The Database, DatabaseWidget, and DatabaseTabWidget classes share many responsibilities in inconsistent ways resulting in impenetrable and unmaintainable code and a diverse set of bugs and architecture restrictions. This patch reworks the architecture, responsibilities of, and dependencies between these classes.
The core changes are:
* Move loading and saving logic from widgets into the Database class
* Get rid of the DatabaseManagerStruct and move all the information contained in it into the Database
* Let database objects keep track of modifications and dirty/clean state instead of handing this to external widgets
* Move GUI interactions for loading and saving from the DatabaseTabWidget into the DatabaseWidget (resolves#2494 as a side-effect)
* Heavily clean up DatabaseTabWidget and degrade it to a slightly glorified QTabWidget
* Use QSharedPointers for all Database objects
* Remove the modifiedImmediate signal and replace it with a markAsModified() method
* Implement proper tabName() method instead of reading back titles from GUI widgets (resolves#1389 and its duplicates #2146#855)
* Fix unwanted AES-KDF downgrade if database uses Argon2 and has CustomData
* Improve code
This patch is also the first major step towards solving issues #476 and #2322.
Rename UI elements involved with the bottom preview panel to use the
terminology "entry preview panel" instead of "details view" or "preview
panel". Change all associated variables, widgets, and classes to
reference EntryPreviewPanel. Create Config::upgrade() function and
deprecation mapping to help rename/remove previous config settings in a
clean manner.
Fixes#2327
Update state syncer (class DatabaseWidgetStateSync) to account for new
features:
- properly sync view state when switching tabs
- properly read/write view state from/to config
Update classes EntryModel and EntryView to consistenly name list/search
modes. Before, both classes defined list mode as 'group mode' and search
mode as 'entry list mode', which differed from naming in other classes
such as DatabaseWidget.
Chnage to one method to set MessageWidget text passing type as
parameter.
Only messages with questions requiring user input reamin using
MessageBox dialog.
Use signal/slots to set message in MessageWidget and hide message,
signal/slots only used when required.Maybe need to change all calls to
signals/slots in the future.
* Moved search bar to toolbar and consolidated search options into dropdown list
* Updated GUI tests to be atomic and rewrote search tests
* Searches are saved between databases
* Search is cleared when all databases are closed
* Implemented global search shortcut (CTRL+F) and a notification bar when in search mode
