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.
