Given the way the autosave feature was awkwardly bolted on to the
composer, an EExtension seemed like a natural fit. And it helped
clean up some object lifecycle hacks (and bugs).
What we have now is a new module consisting of two EExtensions:
EComposerAutosave extends EMsgComposer and determines when to
kick off an asynchronous autosave operation.
EComposerRegistry extends EShell and offers to restore orphaned
autosave files on startup (which is also asynchronous now).
e-autosave-utils.c holds the actual asynchronous functions and a few
other miscellaneous utility functions.
Source code for the new module lives in /modules/composer-autosave.
e_preferences_window to take factory callbacks and store a reference
to the shell. - This makes start-up substantially faster, particularly
on Atom (eg.).
Remove a number of idle handlers used to create these UIs in the
first instance, cleaning the code.
GIO had a bug for awhile where it would leave behind an empty
temp file with the pattern .goutputstream-XXXXXX if an output
stream operation was cancelled. We've had several reports of
these files in config directories, so remove any we find.
It just doesn't belong in Evolution anymore. We don't support syncing
with more modern devices -- see Conduits or SyncEvolution for that -- so
it does not make sense for older model Palm Pilot PDAs to be the lone
exception.
I have repackaged the Evolution-Data-Server conduit modules to be
provided by gnome-pilot itself in bug #619315. This should provide
eqivalent Palm Pilot syncing functionality; it's just being moved to
gnome-pilot.
This completely severs our dependency on deprecated GNOME 2.x libraries
which were still being dragged in by way of gnome-pilot dependencies.
It was also interfereing with our bundling of libgnomecanvas.
Convert the "startup-wizard" EPlugin to an EExtension, and fix up the
importing UI a bit (but it still needs a lot more love). Importing
progress is now shown directly in the GtkAssistant window.
Define a new EConfigItem type (E_CONFIG_PAGE_PROGRESS) for creating
progress pages in a GtkAssistant.
Also, change EMAccountEditor semantics slightly: you now have to call
e_config_create_window() manually after creating a new EMAccountEditor
instance. This allows extra EConfigItems (specifications for the window
content) to be added manually before the window is created.
