Introduced ASIndexPath for efficient handling of index paths in C++ vectors,
while maintaining the readability of ".section" and ".row" instead of
".first" and ".second" inside of complicated business logic.
Confirmed that the working range calls are firing appropriately during
ASTableViewStressTest, including the deallocation of the rich text placeholders
provided by ASTextNode.
This diff resolves all known consistency issues with ASTableView and ASCollectionView.
It includes significantly more aggressive thrash-testing in ASTableViewStressTest,
which now passes on a variety of device and simulator configurations. It also updates
the unit tests run on every commit to ensure any regression is caught quickly.
A few of the salient changes in this diff:
- ASTableView now uses Rene's ASCollectionViewLayoutController, and actually uses a
UICollectionViewFlowLayout without any UICollectionView. This resolves an issue where
ASFlowLayoutController was generating slightly out-of-bounds indicies when programmatically
scrolling past the end of the table content. Because the custom implementation is likely
faster, I will revisit this later with profiling and possibly returning to the custom impl.
- There is now a second copy of the _nodes array maintained by ASDataController. It shares
the same node instances, but this does add some overhead to manipulating the arrays. I've
filed a task to follow up with optimization, as there are several great opportunities to
make it faster. However, I don't believe the overhead is a significant issue, and it does
guarantee correctness in even the toughest app usage scenarios.
- ASDataController no longer supports calling its delegate /before/ edit operations. No
other class was relying on this behavior, and it would be unusual for an app developer to
use ASDataController directly. However, it is possible that someone with a custom view
that integrates with ASDataController and ASRangeController could be affected by this.
- Further cleanup of organization, naming, additional comments, reduced code length
wherever possible. Overall, significantly more accessible to a new reader.
- ASLayoutable requires mutable properties that are used when attached to a stack layout.
- Thus, ASLayoutable objects (including ASDisplayNode) can be injected into stack layout directly.
- ASStackLayoutNodeChild no longer needed.
- Tests and Kitten sample updated.
- Both ASDisplayNode and ASLayoutNode conforms to this protocol.
- ASDisplayNode can be embeded directly into layout graph.
- Eliminate ASCompositeNode.
- Fix ASStaticSizeDisplayNode not recpect min constrained size.
- Updated tests.
- ASRelativeSize and ASRelativeSizeRange are used only by ASStaticLayoutNode. They are declared in a standalone header.
- ASDimension contains a minimal set of new size types required to use the common layouts. Thus minimize the learning curve.
- Introduce ASLayoutNode and its subclasses.
- ASDisplayNode measures its ASLayoutNode and cache the result (ASLayout). Calculated size and position of each subnode can be retrieved from the calculated layout.
- Custom nodes need to override -layoutNodeThatFits:(CGSize) instead of -calculateSizeThatFits:(CGSize).
- Custom nodes do not need to layout its subnodes (in -layout:) anymore. ASDisplayNode can handle the job most of the time, by walking through its layout tree.
- ASCompositeNode is used to embed (display) subnodes to a node's layout. That way, each subnode will also be measured while the parent node is measuring. And the parent node knows where its subnodes are within its layout.
- The code is forked from LayoutComponents in ComponentKit.
- Public interfaces are modified to be strictly Objective-C. As a result, users are not forced to switch to Objective-C++, the linker can happily compile and Swift fans can continue using the mighty ASDK.
