This is a squash of 50 commits.
This merges the capabilities of BatchCommands and Effects using a new
AudacityCommand class. AudacityCommand provides one function to specify the
parameters, and then we leverage that one function in automation, whether by chains,
mod-script-pipe or (future) Nyquist.
- Now have AudacityCommand which is using the same mechanism as Effect
- Has configurable parameters
- Has data-entry GUI (built using shuttle GUI)
- Registers with PluginManager.
- Menu commands now provided in chains, and to python batch.
- Tested with Zoom Toggle.
- ShuttleParams now can set, get, set defaults, validate and specify
the parameters.
- Bugfix: Don't overwrite values with defaults first time out.
- Add DefineParams function for all built-in effects.
- Extend CommandContext to carry output channels for results.
We abuse EffectsManager. It handles both Effects and
AudacityCommands now. In time an Effect should become a special case of
AudacityCommand and we'll split and rename the EffectManager class.
- Don't use 'default' as a parameter name.
- Massive renaming for CommandDefinitionInterface
- EffectIdentInterface becomes EffectDefinitionInterface
- EffectAutomationParameters becomes CommandAutomationParameters
- PluginType is now a bit field.
This way we can search for related types at the same time.
- Most old batch commands made into AudacityCommands.
The ones that weren't are for a reason. They are used by mod-script-pipe
to carry commands and responses across from a non-GUI thread to the GUI
thread.
- Major tidy up of ScreenshotCommand
- Reworking of SelectCommand
- GetPreferenceCommand and SetPreferenceCommand
- GetTrackInfo and SetTrackInfo
- GetInfoCommand
- Help, Open, Save, Import and Export commands.
- Removed obsolete commands ExecMenu, GetProjectInfo and SetProjectInfo
which are now better handled by other commands.
- JSONify "GetInfo: Commands" output, i.e. commas in the right places.
- General work on better Doxygen.
- Lyrics -> LyricsPanel
- Meter -> MeterPanel
- Updated Linux makefile.
- Scripting commands added into Extra menu.
- Distinct names for previously duplicated find-clipping parameters.
- Fixed longstanding error with erroneous status field number which
previously caused an ASSERT in debug.
- Sensible formatting of numbers in Chains, 0.1 not 0.1000000000137
... 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.
... See commit 3b90538b84 which removed the
only use of the untranslated strings.
Also follows better i18n guidelines for composing the VSTEffect description.
... 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.
- Dead code from experiments in SelectionBar removed.
- Many warnings about unused parameters fixed with WXUNUSED()
- Many warnings about signed / unsigned comparisons cleaned up.
- Several 'local variable declared but not used' warnings fixed.
... The keys are only ever used as internal identifiers in wxConfigFile
objects. So they are often space-less and camel-cased.
I have noticed a couple instances of translators confused by these.
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.
Moved one ASSERT that was in the wrong place and added a new one. This might give a little more information in mac debug builds about Bug 1636 - (Mac) Equalization: Crash selecting the "RIAA" or "Telephone" curves. This is NOT a fix.
... The return codes were mostly ignored anyway, and exceptions will be thrown
instead.
It seems there was also confusion whether the return values of Track::Paste
and Track::SyncLockAdjust were to indicate success or indicate whether there
was any change. No matter now.
... Strong, meaning that the file at the specified path is created or modified
only if all write operations complete without exceptions, barring one very
unlikely possibility that a final file rename fails, but even in that case the
output is successfully written to some path.
This commit does not add throws, but changes the type thrown to a subclass of
AudacityException, so that GuardedCall will cause the user to see an error
dialog in all cases.
Duplicated logic for making temporary files and backups is now all in one
place, the class XMLWriter.
There may be more new GuardedCalls than necessary -- the catch-all for the
event loop, AudacityApp::OnExceptionInMainLoop, might be trusted instead in
some cases -- but they are sufficient.
On windows the capitalisation does not matter.
On Mac/Windows we use 'audacity' in path names, even if the directories wxWidgets suggests have 'Audacity'.
