after the trading account was created breaks GnuCash.
Revisited. The original changeset looked for a top level trading account
and a namespace account in the transaction currency; if either of those
accounts had been created in a different currency it would duplicate
them.
This commit will accept any such account regardless of commodity. If
more than one exists it will prefer the one in the root currency if
there is one, otherwise it will select the first one found.
the trading account was created breaks GnuCash.
Introduces a new function, gnc_account_lookup_by_type_and_commodity
that does that, though it also looks at name for the one special case
of finding/creating the Namespace placeholder account. Adds a parameter
checkname to xaccScrubUtilityGetOrMakeAccount to flag whether to look
for the name.
Namespaces aside this makes it possible for the user to rename trading
accounts or securities independent of each other.
Up to now, opening balance accounts have been identified by means of
fixed names and their translations, which in some cases is not
appropriate.
With this commit, therefore, opening balance accounts can now be
identified by a special slot, which should solve the above problem.
in gnc_find_or_create_equity_account(), when querying the
EQUITY_OPENING_BALANCE type, the system now first searches for an
account with an existing 'equity-type' slot having the value
'opening-balance' and returns it as an opening balance account if
one exists. If no corresponding account is found, the search is
continued as before. An account found in the process is automatically
given the status of an opening balance account (it is given an
'equity-type' slot with value 'opening-balance') to simplify the
future search.
The opening balance status of an account is visualized in the account
settings dialog with a check box. If a Gnucash file does not yet contain
an opening balance account, one can be selected in the account settings
dialog.

When the Imap Editor is loaded, the bayes KVP entries are tested to see
if they are required to be converted to flat entries. This involves a
function that scans every account and if it finds entries that need
changing, the change is made and book property
GNC_FEATURE_GUID_FLAT_BAYESIAN is added so further scans are not made.
As the Imap Editor loops over the account list also, if there are no
bayes KVP changes then the conversion function gets called for every
account in the list. This can also happen to a lesser degree when doing
imports.
To stop this a flag is set once the convert to flat function has been
run so it only runs once and only lasts for the session.
A new per-account preference is added to let the user decide whether the interest transaction dialog should be
opened automatically before the reconcile. This preference is only enabled for certain types of accounts and
the code that decides that was moved to Account.h as is it now used in two separate place.
There were several problems that broke the Imap Editor that have been
fixed due to kvp changes. The import-map-bayes entries were being added
to the tree view based on the number token entries squared. Retrieving
import-map entries resulted in an empty list and also deleting entries
from the tree view failed.
This commit introduces a new feature flag:
GNC_FEATURE_GUID_FLAT_BAYESIAN. It signifies that the bayes import map
data are stored flat and by guid. Any time bayes import map data are
accessed, they are converted if necessary.
The conversion assumed there were only three levels to bayes import
map kvp: IMAP token, user-supplied token, GUID/account name. In
actuality, since user-supplied tokens could have the delimiter in them,
there could be several. This fix takes that into account like so:
IMAP token, potentially several user-supplied tokens, GUID/account name.
The import map is undergoing two conversions at the same time: account names
to guids and an hierarchical representation to a flat representation in KVP.
The bayes data are stored in the KVP store. Before this commit, they are
stored under /import-map-bayes/<token>/<account guid>/count (where count
is the datum that "matters" in bayes matching).
The problem with this is that any token including the kvp delimiter
(currently '/') gets divided, and is not found correctly during bayes
kvp searching. The quickest solution to this is to replace all "/"
characters with some other character. That has been done, along with a
re-structuring of the bayes matching code to take advantage of c++
features to make the code more concise and readable.
Also modified some test functions to fix leaks and double-frees: the
same kvp value can't be in the kvp tree twice.
Also, when I added code to clean up after the tests, some things started
breaking due to double-delete. Apparently const_cast was hiding some
programming errors. Really? You don't say? When giving a GUID* to KvpValue,
the latter takes ownership of the former.
Since Account.c is now Account.cpp, the function signatures look a bit
different internally. The tests rely on function signatures in error
messages. Instead of trying to figure out what the exact
function signature might be, I use a substring matching strategy to
ensure that the correct error was issued.
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.
