This provides internal features on _ASAsyncTransaction and ASDisplayNode to facilitate
implementing public API that allows clients to choose if they would prefer to block
on the completion of unfinished rendering, rather than allow a placeholder state to
become visible.
The internal features are:
-[_ASAsyncTransaction waitUntilComplete]
-[ASDisplayNode recursivelyEnsureDisplay]
Also provided are two such implementations:
-[ASCellNode setNeverShowPlaceholders:], which integrates with both Tables and Collections
-[ASViewController setNeverShowPlaceholders:], which should work with Nav and Tab controllers.
Lastly, on ASDisplayNode, a new property .shouldBypassEnsureDisplay allows individual node types
to exempt themselves from blocking the main thread on their display.
By implementing the feature at the ASCellNode level rather than ASTableView & ASCollectionView,
developers can retain fine-grained control on display characteristics. For example, certain
cell types may be appropriate to display to the user with placeholders, whereas others may not.
Follow-up work will include unit tests, revisiting names, and the header locations of definitions.
Eases support for nesting horizontally scrolling elements within a vertical scroller.
Further changes will improve the API, and optimize handling of the nested working ranges.
- In -layoutSubviews of table and collection views, detect changes that cause a different constrained size for nodes, and trigger relayout immediately.
- Orientation change can be handled by this solution. So, no need to observe to its events.
- Update Kittens example to support iPad (easier to catch bugs on these devices) and add a title to navigation bar (looks a bit nicer).
ASNetworkImageNode defers to ASImageNode to return its calculatedSize. ASImageNode returns the size of its image. There is a good chance that ASNetworkImageNode hasn't downloaded its image yet when calculatedSize is called, so it returns a size of CGSizeZero.
On top of that, it is possible that the size of the image is not actually the size that we wish to display in our node.
I've added an "expectedImageSize" property that can be used to determine the calculatedSize of an ASNetworkImageNode.
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.
