Whew, a complete overhaul of my previous complete overhaul. Changes in no particular order:
- Redesigned the About box.
- Converted tabs to spaces.
- Using Lumberjack for (much better) logging. When debugging, copious logging goes only to Xcode's console, not to the system log. In the release build, only basic info and errors goes to the system log.
- Reformatted the help using Pages, it's a PDF now (so I can use better fonts).
- Massive optimization across the board. All time-consuming operations are done with NSOperation, which uses Grand Central Dispatch, and can be interrupted. So the XCC menu remains fully responsive during source processing.
- Updates to the Xcode project are coalesced so only one read/update/write operation is done.
- Instead of launching a shell and reading the .profile, the target executable is directly launched, but it must reside somewhere in the default binary path + /usr/local/bin:/usr/local/narwhal/bin:~/bin. If jsc, python, objj and nib2cib cannot be found in that path, the user is alerted and XCC quits.
- Added a preference (true by default) to automatically load the Xcode project when a project is opened.
- Added a preference to turn off per-file processing notifications.
- Added a hidden preference to set the log level. Useful for debugging a user's release build.
- Redesigned the Preferences window.
- Renamed some methods/properties, eliminated some unused properties.
- All of the windows remember their position.
- Moved the fsevent_callback into XcodeCapp.m.
- Fixed a bug in mod_pbxproj.py not setting the type of PBXFileReferences which are directories to "folder".
- Added support for categories in parser.j. Woo-hoo!
- Rewrote pbxprojModifier.py to use a class.
- Renamed the Xcode project group names to "Cocoa Classes" and "Cappuccino Source". Within "Cappuccino Source", framework code is kept in a "Frameworks" group.
- Shadow filenames are all project-relative now, thus *much* shorter.
- pbxprojModifier.py keeps the groups and files in the project in sorted order: Resource folders are at the top, followed by Cocoa Classes, followed by Cappuccino Source. Within Cocoa Classes, non-framework files come first, followed by framework files, followed by xcc_general_include.h.
- If either .XcodeSupport or the .xcodeproj is missing, the other is regenerated to ensure they stay in sync.
- A compatibility version for .XcodeSupport is stored inside it in Info.plist. If that version < the app's compatibility version, the project is reset. This ensures that format changes in the future will not result in projects in an unknown state.
- If the Xcode project cannot be opened, the user is alerted and given the option of regenerating the project.
- Resetting the project deletes all .cibs to force the .xibs to be regenerated.
- All possible FSEvents are dealt with individually now, and in a way that (hopefully) maintains sync between Cappuccino and XCC.
- A file descriptor to the Xcode project is kept open so that If the project path changes it can be relocated. If it does move, the user is alerted ad given the option of reloading the project or quitting.
- If one of the watched paths changes, the project is reloaded.
- Xcode creates temporary files, they are properly filtered out now when handling FSEvents.
- NSRegularExpression was being used before, but that is OS X 10.7 only. NSPredicate is used instead now.
-
Now if either .XcodeSupport or the .xcodeproj is missing, both are recreated to ensure they are in sync.
Also, when trying to open the Xcode project, if it is missing or cannot be opened, an alert is displayed and the user is given the option of regenerating the project.
Some code cleanup as well.
The first defense against this is to validate the recent menu items to ensure they exist and are directories. If not, the item is disabled.
The next time a project is opened, the missing project is pruned from the recent menu.
The second defense is a check when an attempt is made to open a project.
FILE.exists was being used to test for the existence of the symlink in /Applications, but that doesn't work.
The correct way is to use ln -sfh. Note that the -h was missing before, which prevents an existing target symlink from being followed, which is why the symlink would end up inside XcodeCapp.app.
When saving a xib, Xcode creates a temporary file with the name <filename>~.xib. The file event listener would sometimes pick this up and XcodeCapp would attempt to process it, but by the time nib2cib was launched it would be gone, generating an error.
Now .xib files whose filenames end with ~ are ignored.
- Renamed XcodeSupport to .XcodeSupport.
- Added "Reset Project" to menu, it closes the project in Xcode if necessary, removes .XcodeSupport and .xcodeproj, then reloads.
- Added separate preferences for showing errors panel on warnings/errors. You may not want to see the panel if there are category warnings.
- New status icons (again).
- If an error occurs, the status icon turns red when all processing is done.
- Reworked notifications. Objective-J parsing is notified when done. Xib conversion notifies at beginning and end, because it typically takes a few seconds. Individual file notifications are suppressed if a project is being loaded.
The effect is that each minor point release (3.1 -> 3.2) will cause the help to display the first time it is launched, so that the user is encouraged to find out what is new.
XcodeCapp would add a folder reference in the project for user framework Resources directories in Frameworks/Debug, but it didn't add references for framework Resources directories in Frameworks/Source.
- Accidentally deleted the Jakefile. It has been restored, and fixed the case where it would put a symlink to XcodeCapp.app within XcodeCapp.app.
- Minor changes to remove compiler warnings.
Previously any .xcodecapp-ignore file within the monitored directories would be parsed. This commit ensures that only the project's root .xcodecapp-ignore file is parsed.
Previously the number of recent projects was unbounded, which made the recent menu unwieldy.
Now the recent projects list is pruned to the maximum set in the preferences, which defaults to 20.
- Updated project to Xcode 4.
- Reorganized files into preferred Xcode 4 hierarchy.
- Updated code to use properties.
- Eliminated unused/redundant code.
- Significantly optimized project scans.
- Added support for outlets, actions and resources in user frameworks.
- Now using bindings throughout.
- New application icon, Retina ready.
- New status menu icons.
- Reorganized menu.
- Added Preferences… menu item.
- Parsing errors and nib2cib errors are actually logged to the errors panel now.
- When an error occurs, the errors panel automatically opens, unless the "Automatically open Errors & Warnings panel" preference is off.
- Double-clicking an error or selecting an error and clicking Open opens the error in the preferred editor for .j files (or Xcode for .xibs). The cursor jumps to the offending line in the following editors: Sublime Text, TextWrangler, BBEdit, TextMate, Chocolate, MacVim.
- The Errors panel now remembers its position/size.
- When a project is loaded, the errors panel is cleared.
- When a file is modified, any pre-existing errors for that file are removed.
- Updated to Growl framework 2.0.1.
- If Notification Center is available (OS X 10.8+), that is used instead of Growl.
- .xcodecapp-ignore now supports ignoring a directory by suffixing the name with "/".
- .xcodecapp-ignore now supports include expressions prefixed with "!".
- Significantly optimized filename matching against ignored paths.
- .XcodeSupport has been renamed XcodeSupport to make it visible, so that trashing it is easier if things get out of sync.
- The template Xcode project now contains no frameworks or targets, so Xcode does not show any warnings or errors, and the user cannot accidentally try to build.
- Removing a file now removes the file from the Xcode project.
- Shadow files replace forward slash with U+2215 (DIVISION SLASH), which looks like forward slash but is a character that is extremely unlikely to be in a filename.
Previously error messages would always be colorized, which doesn't work well if you are piping the output.
Passing --no-colors turns off all colors in the output.
* State *
Previously the Converter class needlessly copied a whole bunch of state from the Nib2Cib class, which was not only poor factoring, but made for easy omissions of state when instantiating a new Converter, such as was done in NSNib.j.
This commit pushes all state not specific to Converter up to Nib2Cib. This allowed removal of redundant code in NSNib -NS_initWithCoder.
* Resources *
Previously it was not possible to use custom images that were located in a framework, because only the app's Resources directory was searched.
This commit automatically searches all frameworks for Resources directories. When a custom image is specified in Xcode, first the app's Resources directory is searched, then all framework Resource directories. Alternately, the specific framework to use can be specified in Xcode by using the form framework@image.
At runtime, the framework is loaded by its identifier (as specified in Info.plist), and if there is no identifier, by searching next to the current AppKit framework.
All of this renders the nib2cib -R option completely obsolete, so it was removed from the NibApplication/Jakefile template.
This fix adds two keys to the default Info.plist in the capp gen template for NibApplication, "CPBundleVersion" and "CPHumanReadableCopyright". These are introduced primarily to fill out the fields in the default "About" panel. (see #1896)
With the death of Atlas CIB files can no longer be edited directly. This commit replaces a CIB-only version of "AppKit/Resources/AboutPanel.cib" with a XIB-derived one that can be edited in Xcode.
This commit also moves some of the formatting of the about panel into the IB file (c.f. the FIXME note).
Previously no default principal class was declared in Info.plist for a framework.
This commit declares the principal class to be the same as the main framework class created with capp gen -t Framework.
Previously, if a CFBundle with the given identifier had been loaded, but no CPBundle had yet been created with the given identifier, -bundleWithIdentifier would return nil instead of a newly constructed CPBundle with the CFBundle's URL.
This commit correctly returns a newly constructed CPBundle when a CFBundle is found.
CFBundle internally stores its URL in relative form, and returned that relative URL in the bundleURL() function. However, in Cocoa an absolute URL is returned. It is reasonable to assume an absolute URL would be expected by some asking for the bundle's URL. Even within CFBundle, most times bundleURL() is called it is followed with absoluteURL().
This commit returns an absolute URL from bundleURL().
Previously the CPDatePicker didn't work with the action and target. Now each time the dateValue changed, the given action is sent to the target.
This commit fix also a bug with moving with tab and the arrows. Before, the left arrow worked liked a tab when the firstElementTextField was selected in a textual CPDatePicker.
Test app in Tests/Manual/CPDatePicker.
