Async core (EE namespace, documented in docs/articles/async_core.md):
- Add Result<T, E>, Task<T>/TaskSource<T> with continuations and
abandonment, Executor, CancellationToken and SmallUniqueFunction
- Make ThreadPool an Executor with submit() returning a Task; work items
are move-only
- Add Scene::MainThreadExecutor to resume continuations on the UI thread
- Move URI to EE core (eepp/core/uri.hpp) with filesystem helpers
(fromFSPath, getFSPath, getParent); EE::Network::URI remains an alias
- Add System::SHA1 (streaming, modeled on MD5)
- Rename the pack path index to System::PackFileIndex; VirtualFileSystem
is kept as a deprecated alias
eepp-vfs module (src/modules/vfs, documented in docs/articles/vfs.md):
- URI-addressed VirtualFileSystem with pluggable providers: file://,
mem://, res:// (packs) and sftp://
- Async file and directory handles, metadata, space info, capabilities
and IOStream adapters
- Copy/move transfers with progress, cancellation and conflict options
- Change watching through efsw locally, efsw-agent over SSH for sftp://,
and a polling fallback
- VFSDirectoryModel for table views: sorting, name filtering (plain,
glob, regex), type and item-count columns, per-column CSS classes and
lifetime-safe executor delivery
SFTP:
- SSH sessions over libssh2 with ssh_config parsing (Host/Match,
ProxyJump, ProxyCommand), known_hosts verification, ssh-agent, key and
keyboard-interactive authentication, and connection pooling
- Built by default; opt out with --without-vfs-sftp
- Vendor libssh2 1.11.1 with the mbedTLS backend, and add Ed25519 host
and user keys to it through Monocypher 4.0.2 (mbedTLS has no Ed25519)
eefm (src/tools/eefm), a Dolphin-like file manager on eepp-vfs:
- Split panes, each with its own tabs, location bar, history and
filter bar
- Places panel with Places, Remote (saved locations and network mounts)
and Devices (with usage), editable, hideable and reorderable by drag
- Details view with drag and drop, clipboard interoperable with other
file managers, rename, new folder/file, trash (freedesktop, macOS,
Windows) and properties
- Open and Open With from shared-mime-info and desktop entries
- Persisted window, panes, tabs, columns, sort and places
UI and window fixes:
- Keep table column max widths across model updates and give the main
column the remaining width
- Count left margins when laying out push button icon and text
- Add Clipboard::setMimeData, getDataString and getTextMimeTypes
- Report Zip::close/addFile failures and free archives correctly
Tests and tooling:
- Unit tests for the async core, VFS providers, transfers, watching,
the directory model, ssh_config, SFTP (local sshd), the efsw agent
protocol, SHA1 and URI
- Add a VFS benchmark
- Update efsw with efsw-agent and its wire protocol
- Cache effective direction and skip unchanged subtree propagation.
- Add logical alignment, box edges, and relative positioning.
- Mirror layouts and controls while preserving logical node order.
- Apply inherited base direction to UI text and editing.
- Keep logical-edge storage lazy and compact.
- Add regression tests, an isolated WebView demo, and RTL documentation.
- Document RichText bidi limitations and plan paragraph-level support.
CI fixes for the previous commit:
- Windows: announce one BoundsChanged on the window root when the scene
resizes, so UIA raises LayoutInvalidated again. Widgets still do not
report their own bounds changes.
- macOS: collapse identical pending notifications per element within one
update, so one text selection change posts a single
AXSelectedTextChanged. Created/Destroyed keep every occurrence, in order.
- MinGW: link the UIA test harness with -municode and uuid, which fixes
the nightly MinGW build.
Backends:
- Split the AT-SPI backend into a private header plus connection, events,
tree/marshalling and method files. Break the 600-line D-Bus dispatcher
into one handler per interface.
- Split the UIA backend into a private header plus core, element provider
and text range files.
- Share hasState/hasAction in accessibilitybackend.hpp instead of three
per-backend copies.
CI and docs:
- Run test_atspi.py --multi-window on Linux: closing a secondary window
while an AT-SPI client stays connected.
- Add docs/articles/uiaccessibilityarchitecture.md (layer map, files,
invariants, per-backend layout, common tasks, test matrix) and link it
from the articles index and the accessibility guide.
- Add a unit test for the single layout notification on scene resize.
- Reimplement previews using nested UISceneNodes with isolated styles
and resources.
- Preserve live XML/CSS editing, unsaved buffer previews, external file
watching, and project resource loading.
- Use UIApplication for initialization, font resolution, and offscreen
rendering support.
- Enable Breeze by default, add a menu toggle, and replace
--use-app-theme with --disable-app-theme.
- Automatically preserve declared project viewport dimensions, with
an optional override to use the preview split size.
- Support embedded HTML documents inside WebView XML elements.
- Fix fading window shadows and shutdown with visible modal dialogs.
- Update documentation and add regression coverage.
- Rename .agent to .agents and update plan references
- Add an articles index and clearer links to the UI inspector
- Correct the UI introduction’s CSS inheritance guidance and add an example workflow
- Add F11 visual inspection to the hello-world example and enlarge its window to fit
- Remove the old Kitty keyboard plan and TODO.md
