This makes copying such types much cheaper and will allow us to
intern common struct types in the future too. This further
drops the sample cost for langtype.rs from ~6.6% down to 4.0%.
We are now also able to share/intern common struct types.
Before:
```
Time (mean ± σ): 1.073 s ± 0.021 s [User: 0.759 s, System: 0.215 s]
Range (min … max): 1.034 s … 1.105 s 10 runs
allocations: 3074261
```
After:
```
Time (mean ± σ): 1.034 s ± 0.026 s [User: 0.733 s, System: 0.201 s]
Range (min … max): 1.000 s … 1.078 s 10 runs
allocations: 2917476
```
This allows us to cheaply copy the langtype::Type values which
contain such a type. The runtime impact is small and barely noticable
but a sampling profiler shows a clear reduction in samples pointing
at langtype.rs, roughly reducing that from ~8.6% inclusive cost
down to 6.6% inclusive cost.
Furthermore, this allows us to share/intern common types.
Before:
```
Benchmark 1: ./target/release/slint-viewer ../slint-perf/app.slint
Time (mean ± σ): 1.089 s ± 0.026 s [User: 0.771 s, System: 0.216 s]
Range (min … max): 1.046 s … 1.130 s 10 runs
allocations: 3152149
```
After:
```
Time (mean ± σ): 1.073 s ± 0.021 s [User: 0.759 s, System: 0.215 s]
Range (min … max): 1.034 s … 1.105 s 10 runs
allocations: 3074261
```
This removes a lot of allocations and speeds up the compiler step
a bit. Sadly, this patch is very invasive as it touches a lot of
files. That said, each individual hunk is pretty trivial.
For a non-trivial real-world example, the impact is significant,
we get rid of ~29% of all allocations and improve the runtime by
about 4.8% (measured until the viewer loop would start).

We need to skip the generation of the local property so it directly
forward to the alias in the public property
Fixes#5855
ChangeLog: Fixed generated getter and setter of alias properties in globals
A `Rectangle { clip: true; }` will generate an intermediate `Clip` rectangle, which
certainly has no debug info.
The check whether debug info is present or not should not be done on a per-element
level but it can be done on the level of the compilation unit.
Preparation for multi-components
Note that this had to rename one instance of TextStyle because it
conflicts with the struct of the same name used in the FontSettings
in the style. This wasn't a problem before because it shares some
property in common, and the the order of processing of component has
changed leading to the other one being generated.
(But that is a wider bug in the compiler outside of the scope of this
refactoring)
There currently still can only be one because the passes expect that,
but now the LLR and generator should be ready to accept multiple public
component later
The `SLINT_EMIT_DEBUG_INFO` environment variable needs to be set for Rust and C++ builds. For the interpreter it's always enabled, since ... we have it.
Updated the version from 1.1 to 1.2
Renamed the header to "Slint Royalty-free Desktop, Mobile, and Web Applications License"
Added definition of "Mobile Application" and grant of right
Moved "Limitations" to 3rd section and "License Conditions - Attributions" to 2nd section
Added flexibility to choose between showing "MadeWithSlint" as a dialog/splash screen or on a public webpage
Moved the para on copyright notices to section under "Limitations"
This changes the component containers away from using a "MAGIC" index in the
placeholder dynamic item tree node it creates. These are hard to
integrate across sub-components.
Use index numbers right after the index numbers used by repeaters and
"extend" the repeater offset by the number of component containers in
the sub-component. This way we can piggy-back on the forwarding of
repeaters.
This has one annoying side-effect: We do have indices in our item tree
that are out of range for a repeater. But I think that is acceptable
considering that we never materialize that array anyway.
Parents surch as Opacity, Clip, and co, used to steal the x and y
property of their children, making the property not what they ought to
be.
Now that we refactored recently the code so that geometry need not to be
always linked to a property of the same name, we can dissociate the x
and y property of these generated elements and their content so that the
actual "x" property of the former elementstay some value, despite its
relative item property is now 0.
Had to change a bit of code that was still assuming a literal "height"
or "width" or "y" or "x" property that no longer worked when the
geometry is dissociated from its property
Fix#1072
If one declare a `property <int> foo;` in Slint, it will be private by
default, and the getter/setter won't be generated, and it may be
confusing as to why
With this change, it still generate private getter and setter so this
gives a better hint to the developer what the problem is.
Replaces #2170
These are two different concept, and it is confusing to keep them in the
same enum
We want to support component without any base element, and Void is
already used for global component, so do this refactoring before
Implement basic accessibility (a11y) support, using the Qt backend.
_This should get us started, but accessibility support is an additional way to interact with UIs that is very different from the "graphical way" most users will interact with the UI. No single PR will "make a toolkit accessibility", this needs to be an ongoing effort!_
Parts of this PR:
* Add functions to access a11y-related properties to Component
* Add helper functions to Item struct
* Handle accessible- properties in the compiler
* Add documentation, add description, enforce some basic rules
* Make the Text element accessible by default
* Don't optimize away accessibility property in the LLR
* Ensure that accessibility property are marked as used
* Add some accessibility properties to the native style widgets
* Support for bool and integer `accessible` properties
* Implement basic support for accessibility
* Make basic widgets accessible by default
* Make slider focus-able and interactable with keyboard
* Tell a11y layer about value changes
* Generate QAccessible constants using bindgen
* Don't expose the `accessible` properties when using the MCU backend: There is no backend to make use of them
* Handle focus change based on keyboard focus of the window
* Report accessible widgets at correct positions
* Allow for (virtual) focus delegation at the a11y level
* Calculate value step size dynamically
* Make sure to not send notifications to a11y backend about dead objects
