Michael Stapelberg b8ba545733 Merge branch 'fix-move-focus' 2014-01-13 23:36:34 +01:00
Tony Crisci 7639337716 Bugfix: `move <direction>` sends workspace focus
Make sure the command `move <direction>` properly sends the workspace
focus ipc event required for i3bar to be properly updated and redrawn.

Make `ipc_send_workspace_focus_event publicly available from ipc.h for
more flexible event sending.

Tony Crisci 612d25c12c i3bar Bugfix: don't show "EOF" status line error
When the `status_command` sends EOF, it is terminated. Terminating this
process prints an error message to the status line (hence, a race
condition). This error message is always more useful than the former
"EOF" status line error because it shows the exit code.

Michael Stapelberg 3ebc6654cd Merge branch 'fix-tray-mapped' 2014-01-01 11:10:26 +01:00
Tony Crisci 23b1da598e i3bar: Set `mapped` flag on trayclient creation
When a trayclient is first created as a structure in memory, explicitly
set the `mapped` flag to false. Otherwise it may initialize to `true` in
some circumstances without actually being mapped, causing a request to
be mapped from the client to be ignored.

Create the trayclient in memory before handling a request to be mapped
immediately.

Michael Stapelberg 0883dfbe14 only LOG() the DPI when it changes, DLOG() it otherwise (Thanks lkraav)
This avoids flooding stdout every time some text (e.g. a window
decoration) is drawn, yet leaves the message in place when it’s actually
relevant (upon DPI changes).

Tony Crisci bfe32ad797 i3bar: Print error message when status_command fails
Add a function to i3bar to print an error message in the status line
when the child process invoked by status_command fails to provide
input that can be displayed as a statusline.

When the child provides JSON that cannot be parsed, alert the user and
convey a short message provided by yajl communicating the specific
problem.

When the child (or the shell executing the status command) exits
unexpectedly, alert the user and display the exit code. The cases where
the status command is not executable or not found in the user's PATH are
treated specially.

Tony Crisci 5a69bffbd6 Remove pointer warp from test boilerplate
Remove the line to warp the pointer to (0, 0) in `new-test` helper
script, which is used to create new tests.

Since 4.6-g0634766, testcases may assume at the start of the test that
the pointer begins at position (0, 0).

Tony Crisci 1b640ae3be Testcases: init pointer in a predictable position
Tests may disturb the pointer in their normal operation that may lead to
unexpected results in later tests using that display. Reset the pointer
before a test begins to (0, 0) to save test developers from related
"gotchas" and reduce multi-monitor test boilerplate.

Tony Crisci 18ad1fd4de Refactor and improve test 514
Split test 514's assertion into three assertions to make it more
explicit what is being tested, and why a run might fail.

Move critical test code out of the event handler to clarify flow and
allow a query of the actual current workspace to use in assertions.

Works around an issue which caused this test to fail spurriously because
of pointer-related quirks in the i3 test suite which would sometimes
cause i3 to open on workspace 2 (However, the test is now agnostic to
the initial workspace or output).

Tony Crisci 39f15da82f i3bar: Group child processes for signalling
Set the process group id of the child process by calling `setpgid` after
forking and before calling `exec`.

The process group ID will be set to the process ID of the forked
process. Processes spawned by this child process will also have this
group ID.

Send signals to the process group with `killpg`. This will send the
signal to all of the process group.

Tony Crisci 80df764e55 i3bar: Realign tray clients on map/unmap notify
UnmapNotify events are interpreted by i3bar as an action taken by an
application to hide its tray window. Likewise, MapNotify events are
interpreted as an action taken by by an application to show its tray
window.

The actual cause of these events may be the application itself, or the
result of some action taken by i3bar itself at the request of the
application in the course of the XEmbed protocol.

We respond by adjusting the size of the tray window and realigning any
tray clients that remain. This will make room for the mapping window or
close the gap left by the unmapping window when the bar is redrawn.

needed to contain paths.

Michael Stapelberg 4f5e0e794f persist root window’s background contents to a pixmap
The commit title is fairly technical, so I’ll try to explain.

Recently, users of GDM3 (I’m sure) and LightDM (I think) have reported
that when switching to a new workspace, the contents of the previous
workspace are still visible. i3bar updates, though, so it is the X11
root window which is not being updated here.

When using GDM3, X11 will be started with -background none, and no
background pixmap or pixel is set. Then, apparently,
gnome-settings-daemon will display a fade animation from whatever is
currently on the window to the destination contents. I think this is to
avoid flickering when logging in, which would occur when just setting a
specific background pixmap or pixel.

So, this commit will, when i3 starts first (not on restarts), copy the
contents of the X11 root window (typicall a grey background, at least on
my machine with GDM3) into a pixmap and set that pixmap as background
pixmap. That way, the content will be preserved and one has a
background, instead of what is perceived as a bug :).

This commit has some chance of breakage, so I’m prepared to revert it
unless we can figure out the issues and roll forward.

Tony Crisci a1e7ce20f0 i3bar: Handle DestroyNotify events
Handle DestroyNotify events by removing the tray client from the tray
client list held in memory.

This change is intended to be part of the i3bar's implementation of the
XEmbed protocol. For more information, see:

<http://standards.freedesktop.org/xembed-spec/xembed-spec-latest.html>

According to the XEmbed protocol specification, this is one way for a
tray client to finish the protocol. After this event is received, i3bar
should have no more interaction with the tray client.

Tony Crisci 57822e3ed4 Remove-child callback skips output content cons
Every container 'above' (in the hierarchy) the workspace content should
not be closed when the last child was removed.

Add a check for output content containers and do not handle them. These
cons are at the root of the output container with dockarea siblings.
They may be run through this callback when an output is killed with
RandR.

Fixes an issue that caused content cons to become urgent when the output
is killed with RandR.

This removes code duplication, which will be useful for a subsequent
commit.

Furthermore, we now don’t open X11 connections unnecessarily in some
corner cases.
