This is needed for cases where the temp file has to be manually removed
at some point (e.g., if temp files are used as conversion target, and
the initial file only serves as a placeholder), since QTemporaryFile
objects cannot be manually removed at least on Windows (they are always
kept open internally even after close()). See
http://lists.qt-project.org/pipermail/interest/2013-August/008352.html
In order to avoid race conditions due to duplicate names (the issue why
the old method was removed), we record all used temp file names.
Fixes: #9139
(cherry picked from commit 9e2928be68)
The function is no longer used in LyX's sources (as of the previous
comit, 9b64d7bd) and is thus removed with this commit. Perhaps the
advantage this function had over other path functions we have has
disappeared over time (see e.g. 1a7b7f65).
This is needed for warning-free compilation with mingw-w64, and does not hurt
for other build configurations. Patch by Shankar Giri Venkita Giri (bug 10053).
Other than BIBINPUTS, also BSTINPUTS and TEXFONTS are exported.
They do not replicate the setting for TEXINPUTS but are set such
that the current dir (i.e., the temp dir) and the document dir
are also searched for bibtex and fonts related files.
Use the function support:truncateWithEllipsis() to shorten a docstring with
... at the end. Actually we use U+2026 HORIZONTAL ELLIPSIS instead of "..." when
automatically shortening strings. This is to be consistent with Qt's own
truncation and is much nicer on the screen.
This includes the bugs #9575 and #9572 regarding broken text elision in the
outliner.
Known issues (non-regressions):
* TocBackend::updateItem() should be rewritten to update all TOCs. (#8386)
* "..." should be replaced with … everywhere else on the interface (including
translation strings).
* We should prefer to rely on QFontMetrics::elidedText() to truncate strings
with an ellipsis whenever possible, or an equivalent for the buffer view
dependent on the font metrics. See the warning in src/support/lstrings.h.
These were all flagged by "(style) The scope of the variable 'x' can be reduced."
Narowing the scope improves readability, and if it is in a loop then the
compiler will be clever enough to produce efficient code, we do not need
manual optimization for POD types.
The "save-as" part of the bug is fixed by extending the \textclass tag
such that, if a local layout file is used, its path relative to the
document directory is now stored together with the name. If a relative
path cannot be used, an absolute one is used but, in this case, the
document is not usable on a different platform.
The "copy" part is fixed by introducing a new \origin tag, which is
written when the file is saved. This tag stores the absolute path of
the document directory. If the document is manually copied to a
different location, the local layout file is retrivied by using
\origin (which is only updated on save).
This new tag may prove useful also for locating other files when the
document is manually moved to a different directory.
As in the original implementation the files needed for the layout
(for example, a latex class) had to be in the same directory as the
layout file, this directory has also to be added to TEXINPUTS.
I am moving the corresponding code directly to InsetInfo.cpp.
Moreover, the size of the image displayed by the info inset is
now dynamically set according to the text size.
It is better to introduce a dummy blank dir in TEXINPUTS rather than
appending a blank at the end. Even if I have checked that this is not
a problem with MikTeX, some other engine (maybe texlive, but I cannot
check) could not ignore this space and take it as the name of a dir.
In this case, TEXINPUTS would not end with an empty element and the
standard search path would not be inserted there.
If a compressed svg icon is present, load it instead of a png one.
Also introduce two more sizes (huge and giant icons) that should be
useful when using hires displays, as svg icons automatically scale
to the desired size without loss of quality.
The reason being that the TEXINPUTS path list was not quoted on Windows.
This was no problem with spaces but some special characters are
interpreted by the shell and can cause problems. In this particular
case, the '&' character was being interpreted as a command separator.
Some applications do not accept forward slashes, so call external viewers
and editors with backward slashes which is the usual convention under windows.
The magic library can detect the charset used by a file. While this
detection is not full proof, actually the library seems to be infallible
as regards the binary nature of a file. So, use libmagic for the detection
and fallback to the previous method if the library is not installed or
its database cannot be loaded.
FileName::tempName() created a new temp file name by using qt to create a
temporary file with a unique name, and then deleting that file and returning
the name. This was unsafe, since other processes or even other threads of the
running LyX could create files with the same name between deletion and then
using the temp name.
This is fixed by using the TempFile class instead. As a side effect, a few
cases where the temp files were not deleted after usage were fixed as well.
The only place that is still unsafe is createTmpDir().
This also changes the type of an int to an ssize_t.
nRead is initialized as an ssize_t because it could
be negative. It is cast to a size_t for comparison
to the size of a vector, but only after we check
that nRead is not negative.
The code for detecting python commands and substituting in the
correct prefix is now merged with what used to be libScriptSearch()
and is now renamed to commandPrep(). This commit does not change
any functionality and just improves organization to reduce the
chance of bugs in the future.
Now the replacement is done in startScript(). In addition to making
the code cleaner and more consistent, this commit fixes a bug where
"$$s" was not replaced when "latex=" was specified in the extra flags
of a converter.
Note that the temporary fix at 731b8610 is reverted with this commit.
for possible thread conflicts, of the sort Georg resolved at
6a30211f. I have made static variables const where possible,
and marked cases that looked potentially problematic with the
comment:
// FIXME THREAD
Many of these definitely are vulnerable to concurrent access, such
as the static variables declared at the start of output_latex.cpp.
Suppose, e.g., we were outputting latex and also displaying the
source of a different document.
I'd appreciate it if others could grep for "FIXME THREAD" and see
if some of these are harmless, or what.
The goal here is to get rid of the old code that modified variables
LANGUAGE and LC_ALL, therefore creating the problems mentionned
in the ticket.
In the new system, there is no explicit "GUI" message handler, that
needs to be reset at each language change. Instead, getGuiMessages
calls getMessages with the correct parameter. This allows to simplify
greatly the code and to remove a lot of old cruft.
This is a candidate for branch too, although the bug is minor.

file names with a proper one: Only replace dots in the base name, and only
request the lyxdot feature if it is needed. This is a partial fix of bug #7650.

the QProcess parser will strip them, and strip them by ourselves in ForkedCall.

for Systemcall, ForkedCall, and also for the case when QProcess in not used.

The fix also allows to execute again batch files when using runCommand.
Unfortunately, this is still not possible with QProcess as that code is not
under our control.
