Now that we can set icons directly "by bitmap", there's no need for passing
around the icon paths anymore, so get rid of all the IPC and API related
to that. :^)
Now that we support more than 2 clients per shared buffer, we can use them
for window icons. I didn't do that previously since it would have made the
Taskbar process unable to access the icons.
This opens up some nice possibilities for programmatically generated icons.
Use CLocalServer to listen for connections in WindowServer and AudioServer.
This allows us to accept incoming CLocalSocket objects from the CLocalServer
and construct client connections based on those.
Removed COpenedSocket since it's replaced by CLocalSocket.
Instead of LibGUI and WindowServer building their own copies of the drawing
and graphics code, let's it in a separate LibDraw library.
This avoids building the code twice, and will encourage better separation
of concerns. :^)
Sticking these in a namespace allows us to use a more generic
("Connection") term without clashing, which is way easier to understand
than to try to come up with unique names for both.
Taskbar now simply asks the WindowServer to popup a window menu when right
clicking on a taskbar button.
This patch also implements the "close" menu item, and furthermore makes the
window menu show up when you left-click a window's titlebar icon. :^)
GWindow::move_to_front() can now be used to move a window to the top of
the window stack.
We use this in Terminal to bring the settings window to the front if it
already exists when it's requested, in case it's hiding behind something.
Also run it across the whole tree to get everything using the One True Style.
We don't yet run this in an automated fashion as it's a little slow, but
there is a snippet to do so in makeall.sh.
Use this in Terminal to tell the window server to not bother with the alpha
channel in the backing store if we're running without transparency.
Semi-transparent terminals look neat but they slow everything down, so this
keeps things fast while making it easy to switch to the flashy mode. :^)
This widget is automatically included in GStatusBar, but can be added in
any other place, too. When clicked (with the left button), it initiates a
window resize (using a WM request.)
In this patch I also fixed up some issues with override cursors being
cleared after the WindowServer finishes a drag or resize.
To get truly atomic updates, add a mechanism for passing arbitrary amounts
of extra data along with WindowServer messages. This allows us to pass all
the rects in a single message.
This patch moves to sending up to 32 rects at a time when coordinating the
painting between WindowServer and its clients. Rects are also merged into
a minimal DisjointRectSet on the server side before painting.
Interactive resize looks a lot better after this change, since we can
usually do all the repainting needed in one go.
This was pretty straightforward thanks to the work I did separating out
LibCore from LibGUI already. :^)
- WSMessageLoop now inherits from CEventLoop.
- WSMessage now inherits from CEvent.
- WSMessageReceiver goes away.
Now there is only one event loop in Serenity. Very nice!
The enabled state of a GAction now propagates both to any toolbar buttons
and any menu items linked to the action. Toolbar buttons are painted in
a grayed out style when disabled. Menu items are gray when disabled. :^)
I originally thought I would do this inside WindowServer, but let's try to
make it as a standalone app that communicates with WindowServer instead.
That will allow us to use LibGUI. :^)
Now that everything is nice and mature, the WindowServer can just use the
client PID it receives in the Greeting message, and we can get rid of this
hacky ioctl. :^)
