This stops copying of each displayed partition object into the
TreeView_Details class.
It also stops copy constructing lots of partition objects when just
clicking on a partition in the disk graphic. The disk graphic needs to
inform the main GUI and then the partition list which partition has been
selected. The call sequence goes like:
DrawingAreaVisualDisk::on_button_press_event(event)
Win_GParted::on_partition_selected(partition_ptr, src_is_treeview)
TreeView_Detail::set_selected(partition_ptr)
TreeView_Detail::set_selected(rows, partition_ptr,
inside_extended)
Relevant source and highlighted comparison line:
140 bool TreeView_Detail::set_selected( Gtk::TreeModel::Children rows,
141 const Partition * partition_ptr, bool inside_extended )
142 {
143 for ( unsigned int t = 0 ; t < rows .size() ; t++ )
144 {
>> 145 if ( static_cast<Partition>( rows[t][treeview_detail_columns.partition] ) == *partition_ptr )
146 {
147 if ( inside_extended )
148 expand_all() ;
149
150 set_cursor( static_cast<Gtk::TreePath>( rows[ t ] ) ) ;
151 return true ;
152 }
153
154 if ( set_selected( rows[t].children(), partition_ptr, true ) )
155 return true ;
156 }
157
158 return false ;
159 }
Then in this function the partition selected in the disk graphic
(partition_ptr parameter) is compared in turn with each partition object
stored in the Gtk::TreeView model to find the matching one to mark it as
selected. This mere act of accessing the partition object stored in a
row of the Gtk::TreeView model causes it to be copy constructed. So
clicking on the 5th partition in the disk graphic will copy construct
the first 5 partition objects just to do a compare to find the matching
one.
This is because it is not possible to get a reference from a
Gtk:TreeViewProxy in gtkmm. Merely accessing a value in a Gtk::TreeView
model takes a copy of that value.

Bug 750168 - Reduce the amount of copying of partition objects
Change from passing a reference to the selected partition, to passing a
pointer to the selected partition in the signal_partition_selected
callbacks between the disk graphic, partition list and core GUI modules.
This is an enabler for the following patches.
Bug 750168 - Reduce the amount of copying of partition objects
Embedded devices (Android) use GPT partition names to identify
partitions, instead of file system labels. Add support for viewing and
changing them.
As partition names are used to provide unique identification they are
never copied when copying the contents of one partition to another.
Note that GNU/Linux uses file system labels, UUIDs or device names for
identification during the boot process and afterwards so while partition
names can be used, they are optional and purely for user information.

and GNOME Goal:

Include guards need to be unique within GParted code and all included
library header files.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Include_guard#Difficulties
Use this model for all include guards:
#ifndef GPARTED_FILE_NAME_H
#define GPARTED_FILE_NAME_H
...
#endif /* GPARTED_FILE_NAME_H */
Closes Bug #539297 - Make include guards unique
* 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)
* 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/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/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)
* 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.
* 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.
