2014-02-18Fix race condition on shutdownMathias Gumz1-380/+91
This commit fixes primarily a race condition that occurs when xinit(1) shuts down: by not acting properly fluxbox gets caught in an infinite loop. It caused bug #1100. xinit(1) sends a SIGHUP signal to all processes. fluxbox tries to shutdown itself properly by shutting down workspaces and screens. While doing that, the Xserver might be gone already. Additionally, fluxbox used to restart() itself on SIGHUP, which is clearly not the right thing to do when xinit(1) is about to end the session. So, fluxbox does this: * handling SIGHUP now shuts down fluxbox without clearing workspaces and screens. * A 2 second alarm() is triggered in Fluxbox::shutdown() as a last resort * XSetIOErrorHandler() is used to recognize the disconnect from the xserver. * SIGUSR1 is for restarting fluxbox, SIGUSR2 for reloading the config * FbTk/SignalHandler.cc/hh is gone; this unused abstraction served currently no real purpose. Signal handling is now done in main.cc * Unrelated to the issue itself src/main.cc was trimmed down quite a bit and the code (responsible for handling the command line interface) was moved to src/cli*

2013-06-29fix detection of $HOME folderMathias Gumz1-7/+4
usually $HOME is set when fluxbox runs. in some rare scenarios (eg., fuzzying binaries to detect bugs) one could launch fluxbox by using 'env -i' and thus eliminating $HOME from the environment. to prevent crashes fluxbox uses now 'getpwuid()' when $HOME is not set to detect the home folder.
2013-05-26build-sys: use AC_USE_SYSTEM_EXTENSIONSSami Kerola1-5/+0
The earlier _GNU_SOURCE definitions possibly did not take effect everywhere where it was intended.
2013-05-26build-sys: include config.h to all files using automakeSami Kerola1-4/+0
Do not try to be too smart which compilations need config.h, as most of them will simply because of the config.h has information about system capabilities.
2013-02-14Updates copyright date information in some binariesMathias Gumz1-1/+1
2013-01-10Optional removal of SystemTray toolMathias Gumz1-0/+6
Added the option to remove the SystemTray tool completely from fluxbox.
2012-12-12Fix build regression: enable XRANDR support by defaultMathias Gumz1-0/+9
The changes made in b178bed60b5bd8b2c9ed0cbc67fd729ff3820589 used the wrong variable to set the default state of '--enable-randr' in configure.in, that is fixed now. I also removed '--enable-randr12': If support for the Xrandr-extension is available at compile time we set HAVE_RANDR; if there is also support for Xrandr-1.2 (or higher), we also set HAVE_RANDR1_2 automatically. Other changes: * cleaned out public interface of 'class Fluxbox' * added 'RANDR' to output of 'fluxbox -info'
2012-12-05Simplified 'configure' / build systemMathias Gumz1-3/+3
* reduced duplicated auto-code * renamed '--enable-newwmspec' to '--enable-ewmh' * don't compile 'Slit'-code when '--disable-slit' * use AS_IF() in configure.in * use AS_HELP_STRING() instead of obsolete AC_HELP_STRING in configure.in * removed redundant calls to 'imlib2-config' to fill in $IMLIB2_CFLAGS and $IMLIB2_LIBS, AC_PATH_GENERIC() does that out of the box already

2011-09-10sync the copied config files to disk before continuingMathias Gumz1-0/+11
otherwise a race condition might appear between copying the default config files to .fluxbox/ and executing 'fluxbox-update_configs'. under macosx this lead to 'fluxbox hangs'.

2010-10-13bugfix: std::string() does not like NULL on constructionMathias Gumz1-6/+19
not having DISPLAY set (eg: on a headless system) caused fluxbox to crash.
2010-09-20use 'system()' to run 'fluxbox-update_configs'Mathias Gumz1-3/+1
by using FbCommands::ExecureCmd() we run 'fluxbox-update_configs' in the bacground while booting a new fluxbox instance already. 'system()' waits until 'fluxbox-update_configs' is done and then gives the control back to fluxbox.
2010-09-18changed the way we create the '~/.fluxbox' directory to avoid race conditionsMathias Gumz1-9/+115
before bringing up the first instance of Fluxbox we prepare the directory and the files it needs. if the config version of exiting files is lower than what we expect, we upgrade the config files. after that we bring up Fluxbox. the old way was problematic because setupConfigFiles() calls 'fluxbox-update_configs' which does its job in the background while fluxbox continues to boot. 'fluxbox-update_configs' sends a USR2 signal to the booting fluxbox (it might even be finished, no one knows) which triggers 'load_rc()' which triggered 'setupConfigFiles()' again which might trigger 'fluxbox-update_configs' again (on my machine 'fluxbox-update_configs' was called 3 times and left a pretty crippled 'keys' file when it was done). bootstrapping before bringing up fluxbox resolves the issue. as a bonus: no need to send USR2 to fluxbox to reload the config file because fluxbox has not even tried to read it yet.

2010-09-17bugfix: avoid naive use of 'putenv' by providing 'FbTk::App::setenv()'Mathias Gumz1-2/+1
to quote from 'man putenv': The string pointed to by string becomes part of the environment, so altering the string changes the environment. so, using putenv like { std::string foo("FOO=bar"); putenv(foo.c_str()); } is wrong and leads to a potentially corrupted environment. valgrind complaint correctly. FbTk::App seems to be the appropriate place to hold '::seten()' because it alters the environment of the application.
2010-09-17missing initializationsMathias Gumz1-0/+1
'valgrind' reported a lot of code branches based upon uninitialized variables. some are not identified yet.
