* Introduce _LAST_MODIFIED custom data entry that stores the last modified datetime of the database's custom data entries
* Merge custom data from source database to target
* Modify tests to be aware of _LAST_MODIFIED entry
Many lines were not conformant with the project's formatting rules.
This patch should fix all formatting and whitespace issues in the code
base.
A clang-format directive was put around the connect() calls containing
SIGNALs and SLOTs whose signatures would be denormalized because of the
formatting rules.
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.
* Create history-based merging that keeps older data in history instead of discarding or deleting it
* Extract merge logic into the Merger class
* Allows special merge behavior
* Improve handling of deletion and changes on groups
* Enable basic change tracking while merging
* Prevent unintended timestamp changes while merging
* Handle differences in timestamp precision
* Introduce comparison operators to allow for more sophisticated comparisons (ignore special properties, ...)
* Introduce Clock class to handle datetime across the app
Merge Strategies:
* Default (use inherited/fallback method)
* Duplicate (duplicate conflicting nodes, apply all deletions)
* KeepLocal (use local values, but apply all deletions)
* KeepRemote (use remote values, but apply all deletions)
* KeepNewer (merge history only)
* Synchronize (merge history, newest value stays on top, apply all deletions)
