i.e. the only way to build cleanly with
-DGDK_DISABLE_DEPRECATED will be to switch to Cairo drawing.
I've put in a special #define to control this selection, in case I
decide that for reasons of taste I'd prefer to switch back to
GtkFileSelection in GTK2 which supports both!
Replaces the deprecated gtk_color_selection_set_color() which took an
array of four doubles (RGBA), and instead takes a 'GdkColor' struct
containing four 16-bit integers.
For GTK1, we still have to retain the original version.
All the things like GtkType, GtkObject, gtk_signal_connect and so on
should now consistently have the new-style glib names like GType,
GObject, g_signal_connect, etc.
A major aim of introducing GTK 3 support is to permit compiling for
non-X11 platforms that GTK 3 supports, so I'm going to need to be able
to build as a pure GTK application with no use of X11 internals.
Naturally, I don't intend to stop supporting the hybrid GTK+X11 mode
in which X server-side bitmap fonts are available.
Use of X11 can be removed by compiling with -DNOT_X_WINDOWS. That's
the same compatibility flag that was already used by the unfinished OS
X port to disable the X-specific parts of uxpty.c; now it just applies
to more source files.
(There's no 'configure' option to set this flag at present. I haven't
worked out whether we'll need one yet.)
