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().
- The TempFile class guarantees to generate a file name, we are not limited to
100 tries of a predictable scheme anymore, which could break if LyX
frequently crashes.
- The temp file name generation has no race condition against another LyX
instance in the same directory anymore.
- Symlinks survive saving again (regression of 10364082c8).

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.

If you look at Buffer.cpp, around line 4351, there was a comment about bug 5699. We are seeing the
same crash. The problem is that, although the master does have a GUI, that GUI is in a different window. So the structureChanged() call we do during updateBuffer() is for the TOC in that window, not the TOC in the window we are actually in. So our TocModel::toc_ has been reset and is invalid, though the widget itself has not been updated and looks fine.
This patch tests whether the master is in the same window as the buffer we are updating.
A problem remains, which is noted in a comment.
In e02df14 the return type of doExport was changed from bool to ExportStatus.
All calls except this one were adjusted. This one did now fail because the
numercial value of ExportSuccess is 0.
The new HTML clipboard export could cause error message boxes on copying
data to the clipboard (bug #8866). These are now suppressed, like all other
errors which might occur for preparing the clipboard data.
LyX, lyx2lyx and tex2lyx produce now all the same version indicator consisting
only of the major and minor version. It is not decided yet whether future
development versions will add a -dev suffix, but for 2.1.0 this change fixes
the inconsistencies.
These should be used if any new style needs to be introduced in the stable
2.1 series: If the ForceLocal flag of the style is set, it will always be
written to the document header, so that even older 2.1 versions can read
and correctly output the document.
Move the handling of branch-(de)activate(master) to Buffer. This code was moved to Bufferview in [3a03e71c/lyxgit] because a cursor was necessary to call Undo::recordUndoFullDocument(). However, it turns out that the undo code is already prepared to handle an empty cursor (and do nothing in this case).
Therefore we do that and move the branch code to Buffer where it belongs.
Note that there was a bug in the previous code that broke undo support: recordUndo should always be called _before_ doing any change.
each failure.
There are several places I was not sure what to do. These are marked
by comments beginning "LASSERT:" so they can be found easily. At the
moment, they are at:
Author.cpp:105: // LASSERT: What should we do here?
Author.cpp:121: // LASSERT: What should we do here?
Buffer.cpp:4525: // LASSERT: Is it safe to continue here, or should we just return?

Cursor.cpp:403: // LASSERT: Is it safe to continue here, or should we return?
Cursor.cpp:1143: // LASSERT: There have been several bugs around this code, that seem
CursorSlice.cpp:83: // LASSERT: This should only ever be called from an InsetMath.
CursorSlice.cpp:92: // LASSERT: This should only ever be called from an InsetMath.
LayoutFile.cpp:303: // LASSERT: Why would this fail?
Text.cpp:995: // LASSERT: Is it safe to continue here?
This was a simple logic error that crept in during refactoring:
If the format does not match, and the converted file has been read,
the string must not be read.
As discussed on the list. No automatic contents detection is done, the user
needs to use the special paste menu instead. I used the new TempFile class
for safe temporary file handling.
The documentation would go into section 2.2 of UserGuide.lyx, but I am not
allowed to edit that document.
The code does a reload on the buffer to avoid loose pointers if the
file changes directory. This commit adds a bool parameter to
Buffer::reload to allow for keeping the undo stack intact. This is of
couse only wanted in this case, not when reloading an earlier version
of the file.
This commit does a bit more than fix selection, since it saves the full cursor state
in the undo stack. This means that undo now restores:
* the selection
* the current font
* transient mark (shall we keep this one?), logical position...
In order to do that, it introduces an intermediate class between Cursor and DotIterator: CursorData.
The new inheritance diagram is thus
DocIteraator -> CursorData -> Cursor
CursorData contains all the members of Cursor that define the current position, but not the stuff
related to current view of dispatch mechanism. It may make sense in the future to move members
between CursorData and Cursor and to move some member functions to CursorData.
Now UndoElement uses CursorData for cur_before and cur_after, but not for the cell. The undo API uses
also CursorData instead of DocIterator.
The idea is to record undo at the place where the document is modified:
1/ in Buffer::updateBuffer, add a recordUndo, with the caveat that a
const_cast has to be used (because updateBuffer is const but
modifies the document, go figure).
2/ in GuiApplication::dispatch, add an extra undo group that
encompasses the updateBuffer call. Some other undo groups may be
redundant now, but it is not a problem since they do not cost
anything.
In this version, the idea is to record undo at the place where the document is modified, which is definitely cleaner.

While cppcheck did not turn out any suspicious error messages, using
the "performance" flag highlighted several nitpicks in three categories
* do not use it++ for iterators, ++it is better
* do not use size() to test for emptyness, empty() is here
* do not use "const T" as a function parameter, "const & T" is better
I doubt that any of these is a real performance problem, but the code is cleaner anyway.
In this case, the working dir has already a slash at the end.
Appending another one would result in a path ending with a double slash,
which has a special meaning when used in TEXINPUTS (all subdirs would
be recursively scanned). So, avoid doing that.
If a converter specifies the needaux flag, latex (or xelatex) is
always run to produce the needed auxiliary files. This is wrong
because there are documents that can only be compiled with a specific
backend and thus the conversion may fail. On the other hand, even if
the document specifies the backend to be used, LyX ignores this info.
This commit rectifies this behavior by letting LyX run the same flavor
of the latex backend that shall be used for previewing the document
also for producing the auxiliary files.
Math commands need it as well as text commands. At the same time, this
further unifies the checking for termination and fixes cases of wrong
output (e.g. for 0x2005).
We only copied the error list to the cloned buffer when makeLatexfile
failed. This means that a second try will never clear the error list and
the user will be presented the same list again.
Therefore, we unconditionally copy the error list such that we also clear
the list on success.
then trying to compile.
There are really two problems here. One is that the renamed
buffer needs to be reloaded. All kinds of files, etc, may not
exist any more, if we've been saved to a new directory; our
children e.g. may not be in the right place. And, in this case,
we may no longer be a child of our old parent. Reloading will
fix all of that.
On reload, though, we need to clear our parent, since we may
not have one any more. It will get reset if need be.

The global list of cloned buffers was a bad idea. We don't have multiple
export threads, but we can have multiple autosave threads. So now we keep
more than one of these lists at the same time, and each cloned buffer has
a pointer to the relevant list. Note that this would make multiple export
possible, if we wanted to do that at some time.

multiple times. So we need to keep a list of the Buffers we need to
delete, kind of like the BufferList.
