Remove the Wi-Fi chooser from the menu and put it in a dialog instead.
This frees up the submenu to simply have three items: an rfkill toggle,
a button to show the dialog, and a button to show network settings.
Ideally, we'd autodetect the "needs network" case by user initiation
and automatically show the dialog if needed, but lower-level plumbing
is neccessary, so the menu item to show the dialog is an acceptable
compromise instead.
This is a part of the new system status design, see
https://wiki.gnome.org/GnomeShell/Design/Guidelines/SystemStatus/
for design details.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=704670
Since the network section of the aggregate menu will be shown in the lock
screen, we need to ensure that users can't tweak with network settings or
anything like that.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=704670
Replace NMNetworkMenuItem with NMConnectionItem, based on
NMVPNConnectionItem, and replace NMDevice with NMConnectionSection
and NMConnectionDevice.
Since this rips apart NMDevice, and since wi-fi should not be
connection-based, we'll temporarily remove NMDeviceWireless. We'll
add it back in a later commit, along with the new Wi-Fi dialog.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=704670
Instead, just add them after they're constructed. This allows us to
not have to pass the connections to each device, and prevents issues
with having to enumerate the connections in the middle of construction.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=704670
This is a part of the new system status design, see
https://wiki.gnome.org/GnomeShell/Design/Guidelines/SystemStatus/
for design details.
Note that this does have an interesting side effect of not showing
network connectivity status on wired. This is intentional, and error
states will still be shown in the top bar when they happen.
This also means that if you're connected to both wired and wireless,
even though wired is the default route, we'll first notice the wireless
active connection, and we'll show that in the top bar. New NM API that
will help figuring out the active connection of the default device is
being implemented to stop this from happening.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=704670
The code is complicated by requiring overflow, and in order to incrementally
improve the code to match the designs, remove overflow.
In the new design, we'll have a fixed number of menu items, and Wi-Fi
will be done by a separate design, so we can't be too concerned with
the menu not fitting on the screen.
This is a part of the new system status design, see
https://wiki.gnome.org/GnomeShell/Design/Guidelines/SystemStatus/
for design details.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=704670
According to Dan Williams, if firmware is installed the device
will disappear and reappear, and this is unlikely to change any
time soon. Just make our lives easier by removing the tracking.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=704670
I intended to make a few code cleanups, but I apparently forgot
to hook up _updateAccessPoint. Merge it with _activeApChanged,
which is where the notify::active-access-point signal is actually
hooked up to.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=704670
_updateIcon should not attempt to sync any active connections, as the
icon-changed signal can be emitted in response to something done during
_syncActiveConnection. In the case of VPN, removeActiveConnection would
cause an icon-changed signal to be emitted immediately, but the state
would not be updated, causing us to call removeActiveConnection over and
over.
Explicitly sync all active connections when we know it needs to be done,
and simply make _updateIcon synchronize with the current device's icon.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=703565
The status item will go away soon, so make sure the one-time
fire is given its own function. At the same time, only connect
to the signal when the situation actually matters.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=701954
No class in here has this.carrier as a property. Presumably, this was
meant to be this.device.carrier, but since this code is going to be
rewritten soon anyway, might as well just junk the never-working
code for now.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=701954
This can be more easily achieved by listening for changes to the
device's active-connection property. VPN will still need support to
track active connections, as it does not have an associated
device. But as VPN can track multiple active connections, the names
"set" and "clear" don't quite fit. Rename them to the more-standard
"add" and "remove".
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=701954
As multiple-connections for a Wi-Fi AP won't fit in the new design,
remove submenus right now. Simply make a simple item that connects
to the first known connection for the AP, which should be the common
case.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=698918
This is technically a smidge slower due to the constant bisect insert,
but since this should only happen when we make a Wi-Fi dialog, it's
insignificant.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=700322
Only ACTIVE or ACTIVATING connections are important when deciding
what icon to show, don't fallback on any, possibly invalid or deactivating,
active connection object.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=676285
We put these "access point objects" in "this._networks" and
"this._activeNetwork", so let's rename it. This also makes
the fact that each "access point object" can contain multiple
access points a tiny bit less confusing.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=698918
NM is now a lot smarter about dealing with automatic connections, so just
create an empty connection and pass it to it. The only places where NM
requires connection settings is where we require explicit setup: Bluetooth
DUN, WPA-Enterprise and WWAN/VPN. These cases are already handled by
gnome-control-center, where complex configuration is handled, so remove
the automatic connection management for now and just let NM handle it.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=698918
NMClient recently got more heavyweight, with a property holding supported
connections. As fully initializing a NMObject is a recursive operation
and requires multiple DBus calls, switch to async initalization for NMClient
and NMRemoteSettings.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=683288
LTE-only modems need to be treated as GSM/HSPA modems, as they all are 3GPP
modems and they all need the same kind of configuration (APN, user, password,
PIN...).
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=688144
ModemManager >= 0.7 comes with a new DBus interface. This patch makes the shell
work with the new interface if the modem is detected as being exposed by the new
ModemManager (based on the device.udi string reported by NM).
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=687359.
Some notifications, despite being emitted by shell code, should appear
to be from application or "separable" system components. Do that by
associating them with a notification-daemon policy.
Note that for this to look really good, empathy should rename itself
to Chat.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=685926
syncSectionTitle looks at device list for the section, to understand if
the section should be visible or not, so obviously it needs to see the
new device.
I wonder when this broke.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=692749
NM 0.9.7 is still not released even as a tarball, so fix this to work
with 0.9.6 again for now (although it doesn't do any device name
disambiguation in this case now).
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=691720
If present, InfiniBand devices show up with the ethernet devices (and
the presence of an InfiniBand connection will cause "Wired" to be
renamed to "Ethernet").
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=677150
Remove section titles for ethernet and mobile broadband, and replace
them with device status items that recognize if multiple devices are
installed in the same section, and if so automatically disambiguate.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=677142
Stop pretending that VPN is a NMDevice, and split the useful bits into
a NMConnectionBased interface.
Make each connection have its own switch menu item and handle its own
status, and remove the VPN section title, which is no longer needed.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=682929
The selector for insensitive popup menu items was wrong (a PopupMenuItem is
a ShellGenericContainer, not a StButton). Fixing it showed that previous
:insensitive tracking was manual for a reason: we have many items that are
not reactive, but don't want the insensitive styling (for example those in
the battery menu).
Fix it by adding a new style-class, popup-inactive-menu-item, that is added
to all new PopupMenuItems that are not activatable.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=683988
Since we eventually want to add a system for changing the top panel
contents depending on the current state of the shell, let's use the
"session mode" feature for this, and add a mechanism for updating the
session mode at runtime. Add support for every key besides the two
functional keys, and make all the components update automatically when the
session mode is changed. Add a new lock-screen mode, and make the lock
screen change to this when locked.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=683156
Previously, when toggling a switch on we tried to replicate NM policy and
find a good connection to activate. This is broken in many situations.
Instead, only activate something when we can be sure it's what the user
wants (i.e. when there is only one connection, or when there is none,
and thus connecting will trigger the config dialog)
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=683136
The design has a combined volume-network-power indicator in the lock
screen, which when opened shows a volume slider. Implement it by abstracting
the volume menu into a PopupMenuSection, and by creating three StIcons
bound to the real ones.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=682540
Don't log a warning if an unrecognized device type is seen.
Don't show slave connections in the menu. (Eg, don't show the
individual wired connections making up a bond, since they can't be
used individually.)
Make the icon only reflect the status of connections that are visible
in the menu. (ie, don't show the "connecting" icon when an
unrecognized connection type is connecting, and don't show a
"connected" status if the only active connections are of unrecognized
types.)
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=682364
Track locked status and use it to provide a reduced version of
the panel in the locked screen. Accessibility, input sources and
volume menus are preserved, without the link to the control center.
Network, battery and user menu are reduced to pure indicators,
with no menu.
This is similar to the design but not exactly, because designers
in IRC said that network needs more analysis before exposing, and
because the design didn't account for a11y and IM (so the one menu
metaphor is not really appropriate).
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=619955
Wifi and mobile broadband have signal indicators and are thus
more useful than vpn icons in the panel. Therefore, in the case
we have both wifi/3g and VPN we prefer the former as the "primary
icon" and add a lock next to it.
Behavior when VPN is added to wired or other connections is still
preserved: the wired icon is replaced by vpn.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=672591
Sorting by strength is what the other OSes do by default, and it
provides a better UX (by offering your hotspot and router before
the one from your neighbor).
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=658946
Refactor NMDeviceVPN to be more like the other NMDevices, including
having a valid getSectionTitle() and emitting signals when the
underlying connection changes state.
Use the existing notification infrastructure to hook these signals
to actual notifications (including some code consolidation).
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=676330
Ensure that the UI is updated when a connection changes name or id,
even if it was already known by a device.
Also, use less private properties on NMConnection objects, as they
can become stale and cause problems.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=677097
For most subclasses, this is a direct swap -- a lot of the time, the
constructor was a blank class that override createNotificationIcon,
and called _setSummaryIcon in _init.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=661236
We seem to have a lot of code that does something along the lines of:
if (condition)
actor.show();
else
actor.hide();
ClutterActor already has such a thing for exactly this purpose: the 'visible'
property. Use it instead of the mess above.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=672272
nm_active_connection_get_devices() has a (questionable) special case
for the no devices case (which happens if the DBus object is
destroyed because NM went down): it returns null instead of an empty
array. Handle that instead of crashing.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=673043
Previously the code in _accessPointAdded was iterating over the
the network list to find a good place, and at that time, added both
the network to the list and the item to the menu. When I refactored
to call queueCreateSection, I forgot to add code to insert the
network in the list.
Add it now, using the new Util.insertSorted function.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=666429
By using Main.queueDeferredWork, we can ensure that most of the
menu contents (in particular, the heaviest parts like the list of
wifi networks) are not updated immediately as we receive signals
from NetworkManager. Instead, the menu is rebuilt some time later,
or as soon as the user opens the menu.
This means that it is no longer needed to optimize for the
access-point-added case, replacing a lot of buggy code with a safer
call to _queueCreateSection, which in turn should ensure that the
more menu, if existing, is always at the end and that at most 5 networks
are visible outside it.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=664124
When wifi or wwan are blocked by hardware killswitch, we should not
allow changing the switch (it won't work anyway), and show
"hardware disabled" instead, similar to what we already do in the
bluetooth menu.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=665194
When placing networks in _createSection, we were taking in
consideration that _activeNetwork is always first, by adding 1,
but then kept this offset also for networks following it (normally,
all of them, since _activeNetwork is also the most recently used),
that instead should not be affected by the movement.
This resulted in the menu showing 4 networks + More... instead of
5.

All classes that have at least one other derived class (and thus
benefit from the framework) have been now ported. These includes
NMDevice, SearchProvider, AltTab.SwitcherList, and some other
stuff around.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=664436
Third step in the class framework port, now it's the turn of
MessageTray.Source and MessageTray.Notification, as well as
the various implementations around the shell.

The Lang module in gjs has recently gained a small yet powerful
Class framework, that should help improve the readability of code
when using complex inheritance.
This commit starts porting shell code, by rewriting all classes in
popupMenu.js (and all derived classes) to Lang.Class.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=664436
When changing _findNetwork with _findExistingNetwork, I changed
the return value to avoid searching twice for the access point,
and changed some names. I forgot to update all points where those
names were used.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=663278
Previously, we connected to notify::strength only if there was
already a signal connected, and the AP changed (thus, by induction,
we never connected). As a result, the icon became stale and different
from that shown inside the menu (which is correctly updated).
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=650007
PopupMenu.firstMenuItem returns a PopupMenuItem, not an apObj. We
need to retrive the latter using the _apObj property.
Also, somehow the property from the number of elements in a menu
was changed from .length to .numMenuItems, and this broke the
destruction of the menu upon emptying it.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=659277
Calling nm_access_point_get_ssid() in the handler of the
access-point-removed signal can result in DBus request, which will
then fail because the object was already removed at the server side.
Instead, use a difference function to retrieve the access point
object (the network), that compares directly by object identity.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=651378
js2-mode is no longer developed and we recommend js-mode these days,
so switch the modelines to specify that, and make them consistent
across all files.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=660358
When the active AP disappears, it is possible to receive the
"access-point-removed" signal before the "notify::active-ap" (as
dbus-glib + libnm-glib property notifications are not reliable).
In that case, we would remove the AP from the network object, thus
an attempt to update the UI would create an item for an empty
network.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=658150
Current code is sometime attempting to create menu items for wifi
networks that have no visible AP. I have no idea why this is
happening, but it should fix the symptoms and avoid exceptions.

All the system status menus in the panel offer a
menu item to jump to a relevant part of the
control-center.
This means each status icon has the same, or nearly the
same bit of code to:
- Add a new "action" menu item and listen for its activation.
- Hide the overview if it's showing when the menu item is activated
- Find the relevant control-center panel from its desktop file
- Launch the control-center to the relevant panel
This commit consolidates all those details in a new method,
addSettingsAction. This refactoring reduces code duplication and
slight inconsistencies in the code resulting from that duplication.
It will also make it easier in subsequent commits to hide settings menu
items when the shell is used in the login screen.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=657082
A separator only makes sense if there are items on both
sides of it. There is quite a lot of code written
throughout the shell that manages the process of showing
and hiding separators as the items around those separators
change.
This commit drops all that code in favor of changes to the menu
implementation to dynamically hide or show separators as
appropriate, so the callers don't have to deal with it.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=657082
Wireless and 3g dialog code has moved to gnome-control-center, so
we can stop calling out to nm-applet. Also, we can now enable the
notifications provided by the shell and kill a bit of code about
auth that is not actually needed.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=650244
It is not possible to connect to hidden access points without
knowing the SSID, and it should be done using the control center
panel and the appropriate dialog. At the same time, this should
fix some warnings from libnm-glib and dbus-glib.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=646454
Since almost all of the callers of shell_app_activate were using the
default workspace (by passing -1), remove that parameter.
Add a new shell_app_activate_full() API which takes a workspace as
well as a timestamp; previously we might have been ignoring event
timestamps from elsewhere.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=648149
This dramatically thins down and sanitizes the application code.
The ShellAppSystem changes in a number of ways:
* Preferences are special cased more explicitly; they aren't apps,
they're shortcuts for an app), and we don't have many of them, so
don't need e.g. the optimizations in ShellAppSystem for searching.
* get_app() changes to lookup_app() and returns null if an app isn't
found. The semantics where it tried to find the .desktop file
if we didn't know about it were just broken; I am pretty sure no
caller needs this, and if they do we'll fix them.
* ShellAppSystem maintains two indexes on apps (by desktop file id
and by GMenuTreeEntry), but is no longer in the business of
dealing with GMenuTree as far as hierarchy and categories go. That
is moved up into js/ui/appDisplay.js. Actually, it flattens both
apps and settings.
Also, ShellWindowTracker is now the sole reference-owner for
window-backed apps. We still do the weird "window:0x1234beef" id
for these apps, but a reference is not stored in ShellAppSystem.
The js/ui/appDisplay.js code is rewritten, and sucks a lot less.
Variable names are clearer:
_apps -> _appIcons
_filterApp -> _visibleApps
_filters -> _categoryBox
Similarly for function names. We no longer call (for every app) a
recursive lookup in GMenuTree to see if it's in a particular section
on every category switch; it's all cached.
NOTE - this intentionally reverts the incremental loading code from
commit 7813c5b93f. It's fast enough
here without that.

When one of the networks in the main menu is removed and we have

Moves and converts NMDeviceTitleMenuItem from network.js into
PopupSwitchMenuItem, so that it can show both a switch and a

_createNetworkItem was always appending access point at the end of
the menu when their position was < 5 (NUM_VISIBLE_NETWORKS), ignoring
the presence or absence of _overflowItem, which thus ended in the
middle of the network list. Fix that.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=652313
If we have more than 5 (which can happen with VPN connections), place
them into a More... submenu, which also becomes scrollable if needed.
To protect from race conditions and ordering issues while reading

Some users are confused when their devices are not shown in the
network menu, even if they configured them manually. Mark their presence
by showing them in the menu, even if they cannot be otherwise
interacted with.
Also add a status string for deactivating devices (none currently,
soon will appear in NetworkManager).
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=646946
All WPA APs were getting set as WPA2 due to the check for privacy;
WPA/WPA2 APs *must* set the Privacy bit according to the standard,
so we'd never end up in the case for NMAccessPointSecurity.WPA.
Fix that, and also add flags for WPA[2] Enterprise which we'll
use a bit later for the first-time connect case for 802.1x enabled
access points.
Instead of rolling our own code, use new libnm-glib functions to do
the same thing. Requires libnm-glib as of
779215c742bbe29a2c66202ec7e2e6d43edeb8ff (which will be part of 0.9).
Fixes https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=648648
Adds a function that compares wireless networks and keeps them sorted
at all times. Order is: first already configured connections, then
first secure networks, then alphabtic. Also, the appearance of a new access
point no longer causes the whole menu to be rebuilt (but it still linear
searches for the position, I guess that could be skipped), which caused
the addition of more code for tracking the active access point.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=646580
The IP_CHECK and SECONDARIES states should be considered part of the
"connecting..." phase.
DEACTIVATING should be its own stage, but that would break string
freeze, so we just treat it like DISCONNECTED for now.
UNMANAGED needs to be treated differently in 3.2, but it is too late
to fix it for 3.0.1.

When more than one device exists, we need to reset the section title's
device to null, and in that case we must show nothing (neither the switch
nor the label, but an empty label is OK anyway). Also, we need to
update the device statusItem immediately when constructing it, as we
may not get any state-changed.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=646074
NMDeviceModem._createSection was not checking whether it should have
shown the connection list, resulting in status item shown even if
the device was in an invalid state.
Also, fix a logic error when creating the operatorItem and fix overriding
_clearSection protected method.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=646395
NMApplet connects to each NMDevice's state-changed signal and stores
the signal handler id on the NMDevice itself. However, it was using
the same name as NMDevice itself was using to store the handler ID for
the underlying GObject's state-changed signal, thus overwriting it,
and resulting in *neither* signal handler getting removed if the
device went away. (This probably isn't a problem, since the device is
going away, but it causes a warning.)
Also, at least for WWAN devices, the device state changes to UNMANAGED
immediately before disappearing, but getStatusLabel() wasn't handling
that case and printed a warning instead. Fix that.

If you restart NetworkManager, then the list of active connections
is emptied, then comes back with the same GObjects in it. If the
