All comments are welcome.
We try to group things by topic and in decreasing order of importance.
Please feel free to re-arrange if that seems like a good idea.
All of these fixes have already been checked into the 2.1.x branch of
LyX's git repository. The repository can be cloned via:
git clone git://git.lyx.org/lyx
For more details on how to use the repository, please visit:

What's new
==========
** Updates:
***********
* DOCUMENT INPUT/OUTPUT
Backup the existing LyX file before attempting to write the new one. This avoids dataloss in case we are unable to write the new one after all. A more sophisticated approach, due to Georg, is in master, but it needs more testing that it will be able to get before the release of 2.1.1. That should be committed to 2.1.x when it is ready and this patch backed out again.

* TEX2LYX IMPROVEMENTS
* USER INTERFACE
Add some postscript and pdf viewers for Unix and Windows. For Windows: AcroRd32, SumatraPDF and gsview (both 32 and 64 bit versions). For Unix: qpdfview. Qpdfview is a nice alternative to Okular for KDE users and a superior alternative to Evince for Gnome users, due to its complete synctex support. It only depends on Qt libraries for the graphical interface.
2014-08-03 17:26:34 +00:00
- Detect some additional postscript and pdf viewers when they are on the
system PATH (AcroRd32, SumatraPDF, gsview and qpdfview).

* BUILD/INSTALLATION
Use getent instead of grepping /etc/passwd. Forthcoming versions of cygwin will use a different mechanism for obtaining passwd/group information based on /etc/nsswitch.conf. Thus, it will not be guaranteed that the files /etc/passwd and /etc/group even exist. The recommended way for obtaining those info is by using the getent command, which already works in current versions.
2014-08-03 16:59:54 +00:00
- On Cygwin, use getent instead of grepping /etc/passwd for determining
the user's home directory when launching LyX through the gui wrapper.

** Bug fixes:
*************
* DOCUMENT INPUT/OUTPUT
Possible fix for the mystery crash, which is bug #9049. Investigation of bug #9236 showed that crash to be due to a Paragraph's holding a dangling pointer to an old and deleted Layout after the DocumentClass was reset. Since the backtraces look almost identical, it seems likely that we have the same problem here. Since this crash seems almost always to involve tables, I looked at the code in switchBetweenClasses() and found that the Paragraphs that belong to "hidden" table cells are not seen by the initial recursion using a ParIterator: It skips right over them. This was confirmed by test code suggested by Enrico, with results reported in Trac. The present patch attempts to deal with this problem in the second recursion, over Insets. When we see an InsetTabular, we call a new routine that recurses through the cells, looking for hidden ones. If it finds a hidden one, it then resets the Layout for the cell's Paragraphs (there should be only one, but we do not make any assumptions) to the PlainLayout that belongs to the new DocumentClass. This is good enough, since such cells never have content. There is extensive discussion of the patch here: https://www.mail-archive.com/lyx-devel@lists.lyx.org/msg185095.html Additional testing by Enrico and me confirmed the existence of the dangling pointer. (cherry picked from commit 54c2ab2732f8094c0c119618d5b0e9a625ffb262)

- Fix import of latex documents with scaled fonts.
Do not corrupt documents without newline at EOF trim_eol() assumes that a line always ends either with \n, \r, or \r\n. This assumption is always valid except for the last line of a document, since it may miss the trailing newline. LyX does not create such documents, bu they may result from automatic creation tools, and LyX can read them, so lyx2lyx should be able to read them as well. (cherry picked from commit c75c6e446a8bc0dbaabaf156c0abfd622c050129) Fix the fix MAC-style (pre-OS X) line ends were not recognized anymore (cherry picked from commit 55af9cb006563032e35fcc8bc5c8c1284c0344da)

* LYX2LYX
Do not forget last word of paragraph in completion With the old code, the last word of a paragraph would not be added in the completion list. The key difference is to pass `from' instead of `pos' to FontList::fontiterator. Slight cleanup of the code.
2014-05-16 13:17:10 +00:00
- Fix warning "Missing \use_indices" when converting from 1.6.x format
or older.
Fix bug #9162: Missing \use_indices The lyx2lyx conversion for format 352 was incomplete: It should have been added the \use_indices setting, but it relied on the fact that the default in LyX for missing \use_indices is the same as the old format without that setting used. However, the default might change in the future, and later lyx2lyx conversions rely on that setting as well.

- Fix listings inset parameter validation when font size is selected
(bug 8144).
- Fix listings validator with regard to aboveskip and belowskip (bug 7373).
Fix bug #9151 (Wrong reverse search for images and tables). If the reverse position corresponds to an inset, its paragraph id does not follow the main text numbering. Typically, an inset has only a few paragraphs, so that we would jump near the beginning of the document. Now the cursor in LyX jumps to the right spot.
2014-08-03 14:47:22 +00:00
- Fix reverse search in insets (figures, tables, branches, etc.) (bug 9151).
Fix bug #9146 (Graphics conversion problem). If LyX does not know about a given file format, it may easily happen that the format is recognized as "latex" and this causes bug #9146. This patch limits the check for a latex format to non-binary files. The strategy for deciding that a file has binary content is the same as that adopted by the "less" program. This is a stripped down backport of the more complex fix in master.
2014-08-04 16:52:20 +00:00
- Fix on-screen display of images whose type is not known to LyX (bug 9146).
Fix the -geometry command line argument for Windows. The command line argument -geometry WIDTHxHEIGHT±XOFF±YOFF specifies a preferred size and location for the main window. Currently, this is semi-broken on Windows. Indeed, only specifying WIDTH and HEIGHT places the main window such that the left and top borders are invisible such that the window cannot be moved. Moreover, the XOFF and YOFF parts (when present) are used to specify the distance of the window from the left and top or right and bottom edges of the screen, when using '+' or '-', respectively. However, -geometry 800x600-20-20, instead of placing the window such that its bottom and right edges are at a distance of 20 pixels from the corresponding screen edges, places the window such that its left and top borders are out of the screen. This is corrected by this commit.

- Improve thread-safety.
- Fix potential bug spotted by cppcheck.
Make theWordList() thread safe. Without this, you get crashes in a few second when you set the autosave interval to one second and edit quickly (typing new words etc). The reason is that the cloned buffer wants to insert words into the word list and remove them again, but it lives in a different thread.
2014-07-06 16:12:57 +00:00
Fix bugs 9190 and 9193. The conversion from floating point to string performed by boost:lexical_cast does not allow specifying a precision and, for example, values such as 0.9 are returned as 0.899999976. The standard C++ way for performing the conversion is using std::ostringstream which is exempt from this problem, even if less efficient. For the sake of accuracy, boost::lexical_cast is ditched in favor of the ostrinsgstream implementation. In C++11 another option would be using std::to_string, but I think it is not as efficient as the boost way and not worth implementing through #ifdef's.
