src: Yearly copyright bump This time on time!
common: Make SyncableObject non-copyable QObjects are non-copyable for good reasons. SyncableObject, although deriving from QObject, was made sort-of copyable by adding custom copy ctor and copy assignment operator that did not make a full copy of the underlying QObject, but just copied (most) properties. Several classes deriving from SyncableObject then implemented their own versions of those special member functions on top of that. This was not only rather unexpected and intransparent behavior due to the incomplete copy functionality, but also a most fragile hack since one had to remember to update those functions when adding or modifying properties. In addition, newer compilers apply a somewhat stricter interpretation of the C++ standard, basically enforcing the Rule of Three by omitting implicit generation of copy ctor and/or copy assignment operating in case certain user-defined special member functions exist. In particular, Clang 10 started to emit several warnings (and we already worked around a similar warning from GCC 9+ in cc21148). Instead of adding more workarounds further obfuscating matters, remove the relevant special member functions altogether and thus make SyncableObject and its derivatives non-copyable as they should be. Modify affected code to cope with this cleanly, and without abusing unexpected behavior.

src: Yearly copyright bump ... and it's still January!
modernize: Reformat ALL the source... again! It's been more than six years since we last used an autoformatter on the codebase. Tooling has progressed, so has the language and of course our personal preferences. Use clang-format this time to reformat the whole codebase, following the rules laid out in .clang-format (which one can use for configuring an IDE, too, if it supports autoformatting). Overall, the new style is not too different from what we used before, with one significant change: We now attach pointer/reference indicators (*&) to the type rather than the name, i.e. we left-align. While this is a major deviation from the Qt style which we use for almost everything else, it aligns more closely with many other projects, as well as the C++ documentation and STL. It also makes more sense semantically, because */& are really part of the type. Other changes include (but are not limited to): - Use only one blank line between function definitions - Categorize includes from generic/system to local, sorting each category alphabetically. The generic-to-local sort order seems to be more common than the other way round, so we use that. - In .cpp files, the corresponding header is always included first. This is a general recommendation, because it makes it harder to accidentally introduce a reliance on transitive includes in headers. - Consistently break initializers in ctors before the comma, so the commas are left-aligned together with the colon. - Use two spaces between code and trailing comments. Note that sometimes even clang-format gets things wrong. In a few places, formatting was manually fixed; however, reviewing a diff of almost 80k lines is a rather boring task, so we didn't thoroughly go through all the changes. Wrong formatting can always be fixed in follow-up commits, anyway. Note also that we don't intend to re-run clang-format on a regular basis, nor do we want to religiously follow a hardcoded set of rules for new code in the future. Where it makes sense, the rules may be bent in favor of better readability or more pleasing code.
modernize: Replace most remaining old-style connects by PMF ones Manually replace old-style connects (using the SIGNAL/SLOT macros) by the much more efficient and typesafe pointer-to-member-function- based ones. This fixes the cases where clazy could not auto-migrate to the new syntax for a variety of reasons. In most of the cases, we need to remove overloads or explicitly select the desired one, because the plain syntax cannot deal with overloads. Another issue is trying to connect to signals in a baseclass that are only declared in a derived class (which works with the old-style runtime connection handling, but obviously no longer with the compile-time version). Also do some selected cleanups in places.
modernize: Use braced-init list when returning types
modernize: Prefer default member init over ctor init Where appropriate, initialize class members in the header rather than in the constructor.
modernize: Use override instead of virtual Let clang-tidy fix all occurrences where override should be used instead of virtual. Also, let it annotate member functions where virtual was missing in the first place.
modernize: Use nullptr Let clang-tidy fix all occurrences where nullptr should be used instead of 0.
Semi-yearly copyright bump It's no longer 2016.
Bring copyright headers into 2016 That took some time...
Happy New Year!
Happy New Year!
Yearly bump It's 2013, baby!
Fix ALL the license headers! Many of our license headers had the wrong date, some of them inconsistent formatting, all of them the wrong address for the FSF (which apparently moved since 2005), and also neither the GNU Blank Public License nor the GNU Highlight Public License actually exist.
Reformat ALL the source! Yes, yes. After stubborningly refusing to switch to a more readable coding style for years, I finally give in. Our old, quite compact, 2-indent style was born from my time with homecomputers, where every whitespace was a waste. Later (and mostly thanks to EgS), I did see the light, e.g. changed from one-letter variable names to useful ones, but still shied away from reformatting the whole source, touching every line, destroying the historical context as shown by svn and git blame. However, since I'm now doing Qt-related programming as my day job, and use a proper (Qt-like) coding style there, it has become increasingly annoying for myself to switch to another style in those long hacking nights working on Quassel, and so I decided to Just Do Itâ„¢. Helps that Git nowadays can ignore whitespace changes when blaming, or diffing, or patching, so this shouldn't be too much of an annoyance for existing patches. Feedback from the community was also positive... So now we use a style that should be pretty close to the Qt Coding Style [1], which not only covers the indentation, but also things like newline-after-function-head. Reformatting was done automagically using uncrustify [2], a script and config file is in scripts/manage/. Please don't run it over the whole codebase again, as there are some false positives and weird formattings that will have to be manually fixed over time. You can use it for reformatting existing patches or MRs, though. [1] http://qt-project.org/wiki/Qt_Coding_Style [2] http://uncrustify.sourceforge.net/
Provide a contextmenu for the ignore list This will not work without updating the core too :/
Decomplexify & reencapsulate
