As Kornel pointed out, it's possible to give a command sequence, or
multiple "-x" arguments, and carry out an operation without actually
giving LyX a filename argument. This will lead to cases like:
lyx -batch -x buffer-export
which don't do anything, but it's not catastrophic.
Actually, the possible exception path is from replaceEnvironmentPath.
It would be better if coverity was able to asses that our hardcoded
regexp:s are correct.
This commit does a bulk fix of incorrect annotations (comments) at the
end of namespaces.
The commit was generated by initially running clang-format, and then
from the diff of the result extracting the hunks corresponding to
fixes of namespace comments. The changes being applied and all the
results have been manually reviewed. The source code successfully
builds on macOS.
Further details on the steps below, in case they're of interest to
someone else in the future.
1. Checkout a fresh and up to date version of src/
git pull && git checkout -- src && git status src
2. Ensure there's a suitable .clang-format in place, i.e. with options
to fix the comment at the end of namespaces, including:
FixNamespaceComments: true
SpacesBeforeTrailingComments: 1
and that clang-format is >= 5.0.0, by doing e.g.:
clang-format -dump-config | grep Comments:
clang-format --version
3. Apply clang-format to the source:
clang-format -i $(find src -name "*.cpp" -or -name "*.h")
4. Create and filter out hunks related to fixing the namespace
git diff -U0 src > tmp.patch
grepdiff '^} // namespace' --output-matching=hunk tmp.patch > fix_namespace.patch
5. Filter out hunks corresponding to simple fixes into to a separate patch:
pcregrep -M -e '^diff[^\n]+\nindex[^\n]+\n--- [^\n]+\n\+\+\+ [^\n]+\n' \
-e '^@@ -[0-9]+ \+[0-9]+ @@[^\n]*\n-\}[^\n]*\n\+\}[^\n]*\n' \
fix_namespace.patch > fix_namespace_simple.patch
6. Manually review the simple patch and then apply it, after first
restoring the source.
git checkout -- src
patch -p1 < fix_namespace_simple.path
7. Manually review the (simple) changes and then stage the changes
git diff src
git add src
8. Again apply clang-format and filter out hunks related to any
remaining fixes to the namespace, this time filter with more
context. There will be fewer hunks as all the simple cases have
already been handled:
clang-format -i $(find src -name "*.cpp" -or -name "*.h")
git diff src > tmp.patch
grepdiff '^} // namespace' --output-matching=hunk tmp.patch > fix_namespace2.patch
9. Manually review/edit the resulting patch file to remove hunks for files
which need to be dealt with manually, noting the file names and
line numbers. Then restore files to as before applying clang-format
and apply the patch:
git checkout src
patch -p1 < fix_namespace2.patch
10. Manually fix the files noted in the previous step. Stage files,
review changes and commit.
Setting the default working directory to '.' is an invasive change
on Mac and Windows, where the current working directory of LyX when
LyX is started from the GUI is not a reasonable choice for the
default directory in e.g. the "save as" file dialog or the "open"
dialog. A similar situation could happen on Linux distributions (I'm
not aware of any, e.g., POSIX standard that defines that the working
directory of a binary started from GUI should be the home
directory). Thus, it is not clear this default is good on any
platform.
If the user wishes to have the behavior of '.', the description in
the "paths" preferences pane provides the information for making the
change.

This reverts commit 892593fbdc.
Starting with Qt 5.6, setting the environment variable QT_SCALE_FACTOR
makes everything accordingly bigger. So, if QT_SCALE_FACTOR=1.2, all
text and GUI elements are rendered 20% bigger. However, if an application
does not account for this, everything will also look "blocky".
With this commit, all text and images will be scaled remaining sharp.
This works whether a HiDpi screen is used or not, but is mostly useful
with a HiDpi screen, as all GUI elements are more spaced apart and one
can use the mouse for selecting things without requiring a high precision.
Note that the lyxrc.document_path variable corresponds to what we
call the "Working directory" in the GUI preferences dialog.
Setting document_path to "." makes it so when LyX is started from a
directory, that directory is the default path for many of LyX's
operations, such as the following:
- new file, new from template
- adding a custom BibTeX file
- GUI compare dialog
- local layout button in document settings
- external material file browser
- graphics browser, include browser
The best guess for where the user wants to save or find files is the
directory the user started LyX from. Before, the default was always
the home directory. If desired, the old behavior can be restored by
changing the default path in Preferences > "Working directory".
This commit takes advantage of 9b64d7bd, which allows the use of a
relative path for path preferences.
Now the minibuffer toolbar is "auto" by default. It is opened by
command-execute (M-x) and closed when the command is executed without error.
* make lyx::dispatch return a DispatchResult struct
* there is a new MINIBUFFER type of toolbar, that can be used for this use.
* remove special handling of M-x in minnibuffer; Escape can be used instead. Fix focus in this case.
* when minibuffer toolbar is "auto", make the toolbar close itself after
- a command has been executed without error
- an empty command has been executed
- the Escape key has been used
[this is actually commit fdcff02a, which was later reverted at dd61d8cf]

This is needed since src/support calls lots of qt code, and some parts of it
(e.g. QFileInfo) require a running event loop. This fixes bug #4917 which is
a symptom of the problem.
The fix is to create a QCoreApplication for tex2lyx, lyxclient and LyX running
without GUI. In the future this could be extended, i.e. to split up the
frontend Application class in a GUI and a console class, and having the
console class use LyXConsoleApp in the same way as Application now uses
GuiApplication. If that is done, one could also think of moving
support/ConsoleApplication to frontend/console/ConsoleApplication.
These are now in version.cpp. The build machinery should therefore make sure
that version.cpp is recompiled at every compilation.
These variables are now referred to by the other places that made use of __DATE__ and __TIME__.
In the current code each paragraph contains a map<Language,
WordList*>, which means that it contains a full copy of the language
object. Since these objects contain translation tables nowadays, this
is a very bad idea.
This patch simply replaces the Language key by a string.
