When changing a filter value delay the application of the new value on
the table for a couple of milliseconds. This makes the filter process
much smoother for fast typing users working on large tables.
See issue #415.
This is a proof-of-concept or even a basic first implementation of a new
feature I'd like to have in DB4S which at the moment I call display
formats.
The idea here is to allow the user to change the data in the Browse Data
tab on a per column basis before displaying it. This means even though
the data is stored in format X in the database it can be shown in format
Y in the browser. This should be useful in cases where the original
format X is hard to read or just not useful in a particular case.
This first implementation allows the user to right click on the header
of a column and open a new dialog for setting the display format which
offers a (limited) list of pre-defined formats. The selected format is
then integrated into the SELECT statement which is sent to SQLite.
While it works, this draft implementation lacks a number of features.
Here are the most prominent ones I'm currently aware of:
* Data not editable (or only via the Edit Dialog) because it isn't
transformed back yet.
* More display formats needed; maybe customizable ones, too.
* No indication in the UI for which columns a format has been set.
* Could _maybe_ be integrated into the import/export etc. for optional
use.
Instead of a separate CMakeLists.txt for the tests, make them built
together with the rest of the main project. This behaviour is off
by default, and can be enabled using ENABLE_TESTING.
Furthermore, the testing facilities of cmake are now used, so ctest
(invoked by `make test`) knows about the sqlb-unittests. Thus, adapt
the Travis build steps, building the main sources and executing the
tests twice, one for sqlite and one for sqlcipher.
Add an option to remember the location of the last opened or saved file
and use it as the default location for the next file dialog because
always going back to the default location set in the preferences dialog
can be a real hastle.
See issues #224, #276 and #281.
This is a first rough implementation of QScintilla support as SQL text
editor.
It should work mostly and build fine with qmake as well as cmake. The
new code supports all the features of the old one plus adding a few
subtle improvements. The main point of this, however, is reducing the
code we have to maintain and making it easier to add new features to the
editor.
Fix the sqlcipher build option in the qmake project to actually enable
the SQLCipher support.
Add a new dialog called CipherDialog which is used to ask the user for
the password and other encryption details instead of using standard Qt
input dialogs.
Add some basic initial support for SQLCipher. Note that this is more of
a POC than a final implementation.
This commit adds an option called 'sqlcipher' to the cmake and qmake
projects which - when enabled - replaces the default SQLite3 include and
library files by their SQLCipher counter-parts. Especially on MacOS X
there might be some more work required in finding the correct include
paths. The SQLCipher library supports unencrypted databases, too, so
even if the option is enabled the program behaves like before. You can
see the difference, though, in the About Dialog where the SQLite version
string will say 'SQLCipher version xy'.
When the sqlcipher option is enabled and you try to open a file which is
neither a project file nor a normal SQLite3 database it is assumed now
that the file is an encypted database. There is no way to tell between
an invalid file and an encypted file, so in both cases a password dialog
pops up. When the correct password and page size are entered the file is
opened and can be edited like any other database before.
Creating encrypted databases isn't supported yet. So for testing you
need to fall back to the sqlcipher command line tool.
