When a resize_aspect_ratio is specified, and window will only be resized
to a multiple of that ratio. When resize_aspect_ratio is set, windows
cannot be tiled.
This prevents windows from being opened directly on top of eachother,
and provides default behavior for when window position is not specified.
The new behavior is as follows:
- Windows that have been created without a set position are assigned one
by WindowServer.
- The assigned position is either offset from the last window that is
still in an assigned position, or a default position if no such window
is available.
Accessory windows are windows that, when activated, will activate
their parent and bring all other accessory windows of that parent
to the front of the window stack. Accessory windows can only be
active input windows. The accessory window's parent is always the
active window regardless of whether it is also the active input
window.
In order to route input correctly, input is now sent to the active
input window, which can be any accessory window or their parent,
or any regular window.
IPC::ClientConnection now tracks the time since the last time we got
a message from the client and calls a virtual function on itself after
3 seconds: may_have_become_unresponsive().
Subclasses of ClientConnection can then react to this if they like.
We use this mechanism in WindowServer to send out a friendly Ping
message to the client. If he doesn't Pong within 1 second, we mark
the client as "unresponsive" and recompose all of his windows with
a darkened appearance and amended title until he Pongs us.
This is a little on the aggressive side and we should figure out a way
to wake up less often. Perhaps this could only be done to windows the
user is currently interacting with, for example.
Anyways, this is pretty cool! :^)
Each window now has an associated progress integer that can be updated
via the SetWindowProgress IPC call.
This can be used by clients to indicate the progress of ongoing tasks.
Any number in the range 0 through 100 indicate a progress percentage.
Any other number means "no progress"
You can now mark String message parameters with the [UTF8] attribute.
This will cause the generated decoder to perform UTF-8 validation and
reject the message if the given parameter is not a valid UTF-8 string.
This frees up the receiving side from having to do this validation at
a higher level.
This commit moves the clipboard from WindowServer into a new Clipboard
service program. Clipboard runs as the unprivileged "clipboard" user
and with a much tighter pledge than WindowServer.
To keep things working as before, all GUI::Application users now make
a connection to Clipboard after making the connection to WindowServer.
It could be interesting to connect to Clipboard on demand, but right
now that would necessitate expanding every GUI app's pledge to include
"unix" and also unveiling the clipboard portal, which I prefer not to.
It didn't feel right to have a "DHCPClient" in a "Servers" directory.
Rename this to Services to better reflect the type of programs we'll
be putting in there.
