* The BeBook states that any media_kit app should have BApplication
behind. Beware the app don't need to be running, but the object
should be present. This is because we use BApplication as a safe
exit point to free the memory allocated.
* While I was a bit reclutant in doing that, after a developer
discussion we agreed this would be the cleaner way to solve this
problem without eluding it.
Chunks may be physically contiguous, but virtually disjoint. Adding
physical addresses may cause ranges to be merged incorrectly.

* The BMediaClient is an higher level API to the media_kit. It
corresponds to what the layout API was for the interface_kit.
The main idea is to allow the developer concentrate only on
higher level details and avoiding handle with the tricky parts
of the media_kit. At the same time the general purpose node that
is implemented inside would allow implementing the best techniques
around thus at the same time reducing code duplication and increasing
efficiency.
* BMediaClient is WIP, this is the initial merge of the branch.
The initial development stone was set long time ago and walked
through various design/implementation phases.
* Get rid of the "Actve Sound Font:" BStringView below the BListView.
Now the selected SoundFont is the active SF.
* If there's only one SF available, select it automatically.
* Added a BStringView below the list and only give feedback when needed:
- if no SF is installed
- if the user has to select a SF
* Double-clicking an entry opens its location in Tracker.
* Added node-monitoring to live-update the list of available SFs.
Note: Un/installing a package doesn't trigger a notification (related
to #9970 ?).
Added Haiku's new forums.
Added BeBytes.
Removed GuestOne repo (can be re-added if they return).
Added empty "Bookmarks bar" folder.
Added overlay icons for the folders in "Bookmarks".
Suggested by Adrien, to make the MIDI settings more future proof when
more settings will be added, and to make manual editing less error prone.
Moved the settings from B_USER_SETTINGS_DIRECTORY/midi to
B_USER_SETTINGS_DIRECTORY/Media/midi_settings.
- Resolve symlinks to bookmarks so we display the icons for those
- Adjust the minimal height of the bar to make space for icons (if you
use a tiny font size)
- Do not allow the bookmark bar to show when it is empty
The fSource can point to a source with code inside a media plug-in (in
particular, the HTTP source from the http_streamer plugin). However,
deleting the extractor can cause the plugin to become "unreferenced" and
unloaded. If we try to call code to delete the source later, we find
that the code is already unloaded, and the app crashes.
This happens in Web+ when navigating away from Youtube or otherwise
interrupting a video while it is being played.
Fixes the crashing part of #13058.
Parsing an URL can never fail. The regexp is designed to match any
input. In the worst case, everything will end up in the "path"
component. WebPositive relies on this to generate file URLs from a plain
path.
URLs without a protocol are also possible, and can be used with an
implicit protocol. A typical example is network shares sometimes noted in
"//host.domain/path/file" form.
Add tests for these two cases and fix the parser to behave as expected.
ThemeManager has an UTF-8 copyright symbol in its rdef file.
The chroot set up by haikuporter doesn't export anything that would
hint grep to accept UTF-8 as text, so it freaks out...
So we force it to accept anything as text.
- B_TRIM_DEVICE on a ram disk frees all requested pages. Reading from a
trimmed page returns all 0s. This can be used with fstrim to release
memory for the parts not used by the filesystem, without unregistering
then registering the device.
- Add icon and ioctl to get it.
- Add it to the image, because it works reasonably well and there is no
reason not to include it.
Thanks to Pete Goodeve for patiently providing help and feedback wrt
the package layout and esp. for his device definitions for the Roland GS
and Yamaha XG.
