- Implement backupPathPattern tests.
- Show tooltip on how to format database backup location text field.
* Closes#6335
* Modify application settings presentation to allow for alternative saving strategies
* Transition Database::save calls to using flags to control saving behavior. Reduces boolean flags on function call.
* Made direct write save option a local setting to prevent unintentional carry over between platforms.
* Fix#3506
* Fix#2389
* Fix#2536
* Fix#2230
Every database that has been opened now watch's it's own file. This allows the database class to manage file changes and detect fail conditions during saving. Additionally, all stakeholders of the database can listen for the database file changed notification and respond accordingly.
Performed significant cleanup of the autoreload code within DatabaseWidget. Fixed several issues with handling changes due to merging, not merging, and other scenarios while reloading.
Prevent database saves to the same file if there are changes on disk that have not been merged with the open database.
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.
This patch implements a new database wizard to guide users through the process
of setting up a new database and choosing sane encryption settings.
It also reimplements the master key settings to be more
user-friendly. Users can now add, change, or remove individual composite
key components instead of having to set all components at once. This
avoids confusion about a password being reset if the user only wants to
add a key file.
With these changes comes a major refactor of how database composite keys and key
components are handled. Copying of keys is prohibited and each key
exists only once in memory and is referenced via shared pointers. GUI
components for changing individual keys are encapsulated into separate
classes to be more reusable. The password edit and generator widgets
have also been refactored to be more reusable.
