gtk_widget_show_all() has been removed, widgets are visible by default now

[paolostivanin]

adapt to all api changes (gtkbutton, gtkheaderbar, etc)

[paolostivanin]

This might be postponed for v3.0 in case GTK4 won't be declared stable before the end of 2019

[paolostivanin]

Given that v2 might come out before the end of summer 2019 and GTK4 is not even close on being declared stable, I have decided to postpone the port to v3.0.0

[paolostivanin]

Seems like GTK4 will be released in Autumn 2020...

[paolostivanin]

At the moment, neither Ubuntu nor Debian have GTK4 in their official repo. The port will take some time, let's hope they will eventually adopt GTK4, given that it is parallel-installable with GTK3.
Otherwise, users will have to switch to Flatpak or keep the 2.x.y version for the time being.

Stats for the GTK4 port and cleanup:

32 files changed, 1547 insertions(+), 2416 deletions(-)

this will be released with 3.0.0-alpha1

[paolostivanin]

@pavelbsd the port to GTK4 hasn't happened yet. The code is there, but it's still gonna take time.
The screenshot feature has been removed since 2.5.0, because GNOME removed that API (see #185 for more info).
If you wanna update OTPClient to the latest version (and you should 😄) you can use the official ppa: https://launchpad.net/~polslinux/+archive/ubuntu/otpclient/+packages

be careful not to use deprecated GTK5 widgets https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gtk/-/tree/main/gtk/deprecated

[paolostivanin]

evaluate also AdwLeaflet

EDIT: nope, AdwLeaflet is gonna be deprecated with 1.4. Need to look for another alternative.

EDIT: the alternative is AdwNavigationSplitView

[paolostivanin]

waiting for libadwaita 1.4.0

[paolostivanin]

We will be using AdwNavigationSplitView, where the sidebar will contain the database(s) and the content page will contain all tokens.

ToDo:

• create new UI compatible with GTK5 (replace GtkTreeView, GtkDialog, etc)
• implement all current features
• be sure that UX on smaller screens works fine (Switch to libadwaita #262)
• be sure that columns are resizable
• be sure that rows are reorderable
• add full search support (Add full search support #267)
• add support for multiple dbs
• add option to export one by one or all in a single file
• extensive testing

slowly getting there 😄
