* Simplify the search UI for express mode.Matthew Barnes2010-04-076-19/+103
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For express mode: - Move the search bar up to the toolbar. - Hide the "filter" combo box and lock down the first item. - Hide the "scope" combo box and lock down the first item. (This is the combo box with "Current Folder" only in the mailer.) - EShellView owns the search bar widget now instead of EShellContent. - Insert several nasty hacks that will likely come back to bite me. Conflicts: doc/reference/shell/eshell-sections.txt
* More API documentation tweaking.Matthew Barnes2010-04-0730-5386/+21

* Demonstrate extending the EExtension API.Matthew Barnes2010-04-074-5/+17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Introduce e_extensible_list_extensions(), which provides extensible objects access to their own extensions, or a subset of them. Convert EShellBackend to an abstract EExtension subtype. EShell will load its extensions with e_extensible_load_extensions(), and then obtain a list of EShellBackend extensions as follows: shell_backends = e_extensible_list_extensions ( E_EXTENSIBLE (shell), E_TYPE_SHELL_BACKEND); Because EShellBackend is abstract, its GType is skipped while traversing the GType hierarchy to find EShell extensions.
* Document EExtensible and EExtension.Matthew Barnes2010-04-075-0/+110
| | | | | | The mechanism here is simple but hard to explain without leaning heavily on object-oriented jargon. Consider this a rough draft. Illustrations would certainly help clarify.
* Prevent future bugs like #612792.Matthew Barnes2010-03-151-2/+0
| | | | | | Add G_GNUC_NULL_TERMINATED to EAlert functions with variable-length parameter lists and drop the unnecessary "arg0" parameter so the function attribute works correctly.
* Shell and UI manager cleanups.Matthew Barnes2010-03-144-1/+27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Replace the EVO_EXPRESS environment variable with an --express command line option. (Note, this adds a new translatable string for --help.) Add an EUIManager class with an "express-mode" property and custom load functions that use our new "express" preprocessor. This replaces the UI manager functions in e-utils.c. (Also going to see if I can get GTK+ to add an "add_ui_from_string" method to GtkUIManagerClass that we can override. Then we could just call gtk_ui_manager_add_ui_from_string() and the preprocessor would automatically do its thing and chain up.) Add an "express-mode" read-only GObject property to EShell. Add e_shell_configure_ui_manager() to e-shell-utils.c. For now this just creates a one-way property binding: EShell:express-mode -> EUIManager:express-mode Call this immediately after e_ui_manager_new(). (EUIManager can't do this itself because it lives too low in the dependency hierarchy and doesn't know about EShell.)
* Update API documentation.Matthew Barnes2010-02-106-6/+81
| | | | Also, start fixing some Gtk-Doc warnings. There's a lot.
* Implement account-wide search scope in mail.Matthew Barnes2010-02-072-9/+13
| | | | Also, let EShellSearchbar handle search state persistence.
* Add a EShellWindow::shell-view-created signal.Matthew Barnes2010-01-232-0/+19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | The signal uses the name of the newly created shell view as the detail, so for example "shell-view-created::mail" is emitted when the "mail" view is created. Also, add e_shell_window_peek_shell_view() to obtain a shell view if it exists but without instantiating it. Using these new tools, teach the templates plugin to wait for the user to switch to the "mail" view before connecting to its "update-actions" signal. Previously is was instantiating the "mail" view itself.
* Coding style and whitespace cleanup.Matthew Barnes2010-01-041-0/+5
|
* Introduce ESelectable and EFocusTracker.Matthew Barnes2009-12-261-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | EFocusTracker tracks the input focus within a window and helps keep the sensitivity of "selectable" actions in the main menu up-to-date. Selectable actions include Cut, Copy, Paste, Select All and Delete. EFocusTracker has built-in support for widgets that implement the GtkEditable interface such as GtkEntry and GtkTextView. It also supports custom widgets that implement the ESelectable interface, which is a subset of GtkEditable and can apply to anything that displays selectable content (esp. tree views and ETables). This commit integrates EFocusTracker with EShellWindow, CompEditor, EMsgComposer, and ESignatureManager. It also bumps the GtkHTML requirement to 2.29.5 to utilize the new GtkhtmlEditor:html constructor property.
* Refactor the EShell search API.Matthew Barnes2009-12-197-293/+623
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Move the search interface to a new widget: EShellSearchbar The current search rule is now stored in EShellView, and the search context in EShellViewClass similar to GalViewCollection (since it's class-specific, not instance-specific). Also add a couple new signals to EShellView: "clear-search" and "custom-search" ("custom" refers to an advanced search or a saved search -- something more complex than a quick search). Still working out a few kinks. The search entry is clearly trying to be too many things. We need a different way of indicating that you're looking at search results. Perhaps a search results banner similar to Nautilus.
* Introduce EMailSidebar into libevolution-mail.Matthew Barnes2009-12-155-43/+59
| | | | | | EMailSidebar is a subclass of EMFolderTree that implements the state saving and restoration feature from EMailShellSidebar. Placing this in the shared mail library allows Anjal to reuse it.
* Add an EShell:module-directory constructor property.Matthew Barnes2009-12-021-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This tells EShell where to look for EModules. Best practice is to define the directory in your CPPFLAGS and then pass it to EShell at instantiation time, like so: Makefile.am: evolution_CPPFLAGS = \ -DMODULEDIR=\""$(moduledir)"\" ... main.c: shell = g_object_new ( E_TYPE_SHELL, "module-directory", MODULEDIR, ...);
* Add private virtual methods to EShellWindowClass.Matthew Barnes2009-12-028-42/+341
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | So Anjal can override what it needs to for its own purpose. Also makes the EShellWindow design a little cleaner. Methods added: GtkWidget * (*construct_menubar) (EShellWindow *shell_window); GtkWidget * (*construct_toolbar) (EShellWindow *shell_window); GtkWidget * (*construct_sidebar) (EShellWindow *shell_window); GtkWidget * (*construct_content) (EShellWindow *shell_window); GtkWidget * (*construct_taskbar) (EShellWindow *shell_window); EShellView * (*create_shell_view) (EShellWindow *shell_window, const gchar *view_name); Also added some new GObject properties to help decouple actions from internal EShellWindow widgets created by these methods: EShellWindow:sidebar-visible EShellWindow:switcher-visible EShellWindow:taskbar-visible EShellWindow:toolbar-visible
* Expand the EMailReader interface so it's easier to use.Matthew Barnes2009-12-022-120/+106
| | | | | | | | Adds the following methods: CamelFolder * (*get_folder) (EMailReader *reader); const gchar * (*get_folder_uri) (EMailReader *reader); GPtrArray * (*get_selected_uids) (EMailReader *reader);
* Update API documentation.Matthew Barnes2009-11-291-4/+0
|
* Add a --quit command-line option.Matthew Barnes2009-11-261-0/+1
| | | | | | | This -asks- an existing Evolution process to quit. It is equivalent to selecting File->Quit in the main window. It does not kill the process. My plan is to use this as part of a new --force-shutdown implementation.
* Add a --geometry command-line option.Matthew Barnes2009-11-264-13/+23
| | | | | Applies the user's window geometry string to the first main window. Suggested in bug #529565.
* Kill Evolution's icon cache once and for all.Matthew Barnes2009-11-203-14/+17
| | | | | GTK+ already does this. Eliminates e_icon_factory_init() and e_icon_factory_shutdown().
* Bug 589153 - Use GtkBuilder instead of libgladeMatthew Barnes2009-11-174-75/+0

* Further tweaks for the command-line importing.Matthew Barnes2009-11-131-0/+1
| | | | | Includes Bastien Nocera's patch to register our importable MIME types with the MIME database.
* Simplify clipboard handling in calendar.Matthew Barnes2009-11-122-17/+15
|
* Kill more redundant save dialogs and related utilities.Matthew Barnes2009-11-112-31/+28
|
* Kill e-cursor(s) (both of them).Matthew Barnes2009-11-103-32/+16
|
* Convert some "Save As" actions to run asynchronously.Matthew Barnes2009-11-084-23/+19
| | | | | | | | | | This introduces e-shell-utils for miscellaneous utility functions that integrate with the shell or shell settings. First function is e_shell_run_save_dialog(), which automatically remembers the selected folder in the file chooser dialog. Also, kill some redundant save dialog functions, as well as some write-this-string-to-disk functions that block.
* Remove redundant URI/filename conversion functions.Matthew Barnes2009-11-063-20/+16
| | | | | Use g_filename_to_uri() instead of e_util_filename_to_uri(). Use g_filename_from_uri() instead of e_util_uri_to_filename().
* Don't update the message list when right-clicking on a folder.Matthew Barnes2009-10-281-0/+1
| | | | | | After the folder's context menu closes the folder tree selection jumps back to the folder whose contents are showing in the message list. Suggested by Philippe LeCavalier on evolution-list.
* Gtk-Doc updates.Matthew Barnes2009-10-071-0/+1

* Developer documentation improvements.Matthew Barnes2009-09-2324-11/+2699
|
* Fix some mistakes in the EShell documentation.Matthew Barnes2009-09-033-1/+17
|
* Introduce an EShellView::execute-search signal.Matthew Barnes2009-09-034-8/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | This addresses bug #593896 but is also a cleaner design than before. It introduces an EShellView::execute-search signal and renames the "search-execute" action to "search-quick" to clarify that it's only meant for the "quick" search bar in the main window. Shell view subclasses should implement the execute_search() method to actually execute a search. e_shell_view_execute_search() emits the new signal.
* Deal with untracked files in git.Matthew Barnes2009-08-261-0/+2
|
* Fix Gtk-Doc build break.Matthew Barnes2009-08-231-1/+0
|
* Bug 591755 - Gtk-Doc build failure when NM support disabledH.Habighorst2009-08-171-1/+5

|
* Finish EggSMClient shell integration.Matthew Barnes2009-07-161-0/+3
|
* Update EShell API docs.Matthew Barnes2009-07-152-4/+9
|
* Add a "quit-requested" signal to the shutdown protocol.Matthew Barnes2009-07-132-1/+16
| | | | | | | The contact and contact-list editors now demonstrate this part of the shutdown protocol. They listen for the "quit-requested" signal from the shell and prompt to save changes, discard changes or cancel. If the user cancels, the editor calls e_shell_cancel_quit() to do just that.
* Implement the shutdown protocol and stub in session management.Matthew Barnes2009-07-113-37/+40
| | | | | The shutdown protocol is modelled after online/offline preparation. Session management code is copied from libegg. Not yet used.
* Fix up EShell API documentation.Matthew Barnes2009-07-014-2/+51
|
* Fix "make distcheck" errors and other build cleanups.Matthew Barnes2009-07-011-1/+1
|
* Radically reorganize source code.Matthew Barnes2009-06-252-0/+283
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | - Collect all shell modules into a new top-level 'modules' directory: $(top_srcdir)/modules/addressbook $(top_srcdir)/modules/calendar $(top_srcdir)/modules/mail Nothing is allowed to link to these, not plugins nor other modules. THIS SOLVES BUG #571275 AND OPENS THE DOOR TO PORTING TO MAC OS X. - Mimic the libevolution-mail-shared library from master (except drop the "shared" suffix) and have libevolution-mail-importers and all mail-related plugins link to it. - Discard the a11y subdirectories and have the files live alongside their counterpart widgets.
* Use key files for tracking widget states.Matthew Barnes2009-06-131-0/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Each EShellView now maintains a GKeyFile for recording disposable widget state such as tree view path expansion, scroll bar positions, combo box selections, etc. The EShellView records changes to the key file to ~/.evolution/<shell-backend>/config/state, and automatically restores the GKeyFile at startup. Currently only the mailer uses the key file, but it's intended to serve all shell views. It replaces the use of Camel "cmeta" files, as well as "et-expanded-*" and "folder-tree-expand-state.xml" files. Also, the mailer's folder tree model now includes a column for tracking which sidebar folders are expanded. Folder tree widgets appearing in dialog windows can copy the sidebar's expanded state using em_folder_tree_clone_expanded().
* Makefile.am cleanups.Matthew Barnes2009-06-132-15/+1
|
* Search bar improvements.Matthew Barnes2009-06-092-1/+6
| | | | | Split the search entry into a new widget to manage hints (EHintedEntry). Let the search entry expand to use available horizontal space.

| | | | svn path=/branches/kill-bonobo/; revision=37310
* Make filter options for mail labels work again.Matthew Barnes2009-02-232-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | Define a new shell module method named start() that tells the module when to start loading data and running background tasks. Only really applies to the mail module right now since the others use evolution-data-server. Basically it prevents the mail module from loading and refreshing mail stores until you actually switch to the mail view. svn path=/branches/kill-bonobo/; revision=37309
* Documentation tweaks.Matthew Barnes2009-02-191-0/+1
| | | | | | Have e_shell_get_preferences_window() take an EShell argument. svn path=/branches/kill-bonobo/; revision=37294
* Rename EShell:online-mode to EShell:online and update docs.Matthew Barnes2009-02-193-6/+37
| | | | | | | Use EBindings instead of a notify callback to keep other widgets and actions synchronized with EShell:online. Cleaner and less error prone. svn path=/branches/kill-bonobo/; revision=37293

| | | | | | Search scope (current folder, current account, etc.) is still ignored. svn path=/branches/kill-bonobo/; revision=37263
* Make MailSession available through EShellSettings so composer can use it.Matthew Barnes2009-02-131-0/+2
| | | | svn path=/branches/kill-bonobo/; revision=37257
* Rewrite the mail label code from top to bottom.Matthew Barnes2009-02-082-0/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | - Kill the e-util-labels API and read label information into a single-column GtkListStore. Use GConfBridge to automatically keep GConf synched with the list store. - The list store (a singleton instance) is stored in EShellSettings so it's available everywhere. - The list store serves as the model for EMailLabelTreeView, which itself is embedded in EMailLabelManager; a complete label management UI as seen in the preferences dialog. - EMailLabelDialog is used to add or edit a label. Avoid using a color button, instead embed a GtkColorSelection directly in the dialog so everything is in one window. Open issues: - The weird toggle/color/text menu items in the popup menu aren't there. For now they're just regular toggle items. I'll deal with it later. - Filter intergration is broken at the moment. svn path=/branches/kill-bonobo/; revision=37233
* When invoking Evolution with URIs on the command-line (e.g. mailto:),Matthew Barnes2009-01-293-12/+40

* Progress update:Matthew Barnes2008-11-192-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | - Tighter integration of GalViewInstance and EShellView. - EBinding. Stolen from ExoBinding. Lets you bind GObject properties together to automatically keep their values in sync. This is a godsend. Added to e-util, but might even deserve a place in libedataserver. - EShellSettings. This is the concept I blogged about. Already started ripping apart em-mailer-prefs.c. Others to follow. Any place where we're monitoring GConf keys is a target. - Incremental progress on the calender and mailer. Got EMFolderView somewhat working, but I think I'll be killing off EMFolderBrowser. svn path=/branches/kill-bonobo/; revision=36795
* Rearranged some of the addressbook code to try and eliminate some circularMatthew Barnes2008-11-142-9/+9
| | | | | | | | dependencies in our libraries. The circular dependency between the composer and the mail module is still causing me headaches. And it doesn't help that the addressbook and calendar also want to link to the composer. svn path=/branches/kill-bonobo/; revision=36782
