You can now amend the predefined actions in an EAlert by calling
e_alert_add_action(). Useful for adding actions from an existing
GtkUIManager.
Call e_alert_peek_actions() to obtain a combined list of predefined
and custom actions. These will typically serve as "related" actions
for GtkButtons (cf. gtk_activatable_set_related_action()).
Also, both EShellWindow and EShellView now implement EAlertSink. Use
EShellWindow for application-wide alerts, EShellView for view-specific
alerts.
In GTK+ 2.21.8, the keysym names were renamed from GDK_* to GDK_KEY_*.
I've added backward-compatibility macors to gtk-compat.h, which can be
dumped as soon as we require GTK+ >= 2.22.0.
For express mode:
- Move the search bar up to the toolbar.
- Hide the "filter" combo box and lock down the first item.
- Hide the "scope" combo box and lock down the first item.
(This is the combo box with "Current Folder" only in the mailer.)
- EShellView owns the search bar widget now instead of EShellContent.
- Insert several nasty hacks that will likely come back to bite me.

Replace the EVO_EXPRESS environment variable with an --express command
line option. (Note, this adds a new translatable string for --help.)
Add an EUIManager class with an "express-mode" property and custom load
functions that use our new "express" preprocessor. This replaces the UI
manager functions in e-utils.c.
(Also going to see if I can get GTK+ to add an "add_ui_from_string"
method to GtkUIManagerClass that we can override. Then we could just
call gtk_ui_manager_add_ui_from_string() and the preprocessor would
automatically do its thing and chain up.)
Add an "express-mode" read-only GObject property to EShell.
Add e_shell_configure_ui_manager() to e-shell-utils.c. For now this
just creates a one-way property binding:
EShell:express-mode -> EUIManager:express-mode
Call this immediately after e_ui_manager_new(). (EUIManager can't do
this itself because it lives too low in the dependency hierarchy and
doesn't know about EShell.)
The signal uses the name of the newly created shell view as the detail,
so for example "shell-view-created::mail" is emitted when the "mail"
view is created.
Also, add e_shell_window_peek_shell_view() to obtain a shell view if it
exists but without instantiating it.
Using these new tools, teach the templates plugin to wait for the user
to switch to the "mail" view before connecting to its "update-actions"
signal. Previously is was instantiating the "mail" view itself.
EFocusTracker tracks the input focus within a window and helps keep
the sensitivity of "selectable" actions in the main menu up-to-date.
Selectable actions include Cut, Copy, Paste, Select All and Delete.
EFocusTracker has built-in support for widgets that implement the
GtkEditable interface such as GtkEntry and GtkTextView. It also
supports custom widgets that implement the ESelectable interface,
which is a subset of GtkEditable and can apply to anything that
displays selectable content (esp. tree views and ETables).
This commit integrates EFocusTracker with EShellWindow, CompEditor,
EMsgComposer, and ESignatureManager.
It also bumps the GtkHTML requirement to 2.29.5 to utilize the new
GtkhtmlEditor:html constructor property.
So Anjal can override what it needs to for its own purpose.
Also makes the EShellWindow design a little cleaner.
Methods added:
GtkWidget * (*construct_menubar) (EShellWindow *shell_window);
GtkWidget * (*construct_toolbar) (EShellWindow *shell_window);
GtkWidget * (*construct_sidebar) (EShellWindow *shell_window);
GtkWidget * (*construct_content) (EShellWindow *shell_window);
GtkWidget * (*construct_taskbar) (EShellWindow *shell_window);
EShellView * (*create_shell_view) (EShellWindow *shell_window,
const gchar *view_name);
Also added some new GObject properties to help decouple actions from
internal EShellWindow widgets created by these methods:
EShellWindow:sidebar-visible
EShellWindow:switcher-visible
EShellWindow:taskbar-visible
EShellWindow:toolbar-visible
This addresses bug #593896 but is also a cleaner design than before.
It introduces an EShellView::execute-search signal and renames the
"search-execute" action to "search-quick" to clarify that it's only
meant for the "quick" search bar in the main window.
Shell view subclasses should implement the execute_search() method to
actually execute a search.
e_shell_view_execute_search() emits the new signal.
The contact and contact-list editors now demonstrate this part of the
shutdown protocol. They listen for the "quit-requested" signal from the
shell and prompt to save changes, discard changes or cancel. If the user
cancels, the editor calls e_shell_cancel_quit() to do just that.
Split the GTypeModule loader out of EShellModule as EModule, and rename
EShellModule to EShellBackend. Backends (formerly modules) should now
subclass EShellBackend.
This commit converts EShell but breaks all the shell backends.
According to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SavingTheWorld (and of course according to
the gtk docs) using g_timeout_add_seconds is preferred over g_timeout_add if a
timeout in seconds is desired.
Consolidate all marshalling specifications to e-util/e-marshal.list.
This reduces code duplication and makes it slightly easier to locate
unused marshallers.
I don't have to keep writing the algorithm over and over again.
Add EFileActivity, which provides a GCancellable for GIO operations.
Cancelling the activity cancels the GIO operation, and vice versa.
Also provides a handy GFileProgressCallback function which updates
the activity's "percent" property.

everything to GtkUIManager/GtkActions. Saving progress mid-stream... not
sure about the MIME part utilities yet.
Also, add some EActivity subclasses. Considering an EFileActivity subclass
for asynchronous GIO operations (loading/saving attachments, etc.), but still
ironing out details.

** Fixes bug #572962
* e-shell-window.c (setup_nm_support):
Pass e_shell_dbus_initialise() the right type of object,
and fix the incorrect function declaration.
* e-shell-nm.c (e_shell_network_monitor):
Go offline when we see NM_STATE_ASLEEP from NetworkManager.

Define a new shell module method named start() that tells the module when to
start loading data and running background tasks. Only really applies to the
mail module right now since the others use evolution-data-server. Basically
it prevents the mail module from loading and refreshing mail stores until
you actually switch to the mail view.

Use EBindings instead of a notify callback to keep other widgets and
actions synchronized with EShell:online. Cleaner and less error prone.

Make EShell a subclass of UniqueApp and handle single-instance negotiation.
When another Evolution process is running:
- Running "evolution" will simply present the existing windows.
- Running "evolution -c <view>" will open a shell window set to <view>.
- Running "evolution <uri>" will open an appropriate window for <uri>.
The second process will then terminate immediately.
