In practice, this appears to be both unnecessary and harmful. Although
the first write happens effectively instantaneously, we can take
several hundred milliseconds to read the second write, and Standalone
can decide we are dead.
This apparently fixes#783 for @dstillman, although I was never able to
reproduce locally.
(I don't see any obvious reason I can't do this. We should probably clean this
up later, not call the endpoint "saveSnapshot", etc. Also, is there a reason it
doesn't follow the snapshot pref by default?)
And fix save button hover height on Windows, which somehow got out of
whack again.
Might need further tweaking on Linux
Need to find a better way to do these buttons...
For new installations, a panel will show for the Z icon with a ">"
button to go to a second panel for the save icon. For existing
installations, a panel will show just for the save icon. In both cases,
the panels are non-auto-hiding but are dismissed if clicked on or when a
new content page is loaded.
There's also a new close button, but it's not enabled currently. Might
be useful for panels with embedded links where an accidental click on
the panel alone shouldn't close the panel (like the Firefox customize
mode wizard).
- When relinking a missing stored file, copy it into the attachment's
storage directory automatically
- Previously, selecting a file outside the attachment subdir would
just result in a missing attachment, since it only looks for stored
files within the subdir
- Display an error message if a Windows shortcut (.lnk) is added via
drag-and-drop or via a file dialog on non-Windows systems, until we
can figure out how to determine the original file
- Shortcuts can cause errors during syncing, for unclear reasons
- Neither nsIFile::copyToFollowingLinks() nor nsIFile::target work for
me to get the original file, even when nsIFile::isSymlink() returns
true
- Windows file dialogs seem to automatically resolve shortcuts, so
it's only an issue there for drag-and-drop
- Disallow hidden files from being selected in relink dialog
- I think some people on Windows with hidden files shown relink the
.zotero* files that show up when they click Locate, which causes
file sync errors. Which brings us to...
- Fix file sync errors for *.lnk and .zotero* files
- Ignore existing .zotero* attachment files, treating the files as
missing instead to encourage relinking
- Strip leading period in getValidFileName() to prevent added files from
being hidden
- This allows hidden files to be added explicitly; they just won't
stay that way in the storage directory
(These things should have tests, but that will have to happen on the 5.0
branch.)
