1. machine_info.h: zero-initialise Screen struct members
Max_width, Max_height, count, width[] and height[] were bare
int32_t with no initialiser. The comparisons in
init_get_Screen_info() read them before any write, producing
undefined behaviour flagged by Valgrind as 'Conditional jump
or move depends on uninitialised value(s)'.
2. main.cpp: pre-initialise MachineInfo on the main thread
MachineInfo::instance() was first called inside QtConcurrent::run(),
causing its constructor (which calls qApp->screens()) to run on a
background thread. QScreen methods are not thread-safe in Qt5.
Calling instance() once on the main thread before the worker
launches guarantees the singleton is fully built first; subsequent
calls from the worker just return the cached pointer.
3. qetdiagrameditor.h: move m_first_show before the QActionGroup members
C++ initialises members in declaration order. m_first_show was
declared after the QActionGroup members (line 256 vs 168). During
construction of m_row_column_actions_group(this), Qt dispatches a
QObject parent-change event that reaches QETDiagramEditor::event(),
which reads m_first_show before it has been initialised.
Moving the declaration to the top of the first private: block
ensures it is initialised before any member that can trigger events.
All three found via Valgrind --tool=memcheck on Ubuntu 22.04 / Qt 5.15.3.
Relates-to: PR #514 (same QtConcurrent thread-safety pattern).
QETProject schedules an asynchronous crash-recovery backup on construction
(writeBackup() -> QtConcurrent::run(QET::writeToFile, ..., &m_backup_file)).
In one-shot CLI mode the QETProject is destroyed as soon as the command
returns, while that background write still references its m_backup_file
member — an intermittent use-after-free segfault during teardown (~1 in 6
runs; observed on --resave and --set-titleblock).
A crash-recovery backup is meaningless for a short-lived headless command,
so add QETProject::setBackupEnabled(false), called from the CLI entry in
main(). writeBackup() then early-returns, so no background write is ever
launched. Fixes the crash for all CLI commands. See #492.
Implements the long-requested batch/headless export
(bugtracker #171, GitHub #309): render a project's diagrams to files
without opening the GUI.
qelectrotech --export-pdf <project.qet> <output.pdf> one multi-page PDF
qelectrotech --export-png <project.qet> <output_dir> one PNG per diagram
qelectrotech --export-svg <project.qet> <output_dir> one SVG per diagram
main.cpp detects an export request before SingleApplication is created (so the
arguments are not forwarded to a running instance), spins up a plain
QApplication for rendering, and exits with the export's status code.
Rendering reuses Diagram::render() over
BorderTitleBlock::borderAndTitleBlockRect(), the same geometry the GUI
print/export path uses, so output matches the editor. Image files are named
NN_Title.<ext>.
New files: sources/cli_export.{h,cpp}, registered in
cmake/qet_compilation_vars.cmake.
Because on windows MachineInfo take a little time to init, we make it to
a singleton.
MachineInfo is build the first time in main.cpp.
Now all other places where we use MachineInfo (aboutqetdialog and
configdialog) gui don't hang anymore in waiting to MachineInfo finish to
build.
