The path returned by GUI:FilePicker is stored on the stack when the
callback is executed. The player only stored a StringView to the path
however it should take ownership of the path instead since the path is
accessed even after the file menu open action has returned.
The shuffling algorithm uses a naïve bloom filter to provide random
uniformity, avoiding items that were recently played. With 32 bits,
double hashing, and an error rate of ~10%, this bloom filter should
be able to hold around ~16 keys, which should be sufficient to give the
illusion of fairness to the shuffling algorithm.
This avoids having to shuffle the playlist itself (user might have
spent quite a bit of time to sort them, so it's not a good idea to mess
with it), or having to create a proxy model that shuffles (that could
potentially use quite a bit of memory).
This is a first pass at refactoring SoundPlayer so that the View widget
is decoupled from the player itself.
In doing so, this fixed a couple of issues, including possibly
inconsistent states (e.g. player could be paused and stopped at the
same time).
With the change, Player actually controls the show, and calls methods
overriden by its subclasses to perform actions, such as update the Seek
bar; the hard work of massaging the raw data is done by the Player
class, so subclasses don't need to reimplement any of these things.
This also removes some copies of playlist management code that happened
to be copied+pasted inside callbacks of buttons -- it now lives inside
a neatly packaged Playlist class, and the Player only asks for the next
song to play.
In addition, the menu bar has been slightly rearranged.
