* Since DNS are normally restricted to ASCII, the use of UTF-8 in domain
names is implemented using a "punycode" encoding.
* The request to the DNS server must be sent with the ASCII
representation of the domain name, however the Unicode one should be
used for user-visible parts.
* ICU provides an implementation of the conversion, which we use here.
* Conversion is currently done in-place and modifies the BUrl object
(this is similar to UrlEncode/UrlDecode).
* Adjust existing IDN test to make use of these methods. It's passing
now.
* Negative and null values, big values, thousands separators (in
different languages), string with no format, non-printable and non-utf8
charcaters, format not using # for the number.
* This is most likely dead code currently (it is used only when the
framebuffer is big endian, and the the cpu is little endian)
* Fixes a warning.
* Can't confirm if B_SWAP_INT32 is really supposed to swap the value
in-place, or if this is a bug in Chart. Probably the latter.
* Update pseudo cache with minimal set of block cache API.
* Update Inode, Journal and Volume stubs to current API.
* Add stubs for remaining VFS functions.
* Extend tests to also call BPlusTree::Validate() and bail on errors.
* Change duplicate tests to fill in the same value. While this isn't
strictly allowed, the tree validation can't work unless the values
match up.
* Lots of coding style cleanup, but much more should still be done...
The tests run through without errors.
Even when BDirectWindow is used, the back buffer data can be copied to
the front buffer. This happens when resizing or moving the window, and
when moving the cursor above it.
Since Charts does not touch the whole window when redrawing (it only
erases previous stars and draws new ones) this led to the last frame
drawn on the back buffer to stay visible until stars erased it.
Clearing the back buffer view with the current "sapce color" makes this
much less visible.
Fixes#96.
* Instead of parsing the pattern everytime Format() is called, parse it
only once when the object is created.
* Adjust all callers to make use of the feature and reuse the instance
as much as possible. This also allows calling B_TRANSLATE only once
instead of everytime the formatting needs to be done. We use either a
static instance (when the message pattern is constant) or a field (when
it is not known to be constant).
* Since the BMessageFormat instances are now reused, add locking to
avoid race conditions (ICU itself is thread safe, but the format pattern
is recreated when the locale is changed)
The "j" format pattern selects a 12 or 24 hours clock automatically
depending on the locale, but it doesn't work when the format is forced
in the locale preflet or through the BFormattingConventions API. So we
manually pick either K or H depending on that setting.
This can be used to format complex messages properly. It moves the
complexity of handling plural forms, gender, and anything else needed
into the localizable string, rather than hardcoding it in the code.
This moves the difficulty of handling these things properly to people
doing translations, rather than relying on developers to do it.
Fixes#10755, but our localization must now be updated to make use of
the feature.
* Timezone names have changed. Test the medium time format which doesn't
include them, as we aren't forcing a specific one.
* French date format also changed to use 4 digit year name.
* Harmonize API for all B*Format to take an output BString by reference
as the first parameter,
* Move the FormatTime methods from BLocale to BTimeFormat
* Adjust all callers for BTimeFormat, BTimeUnitFormat and
BDurationFormat.
* Only tests very basic functionality, and size of the class, which must
not change for BeOS compatibility.
* Also add "manual" test for disabled and invalid controls (just check
it looks right)
* BDate setters don't perform any validation, use with caution.
* BCalendarView setters do perform validation checks, and will adjust
the day so it fits the requested month or year.
* Add tests for the BCalendarView setters.
This file used to hold iso-8859-15 encoded bytes for testing our char
conversion ability. However something went wrong and they all got
replaced by unicode "invalid character" mark. Use \x notation to escape
the actual bytes we want to test.
A BGeolocation object can query an online service to get geolocation
and geotagging data:
* LocateSelf() tries to locate the machine it is running on, by using an
online database of wifi access points
* Locate() (not yet implemented) searches a BString and converts it to
lat/lon coordinates (reverse geotagging)
* Name() (not yet implemented) finds a suitable name for the given
coordinates (address, building name, or anything fitting).
The default service used is openbmap.org, which is freely available but
not very accurate. A request has been sent to Mozilla to use MLS
(Mozilla Location Services), which is a bit more accurate but needs an
API key. MLS is used for geolocation on FirefoxOS, for mobile phones
which don't have a GPS, and the data can be contributed by Firefox for
Android or the dedicated MozStumbler app.
Alternatively, Google Maps also provide the service, but wants
people to pay for it. Google Maps data is more accurate as all Android
devices contribute data to it.
All 3 services use the same JSON-based API: we send a list of reachable
Wifi APs (mac address and signal strength), and we get lattitude and
longitude information, and possibly extra data which will currently be
unused.
This can be used to implement HTML5 geolocation with reasonably accurate
results, but it can also be used in other places. For example
FirstBootPrompt could try to guess a list of most likely languages and
keyboard layouts from it (if wifi is working at install time, that is).
* Temporarily disable the non-working Profiles popup
* Remove the currently single-tabbed TabView
* Remove duplicate apply and revert buttons in the interfaces add-on.
The goal here is to remove functionalities not available in the current
network preferences, and finish the other parts, so we can put this new
preferences panel in service now. We can re-add the extra functionality
later.
* The initial design was probably inspired by Windows network settings,
which are a mess of nested windows and hyperlinks.
* Instead, the settings can be put directly inside the main window, like
it is done inthe media preflet. This makes the information available at
a glance and makes the UI easier to navigate.
* Remove the "configure" button and popup menu item. A single click is
now enough to show the settings for an interface
For this to work properly, complete the move to layout kit (there were a
few BRect-based constructorls left which would mess the layout) and
remove unneeded rectangle computations (layout kit does the job
already).
Further cleanup pending:
* Removal of the duplicate "revert" button
* Removal of the "save" button and switch to applying settings realtime
* Move the disable/enable and renegociate buttons inside the interface
settings
* Remove the top-level tab view (nested tab views are not nice) and
use a hierarchized list with both interfaces and services on the side
(like the Media preflet has audio and video).
Note that this does not reproduce #8447. I could not get more precise
details from involved people about how to reproduce this, and the patch
was already applied anyway, so I'm stopping my investigation for now.
Feel free to complete this with more test cases.
* Move default context management to BUrlRequest since some code
(including the testsuite) bypass the BUrlProtocolRoster.
* Introduce proxy host and port in BUrlContext
* Have BHttpRequest use the proxy when making requests
