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.
* Support ! modifier (same as '-')
* Create reusable PopupHelpWidget as self-contained popup that can
be positioned around a parent widget and will follow the movement
and sizing of the window
* Eliminated KEEPASSXC_MAIN_WINDOW macro and replaced with
getMainWindow() function
* Add tests to cover search help show/hide
Use nullptr instead of 0 or NULL to initialize a null pointer. In some
cases, readability was enhanced by replacing 0 with more meaningful
values according to the type of the pointer being initialized.
This patch aims at reducing the number of copies for obejcts that could
be referenced rather than copied, because they're not modified during
the computation.
The arg() function of the QString class has a variable length argument
which allows to reduce the number of chained calls to the same function.
With proper formatting, readability is not affected.
Performing a dev build against the latest version of Qt failed
because of some deprecated members. They have been replaced
according to the Qt documentation.
Further, Q_OS_MACOS is now the only macro available to identify a
machine running macOS, the others are now deprecated.
See https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qtglobal.html#Q_OS_OSX and
https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qtglobal.html#Q_OS_MAC.
The CLI module was lacking unit test coverage and showed some severe
coding style violations, which this patch addresses.
In addition, all uses of qCritical() with untranslatble raw char*
sequences were removed in favor of proper locale strings. These are
written to STDERR through QTextStreams and support output
redirection for testing purposes. With this change, error messages don't
depend on the global Qt logging settings and targets anymore and go
directly to the terminal or into a file if needed.
This patch also fixes a bug discovered during unit test development,
where the extract command would just dump the raw XML contents without
decrypting embedded Salsa20-protected values first, making the XML
export mostly useless, since passwords are scrambled.
Lastly, all CLI commands received a dedicated -h/--help option.
* 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)
