Mac and Linux (correctly) allow files to be saved with an arbitrary
file extension, or no file extension at all. For the exported file
to be visible in the export dialog, the dialog must include an optional
wildcard for "All files".
... 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.
... I think this is a defect in wxWidgets, but one we can work around with a
simple wrapper class around wxSlider overriding one method.
To make the fix complete, change all occurrences of "safenew wxSlider"
but the one in ShuttleGui.cpp covers most cases
... except Audacity.h; and in no others.
Do so even if Experimental.h gets multiply included, as in both the .h and
.cpp files.
This makes it easier to do a text scan to be sure there are no unintended quiet
changes of meaning because of omission of Experimental.h when the flag is
an enabled one.
Also move inclusions of Experimental.h earlier.
Also don't require Experimental.h to be preceded by Audacity.h to define
EXPERIMENTAL_MIDI_OUT correctly.
... which will make it easier to change the types of those containers to
std::vectors of other string-like classes
for wxString,
IsEmpty => empty
Clear => clear
Alloc => reserve
for wxArrayString,
Count => size
GetCount => size
IsEmpty => empty
Add => push_back
Clear => clear
Empty => clear
Sort => std::sort (only with default comparator)
SetCount => resize
Last => back
Item => operator []
Alloc => reserve
All backing bitmaps (not just the one in track panel) now are set to 24 bits.
Big thanks to David Bailes for tracking down the root cause of slow BitBlts, and the comments at https://trac.wxwidgets.org/ticket/14403 which led to the fix.
In testing the bitmaps, I also fixed the sizer errors reported for Export.cpp that wxWidgets now reports as ASSERTS when running in debug builds.
... Replace some enum constants with the equivalent values from the more
special-purpose enums, as the wx header files recommend, so overloading
selects the ctors with non-int arguments.
In a full rebuild of the debug project on Mac, this reduces the count of
warnings from 264 to 274.
... and similar wx "variadics," which all treat wxString smartly enough that
you don't need this.
Don't need c_str either to convert wxString to const wxChar * because
wxString has a conversion operator that does the same.
Previously this was hard coded to use the online alphamanual.
Some other help-on-errors paths were hardcoded to use the online manual, and did not use local help even if available, so these were changed too.
Also two naming changes in the code:
ShowHelpDialog() became ShowHelp() because it typically shows the help in your browser, only showing the help in a dialog under certain circumstances.
The helpURL parameter became helpPage since it is usually a page name that is then elaborated into a url.
The Link() function became InnerLink().
Some careful http -> https changes made too.
... with run-time assertions.
I examined each place and reasoned that the narrowing was safe, and commented
why so.
Again, there are places where the sampleCount variable will later be changed
to have a different type, and they are not changed here.
... This makes much code agnostic about how other things (functions and
arguments) are typed.
Many of these neeed to become size_t instead of sampleCount.
