Now use a pointer to the Partition object in Dialog_Base_Partition class
and derived classes, Dialog_Partition_{Copy,New,Resize_Move}. This is
equivalent to how the Partition objects are managed in the Operation and
derived classes.
The Partition object is allocated and copy constructed in each derived
classes' set_data() method, called from each constructor and deallocated
in the destructors. Considering the remaining Big 3, these classes are
never copy constructed or copy assigned so provide private definitions
and no implementations so the compiler enforces this.
Bug 759726 - Implement Partition object polymorphism
Lots of files which use the Partition class relied on the declaration
being included via other header files. This is bad practice.
Add #include "Partition.h" into every file which uses the Partition
class which doesn't already include it. Header file #include guards are
specifically to allow this.
Return newly constructed partition object by reference rather than by
copy from the Copy, Resize/Move and New dialog classes. This is another
case of stopping copying partition objects in preparation for using
polymorphic Partition objects. In C++ polymorphism has to use pass by
pointer and reference and not pass by value, copying, to avoid object
slicing.
The returned reference to the partition is only valid until the dialog
object containing the new_partition member is destroyed. This is okay
because in all three cases the returned referenced partition is copied
into a context with new lifetime expectations before the dialog object
is destroyed.
Case 1: GParted_Core::activate_paste()
Referenced new_partition is copied in the OperationCopy constructor
before the dialog object goes out of scope.
Operation * operation = new OperationCopy( ...,
dialog.Get_New_Partition( ... ),
... );
Case 2: GParted_Core::activate_new()
Referenced new_partition is copied in the OperationCreate
constructor before the dialog object goes out of scope.
Operation * operation = new OperationCreate( ...,
dialog.Get_New_Partition( ... ) );
Case 3: GParted_Core::activate_resize()
Temporary partition object is copied from the referenced
new_partition before the dialog object goes out of scope.
Partition part_temp = dialog.Get_New_Partition( ... );
Bug 757671 - Rework Dialog_Partition_New::Get_New_Partition() a bit
The copy, resize/move and new dialog classes (Dialog_Partition_Copy,
Dialog_Partition_Resize_Move and Dialog_Partition_New respectively) had
to be used like this:
construct dialog object passing some parameters
call Set_Data() to pass more parameters
run() dialog
call Get_New_Partition()
There is nothing in the classes which forces Set_Data() to be called,
but it must be called for the dialogs to work and prevent GParted from
crashing.
Make these class APIs safer by making it impossible to program
incorrectly in this regard. Move all the additional parameters from
each Set_Data() method to each constructor. The constructors just call
the now private set_data() methods.
The member variable was named selected_partition. It is assigned from
Win_GParted::selected_partition_ptr (which is a pointer to a const
partition object so is never updated). This gives connotations that it
won't be modified.
However it is updated freely as the new resultant partition object is
prepared before being returned from the dialog, most notable in the
Get_New_Partition() methods.
Therefore rename from selected_partition to new_partition.
The code goes like this:
Dialog_Partition_Copy::Get_New_Partition()
call Dialog_Base_Partition::Get_New_Partition()
Update this->selected_partition with results from running
the dialog.
return this->selected_partition by value.
Save value back to this->selected_partition.
Update this->selected_partition some more.
return this->selected_partition by value.
So there is an unnecessary copy of the partition object returned from
the base class Get_New_Partition() function back to the same variable in
the derived copy class Get_New_Partition() function.
Need to keep the base class Get_New_Partition() function as derived
class Dialog_Partition_Resize_Move uses that implementation as it
doesn't override it, and it's part of the interface.
Avoid this unnecessary copy by moving base class Get_New_Partition()
code into a new private function, called prepare_new_partition(), which
doesn't return anything. Then have Get_New_Partition() in both classes
just return the required partition object. Like this:
Dialog_Base_Partition::Get_New_Partition()
call prepare_new_partition()
return this->selected_partition by value.
Dialog_Partition_Copy::Get_New_Partition()
call Dialog_Base_Partition::prepare_new_partition()
Update this->selected_partition some more.
return this->selected_partition by value.
Bug 750168 - Reduce the amount of copying of partition objects
BUF in the copy dialog class, Dialog_Partition_Copy, is use to adjust
limits in 2 cases:
1) Minimum size when copying an XFS file system
Minimum size was set to the used space + 2 * cylinder size (typically
plus ~16 MiB). This commit from 2004-12-20 added it:
a54b52ea33
xfs copy now uses xfsdump and xfsrestore. icw some hacks in the other 2
Issues:
* This is increasing the minimum XFS file system size when copying it,
which doesn't happen in the resize case for other file systems.
* It allows an XFS file system to be created which is smaller than the
minimum size allowed by GParted. Copying an empty XFS file system can
create a new file system as small as 26 MiB. This is smaller than the
minimum GParted allows of 32 MiB because that is the minimum
xfs_repair can handle.
Remove this addition when copying an XFS file system and enforce minimum
file system size.
2) Maximum size when copying a file system into empty space larger than
it's maximum size
Maximum size was set to maximum file system size - cylinder size
(typically minus ~8 MiB). Only applied to FAT16 which has a maximum
file system size set in and can be grown. Added by this commit from
2004-12-15:
10e8f3338d
:get_fs now returns a const reference. in copy and resizedialog
...
* in copy and resizedialog filesystems with MAX set now have a max size of MAX - one cylinder .
Issue:
* This is applying a lower maximum resize when copying the file system
compared to that when creating the file system.
NOTE:
GParted currently allows all file systems to be resize to any size,
regardless of the maximum file system size. This is probably an
oversight, but it does allow libparted to convert FAT16 to FAT32 file
system when resizing.
Remove this lower maximum file system size when copying and resizing,
compared to creating.
Bug 749867 - Some limits are adjusted by arcane cylinder size amount
when copying and resizing in a single operation
This is part of parent bug:
Bug #721455 - Obsolete info in license text on multiple modules
and GNOME Goal:
https://wiki.gnome.org/Initiatives/GnomeGoals/Proposals
* verify all source files to make sure they have a license and a
copyright, and that both are up-to-date
Bug #721565 - License text contains obsolete FSF postal address
When an inactive LVM2 Volume Group is exported it makes it unknown to
the local system, ready for moving the member Physical Volumes to
another system, where the VG can be imported and used. In this state a
PV can't be resized.
# lvm pvresize /dev/sda10
Volume group Test-VG1 is exported
Unable to read volume group "Test-VG1".
0 physical volume(s) resized / 1 physical volume(s) not resized
# echo $?
5
Fix this by preventing resizing of such a PV. This has been coded in a
generic way using new function filesystem_resize_disallowed() to
determine whether a file system is allowed to be resized or not. For
a file system which can be resized, but is currently not allowed to be
resized, the behaviour is as follows:
1) Pasting into unallocated space is limited to creating a new
partition which is the same size as the copied partition.
2) Resizing the partition is disallowed, only moving the partition is
allowed.
3) Pasting into an existing partition will only copy the file system.
If the destination partition is larger a warning will report that
growing the file system is not currently allowed.
4) Checking a partition will also report a warning that growing the
file system is not currently allowed.
This is exactly the same behaviour as for a file system which does not
implement resizing, except for a different warning message.
Bug #670171 - Add LVM PV read-write support
A number of file systems report intrinsic unallocated space even when
they are created filling the partition. As reported using their own
specific tools, they are: jfs, lvm2 pv and ntfs. Therefore when
resizing a partition estimate its minimum size to be used sectors plus
any unallocated sectors up to the significant amount.
Bug #499202 - gparted does not see the difference if partition size
differs from filesystem size
When pasting a copied partition into free space or move/resizing a
partition set its space utilisation so that any unallocated space within
the partition is displayed correctly before the operation is applied.
NOTE:
If the file system does not support file system resizing the Paste and
Move/Resize dialogs don't allow resizing the partition so the preview
will always be correct, unlike the case in the previous patch:
Set unallocated space when performing simple operations (#499202)
Also remove the deprecated and no longer used Partition::Set_Unused()
and Partition::set_used() methods.
Bug #499202 - gparted does not see the difference if partition size
differs from filesystem size
Re-work logic for copying a cylinder aligned partition to a new
MiB aligned partition. Previously this was partially fixed in
bug #626946 - Destination partition smaller than source partition
Closes Bug #639393 - Redux: Destination partition smaller than
source partition
Make align to MiB the default setting instead of align to cylinder.
Migrate logic for alignment to cylinder into its own method
snap_to_cylinder, and place common logic in snap_to_alignment.
Add alignment checks for situations where space is needed for Master
Boot Record or Extended Boot Record.
Adjust ranges on spin buttons according to required boot record space.
Copy fix for off by one sector (#596552) from
Dialog_Partition_New::Get_New_Partition to
Dialog_Base_Partition::Get_New_Partition
Enhance resize / move logic for checking locations of nearby logical
partitions to not depend on the partition ordering.
Note: This commit does not include limiting graphic movement according
to required boot record space.
With the removal of the 512 byte constants, such as MEBIBYTE, it
was possible to rename the _FACTOR constants back to BYTE
constants. The _FACTOR constants, such as MEBI_FACTOR, were a
temporary measure to help in the transition to support devices
with sector sizes > 512 bytes.

* implemented some stuff to find a good blocksize to use for
copy/move. Actually i'm not really happy with it, because probing
seems suboptimal, but it's better than nothing. As soon as i have
some time i should do some research on the subject to find a better
solution.
* src/Dialog_Partition_Copy.cc,
src/GParted_Core.cc,
src/Win_GParted.cc: fixed some issues when manipulating a just
copied partition. (see also #349513)
* include/Dialog_Partition_Copy.h,

include/OperationCopy.h,
include/Win_GParted.h,
src/Dialog_Partition_Copy.cc,
src/GParted_Core.cc,
src/OperationCopy.cc,
src/Win_GParted.cc: made blocksize settable by the user.

src/Partition.cc: added set_used() and operator!=
* src/Dialog_Partition_Copy.cc,
src/GParted_Core.cc,
src/OperationCopy.cc,
src/Win_GParted.cc: it's now possible to copy from partition to
partition. (before this it was only possible to copy to unallocated
space)
* changed the way devices and partitions store their devicepaths.
Instead of holding a 'realpath' and a symbolic path we store paths
in a list. This allows for improved detection of mountpoins, free
space, etc..
Also fixed a nasty bug which showed up when you copy a partition
from one device to another. (thanks to mario for the report)
* include/Frame_Resizer_Base.h,
include/Frame_Resizer_Extended.h,

src/Dialog_Partition_Copy.cc,
src/Dialog_Partition_New.cc,
src/Dialog_Partition_Resize_Move.cc,
src/Frame_Resizer_Base.cc,
src/Frame_Resizer_Extended.cc: did lots of work on the resizer, it's
behaviour should be more natural and satisfying now. (see also
#331591)
* src/Win_GParted.cc: extended partition was resizable even when it's
busy. fixed.
* src/ntfs.cc: made scan output more readable.
* src/FrameVisualDisk.cc: added FIXME
* in some places i still used MiB's instead of sectors to store sizes.
this has been fixed everywhere. Only the spinbuttons still use
MiB's. I have a few ideas on how to solve this, but i'll take it up
with #usability first.
* replaced the inline Utils functions with static functions.
This shaves a few kbytes (24 in fact) off the binary and is a bit
cleaner code-wise (imho).
* include/Dialog_Base_Partition.h,
src/Dialog_Base_Partition.cc,
src/Dialog_Partition_Copy.cc,
src/Dialog_Partition_Resize_Move.cc: Fixed bug in copy functionality (due to unset ORIG_START startsector wasn't set correctly). Also have ORIG*
initialized in ctor of dialogbase to prevent such errors from ever happening again (this one only showed up with gcc-3.3.5) .
* src/GParted_Core.cc: removed sleep( 1 ). This isn't needed anymore now the layout is scanned before the re-readtest. (saves seconds at scantime :) )
* replaced C-style typeconversion with static_casts throughout the project.
* Added cylsize to Device and made Operation contain a Device instead of only the path and lenght.
This way i was able to dump Get_Cyl_Size in the Core. Besides that, i used cylsize in WinGparted and made a lot of
cosmetic changes. Most of them were pretty useless, but hey, i'm bored ;)
* src/Dialog_Partition_Copy.cc,
src/Win_GParted.cc,
src/xfs.cc: xfs copy now uses xfsdump and xfsrestore. icw some hacks in the other 2 files, it's now possible to shrink an xfs partition
while doing the copy. Although i'd rather preffered 'real' (in place) resizing i figured it's better then nothing.
Also the sourcefilesystem is now checked before the actual copy is performed. If damaged beyond repair, the copy won't start.
* src/Dialog_Partition_Resize_Move.cc: removed commented code.
