Because of the virtual hooks a BLayout must never be destroyed while it still has layout items. If these items are only removed from the layout in its destructor, the subclass version of hooks like ItemRemoved() are not called anymore. This lead to leaks because many BLayout subclasses use the ItemRemoved() hook to clean up associated data (as is suggested explicitly in the BLayout documentation). In the same line of thought, a BLayoutItem must never be deleted when it is still attached to a layout, as it similarly has virtual hooks like DetachedFromLayout() that can not be called at this point anymore. The destructors of BLayout and BLayoutItem now have debugger calls in case these conditions are not met which should help to avoid accidentally introducing such hard to debug issues. To ensure the correct destruction order the sequence is now: * Destroy the child views first. This cleans up their layout items while the layout tree is still intact. * Unset the view layout before removing layout items so it can properly detach from the layout instead of just deleting it. |

Haiku
Homepage | Mailing Lists | IRC Channels | Issue Tracker | API docs
Haiku is an open-source operating system that specifically targets personal computing. Inspired by the BeOS, Haiku is fast, simple to use, easy to learn and yet very powerful.
Goals
- Sensible defaults with minimal configuration required.
- Clean, clear, concise code.
- Unified desktop environment.
Trying Haiku
Haiku provides pre-built nightly images and release images. Haiku is compatible with a large variety of hardware, but in case you don't want to "take the plunge" and install Haiku on bare metal, you can install it on a virtual machine (VM) instead. If you've never used a VM before, you can follow one of the "Emulating Haiku" guides.
Compiling Haiku

Contributing
Haiku is a meritocratic open source project with a large variety of tasks. Even if you can't write code, you can still help! Haiku needs designers, (technical) writers, translators, testers... Get involved and help out!
Contributing code

Contributing documentation
The main piece of documentation that still needs work are the API docs (found
in the tree at src/docs/user
). Just find an undocumented class, write
documentation for it, and submit a patch.
