According to parted documentation, only "msdos" and "dvh" disk
types (or partition table types) support extended partitions.
All other disk types support primary partitions only.
Remove commented code and boolean use-C-lang parameter for
Utils::num_to_str() method because this bug was fixed in
gcc-4.0.3. The GNU gcc compiler versions 4 and up are now
commonly in use. Also due to previous partial commenting and
removal of the code, the code was non-functional
Thanks goes to Jan Claeys for pointing out this clean up
opportunity.
Restore copyright entries by original author to those of his last
known repository commit titled "released gparted-0.3.4 on
LarryT's request." on Feb 25, 2007.
Add my own copyright entries for files in which I changed source
code. Files in which I only made spelling changes do not have my
copyright entry added.
Auto detection of Linux software RAID devices was lost in GParted
0.3.8. This was because device scanning by the libparted device
call ped_device_probe_all() was replaced with custom code within
GParted to scan /proc/partitions for devices.
The reason the libparted call was replaced was due to a long
scanning problem with ped_device_probe_all(), a non-existent
physical floppy device, and a BIOS setting indicating a floppy
drive existed. See bug #351753:
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=351753
Improve the feedback to the user when creating or pasting a
partition on a device with no partition table found.
Prior to this enhancement if a user tried to create or paste a
partition onto a device with no partition table found, GParted
would present the user with a Create Partition Table dialog.
When creating a new partition this could cause confusion for
users who were trying to format the disk. The user could
mistakenly believe the choice of an MS-DOS file system was being
presented.
Similarly on a paste operation it could be confusing to be
presented with a dialog to create a partition table without any
explanation of why a partition table was suddenly required in the
midst of the paste operation.
Neither the new partition creation, nor the partition paste
actions were performed after the Create Partition Table dialog
was displayed.
It appears that different dmraid versions handle specifying a
single dmraid device differently.
dmraid-1.0.0.rc14 uses a partial name only,
such as "isw" or "isw_cjbdddajhi".
dmriad-1.0.0.rc15 uses a full name only,
such as "isw_cjbdddajhi_Vol0".
To maintain compatibility with the broadest range of dmraid versions,
the ability to specify a single dmraid device is being removed.
Some distros appear to display /dev/dm-# device names with
libparted. Since this fails a pattern match with the dmraid
device name, check with udev to see if a pattern match is
possible with the name returned from udevinfo or udevadm info.
For example:
/dev/mapper/isw_cjbdddajhi_Vol0 is the device name
/dev/dm-0 is a symbolic link pointing to the above device name
Normally, the blkid command will detect the UUID for a file system.
In cases where blkid fails to detect the UUID and the vol_id command
is available, then try using the vol_id command.
- Changed title Features to File System Support.
- Renamed button Refresh to Rescan Support.
- Created expander for legend and added narrative.
- Removed columns detect and read.
svn path=/trunk/; revision=966
* include/Device.h,
include/Dialog_Base_Partition.h,
src/Dialog_Base_Partition.cc: replaced 'long' with 'Sector' to
prefent overflows with really large devices.
* include/Makefile.am,
include/Operation.h,
include/Win_GParted.h,
src/GParted_Core.cc,
src/Makefile.am,
src/Win_GParted.cc,
include/OperationCheck.h (new),
src/OperationCheck.cc (new): added 'check' operation. The
functionality was already there, but it was not possible yet to
activate it from the gui.
* added support for reading volumelabels. Atm we only read ext2/3, but
the infrastructure for adding the other filesystems is in place.
It's simply a matter of finding the right commands and parsing the
output. (see #338528 for more info)
* src/Dialog_Progress.cc: make sure progressfraction stays between 0.0
and 1.0
* include/GParted_Core.h,
src/GParted_Core.cc: implemented rollback in case of failed move of
overlapping filesystems. Together with the readonly test moving
should be quite save now :)
* include/Dialog_Progress.h,
src/Dialog_Progress.cc: Show number of warnings after all operations
are completed. Also urge people to save their details in case of
error.
* include/GParted_Core.h,
src/GParted_Core.cc: declared char * buf global, so it can be
initialized in copy_blocks(). This is a lot more efficient than
initializing it on every copy_block()
* include/Partition.h,
src/Partition.cc: added test_overlap()
* include/GParted_Core.h,
src/GParted_Core.cc: perform a readonly testrun before the actual
move if destination overlaps source.
* include/GParted_Core.h,
src/GParted_Core.cc: update ntfsbootsector after first sector has
changed. This is necessary to let windows boot correctly afterwards.
* src/ntfs.cc: added FIXME
* include/GParted_Core.h,
src/GParted_Core.cc: tried to fix a couple of errors with moving to
the right with overlap (thanks Larry for hunting ;) )
Although everything seems to work well i'm still not sure if
everything is 100% ok.
I guess everything could use some more testing, which is exactly
what i plan to do this weekend :)
* happy 24th birthday Johannes! :^)
* include/GParted_Core.h,
src/GParted_Core.cc: restructured resize_move() to be more robust.
This will hopefully tackle a couple of issues which came up during
the public testing.
* include/Utils.h,
src/Utils.cc: added format_time()
* include/OperationDetail.h,
src/OperationDetail.cc: keep track of elapsed time between
STATUS_EXECUTE and STATUS_[ERROR|SUCCES]
* include/Dialog_Progress.h,
src/Dialog_Progress.cc: show elapsed time in the details per (sub)
process
* src/GParted_Core.cc: use Utils::format_time()
* include/GParted_Core.h,
src/GParted_Core.cc: fixed some issues with combi move+shrink on
fat* and hfs* filesystems.
Also call wait_for_node() from commit() if 'node' was provided.
* include/GParted_Core.h,
src/GParted_Core.cc: created set_progress_info() (i actually planned
on adding some time remaining stuff, but xfiles is waiting ;) )
* include/GParted_Core.h,
src/GParted_Core.cc: did some work on disabling of automounting of
removable drives. The current method is not entirely to my liking
but it seems to work.
* 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.
* include/Win_GParted.h,
src/Win_GParted.cc: construct operations in the activate*()
functions instead of in Add_Operation(). This approach allows for
more customization of operations.
* improved errorhandling a bit. At the initialscan we store
errors/warnings now in a list per partition and show the in the
partitioninfo dialog.
While executing an operation we collect all libparted exceptions in
a list and attach this list to the operationdetails when everything
is done.
* include/FileSystem.h,
include/GParted_Core.h,
src/FileSystem.cc,
src/GParted_Core.cc,
src/ext2.cc,
src/ext3.cc,
src/ntfs.cc,
src/reiserfs.cc: removed cylindersize buffering during resize from
the filesystems. It is not needed anymore now we calculate the new
position before calling this.
Also added some extra progressfeedback in the core
* src/Win_GParted.cc: added FIXME:
* include/GParted_Core.h,
src/GParted_Core.cc,
src/fat32.cc: decoupled libparted partition and filesystemresizing.
This resulted in a much more consistent core. This also affected
several other aspects of resizing/moving in a positive way.
* include/GParted_Core.h,
src/GParted_Core.cc,
src/Win_GParted.cc: perform some checks before adding a new
operation to the list.
* src/Partition.cc: made get_length() a bit safer
* include/Dialog_Progress.h,
include/Operation.h,
src/Dialog_Progress.cc,
src/GParted_Core.cc: show warning in progressfeedback if a certain
action is n/a. Of course we only allow these actions if the results
are non-lethal.
* src/Win_GParted.cc,
include/GParted_Core.h,
src/GParted_Core.cc: implemented snap to cylinder algorithm.
Although the algorithm is very simple, it seems to work perfectly.
However, some additional testing is required.
* include/GParted_Core.h,
src/GParted_Core.cc,
src/ext2.cc: added movesupport, atm in experimental state and needs
lots of cleaning. only enabled for ext2, but should work for all
filesystems.
* src/DialogFeatures.cc: added alternating rowcolours (see #342682)
* include/Dialog_Partition_Copy.h,
include/GParted_Core.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.
* Use ped_device_read and ped_device_write instead of 'dd' to copy
filesystems.
Modified progressdetails to provide more detailed feedback about a
process.
Basicly these were all changes to the infrastructure to make the
incorporation of the 'move-code' a bit easier.
( sorry, not in the mood to list all affected files ;)
* src/DialogManageFlags.cc: disabled resizing of this dialog
* include/DialogFeatures.h,
include/Makefile.am,
include/Win_GParted.h,
src/DialogFeatures.cc,
src/Makefile.am,
src/Win_GParted.cc: renamed 'Filesystems' to 'Features' in the
featuredialog to better reflect the actual functionality
* include/Dialog_Filesystems.h,
src/Dialog_Filesystems.cc: removed
* include/GParted_Core.h,
src/GParted_Core.cc: improved disabling of automounting. It's still
somewhat crude, but right now it's ok for some semi-public testing.
I'll do some cleanups tomorrow morning.
* src/Dialog_Progress.cc: added FIXME
* include/GParted_Core.h,
src/GParted_Core.cc: an initial solution for the automount problem.
I still need to add something to prevent just created partitions from
getting mounted. (see #324220 for more info)
* include/Partition.h,
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)
* include/TreeView_Detail.h,
src/TreeView_Detail.cc: made icon behaviour more intelligent
* src/GParted_Core.cc: small improvement in open_device_and_disk()
* include/DrawingAreaVisualDisk.h,
src/DrawingAreaVisualDisk.cc: fixed a few issues with
selecting/activating partitions.
* include/Utils.h,
src/Utils.cc,
src/Dialog_Disklabel.cc,
src/Dialog_Partition_Info.cc (mk_label): improved support for
aligment.
* src/Win_GParted.cc: fixed a small alignmentissue in the devices
submenu.
* include/DrawingAreaVisualDisk.h,
src/DrawingAreaVisualDisk.cc: another change to highlighting of
selected partition.
* include/Partition.h,
src/Win_GParted.cc: deal properly with just formatted partitions
* src/Operation.cc: added FIXME
* 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/DrawingAreaVisualDisk.h,
include/Makefile.am,
include/Win_GParted.h
src/DrawingAreaVisualDisk.cc,
src/Makefile.am
src/Win_GParted.cc: removed the frame from the visualdiskwidget and
changed some visual details. Also changed visual representation of
selected partition. The latter might be considered as a work in
progress.
* include/FrameVisualDisk.h,
src/FrameVisualDisk.cc: Removed.
* include/GParted_Core.h,
include/TreeView_Detail.h,
src/GParted_Core.cc,
src/TreeView_Detail.cc: show greyed-out mountpoint of unmounted
partitions in the treeview as an improved way to identify
partitions. (#333027)
* src/Win_GParted.cc: cleanups
* include/FrameVisualDisk.h,
src/FrameVisualDisk.cc: improved the algorithm to deal with lost
pixels after seeing some problems with rather insane
partitiontables.
* src/Dialog_Partition_Info.cc: minor cleanup
* src/GParted_Core.cc: show error in partitioninfo if statvfs fails
* src/TreeView_Detail.cc: added FIXME
* include/Frame_Resizer_Base.h,
include/Frame_Resizer_Extended.h,
src/Dialog_Base_Partition.cc,
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
* include/GParted_Core.h,
src/GParted_Core.cc: catch libparted exceptions and display them in
the operationdetails if an operation has failed.
* src/Dialog_Progress.cc: small cosmetic change to the errordialog.
* 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.
* src/FrameVisualDisk.cc: prevent crasher when visual_disks is empty.
* include/Win_GParted.h,
src/Win_GParted.cc: load devices at startup on signal_show instead
of dispatching it from the c'tor.
Also did some cleanups in the behaviour of opening and closing of
the operationslist.
* include/GParted_Core.h,
src/GParted_Core.cc,
src/Win_GParted.cc: deal with the rare situation when 2 partitions
are mounted on the same mountpoint. (see also #330327)
* include/GParted_Core.h,
include/Partition.h,
src/Dialog_Partition_Info.cc,
src/GParted_Core.cc,
src/Partition.cc,
src/TreeView_Detail.cc: store flags in a list instead of a string.
* Makefile.am,
src/Makefile.am: cleanups
* include/GParted_Core.h,
include/Partition.h,
src/Dialog_Partition_Info.cc,
src/GParted_Core.cc,
src/Partition.cc,
src/TreeView_Detail.cc,
src/Win_GParted.cc: support partitions with multiple mountpoints
(see also #330327)
* wrap mount/umount/swapon/swapoff instead of implementing it
ourselves (#330641)
* moved execute_command() to Utils and made the filesystems use it. All
in all this decreased the size of the binary with 10% and made stuff
more readable.
* include/Win_GParted.h,
src/Win_GParted.cc: it shouldn't be possible to remove an extended
partition which contains logicals.
* src/TreeView_Detail.cc: only show mountpoint column when there is
mountinfo.
* src/Win_GParted.cc: removed warning about busy device. It's not
really needed and it confuses people.
* include/Operation.h: set default status of operationdetails to NONE
* include/Dialog_Progress.h,
src/Dialog_Progress.cc: implemented export of operationdetails to
external file. This can be very usefull for debugging. (#329968)
* include/TreeView_Detail.h,
src/TreeView_Detail.cc: added mountpointcolumn (#304688)
* include/Win_GParted.h,
src/Win_GParted.cc: added submenu 'Devices' which allows one to
select devices from the menu (#329415)
* use Glib::get_tmp_dir() instead of hardcoding it as '/tmp'
* use Glib::find_program_in_path() instead af a system/which combi
* display current device in windowtitle
* correct partitiontype of destination is now set while copying
* resizing now return correct status (sometimes it would report
succes even when some of the suboperationes failed)
* fixed some issues with resizing and cylindersizes.
* removed Execute_Command() and replaced it by execute_command().
The latter uses Glib::spawn_sync instead of popen().
also made the filesystems call execute_command rather than calling
Glib::spawn_sync themselves.
* implemented Utils::sector_to_unit() and use it in several places
* (finally) fixed errors with ntfsresizing (had a lot to do with
difference between MB and MiB)
* resizing of reiserfs now shows more detailed feedback
* support for TebiByte (TiB) unit
* added detailed progressfeedback. It still needs some polishing, but
is already far better then the old situation. And what's more, it's
finally threadsafe :p
* include/Win_GParted.h,
src/Win_GParted.cc: added visual feedback when unmounting or
deactivating swap. This can be usefull when it takes longer then
usual.
* src/Dialog_Partition_Info.cc: removed separator in accordance to the
HIG
* include/Win_GParted.h,
src/Win_GParted.cc: it's now possible to deactivate swap from within
gparted.
* src/GParted_Core.cc: sleep one second after deletion of a partition to
give the kernel some time to reread the partitiontable.
* include/Device.h,
src/Device.cc: replaced 'device_partitions' with 'partitions'
* src/Win_GParted.cc: use new Device::partitions
* include/Partition.h,
src/Partition.cc: added 'realpath'
* src/Dialog_Partition_Info.cc: use Partition::realpath..
* include/GParted_Core.h,
src/GParted_Core.cc:use ped_partition_get_path() instead of
constructing it ourselves. (#325800)
Also use global maps for mountpoints and shortpaths to prevent
fileaccess from happening more then once per scan.
* include/Partition.h,
src/Partition.cc: added get_length()
* include/Utils.h,
src/Utils.cc,
src/Dialog_Partition_Info.cc,
src/Operation.cc,
src/TreeView_Detail.cc,
src/VBox_VisualDisk.cc,
src/Win_GParted.cc: from now on values >=1024MB are displayed in
GB's (#319840)
* happy new year ;)
* src/TreeView_Detail.cc: fixed some alignment issues
* include/GParted_Core.h,
src/GParted_Core.cc,
include/Operation.h,
src/Operation.cc,
include/Win_GParted.h,
src/Win_GParted.cc: removed confirmationdialogs for delete and
convert partitions (#319841).
Also renamed 'convert' to 'format' to reflect the actual
functionality.
* include/Win_GParted.h,
src/Win_GParted.cc: replaced deprecated OptionMenu with ComboBox.
also fixed some issues which arised when no devices were detected.
* include/Partition.h,
src/Partition.cc: overloaded operator ==
* include/VBox_VisualDisk.h,
src/VBox_VisualDisk.cc: rewrote the graphical partitiondisplay. It
now supports resizing and the extended partition is also selectable.
see also #312656
* include/Win_GParted.h,
src/Win_GParted.cc: use the new graphical partitiondisplay.
* src/TreeView_Detail.cc: minor cleanups
* include/Utils.h,
src/Utils.cc: added get_color_as_pixbuf() to create colored squares
of custom sizes. These can be use troughout the app to represent
filesystems. e.g. in the treeview and convertmenu.
* include/TreeView_Detail.h,
src/TreeView_Detail.cc,
include/VBox_VisualDisk.h,
src/VBox_VisualDisk.cc,
include/Win_GParted.h,
src/Win_GParted.cc: use Utils::get_color_as_pixbuf() instead of
custom drawn widgets.
* include/Utils.h,
src/Utils.cc: added mount() and unmount()
* src/Win_GParted.cc,
src/jfs.cc,
src/xfs.cc: use Utils::mount and Utils::umount instead of wrapping
CLI tools.
* include/GParted_Core.h,
src/GParted_Core.cc: did some cleanups
* include/Operation.h,
src/Operation.cc: added get_index_extended to get the ext_index in a
uniform way instead of calculating it every time ourselves.
* 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/Partition.h,
src/Partition.cc: added 'Glib::ustring mountpoint'
* include/GParted_Core.h,
src/GParted_Core.cc: implemented set_mountpoints() to set mountpoint
in partitions.
* include/Dialog_Partition_Info.h,
src/Dialog_Partition_Info.cc: use Partition::mountpoint instead of
finding it ourselves.
* include/Partition.h,
src/Partition.cc: from now on each partition has a reference to it's
device.
* src/Win_GParted.cc,
src/Dialog_Partition_New.cc: make use of new Set() from partition
* include/GParted_Core.h,
src/GParted_Core.cc: since ped_file_system_clobber() ignored reiser4
i've implemented a custom 'filesystem signature remover'.
Also made use of the fact a partition now knows on which device it
lives.
* src/Operation.cc: the get_string() didn't use
Get_Filesystem_String() and thus returned faulty strings. Also did
some cleanups.
* include/GParted_Core.h,
src/GParted_Core.cc: implemented a 'wait_for_node()' function after
reading http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=102343. I couldn't
reproduce the bug myself, but i hope this wil solve it.
Also made 'set_partition_type()' return a boolean for improved
errorchecking.
* hmmz, lots of shimmery internals..
Instead of using a boolean to indicate support for certain
features i now use and enum (NONE, LIBPARTED, EXTENDED).
This allowed me to clean up some stuff that annoyed me ;)
Still.. the core could use a bit more love...
* include/Makefile.am,
include/Win_GParted.h,
src/Makefile.am: removed Dialog_About.[h,cc]
* src/Win_GParted.cc: from now on we use Gtk::AboutDialog instead of
our own AboutDialog. Also use Gtk::Stock items instead of hardcoded
paths to images (about and harddisk).
* include/FileSystem.h: cleanups
* include/GParted_Core.h,
src/GParted_Core.cc: correct partitiontype is now set after creation
or conversion. (#322281)
* removed INSTALL
* compose/.cvsignore,
compose/Makefile.am,
Makefile.am,
configure.in,
include/Makefile.am: some fixes to make 'make dist' work (thanks to Daniel Holbach)
* src/Dialog_Filesystems.cc: fixed a11y thingy (#316108)
* include/GParted_Core.h,
src/GParted_Core.cc,
include/Dialog_Disklabel.h,
src/Dialog_Disklabel.cc,
src/Win_GParted.cc : get labeltypes from libparted instead of hardcoding them,
also changed some text (#315979)
* compose/ucompose.hpp: quick 'fix' for crashers in some locales (#157871)
* include/Utils.h: basicly the same + minor cleanups
* src/GParted_Core.cc: replaced C-style cast with static_cast..
* include/Win_GParted.h,
src/Win_GParted.cc: Replaced menu "Operations" with "Device" and "Partition". Also implemented a 'set-disklabel feature'.
* src/Dialog_Disklabel.cc: changed title and header to be more generic (was specific for a new disk).
* include/Frame_Resizer_Base.h,
include/Frame_Resizer_Extended.h,
src/Frame_Resizer_Base.cc,
src/Frame_Resizer_Extended.cc: finally got around to fix this annoying 'flickering' while using the resizer :)
* 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) .
* include/Utils.h: used static_cast<> instead of C-style type conversion.
* src/Makefile.am: install gparted binary in bin/ instead of sbin/ (as soon as i've time i want to implement a read-only modus)
* include/Win_GParted.h,
src/Win_GParted.cc: Added menu 'Operations' to menubar. This menu is a duplicate of the popupmenu and imho a bit unnecessary, but lots of
people requested this.. :) Besides this, i removed 'menu_devices' and performed a few other cleanups.
* Added support for reiser4 (only creation atm, since the other functionality appears to be non-free software :/ )
Also, libparted isn't able to detect reiser4 yet, a patch to fix this is underway, but i should probably add reiser4 detection to gparted as well.
* The Filesystemclasses: Changed 'bool Create( const Glib::ustring & device_path, const Partition & new_partition )'
to 'bool Create( const Partition & new_partition )'. Since i now use external tools for all filesystems, the partitionpath will suffice.
* include/GParted_Core.h,
src/GParted_Core.cc,
src/linux_swap.cc: fixed some issues with linux-swap. From now on you need 'mkswap' to create/resize/move linux-swap.
* include/Device.h,
src/Device.cc,
src/GParted_Core.cc,
src/Win_GParted.cc: Removed the ugly Get_Highest_Logical_Busy() from Device and added a classvariable instead. This one is set in
GParted_Core and used wherever needed. I also removed Device::busy, and used the new variable to check if a device is busy.
* 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/GParted_Core.cc,
src/Win_GParted.cc,
include/Utils.h,
include/GParted_Core.h: moved inline Get_FS from Utils.h to GParted_Core, saves a few K in exe size ;)
* include/Dialog_Filesystems.h,
src/Dialog_Filesystems.cc: Replaced treestore with liststore. I decided i didn't need a treeview after all...
* src/Dialog_About.cc: Replaced "Gnome Partition Editor based on libparted" with "Gnome Partition Editor"
* src/xfs.cc: fixed small error with creation of xfs filesystems (adrighem)
* include/GParted_Core.h,
src/GParted_Core.cc: Removed 'deep_scan' flag. From now on all scans are 'deep scans'.
* include/Win_GParted.h,
src/Win_GParted.cc: Gui is now loaded before anything else. (#161054)
* Added dialog (accessable from 'gparted' menu) which shows supported operations for the various filesystems.
I plan to put some more info in it, like what is missing etc..
* Refined checks for functionality a bit. e.g. even if a filesystem can't be read, it's still possible to grow it
(but shrinking gets disabled). Also removed that stupid grow_only flag from Utils.h and reordered Win_GParted::Set_Valid_Operations()
* added support for jfs (create, copy, grow) and hfs (create, copy)
* fixed a bug in copying xfs filesystems.
* fixed a number of small bugs/annoying issues.
* Added support for xfs. this means creating and growing xfs filesystems. Shrinking requires some hacking with dump_xfs etc..
i'll add that at a later point. :)
* Replaced boolean 'resize' with 'shrink' and 'grow'. It seems some filesystems only support growing (e.g. xfs) so i need
two flags to control the behaviour of the filesystemclasses.
* include/GParted_Core.h,
src/GParted_Core.cc: modified layoutscan a bit for improved handling of metadata.
* include/Operation.h,
src/Operation.cc: modified Insert_Unallocated() to prevent potential crasher.
* added MIN and MAX to filesystemstruct to set min. and max sizes of a filesystem. So instead of checking per filesystem
i now simply check the fs.MIN or fs.MAX. this results in less and cleaner code. Also this will come in handy when adding
support for new filesystems. (This also fixed several minor bugs with filesystemsizes and gained some improvement in resizer
performance)
* include/FileSystem.h,
src/FileSystem.cc: Execute_Command() now returns exit status of executed command
* the filesystemclasses: returnvalue (bool) is now set according to the return status of the command
* Every devicescan now tests on beforehand if the kernel is able to reread the partitiontable. If the kernel is unable to do
this, i disallow most operations. This may seem weird and even a bad thing to do, but the fact is it protects
the innocent user from a lot of potential damage. Till the linuxkernel is able to reread partitiontables no matter what, this seems
to be the best option. Of course a dialog with information will popup whenever such a situation is encountered.
In a next release i might consider adding an 'advanced mode' for users who know what they're doing.
* Harddisks without disklabel are now properly initizalized and shown in the menu. When one tries to create a new partition on
such a disk a dialog pops up with some blabla about disklabels and offers to create a disklabel. sweet :P (special thanks to mantiena-baltix
for bringing this issue to my attention)
* fixed minor annoyance with refreshing detailed deviceinfo after a 'deep refresh'
* include/Utils.h,
src/GParted_Core.cc,
src/Partition.cc,
src/TreeView_Detail.cc,
src/VBox_VisualDisk.cc: marked some strings for translation ('unknown', 'used', 'unused') and replaced lowercase 'unallocated' with '---'.
* include/GParted_Core.h,
src/GParted_Core.cc: fixed nasty error with resizing 'fixed-start filesystems'.
* src/Partition.cc: added a check to prevent unused space from being bigger then total space.
* src/ntfs.cc: removed -Q from mkntfs. -Q bypassed some safetychecks to gain performance and (so i heard later) also had a
tendency of failing ;) (Adrighem)
* include/GParted_Core.h,
src/GParted_Core.cc,
src/Makefile.am,
include/ntfs.h,
src/ntfs.cc: added full ntfs support. (couldn't test it very will due to the absence of a win32 box :P )
* Again way too many chances to create a detailed entry (i'm glad i'm the only dev atm :P ).
Resizing of ext2/3 works perfect now. I've even tested it on the partition holding my SG seasons =)
Implemented checking of filesystems (only internally used atm).
Done some overall tweaking, finetuning etc.. release 0.0.7 is getting shape.
* include/Device.h,
src/Device.cc: Removed bool Get_Any_Busy() in favor of public bool busy which is set in gparted_core.
This also fixed a small bug with incorrect mountdetection of logical partitions.
Also added a Reset() function to properly reset the contents of a device. to zero/empty .
* include/GParted_Core.h,
src/GParted_Core.cc: 'busyness' of a device is now determined in get_devices().
Renamed get_partitions() to set_device_partitions to reflect its proper function.
When a new partition is created to contain a copied filesystem the size is now properly set. This fixes
a very annoying bug which no one knew about except for me =) .
* src/Win_GParted.cc: use boolean busy from device instead of Get_Any_Busy() .
* Rewrote a large part of gparteds internal code. Filesystemssupport is now much more separated from the rest of gparted and
adding support for other filesystems should be a piece of cake now (hope that's true :P)
It still needs a lot of love, but the foundations are laid =)
* include/Operation.h,
src/Operation.cc: make use of reference arguments instead of return values in some functions.
Also fixed a small bug with deletion of a virtual (new) logical partition.
* include/VBox_VisualDisk.h,
src/VBox_VisualDisk.cc: logical filesystems weren't shown in the legend, fixed.
* src/Frame_Resizer_Base.cc: fixed small bug with custom cursors.
* src/TreeView_Detail.cc: removed obsolete, already commented code.
* src/Win_GParted.cc: make use of reference arguments instead of return values in some functions. (see Operation)
* instead of listing all partition in one list, logical partitions are now stored in a sublist in extended partition object.
This makes partitionhandling in gparted more natural and transparant. It also allowed me to clean up this ugly Operation class ;)
* configure.in: added checks for libuuid and libdl. Also refined libparted check a bit.
* include/Partition.h,
src/Partition.cc: removed Get_Color()
* include/Utils.h: added inline Glib::ustring Get_Color( const Glib::ustring & filesystem )
* src/Dialog_Partition_New.cc,
src/Win_GParted.cc: make use of Get_Color from Utils.h
* src/Device.cc: fixed a crasher with (at least) pl_PL locale.
* include/Dialog_Partition_Resize_Move.h,
src/Dialog_Partition_Resize_Move.cc: fixed some bugs with minimum size of resizable partition + some codecleanups.
* include/Win_GParted.h,
src/Win_GParted.cc: First load gui and then scan devices, this resulted in way faster startup and is more satisfactory (imho)
Also did some minor code cleanups and rearranged some functions needed for applying operations.
* src/Dialog_Progress.cc: few minor code cleanups.
* include/Operation.h,
src/Operation.h: minor (code) change in displaying errormessage. Made Apply_Resize_Move_Extended_To_Visual() a bit more
readable (and thus debugable). This whole class could still use a soft, caring hand though :P
* src/Device.cc: Unallocate space < 1MB wasn't filtered out. fixed.
* src/Partition.cc (Set_Used): Unused wasn't set properly. fixed.
* include/Device.h,
src/Device.cc: made 'deep-scan' optional in Read_Disk_Layout. Removed obsolete (already) commented function.
* include/Partition.h,
src/Partition.cc: Took used sectors out of Set() and added a Set_Used() function instead. Also added Reset() .
* src/Dialog_Partition_New.cc: minor change to make use of the new Set() in Partition..
* include/Win_GParted.h,
src/Win_GParted.cc: show pulsing progressbar while refreshing devices.
