... removing link dependencies on them from src/menus, so they are now suitable
for moving out into modules.
They are:
Mixer Board
Karaoke (also called Lyrics)
History
Contrast
Plot Spectrum
Their header files are now no longer included anywhere but in their own
implementation files!
... And corrected improper connections in HistoryWindow and ContrastDialog,
improper because they got called with the wrong this pointer, to
the control instead of the dialog. But that was harmless anyway because the
handlers did not use this.
... This should have been done with commit 4abc71c
But the C style pointer casting (bad practice!) left the mistake compilable.
I reviewed all other casts to wxWindow* in the source and this was the only
bad one.
... that is, a factory function, open, close, import, undo/redo/rollback.
Also the callbacks from AudioIO, which need to invoke undo history push when
recording stops.
It is meant as a high-level class using several of the other things attached
to the project, while AudacityProject will be a low level class acting mostly
as just the container of the attached structures.
... Unnecessary because transitively included.
But each .cpp file still includes its own .h file near the top to ensure
that it compiles indenendently, even if it is reincluded transitively later.
... except Audacity.h
This forces us to make each header contain all forward declarations or nested
headers that it requires, rather than depend on context.
... though harmlessly so. They called to nonstatic member functions of classes
with improper this pointers; though the functions did not use this.
Bind events to nonmember funtions instead. Sometimes just to empty lambdas to
consume the event and ignore it, blocking other handlers.
... it's either the source of the connection that is being destroyed, or other
object (such as an ancestor window) transitively owning it and so causing it to
be destroyed too;
or, the sink is being destroyed, and that sink is a wxEvtHandler (which is
always so for Disconnect, though not for Unbind in case Bind was passed a
member function of a non-wxEvtHandler).
wxWidgets takes care of erasing the connection in such cases.
This removes most calls to Disconnect and Unbind. Many destructors shrank to
nothing.
Notably, in case of popup menu handling, the call to Disconnect is not removable
because the object being destroyed is neither the source nor the sink.
A 4hr track used to take about 20s to cut a few samples. This is now significantly improved, to around 3s. Leland did this by
(a) moving the size calculation to when we examine the undo history, so it isn't slowing down the edits.
(b) in size calculation, using sizes that are cached rather than going to disk to find the sizes.
(c) writing the autosave file which is to an FFIle to a string first, i.e. using XMLStringWriter as a buffer for XMLFileWriter.
Step (c) may also make autosave marginally safer, as the risk of a partially updated autosave file is reduced.
