- QtSearchView was split into QtSearchView and QtSearchBox.
- QtSearchBox contains all Qt elements and can use them purely
- QtSearchView forwards calls from the SearchController to QtSearchBox
- Searching is initiated with MessageSearch to the SearchController
- Autocompletion is initiated with MessageSearchAutocomplete to the SearchController
- The search field is able to create filter queries by only giving autocompletions for the last token in the query
- For named tokens the search field adds their token ids to the query in the form of "A,25" for faster lookup
bug id = #21
This change refactors the GraphController to use the GraphAccess only with a single call that returns a Graph. The Graph
contains all information for visually representing the active Token with all parent and child nodes and edges. This
reduces coupling of the data and logic tiers.
This change stores each Token name in the separate singleton class Dictionary. The Dictionary gives each saved word an
Id and thereby avoids duplicated names. E.g if the constructor method "Graph::Graph" is stored then the word "Graph"
only appears once in memory.
The class SearchIndex is now responsible for the name hierarchy and is instantiated by the Storage. The SearchIndex
builds the name hierarchy using SearchNodes, each holding a Dictionary string reference of the name it holds. E.g if the
names "math::ceil" and "math::floor" are added to the SearchIndex then 3 nodes get created, the SearchNode "math" will
hold the two childs "ceil" and "floor".
The hierarchical graph creation functionality got split off from Graph into the new subclass StorageGraph. The
StorageGraph creates nodes with a passed SearchNode pointer of the name it represents in the SearchIndex. Thereby the
StorageGraph reuses the hierarchical information in the SearchIndex and can create nodes much quicker by avoiding node
searches and name comparisions.
The name information is now stored in the Nodes via the TokenComponentName class, which is subclassed into
TokenComponentNameReferenced and TokenComponentNameCached. The StorageClass creates nodes with the component
TokenComponentNameReferenced, which holds a pointer to the SearchNode instance holding the name. This allows for
retrieving the full name of the node, without using other Nodes int the Graph, which might not be present. If the Node
is copied then the component changes to a TokenComponentNameCached, which holds the full name as a string, so the
memory in the Storage doesn't have to be accessed anymore.
TokenComponentSignature is now only holding an Id of the signature string saved in the Dictionary, which speeds up the
signature comparison. A follow-up will change saving the whole signature as string to reusing the wordIds it is
consisting of.
Lastly the SearchIndex holds basic fuzzy search functionality. A passed query gets compared down the SearchNode
hierarchy as long as matches for each letter are found. Matches must contain all letters of the query. The search is
case-insensitive. If letters are found in front positions, next to each other or written in uppercase they are weighed
higher in the match ranking. The character ':' is also interpreted and found, although the '::' delimiter is not stored.
E.g. the query "m:l" used on the example above will return both "math::floor" and "math::ceil", but "floor" is ranked
higher because the 'l' appears closer to the start.
This change allows the user to use a simple query syntax in the search field to filter the results using names,
operators and predefined filters.
The class QueryTree is capable of parsing a simple query language consiting of QueryNodes, subclassed as
QueryOperators, QueryCommands and QueryTokens. QueryToken identifies a Token by name. QueryCommand represents predefined
filters. QueryOperator defines the syntactic relationship.
QueryNode examples:
"A" -> QueryToken that identifies the Token named A
class -> QueryCommand that filters all Nodes that are classes
. -> QueryOperator that concatenates filters
QueryExamples:
"A".class -> All Tokens named A that are classes
method.(private|protected) -> All methods that are private or protected
"A".member -> All members of A
"A":field.!const -> All fields of A that are not const (':' can be used instead of '.member')
QueryTree checks for correct operator precedence and validity of the query.
All QueryCommands can be found in data/query/QueryCommand.cpp
All QueryOperators can be found in data/query/QueryOperator.cpp
The parsed QueryTree is then passed to the class GraphFilterConductor, which is capable of applying the query on a
Graph. Each part of the query gets assigned a GraphFilter that filters the input Graph in order of node precedence. The
class SubGraph is used as intermediate container, only holding bare pointers to Nodes and Edges. The output Graph holds
all Nodes that match the query.
MessageActivateTokens is used to show all of the results in the CodeView. The GraphView currently only shows the first
Node of the results.
bug id = #6
* Annotations updated when active token Id changes
* FileName in window title
* Maximize button not shown
* Scrolls roughly to the maximized location.
* Maximizing also on double click in code snippet
Changed gui wording in lib and app to view wording, since MVC views do not necessarily deal with GUIs. And moved files
so structure is similar in lib and app.
The shortcut is added to the new Find menubar item and dispatches a MessageFind, which is handled by the
SearchController. QtSearchView assures via the ViewLayout that the view is visible when setting focus on the search box.
The graph views edges are now clickable. On click the edge and its connected nodes will be displayed.
fortune cookie message = Be prepared to accept an exciting opportunity in the future.
* removed const m_dimensions in VectorBase and replaced it with N
* changed signature of DummyNode::operator=
* fixed warning for DummyNode wrongly declared as class
Added simple layouting functions (implementations for simple grid and circle layout).
Also the graph displays class members and connections (edges) to or from them "correctly" now.
fortune cookie message = Your exotic ideas will lead you to many exciting new adventures.
Moved Storage instantiation into the Project. Storage access is still handled via the GraphAccess and LocationAccess
interfaces, but the ComponentFactory now only serves proxy implementations of these access classes. Project is
responsible for setting the subject of the proxies to the current Storage instance.
* activate token of most nested location
* show parts of locations with start or end outside of snippet
* (fix for multiple parsing of function and method bodies)
By now the graph displays the active node, without neighbours or anything, and clicking a node sets the active token id to the clicked nodes id.
fortune cookie message = Be prepared to accept an exciting opportunity in the future.
- Implemented autocompletion for the QtSearchView.
- Added: MessageFinishedParsing that will be dispatched by the Project after the parsing step is done.
- Moved the initial MessageActivateToken from the Project to the Application.
- Added getNamesForNodesWithNamePrefix() to GraphAccess.
- Added a basic SearchView (+ controller and qt implementation)
- SearchView can set the active element of other views by dispatching a message.
- SearchView adjusts its text when the active element is changed by other views.
- Added wrappers for Button and EditBox that allow the usage of simple callback functions.
This change refactors parts of the QtCodeSnippet and places some settings into ApplicationSettings.
Additionally Application- and ProjectSettings were abstracted to the common base class Settings, which takes care of the
getting and setting values of the Configmanager member.
- Renamed MessageActivateTokenLocation to MessageActivateToken, since it uses the Token id (not the TokenLocation id).
- Implemented CodeController to add one snippet for each location where the activated token occurred.
- Added Semaphore to QtThreadedFunctor to prevent an evil race-condition.
- CodeView dispatches message when a token is clicked.
Added some features to QTCodeSnippet:
* Code is now annotated using information from TokenLocationFile
* Start of line numbering can be set
* Clicking on an annotation in the code gives the corresponding Token Id
fortune cookie message = Your kindness will be repaid.
- Replaced CodeAccess with LocationAccess.
- Implemented basic functionality for CodeController.
- Added messaging to the project.
- Added QtThreadedFunctor to enable our Messaging thread to invoke calls on the QtThread.
- Added GraphController.
fortune cookie message = Good news from someone dear is coming soon.
This change switches the view creation architecture from element based creation in the lib to view based creation in the
app. This avoids wrapping of the Qt elements and instead defines interfaces for the different View implementations.
* GuiElementFactory was renamed to GuiFactory and is now responsible for View creation instead of Element creation.
* WidgetWrappers are now used on Views to access their root widget.
* Removed DummyView and DummyController.
* Removed GuiElement and corresponding QtElement files.
* Removed ViewManager, functionality is now handled via MainView.
* Added MainView, where Views are registered via the ViewLayout interface.
* Added QtMainWindow, derived from QMainWindow and instantiated by QtMainView, which displays the Views as QDockWidgets.
fortune cookie message = All your hard work will soon pay off.
Added CodeView interface and QtCodeView implementation for showing syntax highlighted code snippets. This change avoids
using the GuiElement hierarchy by using directly using QtClasses and creating QtCodeView in the QtElementFactory.
- added abstract class tree for gui elements.
- implemented concrete gui classes that wrap the qt specific content.
- implemented first DummyView which plays nice with the ViewManager.
