QOF  0.8.7
Todo List
Global _QofBook::backend
allow book to lookup session and then backend.
Global _QofBook::book_open
shouldn't this be replaced by the instance editlevel ?
Global _QofBook::shutting_down
shouldn't shutting_down be replaced by instance->do_free?
Module BookMerge
Prior to libqof2 rationalise internal variable names.
Global build_kvp_table (gpointer builder, gint col_num, gchar **strings, gchar **columnNames)
improve error checking support in case the SQLite data is tweaked manually.
Module Date
Add support for customised handlers for added formats.
Global kvp_value_get_gint64 (const KvpValue *value)
kvp_value_get_ functions need to set QofError so that users can check that a NULL or zero value is actually a real value and not an error result.
Global KvpValueType
In the long run, this could be synchronised with the core QOF types, which in turn may or may not be synced to the GValue types in GLib. The QOF types currently unsupported are KVP_TYPE_GLIST and KVP_TYPE_BINARY.
Global MAP_ENUM_TYPE
enum is an attempt to make enumerator values descriptive in the maps and QSF (possibly). Not working yet.
Global MAX_DATE_BUFFER
rationalise with MAX_DATE_LENGTH
Global qof_date_format_add (const gchar *str, QofDateFormat *identifier)
Move to QofDate and qofgmtime_r
Global qof_session_save (QofSession *session, QofPercentageFunc percentage_func)
check the access_method too, not in scope here, yet.
Global qof_time_get_current (void)
use to replace qof_time_get_current_start
Global qof_time_get_current_start (void)
move to a private header; used by qofdate.c and test-date.c
Global qof_time_last_mday (QofTime *ts)
remove GDate limits.
Global qof_time_set_day_end (QofTime *time)
remove GDate limits.
Global qof_time_set_day_middle (QofTime *t)
remove GDate limits.
Global qof_time_set_day_start (QofTime *time)
remove GDate limits.
Global qof_time_to_dmy (QofTime *t, guint8 *day, guint8 *month, guint16 *year)
Remove GDate limits and use QofDate.
Global QofDate

check - years work like this, days don't!! Only qd_year retains a negative value once set. Adding one year to a negative QofDate causes the QofDate to be set to one year further into the past. This follows the same pattern as typical BC dates: the 1st of May 501BC is further into the past than the 5th of May 500BC.

Reorganise the qof_time_* functions to reflect this statement. qof_time_set_day_end should be qof_date_set_day_end and the various qof_date_time functions need to be reviewed.

Module QSF
  • Adding more map support, some parts of the map are still not coded. equals, variables and the conditional logic may not be up to the task of the datebook repetition calculations.
Global qsf_map_prepare_list (GList **maps)
Automate this once map support is stable
Class QsfNodeIterate
resolve the two callbacks in ::qsf_node_iterate into one.
Global QsfValidCB )(xmlNodePtr, xmlNsPtr, QsfValidator *)
The need for separate metadata means a separate callback typedef is needed for the validator, but this should be fixed to only need one.
Global record_foreach (gpointer builder, gint col_num, gchar **strings, gchar **columnNames)
need a KVP version to load data into the slots
Global safe_strcmp (const gchar *da, const gchar *db)
replace with g_strcmp0 from glib 2.16
Global string_to_kvp_value (const gchar *content, KvpValueType type)
reconcile the duplication with the QSF (and GDA) version
File test-engine-stuff.c
replace with g_test routines from 2.16
