Price Database dropping user:price-editor entries.
A wider problem: QofInstance was unmarking itself dirty as long as the
backend raised an error and unconditionally marking itself non-infant.
This matters because the SQL backend depends on infant status to decide
whether to do an insert or update query; either will fail if the infant
status is wrong.
The price editor dialog clones a price having only its commodity set and
GncSqlPriceBackend declines to save if the currency isn't set. Since the
instance marked itself non-infant even though it wasn't saved subsequent
commits tried to use an update query and since the price wasn't in the
table that inevitably failed.
Requiring that QofBackend::commit should doing the marking-clean
required implementing it in the backends where it wasn't already.
When compiling with -Werror, GNUCash fails to build due to various error: missing sentinel in function call.
This patch resolves the issue by passing nullptr instead of C-style casting NULL.
This starts by setting the gnucash version number in the 'project' call.
This will result in a number of variables set by cmake. The remainder
of this commit is to reuse the auto-generated
PROJECT_NAME, PROJECT_VERSION, PROJECT_VERSION_MAJOR
PROJECT_VERSION_MINOR, PROJECT_VERSION_PATCH and PROJECT_VERSION_TWEAK
instead of all the various instances of PACKAGE, GNUCASH_MAJOR_VERSION
and so on.
One parameter is worth mentioning - GETTEXT_PACKAGE
GnuCash is not using this directly (any more) but it has to be set before
including gi18n-lib.h.
Sets paths for finding componenents depending on the state of ENABLE_BINRELOC,
GNC_UNINSTALLED, GNC_BUILDDIR and whether any install paths have been set
outside of CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX.
GNUInstallDirs changes the name of CMAKE_INSTALL_LIBDIR depending on the
operating system and distro. When CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX is /usr,
/usr/local, or any subdirectory of /opt it also changes
CMAKE_INSTALL_FULL_SYSCONFDIR to /etc. An earlier commit by Aaron Laws
mirrors the name of CMAKE_INSTALL_LIBDIR to the build library directory.
It's possible for builders to set any of the install directories
anywhere they please.
Setting any directory outside of CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX breaks Binreloc so
the toplevel CMakeLists.txt now detects that and disables Binreloc.
If Binreloc is enabled then all path queries use it to find paths. This
works in the build directory because the gnucash executable and all of
the test programs are in build_directory/bin and LIBDIR, DATADIR, and
SYSCONFDIR can be found in the same root path.
If Binreloc is disabled then in order to build or run programs from the
build directory one must set GNC_UNINSTALLED and set GNC_BUILDDIR to the
absolute path of the build directory. When those are set GNC_BUILDDIR
replaces CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX in all paths that are subdirectories of
CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX; paths that are not in CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX are
appended whole to GNC_BUILDDIR. This process is constent between CMake
and gnc_path_get_foo. GnuCash is unlikely to run from a DESTDIR without
Binreloc.
It is split into
- /libgnucash (for the non-gui bits)
- /gnucash (for the gui)
- /common (misc source files used by both)
- /bindings (currently only holds python bindings)
This is the first step in restructuring the code. It will need much
more fine tuning later on.
