* include/Device.h,
include/Dialog_Base_Partition.h,
src/Dialog_Base_Partition.cc: replaced 'long' with 'Sector' to
prefent overflows with really large devices.
* 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)
* 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.
* 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.
* 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/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 ;)
* 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/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 =)
* 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 ;)
* 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.
