Wow this looks really good to me. That is a lot of removed code that really did nothing, totally agree with your edits. |

Yeah, exactly! Thank you! |
* QFileDialog returns UNIX paths, even on Windows. This patch converts what QFileDialog returns to the native path format. * Improve const correctness * Avoid imposing file extension on Linux * This patch improves things like unneeded passes by values, missing const qualifiers, ugly copies because of variable reuse and consistency in variable names.

This PR aims at the portions of code that handle picking files from the file systems.
It also improves the overall code style of those portions.
Type of change
Description and Context
This commit fixes [Windows] Duplicate entries in list of recent databases (slashes versus backslashes) #3454. On Windows,
QFileDialog
s return paths with a UNIX-style path separator whereas when a.kdbx
file is double-clicked in Explorer, it is passed to the KeepassXC process with Windows-style path separators. This caused the same file to be registered as two different files by KeepassXC depending on whether it was opened from the context menu or the file explorer.QDir::toNativeSeparators
will adjust the path separator depending on the platform.I saw the comment saying that MacOS needs additional code because the parent window looses focus after the file picker shows up so I just wrapped that code in an
#ifdef
statement so that it doesn't end up in the binary on platforms that don't need it.It just fixes a few variables that weren't marked as
const
(sorry, I'm kind of obsessed with const correctness! 😂)I understand that this may be a bit controversial but that's why I made it as a separate commit so that I can easily discard it in case it's not a welcome change. Extensions on a Linux file system are essentially meaningless and extensions carry no information about a particular file. The OS treats files without extensions just as well as files that have one. Actually, files with no extension are very common on Linux. I saw that, on Linux, picking files for a save operation adds much more code than for the other two platforms: a
QFileDialog
instance was created from scratch instead of using theQFileDialog::getSaveFileName()
convenience method because, according to the comment, the file picker doesn't automatically append the extension. I just felt like it was a bit "hacky" and, more importantly, it tried to forcibly change a behavior that's intended by the OS. Also, I tried to reproduce this thing and, on KDE, I get a checkbox in the file picker saying "Automatically append file extension (.kdbx)" which prevents me from saving files without the intended extension. If I leave it unchecked, I can of course save files without an extension. I'm sure other file pickers from other desktop environment also have this option. If I run thefile
command on a database saved without extension, it has no problem recognizing it; nor does KeepassXC have any kind of issue opening it and working with it. Anyways, my point is that it must be the user's choice whether a file must have an extension or not, instead of being imposed by the program.This commit improves (arguably small) things about the code style, such as const correctness, initialization of enum types with
0
which were flagged by clang-tidy as a pointer initialization with0
for some reason but it's still good practice to use{}
instead of0
(which is technically an implicit conversion fromint
) and thedir
variable which was passed by non-const value just to be reused inside the function as a local. It was kind of an ugly usage, in my opinion, so I madedir
become a const-reference to some string from the outside and used a ternary operator + a reference to achieve the exact same thing as before but without unnecessary copies (it's easier in code than in words 😊).P.S. Some function calls are now formatted differently than before because Clang Format decided to change the formatting, with fewer parameters. I set it to run on Save.
Testing strategy
I tested my changes manually and I ran all the tests (both on Linux and Windows). They all pass on Linux while only one fails on Windows, but so it did before I touched the code so it's unrelated to my changes.
