To prepare for translation support, this makes all of the widgets
cognizant of the language change event that occurs whenever
installTranslator() is called and automatically retranslates their text
where necessary.
This is important as calling the backing UI's retranslateUi() is often
not enough, particularly in cases where we add our own strings that
aren't controlled by it. In that case we need to manually refresh the
strings ourselves.
critical() is intended for critical/fatal errors that threaten the
overall stability of an application. A user entering a conflicting key
sequence is neither of those.
1. This is something that should be solely emitted by the hotkey dialog
itself
2. This is functionally unused, given there's nothing listening for the
signal.
A checkbox is able to be tri-state, giving it three possible activity
types, so in the connect call here, it would actually be truncating an
int into a bool.
Instead, we can just listen on the toggled() signal, which passes along
a bool, not an int.
Given the array is a private static array, we can just make it
internally linked to hide it from external code. This also allows us to
remove an inclusion within the header.
Over time our config values have grown quite numerous in size.
Unfortunately it also makes the single functions we have for loading and
saving values more error prone.
For example, we were loading the core settings twice when they only
should have been loaded once. In another section, a variable was
shadowing another variable used to load settings from a completely
different section.
Finally, in one other case, there was an extraneous endGroup() call used
that didn't need to be done. This was essentially dead code and also a
bug waiting to happen.
This separates the section loading code into its own separate functions.
This keeps variables only visible to the code that actually needs it,
and makes it much easier to visually see the end of each individual
configuration group. It also makes it much easier to visually catch bugs
during code review.
While we're at it, this also uses QStringLiteral instead of raw string
literals, which both avoids constructing a lot of QString instances, but
also makes it much easier to disable implicit ASCII to QString and
vice-versa in the future via setting QT_NO_CAST_FROM_ASCII and
QT_NO_CAST_TO_ASCII as compilation flags.
This option allows picking the compatibility profile since a lot of bugs
are fixed in it. We devs will use this option to easierly debug current
problems in our Core implementation.:wq
Without passing in a parent, this can result in focus being stolen from
the dialog in certain cases.
Example:
On Windows, if the logging window is left open, the logging Window will
potentially get focus over the hotkey dialog itself, since it brings all
open windows for the application into view. By specifying a parent, we
only bring windows for the parent into view (of which there are none,
aside from the hotkey dialog).
Avoids dumping all of the core settings machinery into whatever files
include this header. Nothing inside the header itself actually made use
of anything in settings.h anyways.
This was initially added to prevent problems from stubbed/not implemented NFC services, but as we never encountered such and as it's only used in a deprecated function anyway, I guess we can just remove it to prevent more clutter of the settings.
