This new warning adds a lot of warnings in the Cappuccino frameworks. I have turned off
the warning in the Jakefiles when compiling most of the Cappuccino frameworks. But it is
on as default for any user projects.
So there is also a new feature to turn off/on warnings as a compiler flag.
These flags are (all flags are on as default):
-Wunused-but-set-variable Warning when a local variable is never read.
-Wshadow-ivar Warning when a local variable is shadowing an instance variable for the class.
-Wcreate-global-inside-function-or-method Warning when creating a global variable inside a function or method.
-Wunknown-class-or-global Warning when a class or global variable is not known.
-Wunknown-ivar-type Warning when the type for an instance variable is not known.
To turn off a flag add a 'no-' prefix. Example: -Wno-unused-but-set-variable
For an example how to use it in a Jakefile please look at the Jakefiles in this commit.
An example:
var array = @[ @{@"Name": @"1"},
@{@"Name": @"2", @"approveTime": @"Now"}
];
var predicate = [CPPredicate predicateWithFormat:@"approveTime != nil"];
CPLog(@"result: %@", [array filteredArrayUsingPredicate:predicate]); // result: <empty array>
If I run this in Cappuccino I get an empty array
If I run it in Cocoa on a Mac I get:
result: (
{
Name = 2;
approveTime = Now;
}
Calculations of the visible rect can be a heavy operation as it depends of the superviews
visible rect. They have to be transformed and intersected together to create the result.
This calculation is a recursive operation that travels up the view hierarchy all the way
to the top.
Updating the tracking areas is also a recursive operation. But it travels down the view hierarchy
instead. It will calculate the new tracking area using the visible rect for the current view. For
each view it updates it will get the visible rect that has to travel all the way up the view
hierarchy to calculate it by transform and intersect them together. This results in that the visible
rect will be calculated for each view multible times. This makes it a very slow operation, specially
for deeper view hierarchies.
This fix will send along the visible rect for the superview when traveling down the
view hierarchy. This means that the visible rect does not need to travel up the view hierarchy
to be calculated. It will just need transform and intersect the provided rect for its superview
with the one from itself.
This makes updating views much faster when they need layout. This will make resizing browser window and changing split views sizes much smoother.
The effectiveAppearance is inherited from the superview. The superviews appearance is passed along as it is recomputed down the view hierarchy.
Also the current appearance is saved on each view to make it possible to only change the theme states when the appearance is changed.
This speed improvement is very notable when resizing a browser window of altering the size of split views.
The fix uses a variable on the window to control when to update the tracking areas.
If the view is not connected to a window the tracking areas will not be updated as they will
be when added to a window.
This pull request adds a kvoValueForKey: method used by _CPKVOForwardingObserver for getting values.
The default action is to just return the valueForKey value.
Override this method if you want any other behavior.
It can be used to just return nil if you are implementing a lazy load behavior on a class.
It can allow a combined binding to observe this object without trigger any lazy loading.
The default was to make the first window in the most background layer the key window if nothing else was used.
This does not work well if there is a modal window that should have all the attention.
This solution will first choose the modal window if in modal mode. If not the old variant is used.
There was a problem introduced by pull request #2600 when trying to select and copy text in a selectable text field.
The problem only occurs when the text field is in a modal window.
It was caused by the modal run loop that is present as an eventListener on the CPApplication when in modal mode. It will
force a bail out from the sendEvent: method in CPApplication when trying to handle the event. As the check for key
equivalent is moved down by the #2600 pull request it will never be allowed to handle a copy command from the browser
menu or key equivalent.
The solution is to allow the text field to handle the event if it is selectable. This will also allow the text selection
to be altered from the keyboard with keys like shift-left/right/up/down arrow. Combinations like shift-option arrow also
work for whole word selection.
FIXED: Add Dark Mode to XcodeCapp
This commit also fixes an issue where two NSBox instances had a borderRadius of 100 (boxStatus and boxImport) in IB. The borderRadius values are now updated to be half the size of the height and width values, restoring the circle visual.
Update installation directory for XcodeCapp
- Replace $LOCAL_APPS_DIR with $USER_APPS_DIR
- Installation directory updated from /Applications to ~/Applications
This was present in a CPTextView.
A press on caps lock should also result in a flagsChanged event.
An event should have the corresponding flag for caps lock in modifierFlags.
This prevents a buildup of large arrays with a lot of values and then choose one row and throw away the rest. This is great for speed and a must for lazy loading.
Previous there was a optimization for this but it was only effective for short combined key path like 'a.b'. This pull request makes it effective for any kind of length of a combined key path like 'a.b.c.d...'.
This is done by returning the object at a row in the first found CPArray in the key path
that is divided in a first and second part.
The first part is never a combined key path. The second part can be a combined key path.
If this optimization is not done we will create an array with the valueForKeyPath value on each row and then pick
the wanted value for the row and throw away all the other rows. It is much more effective to first
pick the row and then do the valueForKeyPath on the rest of the key path.
The msgSend function has always returned nil if the receiver has been nil or undefined.
Example:
var a = undefined;
var b = [a someSelector]; // b = nil
The variable b is now nil.
This pull request adds the ability for the msgSend function to return undefined if the receiver is undefined. If the receiver is nil it still return nil.
The above example again:
var a = undefined;
var b = [a someSelector]; // b = undefined
The variable b is now undefined.
Background.
The use of nil in Objective-C corresponds to the use of null in C and C++ and stands for "no value". A fundamental function in Objective-C is when you send a message to a receiver that is nil the result is again a nil value. This can be very convenient as you don't need the check if a receiver is nil before sending a message to it.
Objective-J adds the ability the use class structures and message send functionality for Javascript in the same way as Objective-C adds this to C and C++. Javascript also has the value null and is handled in the same way for Objective-J. Javascript also has the value undefined that stands for "not yet defined". This can sometimes be confusing and many try to handle null and undefined as the same thing. This is almost what Objective-J and the Cappuccino frameworks always has been doing. They try to always check for both null and ``undefined and always return nil but never undefined. We can say that Objective-J understands undefined but will try to translate it to nil.
Why do we need this change.
Javascript has both null and undefined and Objective-J is a superset of Javascript. It is now very hard to use undefined in Objective-J code as it will always try to translate it to nil. There are some Javascript libraries that use both null and undefined values and they are very hard to use from Objective-J programs today. Same if you decide to use nil and undefined as a value in your own Objective-J code. This small change will make undefined a full member of the Objective-J language. It should be as it is a superset of Javascript. The Cappuccino frameworks will still handle undefined but only return nil.
How will it impact.
Today most methods will never return undefined so this is a very limited problem. If any does this the main concern is if some code will only check for nil and not undefined.
Example:
var a = [someObject someSelector];
If (a === nil) a = 42;
...
If the variable someObject contains undefined the variable a will now be set to undefined instead of nil. But the variable a will then never be set to 42.
The correct way is to check for both nil and undefined like this:
var a = [someObject someSelector];
If (a == nil) a = 42;
