The overall goal is to allow clients to restart operations in
situations where that is the response recommended by the underlying
Xapian library.
Amended-by: db, added above explanation

This is the result of running
$ uncrustify --replace --config ../devel/uncrustify.cfg *.c *.h *.cc
in the lib directory

Falling out of the catch meant the error return was lost
|
|
Also clarify API in error case.

static_cast is a bit tricky to understand and error prone, so add a
second pointer to (potentially the same) Xapian database object that
we know has the right subclass.
|
|
The plan is to change the underlying representation.

The error message and name were confusing when called in some "read
only" context.

C99 stdbool turned 18 this year. There really is no reason to use our
own, except in the library interface for backward
compatibility. Convert the lib internally to stdbool.

Without this change, the following code fails
notmuch_directory_set_mtime(dir, 12345);
assert(notmuch_directory_get_mtime(dir) == 12345);

Many of the external links found in the notmuch source can be resolved
using https instead of http. This changeset addresses as many as i
could find, without touching the e-mail corpus or expected outputs
found in tests.

As mentioned in acd66cdec075312944e527febd46382e54d99367 we don't have
an interface to delete directory documents, and they're left behind. Add
the interface.

This is not supposed to change any functionality from an end user
point of view. Note that it will eliminate some output to stderr. The
query debugging output is left as is; it doesn't really fit with the
current primitive logging model. The remaining "bad" fprintf will need
an internal API change.

Previously, there was no protection against a caller invoking an
operation on an old database version that would effectively corrupt
the database by treating it like a newer version.
According to notmuch.h, any caller that opens the database in
read/write mode is supposed to check if the database needs upgrading
and perform an upgrade if it does. This would protect against this,
but nobody (even the CLI) actually does this.
However, with features, it's easy to protect against incompatible
operations on a fine-grained basis. This lightweight change allows
callers to safely operate on old database versions, while preventing
specific operations that would corrupt the database with an
informative error message.
|
|
Now _notmuch_database_find_directory_id takes a flags argument, which
it passes through to _notmuch_directory_create and can indicate if the
directory does not exist. Again, callers have been updated, but
retain their original behavior.
|
|
Previously this function would create directory documents if they
didn't exist. As a result, it could only be used on writable
databases. This adds an argument to make creation optional and to
make this function work on read-only databases. We use a flag
argument to avoid a bare boolean and to permit future expansion.
Both callers have been updated, but currently retain the old behavior.
We'll take advantage of the new argument in the following patches.

Replace _notmuch_convert_tags with this and simplify
_create_filenames_for_terms_with_prefix. This will also come in handy
shortly to get the message file name list.
|
|
This replaces the guts of the filename list and tag list, making those
interfaces simple iterators over the generic string list. The
directory, message filename, and tags-related code now build generic
string lists and then wraps them in specific iterators. The real wins
come in later patches, when we use these for even more generic
functionality.
As a nice side-effect, this also eliminates the annoying dependency on
GList in the tag list.
|
|
This augments the existing notmuch_message_get_filename by allowing
the caller access to all filenames in the case of multiple files for a
single message.
To support this, we split the iterator (notmuch_filenames_t) away from
the list storage (notmuch_filename_list_t) where previously these were
a single object (notmuch_filenames_t). Then, whenever the user asks
for a file or filename, the message object lazily creates a complete
notmuch_filename_list_t and then:
For notmuch_message_get_filename, returns the first filename
in the list.
For notmuch_message_get_filenames, creates and returns a new
iterator for the filename list.
|

The new implementation is simply a talloc-based list of strings. The
former support (a list of database terms with a common prefix) is
implemented by simply pre-iterating over the terms and populating the
list. This should provide no performance disadvantage as callers of
thigns like notmuch_directory_get_child_files are very likely to
always iterate over all filenames anyway.
This new implementation of notmuch_filenames_t is in preparation for
adding API to query all of the filenames for a single message.
|
|
Most files including this already include database-private.h which
includes xapian.h already.
|
|
These various functions and data are all used only locally, so should
be marked static. Ensuring we get these right will avoid us accidentally
leaking unintended symbols through the library interface.

Previously we were using Xapian's add_document to allocate document ID
values for notmuch_message_t objects. This had the drawback of adding
a partially constructed mail document to the database. If notmuch was
subsequently interrupted before fully populating this document, then
later runs would be quite confused when seeing the partial documents.
There are reports from the wild of people hitting internal errors of
the form "Message ... has no thread ID" for example, (which is
currently an unrecoverable error).
We fix this by manually allocating document IDs without adding
documents. With this change, we never call Xapian's add_document
method, but only replace_document with either the current document ID
of a message or a new one that we have allocated.
|
|
We rename 'has_more' to 'valid' so that it can function whether
iterating in a forward or reverse direction. We also rename
'advance' to 'move_to_next' to setup parallel naming with
the proposed functions 'move_to_first', 'move_to_last', and
'move_to_previous'.
|

The WDF is the "within-document frequency" value for a particular
term. It's intended to provide an indication of how frequent a term is
within a document, (for use in computing relevance). Xapian's term
generator already computes WDF values when we use that, (which we do
for indexing all mail content).
We don't use the term generator when adding single terms for things
that don't actually appear in the mail document, (such as tags, the
filename, etc.). In this case, the WDF value for these terms doesn't
matter much.
But Xapian's flint backend can be more efficient with changes to terms
that don't affect the document "length". So there's a performance
advantage for manipulating tags (with the flint backend) if the WDF of
these terms is 0.

Previously, many checks were deep in the library just before a cast
operation. These have now been replaced with internal errors and new
checks have instead been added at the beginning of all top-levelentry
points requiring a read-write database.
The new checks now also use a single function for checking and
printing the error message. This will give us a convenient location to
extend the check, (such as based on database version as well).
|
|
This will be convenient to avoid some special-casing in higher-level
code.
|
|
This new directory ojbect provides all the infrastructure needed to
detect when files or directories are deleted or renamed. There's still
code needed on top of this (within "notmuch new") to actually do that
detection.
