The algorithm I came up with is O(n^2) but given the small numbers of rects
we're typically working with, it doesn't really matter. May need to revisit
this in the future if we find ourselves with a huge number of rects.
To facilitate listening for action on arbitrary file descriptors,
I've added a GNotifier class. It's quite simple but very useful:
GNotifier notifier(fd, GNotifier::Read);
notifier.on_ready_to_read = [this] (GNotifier& fd) {
// read from fd or whatever else you like :^)
};
The callback will get invoked by GEventLoop when select() says we
have something to read on the fd.
My needs are really quite simple, so I'm just going to add what I need
as I go along. The first thing I needed was a simple box layout with
widgets being able to say whether they prefer fixed or fill for both
their vertical and horizontal sizes.
I also made a simple GStatusBar so FileManager can show how many bytes
worth of files are in the current directory.
This widget is far from finished, but it's off to a good start.
Also added a GResizeEvent and GWidget::resize_event() so that widgets
can react to being resized.
Previously we'd blit every pixel in every window that intersected any dirty
rect to the back buffer. With this patch, we limit ourselves to blitting the
pixels inside the actual dirty rects.
There's still a lot of optimizations to make in this code.
