The existing API required calling the one constructor with
specific pointers (nullptr for a partition-from-free-space)
followed by calling one of the initFrom*() functions. This
is fragile design.
Use tag-classes to distinguish create-from-free-space and
edit-another-freshly-created-partition cases, refactor
to merge the initFrom*() methods into the constructors
and factor out the shared UI creation.
Callers can now use the tag-class to distinguish. While
here, adjust both callers to use QPointer, avoiding some
very specific dialog-on-the-stack crash possibilities.
When a partition is set as "freshly created", the dialog was
passing in newFlags() as the **already-active** flags on the
partition; then the caller was setting those same flags as
"set these in the future", so that afterwards, no flags would
actually be set (because they're already active -- see the
first sentence).
Now, fresh partitions have no flags.
You'll need a VM with 2 disks to demonstrate:
- Configure Calamares to pick "none" as initial action on
the partition page (this is a safe choice),
- Enter partition page,
- No action is selected, and the next> button is greyed out.
- Click erase; notice next> is now available.
- Change devices, notice no action is selected, but next>
is still available. Clicking on it, though, does nothing.
When changing to "no action", update the next-button's
availability.
In particular, we need a separate Job class to set the label; this
is invoked after we formatted a partition, and when no other changes
to the partition have been requested in the Edit dialog.
When creating or editing a new formatted partition, allow
to set a filesystem label (16 chars maximum). Modify
the KPMHelpers to accept it as a new parameter. Partitions
created by default may get a meaningful label too.
- factor out the flags-we-want from the flags-we-already-have
- the use of ->activeFlags() meant that the state on *disk* was
being compared with the flags-we-want; if a partition was re-edited,
then you couldn't change the flags back to the state-on-disk
(eg. enable a flag, then change your mind and disable it).
- set the flags before refreshing the partition, because the
refresh checks for EFI bootability and that needs the new flags,
not the old ones.
- remove the m_defaultFSType from PartitionLayout, because it is
set on construction -- which is too early, before the configuration
has been read.
- make the default FS explicit in the init() calls which pass in
a configuration; this needs support in the intermediate
PartitionCoreModule.
The code doesn't match the comment: there are no by-ref captures
in the code, and the shadowing of parameters and local variables
is confusing. Remove one variable that is passed in as an argument
(and just pass the value as argument) and copy-capture the other
rather than doing weird argument passing.
- remove unused this captures from lambda
- rename variables that are short, cryptic, and shadowed
- remove documentation for parameters that don't exist
This commit adds the new configuration `swapPartitionName` to the file
partition.conf.
This option sets the partition name to the swap partition that is
created. If this option is unset, the partition is left unnamed.
- The logic of the method initLayout belongs to the object
PartitionLayout. Move logic to that object.
- Use a single method initLayout in object PartitionCoreModule.
- Member m_partLayout in object PartitionCoreModule is no longer
allocated.
