I've long wondered why dialogs seem to update twice when it seems
they just need to update once. It seems it was this code. But it
was only put there to deal with a problem with code in the button
controllers that was disabled in 2007! So I'm going to try removing
it. If we start seeing weird behavior with dialogs in master, then
this will be why.
Unfortunately, stat.st_ino returns 0 on Windows, at least on Python 2.7, so we can't use that way of telling when we're seeing the same directory again. Surely the real pathname should work.
The above mentionned patch did paint the background of the sublabel to
avoid "bold-like" effect. However the correct backgound color is the
row's one, not the inset's one.
The realPath() implementation on Windows works only for files and
not for directories. By using an API available starting from Vista
it is possible to fix it in a simple way.
I also took into account using the Qt QFileInfo::canonicalFilePath(),
but it turns out to not work when a path component is a junction
(tested with Qt 5.14.1).
Due to this, it is not possible compiling or using LyX on Windows
versions earlier than Vista.
In case of path names for external files containing symbolic links the real path
and the logical path name may be different for the same file or directory.
LyX is using QDir::tempPath() to create the path name of the temporary directory.
The Qt implementation is free to return the logical or the real path name here and
it happens to be different for various platforms and versions.
The most stable and clean solution is to use the real path name consistently.
As the xcb_send_event man page [1] states,
In order to properly initialize these bytes, we allocate 32 bytes
even though we only need less for an xcb_configure_notify_event_t
This commit fixes the following Valgrind error, which could be
triggered by selecting a letter in LyX:
