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).
This is done by reverting the following two commits which disabled
and hid the option on maint:
- Hide Account Substring option
(commit 197faeab3f)
- Reduce to compatibility shim
(commit 19fe7d8a56)
This small change will introduce an account full-name filter. Only accounts whose fullname containing substring will be selected e.g. ":Travel" will match Expenses:Travel:Holiday and Expenses:Business:Travel. This can be left blank, which will mimic previous behavior. This will ease accounts selection tremendously.
It depends on libgncmod-test-engine which needs c++ building/linking.
Without this change the next commit would produce the following linker error:
/usr/bin/ld: ../../../libgnucash/engine/test-core/.libs/libgncmod-test-engine.a(test-engine-stuff.o): undefined reference to symbol '__gxx_personality_v0@@CXXABI_1.3'
/usr/lib64/libstdc++.so.6: error adding symbols: DSO missing from command line
Making the test compila as C++ solves the issue.
For reference commit ff07762 and commit 5e7dd9 seem to be related and
have additional explanations.
Apparently that platform trips over a missing newline at the end of the generated POTFILES.in.in file.
Adding one allows cmake to complete configuration and appears to be fine on Fedora as well
(although it worked fine without the newline too).
Thanks go to Michael Jung <gnucash-devel@mailinglists.mjung.org> for reporting this and proposing the fix.
Instead of using the more generic string constructor. The struct tm
constructor is several times faster and this change speeds up
transaction loading by 2x.
Setting a feature writes to KVP which in the SQL backend causes the book
to be written out, which is rather expensive. Doing this in a loop (as
is the case in convert_imap_account, is quite slow, and this change
afforded a 4x speedup.
cmake:
- add test-app-utils
- rename test-link-module to test-link-module-app-utils
- add gtest-import-map
autotools:
- move gtest-import-map from TEST_PROGS to TESTS (autotools) so it shows up in the colored results list
