For now it's only for WMS but you get the idea.
There is a new abstract base class for the source select
dialogs, that will grow with common behavior for all
the select dialogs.
Signals are forwarded from the (root) data items to the
app and then delivered to the various browser instances
and to the unified layer dialog.
A change in one of the browser items should trigger a
refresh in all the other browsers and dialogs.
Rationale:
- there was a lot of large objects passed by value, so potentially
there's a speed bump from this
- even for implicitly shared classes like QString/QList there's still
a (small) cost for copying the objects when there's no reason to
- it's the right thing to do!
- update methods of existing classes
- add comment to methods missing in the sip bindings
- split up collective sip files into single files and use
same directory structure in python/ as in src/
- add a lot of missing classes (some might not make sense because of
missing python methods in those classes)
- remove some non-existing methods from the header files
- add scripts/sipdiff
- replace some usages of std::vector and std::set with QVector/QSet
