At present these are
- log.conf
- config-user.scm (previously config.user-2.0)
Implement one-time migration of these files to the proper directory if they previously exist
Look for a log.conf file in gnc_userconfig_dir instead of gnc_userdata_dir
Note this commit also uses boost::locale::translate for the first time.
We may need to fine-tune our use, but in the current state strings marked
for translation using that function are already picked up for gnucash.pot.
Move the CSS settings file to a location based on XDG_CONFIG_HOME which
is OS dependant but with slight changes for Windows and OS X.
- Windows: CSIDL_APPDATA/Gnucash
- OS X: $HOME/Application Support/Gnucash
- Linux: $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/gnucash (or the default $HOME/.config/gnucash)
- Don't attempt to create a subdirectory of a non-existing home directory (use tmpdir as base directory in that case)
- Make sure all tests run in an environment with GNC_BUILDDIR and GNC_UNINSTALLED set. Otherwise
the one-shot old .gnucash to new GNC_DATA_HOME migration may already have run at build time,
preventing us from informing the user a run time.
- Re-enable the userdata-dir with invalid home test (linux only).
It will no longer attempt to use /home/janssege/.gnucash. That was
requiring lots of extra conditions.
It will also default to a base directory (gnc_data_home) in the
build dir if it detects the code is run during building or testing.
That again allows to simplify it as there's no need for temp dir
juggling in case the build environment doesn't have a writable home dir.
The swig wrappers don't really depend on git (but rather on swig) and there can be
situations the builder wants to generate the wrappers also from a tar ball.
When building from git it will add targets to generate the swig files.
When building from tarball it will just point at the generated source
files from the tarball.

- the two dist_add_... macros now both take a list of file names
as argument so more files can be added at once to the dist tarball.
- dist_add_generated now creates the right target by itself. There's
no need to pass one any more
- make the swig generated *.py module files explicit output files
- change a couple of custom_targets into custom_commands. The only
reason they were defined as targets was to ensure they got built
before the dist tarball. This is now properly handled by the
dist_add_... macros.
- correctly handle dependency on swig-runtime.h (using OBJECT_DEPENDS
was not the way to do it according to that property's help page)
cmake with unix makefiles fails to resolve dist dependencies
added from COPY_FROM_BUILD if these dependencies aren't built yet.
This commit replaces the COPY_FROM_BUILD based logic with two new functions
'dist_add_configured' and 'dist_add_generated' to indicate which files should
be included in the dist tarball. The latter also adds a target level dependency
to the dist tarball custom command. Hence the former should
be used for files that get generated during a cmake run while the latter
should be used for files generated as the result of a 'make/ninja-build' run
(like files for which an add_custom_command rule exists).
Note: this commit also temporarily disables the dist target when building
from a tarball (and hence it won't be tested in distcheck either). This
will be handled in a future commit.
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.
The preference schema migration collects all schema mutations that can occur
when upgrading to a newer gnucash version. The old gconf to gsettings conversion is
integrated in this system as well. Newer schema mutations will happen based on version
number upgrades though.
The preference that got replaced is "use-theme-colors". Based on discussion in bug 746163
(https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=746163) and gnucash-docs PR#105
(https://github.com/Gnucash/gnucash-docs/pull/105) this has been replaced with
"use-gnucash-color-theme" with inverted meaning. The old option is kept around for one or
two major release cycles to allow seamless conversion.
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.
This will avoid a ninja-build from picking up a config.h generated by the autotools build
(in the root build directory). Picking up the wrong config.h may lead to all kinds of
subtle issues if the autotools run was done with different options than the cmake run.
This effectively replaces the use of GNUCASH_BUILD_DATE with GNUCASH_SCM_REV_DATE.
The latter is extracted from the current commit if building from some kind of vcs
(currently only works correctly for svn and git). The info extracted while building
from vcs is then also added to the dist tarball so it's available when building
from tarball as well (via the file libgnucash/core-utils/gnc-vcs-info.h).
The same date is also used to set the date in gnucash' man page document.
A practical detail: I have changed the substitution variables in the man page template
from @- -@ to ${} so we could leverage CONFIGURE_FILE in cmake. The necessary
related adjustments have also been made to Makefile.am's substitution rules.
userdata_home is a different directory on each platform we support (default /home/janssege/.local/share on linux for example)
and gnc_userdata_home is normally userdata_home/GnuCash.
These directories may not always exist (yet) in all circumstances, so properly handle
all of these possible situations.
- have gnc_validate_directory throw as well in case of a missing directory
that it shouldn't create. This allows to remove 3 other throws
- slightly adjust the error message in case of missing directory
- never migrate when the final directory is a temporary (sub)directory
The utf8 conversion is only used in the Windows specific section so there's no
need to define an overloaded function on std::string in this case.
Also CMakeLists.txt doesn't require the MingW specific library name setting
for boost::filesystem. Just removing the hardcoded one allows the build to
pick the right name up from the Boost_LIBRARIES variable.
This latter file can be created by the administrator next to the environment
file in order to override parameters set in environment file.
The reason for this is the environment file is always overwritten
during installation, while environment.local is never touched by
the installers. So making the changes in there ensures they persist
acros gnucash updates.
- Linux: use whatever the xdg spec dictates
- Windows: use AppData(Roaming)
- OS X/Quarz: use NSApplicationSupportDirectory special directory, which
typically resolves to $HOME/Library/Application Support
If the preferred directory can't be used the code will fallback to
$HOME/.gnucash (the old location) if it exists. It won't create it
however. Instead if missing it will fall back to the platform's
temporary directory.
Code is added also to automatically migrate all data from the old
location to the new (only the first time).
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.
