The GrantPermissionsActivity pops up during navigation and blocks the
app's event loop, preventing hub responses. Pre-grant all runtime
permissions after APK install to avoid this.
PID 28203 (rs.robius.robrix) was the actual zombie reclaiming foreground
and killing our test app - not our own package. Force-stop both the
target package and known interfering Makepad apps (Robrix) during test
setup to prevent cross-app foreground competition.
Also remove the pm disable-user approach as it doesn't help against
a different package's zombie process.
Samsung devices keep killed app processes alive and bring them back to
the foreground ~15s later, killing our fresh test instance. force-stop
and kill -9 don't prevent this. pm disable-user fully prevents the
zombie from being restarted. Re-enable before launching the new instance.
Adds the Android test runtime to makepad_test: builds the APK with
cargo-makepad's standard Java path, installs and launches via adb with
makepad.STUDIO_* intent extras (incl. STUDIO_BUILD), connects the app to an
in-process hub over adb reverse, and waits for startup + responsiveness.
Adds clean in-process hub shutdown (HttpServerHandle + GatewayHandle Drop)
and the STUDIO_BUILD intent parsing on the app side. No native-activity or
NDK APK compilation code is included.
Two knobs, both defaulting to exactly what happens today.
MAKEPAD_TEST_PARALLEL opts out of the global TEST_MUTEX. Every test
currently takes that lock for its whole body, so `--test-threads=N` has no
effect at all and there is nothing in the API that says so. Serial is the
right default — each test drives a whole app process, and oversubscribing
the machine makes timing-sensitive assertions flaky — but it should be the
suite's call.
MAKEPAD_TEST_PUMP_TICKS sets how many Ticks are forwarded before each
query. Each one costs the app a full rendered frame whenever anything is
dirty, so the hardcoded 3 is a 3x multiplier on the cost of every
`widget_snapshot()`, which is the single most common thing a test does.
Reporting the measurements honestly, from a 55-test suite downstream:
- Parallel at 4-way took it from 67 min to 11-20 min, but 2-3 tests failed
per run and the SET changed between runs — load-induced, not specific
tests. Useful for local iteration, not something to turn on by default,
which is why it is opt-in and documented as such rather than flipped.
- PUMP_TICKS=1 measured 1.47x on a fixed 10-test slice with no failures,
but broke one drag-and-drop test elsewhere in a way I could not explain,
so treat it as a tuning knob to try rather than a free win.
The flakiness above is a property of tests that wait by counting polls: how
much wall clock and how many frames a poll buys both change under load. That
is worth fixing in the tests, not by keeping the lock.
* fix a pile of splash script-vm bugs: newline statements, short-circuit args, tail calls
went through the script VM and parser and fixed a batch of correctness bugs
that were biting the launcher's mini-apps:
- newline-delimited statements: a `(` or `[` at the start of the next line no
longer greedily glues onto the previous value as a call/index. leading infix
operators and `.` still continue the expression (the shader DSL needs that),
and the divert is suppressed inside ()/[] groupings.
- short-circuit `&&`/`||` used as a call argument no longer loses its value to
nil when the jump skips a multi-op right-hand side.
- a call as the very last statement of a script actually executes now, in both
end-of-parse unwind loops (also patched a zero-offset ShortCircuitEnd).
- custom widgets that deref to a base with a #[source] field now forward
script_source, so script_apply_eval works on them instead of silently no-op'ing.
plus regression tests for the newline and short-circuit cases.
* harden splash isolates: scoped timers, net gating, effective-visibility snapshots
isolate-safety work so mini-apps can't reach outside their sandbox:
- isolate-safe script-timer dispatch hook + gc for stale timers
- gate net.socket_stream on the net runtime being present
- widget-tree snapshot reports effective visibility (a widget counts as hidden
if any ancestor is hidden)
- macos_activate_app (plus a headless no-op) so the launcher can focus itself
* widen the host->splash surface: splash setters, view/glassbutton script calls
everything the host needs to poke into a running mini-app's script:
- Splash: call_script_fn, set_script_global, set_allow_net, and a cached body id
so host->script calls don't rescan for the body every time
- View.set_visible and GlassButton set_text/text are callable from script now
- makepad_test learned right-click (secondary button) so the headless tests can
exercise long-press / context menus
* fix small-size glass lens + sdf box degeneration, warn on missing glyphs
visual correctness fixes we kept tripping over:
- cap the gauss lens band at 35% of the surface's smaller side so tiny discs
degrade gracefully instead of smearing
- clamp the Sdf2d.box (and box_x/box_y/box_all) radius so an oversized radius
saturates at a circle instead of collapsing into a rotated diamond
- log once per codepoint when no loaded font can render it (was silently
drawing .notdef boxes)
* guard stale rect areas in clipped_rect/abs_to_rel/set_rect against out-of-bounds panics
* add switch_finger_capture to hand a live finger capture between widgets mid-drag
* add promote_finger_capture_over: hand a child-grabbed finger up to a co-capturing container
* splash: add validate_splash_body, a dry-run eval for externally-sourced scripts
evaluates a body in a throwaway isolate with the exact prefix/limits the
Splash widget uses and returns the captured script errors instead of logging
them. lets hosts that install source from outside (downloads, AI generation,
user input) reject bad scripts with real errors to show or feed back, where
the widget's own eval silently keeps the old view.
* strip mod.res from splash isolates; document validate_splash_body caveats
the res module's handles reach both the filesystem (abs_path loads) and the
network (web_url / http resources) without going through the gated net
runtime, so a 'no-net' isolate could still fetch and exfiltrate. found by an
adversarial review of AI-generated app installs, but it applies to any
untrusted splash source.
also note on validate_splash_body that the instruction limit bounds compute,
not heap growth, and that top-level timers live until isolate reclamation --
same exposure as actually installing the source, so validation adds nothing
new.
* splash: jailed per-app file storage (mod.fs inside isolates)
mini-apps get an OS-style private data directory, like an android app's
internal storage or an iOS container: the app sees a filesystem rooted at
"/", and that root IS its host-assigned sandbox directory
(Splash::set_sandbox_dir / SplashRef forwarder). registered as mod.fs in
isolates -- deliberately shadowing the stripped real fs module, so inside
an app "the filesystem" simply is the jail:
fs.read fs.write fs.append fs.exists fs.remove fs.mkdir fs.list
containment lives entirely in the host layer:
- lexical path resolution against the root; `..` above the root, NUL, deep
or overlong paths are errors before any I/O
- the per-VM root is rust state keyed by the isolate's heap -- script code
can neither read nor retarget it
- symlink defense in depth: nothing here can create links, and every
existing component under the root is verified non-symlink before use
- quotas: 1MB/file, 16MB/jail, 256 entries
- no root assigned (previews) -> every call errors cleanly
validate_splash_body gives dry runs a throwaway jail (temp dir, removed
after) so top-level fs.read boot loads validate instead of erroring. roots
are dropped with their isolates in the gc.
unit tests cover the containment: traversal/absolute/backslash escapes,
depth/name caps, and the symlink block.
* splash: put the jailed fs module in scope as a bare name
app scripts say fs.read("/x"), but the eval prefix only used the widgets
prelude, so bare fs resolved to a not-found error value and every storage
call failed silently. bind it in the prefix (let fs = mod.fs) for both the
plain and net variants; a script reassigning fs only shadows its own name,
the jail stays host-side.
* splash storage: quota + boundary hardening from adversarial review
three confirmed jail findings:
- mkdir bypassed every quota (target + create_dir_all, no jail_usage check)
-> unbounded inode/dir-metadata exhaustion on the shared host volume.
now charges new dirs against MAX_ENTRIES via missing_entries(); write's
entry check does the same so a deep write can't overshoot the cap either.
- write/append/mkdir lacked remove's root guard: fs.write("/", data)
resolved real == root and reached create_dir_all(root.parent()) -- one
dir above the jail (the shared app_data/). now rejected like remove does.
- validate_splash_body's scratch jail used a predictable temp name created
with create_dir_all (would follow a planted symlink out of temp). now an
exclusive create_dir on a per-process+vm name (EEXIST-safe against a
planted entry), reclaimed via gc before the dir is removed so a top-level
timer can't resurrect it.
unit tests added for missing_entries; the containment tests still pass.
* splash: empty set_text tears down the isolate instead of no-oping
set_text("") was a silent no-op (eval_body early-returns on an empty body),
so a reused Splash that goes back to empty -- the widget-gallery live preview
on Back -- left its old isolate running its timers (and holding a storage-jail
binding) behind a blank view. now an empty body reclaims the isolate: the
isolate-minted view is replaced with a fresh empty one built in the main vm
BEFORE the isolate heap is freed, then the isolate is gc'd (stopping its
timers, dropping its jail root); vm_id resets to MAIN so a later non-empty
set_text allocs a fresh isolate as before. the existing host_launcher
teardown call sites (widget picker back()/reset()) become correct unchanged.
* overlay: composite glass in draw order, not creation order
every gauss/glass surface opens its own draw list and registers it in the
window's single Overlay via store_sub_list, which hands out the first free
slot and keeps it for the life of the process. renderers walk that table in
index order, so the paint order of all glass in an app was the order the
surfaces were first *created* — permanently, with freed slots reused by
whatever registered next. draw order never came into it, so a widget rebuilt
after a layout change, or a panel opened later, could land on top of anything
drawn after it. the only workarounds available to apps were "don't draw the
thing that's winning", which looks like a bug.
the hook for fixing it was already there and unused: CxDrawList's
draw_item_reorder, honoured by every backend (metal, d3d11, opengl, vulkan,
web_gl, headless raster). so stamp each overlay sub-list with the position it
was begun in this frame (Cx2d::overlay_seq, reset in Overlay::begin) and have
Overlay::end stable-sort the table by that stamp.
this also gets parent-then-child right without special cases, which matters
because glass.GlassButton / glass.GlassSegmented call begin_overlay_reuse
unconditionally instead of checking is_drawing_overlay(), so they hold their
own slots rather than riding their parent's.
* glass.GlassSegmented: size segments to their labels, add set_selected
three things, all of them things that looked broken to a user:
- segments were width/count, so "Max" got the same room as "Default": the long
word crowded, the short one floated. each segment is now measured (DrawText
layout size_in_lpxs) and gets its text plus padding, with leftover width
shared equally so every label keeps the same margin. if the labels don't fit,
the padding shrinks (never the text) to a floor. the pill's x/width are
computed in rust and passed as uniforms since they can't come from a segment
count any more, and hit-testing is a boundary lookup rather than a division.
- `selected` was public but the pill is drawn from a private sel_pos that only
followed it via the click animation, so restoring a saved value from code
left the control showing one segment while reporting another — and a click on
the segment it really held was then ignored as "already selected". that reads
as the control eating your clicks. set_selected keeps both in step.
- the travel easing was 0.30, which arrived before the eye could follow it.
0.16.
* text_input: re-layout when max_lines changes
the laidout text was cached on width alone, so flipping draw_text.max_lines
at runtime (collapsing a composer to one line) kept the old multi-row layout
and the field never shrank. make max_lines part of the cache key.
* text_input: add set_max_lines instead of making callers script it
applying script to a TextInput re-applies its #[live] fields, and text is
one of them, so toggling max_lines through script_apply_eval! silently
wiped whatever the user had typed. give it a typed setter.
* text_input: don't drop the layout in set_max_lines
clearing laidout_text there leaves the field with no layout for the rest
of the event batch, so every cursor op in that window bails out with
"can't move cursor because layout was invalidated by an earlier event".
since set_max_lines gets called from focus/blur handling, that window is
exactly when you're clicking into the field — so the click placed no
caret at all. max_lines is already part of the layout cache key, so the
next draw re-lays out on its own.
* text_input: add scroll_to_top
for a field that folds to a fixed height when it loses focus: the scroll
offset survives the blur, so a draft last edited near its end folds
showing whichever line the caret had scrolled to rather than its first.
leaves laidout_text alone — scrolling doesn't change the layout, and
dropping it would break every cursor op for the rest of the event batch,
same trap as set_max_lines.
* text_input: add set_height
for a composer that folds to one line when it loses focus. pinning the
height is the safe way to fold — unlike clamping max_lines it leaves the
laid-out text alone, and the laid-out text is what maps a click to a
caret position. fold by re-layout and the press that re-focuses the
field resolves against the folded layout while the expanded one is on
screen, so the caret and any drag-selection land on the wrong text.
* text_input: add take_key_focus, which actually shows the caret
the caret draws as (1.0 - blink) * focus, and both come from animators
that only move when the widget is dealt a Hit::KeyFocus. setting key
focus on a field that ALREADY holds it dispatches no hit — so a field
that was focused, then hidden (hiding doesn't clear Cx's key focus) and
shown again comes back typable but with no caret and no selection
highlight, animators still parked where the last focus-lost left them.
plays focus.on unconditionally rather than only when focus changed:
repairing the case where it did NOT change is the entire point.
* splash: name scripts in errors, and stop using line as an identity slot
a runtime error from a Splash app logged `:1804943384:12 - widget has
no uid`: empty file, and a "line" that is really a pointer address.
the format is {file}:{line}:{col}, and both fields were casualties of
the same hack — ScriptMod.line carried self_id so the body could be
found again (m.line == self_id && m.file.is_empty()), while ip_to_loc
adds that same field to the script's real line when reporting. so every
location came out as real_line + a pointer, and nothing said WHICH app.
identity moves to module_path, which nothing else reads for these
bodies, freeing line to be a line. file gets a real name via a new
set_debug_name the host calls with the mini-app's id.
the validator's ScriptMod gets the same treatment — its errors are
shown to the user AND fed back to the agent as repair input, so a
location offset by a vm id was actively misleading there.
* splash: document the constant offset in reported script lines
the host prefix is two lines, so a reported line is two ahead of the
app's own file. it can't be zero — a zero-line prefix would share line 1
with the app's first line, and that line is always the // name: header,
which would comment the prefix out.
* script: stop silently losing widgets emitted from branches and loops
Splash mini-apps kept rendering nothing from on_render closures with zero
errors logged. Bisected live and in pure-VM probes, this was a pile of
separate bugs in the same corner:
- an if/else whose branch emits a widget lost the taken true branch: the
statement's POP_TO_ME got fused onto the else tail, which the IF_ELSE
jump skips. Generalized last_short_circuit_target into last_jump_target
and record every branch join (if/elif/else, match, try/err), so the
commit lands standalone AT the join and every path runs it. Same disease
as the short-circuit-argument bug, new jump sites.
- elif never patched its arm's IF_ELSE jump (relative 0), so a taken arm
spun the interpreter until the instruction limit killed the whole entry.
elif now desugars into else { if ... } via IfElseExpr, which also gives
its arms the join treatment.
- for x in <non-iterable> silently skipped the body where the equivalent
while errored; now raises "for loop source is not iterable" (nil and
empty sources stay silent). for k v in <number> passed key/index swapped
and lost k after the first iteration (the advance only rebound v).
- a line-leading { after a value-ending line glued onto the previous
expression as a proto instantiation; it now starts a new statement,
same divert rule the ( and [ newline fix added.
- int literals were second-class numbers: U40/I32/F32/F16/U32 didn't
collapse to the number bucket in to_redux, so 6 .is_number() missed
method dispatch entirely and an int arg against a float default failed
with "expected number, got number". They're all just numbers now.
Regression tests in tests/on_render_emission.rs cover each shape, incl.
the exact calendar/weather patterns that were blank in the launcher.
* splash: keep an on_render closure's final widget, and say when a render fails
Two host-side halves of the emission-loss story:
- the parser turns a closure's last statement into its return value, so a
render closure that ENDS with a widget literal built it and then threw it
away (this is why wrapping a whole render in one extra View{} produced
nothing). script_result now pushes a returned widget object into me as
the last child; non-widget returns still get skipped downstream.
- a render closure that errors mid-run used to have its output discarded
with no diagnostics at all, which is what made this whole bug family
cost days to find. Now it logs the error before dropping the result.
* script: auto-close still-open fn and let states at end of source
Both parse drivers dropped EndFnExpr/EndFnBlock/EmitLetDyn through their
auto-close catch-all when the source ended with them still open. A module
whose FINAL statement was let c = <lambda> got a body whose jump-over
stayed 0 — FN_BODY_DYN re-ran, found its me already popped, logged
"me stack is empty" and fell straight INTO the body, running it inline
at definition time and ending the module eval early — and the let itself
never emitted, so the binding silently didn't exist (same for
let c = <call>). Now those states close the way the live handlers do:
return + jump patch for the body, LET_DYN/LET_TYPED for the binding, and
the let's own EndStmt no longer marks a statement value (LET consumed
it; the final RETURN would pop an empty stack).
Fun consequence: the old test idiom of reading a result via
let out = r
out
only ever worked BECAUSE the trailing let was dropped — RETURN popped
the naked value off the stack. With the let actually binding, scripts
must end on a call (echo(r)); the emission tests are updated to do that.
Regression tests in tests/auto_close_eof.rs, including the exact
deferred-boot-timer closure shape the launcher apps use (which was
already fine — it just LOOKED guilty, see the splash commit).
* splash: probe optional script hooks without spamming the error log
call_script_fn checks whether the fn exists and bails quietly — but it
probed with a trapping scope_value, which had already queued a NotFound
by the time the miss was handled. Every host broadcast of an optional
hook (on_app_resize, on_widget_resize) against a script that doesn't
define it logged
variable 00001e93e419c77c not found in scope
— maximally misleading: the hex is just id!(on_app_resize) (Rust-side
ids aren't in the reverse-lookup table so they print raw), and the
line:col is the stale ip from the end of that script's eval, which
pointed at whatever closure happened to be compiled last. In the
launcher that was the boot-timer line of every generated app, sending
the investigation down a deferred-closure rabbit hole the pure-VM tests
then cleared. Probe with NoTrap.
* script derive: don't name the eval values vec 'v'
script_apply_eval!'s generated values block bound 'let mut v' and then
spliced #(expr) interpolations in verbatim — so a caller interpolating a
variable that happened to be called v got the macro's own half-built Vec
(borrow errors if you were lucky, the wrong value if not). Obscure name
instead.
* headless: don't compile the Apple video path
Upstream's zero-copy video work put CoreVideo/Metal code in
gpu_texture.rs (plus two consumers) behind cfg(target_os = "macos")
alone. Under cfg(headless) the apple backend isn't built at all, so
every one of those symbols — ObjcId, msg_send!, CVPixelBufferRef,
CVMetalTextureCache* — is missing and makepad-platform fails to
compile with 94 errors. That takes the headless harness down with it,
which is what host_launcher's UI tests run on.
Gate the Apple blocks on not(headless) too. Nothing is lost: headless
has no Metal device to import a CVPixelBuffer into, so the whole path
is inapplicable there.
Not caused by the rebase — pristine dev has it: its headless
CxOsTexture is an empty struct while gpu_texture.rs reads .os.texture.
* ft makepad_test
* Improve run handling, manifest parsing, and stdout newline
Replace dynamic free-port lookup with an ephemeral localhost SocketAddr in test runtime and remove the unused find_free_listen_address helper. Ensure headless stdout messages end with a newline. Simplify send_to_app error handling and add a test that queued bootstrap messages are delivered once an app socket connects. Substantially enhance process_manager: unify cargo flag parsing, parse Cargo.toml to determine package/bin targets, resolve the correct binary name for direct stdio runs, and build the cargo/build+exec script from the resolved args. Add unit tests for manifest parsing and script generation and adjust related call sites.
* test harness
* Preserve test attrs; return Vec for gateway binds
In the test macro (libs/makepad_test/macros/src/lib.rs) preserve wrapper-only attributes (ignore and should_panic) on the generated wrapper test while removing them from the inner function. Added Attribute import, is_wrapper_only_test_attr helper, adjusted attribute filtering and emission, and added unit tests to verify attribute placement and expansion.
In the hub (studio/hub/src/hub.rs) change gateway_bind_candidates to return a Vec<SocketAddr> instead of an iterator and special-case ephemeral port 0 to preserve ephemeral binding; otherwise collect the range of candidate ports into a Vec. Added tests to validate candidate behavior. Also minor formatting/whitespace tweaks and a small IPv6 formatting adjustment.
* Add visible Studio mode and remote client
Enable running UI tests visibly through a running Makepad Studio. Adds a new makepad-network dependency and studio_remote client (libs/makepad_test/src/studio_remote.rs) and integrates it into the runtime via a TestConnection enum. Introduces visible-mode tooling: env vars (MAKEPAD_TEST_VISIBLE, MAKEPAD_TEST_STUDIO, MAKEPAD_TEST_STUDIO_MOUNT, MAKEPAD_TEST_STARTUP_DELAY_MS, MAKEPAD_TEST_ACTION_DELAY_MS, MAKEPAD_TEST_KEEP_OPEN_MS), pacing/delays after actions, and pause-before-shutdown. Splits startup into start_headless_app/start_visible_app, clears existing visible builds before launching, and updates tests, docs (GUIDE.md, README.md), and selector/runtime minor cleanups/formatting.
