On Windows boost::filesystem::path's string() produces a string
that goes out of scope with the function in which it's called, so
returning its c_str() ptr yields freed memory, usually full of garbage.
This has an interesting side effect in gnc-file.c's check_file_path():
Since the memory is freed, g_path_get_dirname() reuses it after an
iteration or two, writing its result into the same address. The
following strcmp naturally returns 0 because it's comparing two
instances of the same ptr, so check_file_path falsely reports that
the proposed save path is in GNC_USERDATA_DIR.
Windows file uri's can be of the form 'file:///N:/bob.txt' so change
the gnc_uri_get_components to remove a left over '/' at the start so
gnc_resolve_file_path gets the absolute path correctly. Also change
gnc_uri_create_uri to add an extra '/' for Windows file uri's.
Add function to create an absolute file path from a prefix path and a
relative one. If the prefix is null, then the root directory of the
current path is used.
If the original date is an end-of-month date, we take it as an
indicator they always want monthdelta dates to be end-of-months.
This works for monthly/quarterly/halfyearly/annual.
Addendum to commit 65bfeaf5de which was
deemed to be an incomplete fix.
Also I'd forgotten to activate a test in test-date-utilities. Enable it.
this will modify a test which was calibrated to record purchase price
only. fix transaction creation to add prices for both purchase and
sales, and also fix test which was assuming no sale price was bring
recorded.
This is the general case for any transaction creation. Rewrite other
transaction creation routines to use it. All tests still work
unchanged, which confirms this function works well.
This will allow tests to create multisplit transactions, of an
arbitrary number of splits. If the list-of-split's values are not
balanced (i.e. total 0), the engine will create an Imbalance-CUR
split.
The motivation is to allow creation of complex multisplit
multicommodity transactions eg USD50 + GBP20 (USD25) = EUR66 (USD75)
as well as their prices GBP/USD = 25/20 and EUR/USD = 75/66.
* USD -50
* USD -25 = GBP -20
* USD +75 = EUR +66
This will be useful in creating tests for stock-based reports, whereby
stock sales need splits in STOCK/ASSET/INCOME accounts.
the option lookup mechanism will dynamically translate option
names. warn the user if this takes place so that the report writer may
use new option names.
Use the Scheme rationalize method to convert the decimal numbers
from Finance::Quote to ratinal numbers. This avoids rediculous
precision like 8515625000000001/3906250000000000 for 2.18.
If a saved-report with e.g. relative date, multichoice option is
unknown, the report would crash, and the Report-Options would
segfault. This commit fixes both: report-date defaults to 'today',
multichoice-options defaults to default-value.
Following this commit, if a report loads a saved-report or .gcm from a
future version, a gnc:warn will be emitted and the report will not
crash; it will use relative-date today. Multichoice will remain the
default value. Report Options will not segfault.
The user will be notified via a gnc:gui-warn dialog
gnc:gui-[warn|error|msg] are new global functions.
By default they mirror gnc:warn/error/msg. However then gnome is
available, they will display appropriate warn/error/info dialog in
addition to outputting to console.
Instead of recursing the date, we calculate the next month using an
index-based multiplier, and apply modulo/remainder as appropriate to
determine the next month/year.
Then we attempt to create new mktime, and if the resulting mktime's
month is not as expected, reduce the mday by 1 until resulting month
is correct. This fixes monthly intervals for end-of-month days.
Test via monthly/quarterly deltas, and also includes leapyear
calculation.
Revert using boost::locale to generate std::locales as boost::locale-
generated locales don't implement std::locale::facet and there was
a bug in the boost::locale ICU wrapper code that caused the wrong year
to be output for the last 3 days of December.
GCC's libstdc++ supports only the "C" locale on Windows and throws if
one attempts to create any other kind. For dates we work around this
by using wstrftime() to format according to locale and then convert
the UTF16 string to UTF8. wstrftime() interprets the time zone flags
%z, %Z, and %ZP differently so we process those first before calling
strftime. This will have the unfortunate effect of not localizing
timezone names but it's as close as we can get.
Use built-in glib functions to retrieve the list of per-currency price
lists, concatenate them into a single list, instead of doing it all in
hand-rolled loops.
Sorting is preformed by the calling GncTreeViewPrice so this removes
sorting from gnc_pricedb_nth_price.
There's no concurrency concern because gnc_pricedb_nth_price is a
GUI callback and so must run in the GUI thread.
