I've been wanting to do this for a long time. It's time we start being
consistent about how this stuff works.
The new convention is:
- "LibFoo" is a userspace library that provides the "Foo" namespace.
That's it :^) This was pretty tedious to convert and I didn't even
start on LibGUI yet. But it's coming up next.
As suggested by Joshua, this commit adds the 2-clause BSD license as a
comment block to the top of every source file.
For the first pass, I've just added myself for simplicity. I encourage
everyone to add themselves as copyright holders of any file they've
added or modified in some significant way. If I've added myself in
error somewhere, feel free to replace it with the appropriate copyright
holder instead.
Going forward, all new source files should include a license header.
You can now register a GWidget subclass with REGISTER_GWIDGET(class)
and it will be available for factory construction through the new
GWidgetClassRegistration interface.
To obtain a GWidgetClassRegistration for a given class name, you call
GWidgetClassRegistration::find(class_name). You can also iterate over
all the registered classes using GWCR::for_each(callback).
This will be very useful for implementing a proper GUI designer, and
also in the future for things like script bindings.
NOTE: All of the registrations are done in GWidget.cpp at the moment
since I ran into trouble with the fricken linker pruning the global
constructors this mechanism relies on. :^)
This macro goes at the top of every CObject-derived class like so:
class SomeClass : public CObject {
C_OBJECT(SomeClass)
public:
...
At the moment, all it does is create an override for the class_name() getter
but in the future this will be used to automatically insert member functions
into these classes.
