1) We now try to hand out cursors at a minimum. There has always been
a fairly clean insertion layer that handles encrypting message bodies,
but the process of decrypting message bodies has always been less than
ideal. Here we introduce a "Reader" interface that will decrypt message
bodies when appropriate and return objects that encapsulate record state.
No more MessageDisplayHelper. The MmsSmsDatabase interface is also more
sane.
2) We finally rid ourselves of the technical debt associated with TextSecure's
initial usage of the default SMS DB. In that world, we weren't able to use
anything other than the default "Inbox, Outbox, Sent" types to describe a
message, and had to overload the message content itself with a set of
local "prefixes" to describe what it was (encrypted, asymetric encrypted,
remote encrypted, a key exchange, procssed key exchange), and so on.
This includes a major schema update that transforms the "type" field into
a bitmask that describes everything that used to be encoded in a prefix,
and prefixes have been completely eliminated from the system.
No more Prefix.java
3) Refactoring of the MultipartMessageHandler code. It's less of a mess, and
hopefully more clear as to what's going on.
The next step is to remove what we can from SmsTransportDetails and genericize
that interface for a GCM equivalent.
1) We record time sent in SMS database (date_sent).
2) We record time received in MMS database (date_received).
3) We union this information correctly in MmsSmsDatabase.
Mostly, the inheritance graph for MessageRecord/MmsMessageRecord was
all messed up, and each class was overloaded for things it shouldn't
have been.
1) Broke MessageRecord/MmsMessageRecord up into: DisplayRecord, ThreadRecord,
MessageRecord, SmsMessageRecord, NotificationMmsMessageRecord, and
MediaMmsMessageRecord.
2) Updated all the adapters/views to keep pace with that change.
You know, it's much more fun listening to you in a lecture theatre. :-P
Right; any nit picks now might have to wait 3 weeks, depending on
available connectivity. Hope I did not screw this one up.
1) Change all instances which use concatenation to build strings
with variables in them to use string formatting instead.
2) Extract all string literals from layouts and menus into strings.xml
3) Extract all string literals from code into strings.xml
1) Move to Fragments for the list view.
2) Switch to CursorLoader from my jankey self-managed cursor.
3) Add session security logic to the ActionBar.
4) Fix colors to be less ugly.
