* macOS: make creating maintenance tool alias optionalArttu Tarkiainen2022-06-031-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently the installer will create an alias file for maintenance tool with the name defaulting to the file name of maintenance tool, if the name is not explicitly declared in the installer's configuration file. This can cause issues with installers that use the same maintenance tool filename, as the alias would be overwritten on each install, and the default name does not tell which installation the alias is associated with. Make it so that the alias is only created if installer config specifies a name for the alias.

Windows 32bit registry keys on 64bit Windows and 64bit application can be accessed using QSettings::Registry32Format. Window 64bit registry keys on 64bit windows and 32bit application can be accessed using QSettings::Registy64Format. If no format is set, QSettings::NativeFormat is used.

* Add support for parallel extraction of component archivesArttu Tarkiainen2022-04-213-0/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Introduce ConcurrentOperationRunner class used for running installer operations concurrently in the global thread pool. Add execution groups for operations; Unpack operations are run concurrently for all components requesting installation, operations belonging to Install group are run sequentially for sorted components one at a time as before. From the default registered operations the Extract op is moved to Unpack group. Move the previously on-the-fly backup steps of Extract operation to the ExtractArchiveOperation::backup(), so that backups are done before any archives are extracted, and that we know if any of the archives requires administrator privileges to unpack. Reparent QInstaller::Error to QException to support throwing and catching exceptions across thread boundaries. Use RAII for the server-side objects of the classes supporting the remote client-server protocol of installer framework. The concurrent extraction revealed that it was still possible that the local socket was disconnected and thus the RemoteServer- Connection thread finished before receiving and processing the final "Destroy" command packet, leaking the dynamically allocated objects.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add new optional "moveChildren" attribute to <TreeName> element. Children of components declaring "moveChildren=true" attribute are calculated a value for an automatic tree name element. Multiple components in a single tree branch can declare a tree name, the order which the relocation happens is from leaf components to root components. Components may be moved under another tree name target. Components may be moved to an existing identifier part that does not have a component, for example in the following repository structure: rootA.childA rootB rootB.childB the "rootB" component can legally declare a "rootA" tree name. The tree names of components become static after installed. If a repository declares a new tree name for a component that is installed, it is only applied after updating in maintenance tool. Child components, which have an automatic tree name, are moved if the parent component is updated with a new tree name, however.

Usage of libarchive brings in support for additional archive formats (in addition to 7z) with the installer framework, like zip and tar, with several available compression methods like gzip, bzip2 and xz. libarchive will coexist as a supported archive format handler with the LZMA SDK currently used in the framework, which will continue to be used for handling the 7-Zip file format. This change introduces classes for handling archive operations using both libraries, removes most calls to the old Lib7z facade and migrates the code base to use the new handling methods.
