menuconfig: Fix crash when pressing Ctrl-F with no matches in jump-to dialog

2018-10-13T23:51:01Z

Ctrl-F is the jump-to dialog view-help shortcut. It needs to check whether there are any matches, like Enter/jump-to does.

Make 10.14.0 release

2018-10-13T22:58:32Z

Adds two menuconfig improvements and a documentation improvement: - Commit 96682d7 ("menuconfig: Add jump-to for choices, menus, and comments") generalizes the jump-to feature so that choices, menus, and comments can be jumped to in addition to symbols (or into, in the case of choices and menus). - Commit fae2e70 ("menuconfig: Do not show range hint for symbols without ranges") despams the menuconfig interface and could potentially avoid some confusion. - Commit bde4cc7 ("Add some hints re. generating custom configuration output") adds some documentation hints re. using the Symbol.config_string field when generating custom output. It can be useful for pruning symbols even when the output format isn't .config-like.

menuconfig: Add jump-to for choices, menus, and comments

2018-10-13T22:54:10Z

For choices, search the name and the prompt. This is the same as for symbols, except names are optional (and rare) for choices. For menus and comments, search the prompt (title text). When jumping to a non-empty choice or menu, jump into it instead of jumping to its menu node. If show-all mode is off and there are visible items in the choice/menu, then jump to the first visible node. Otherwise, enable show-all and jump to the first node.

menuconfig: Do not show range hint for symbols without ranges

2018-10-13T15:40:53Z

The 'no range constraints' input dialog hint for int/hex symbols might be more confusing than helpful, especially if you assume it was something the symbol author put there. Only show the range hint for symbols with active ranges instead, and show nothing for other symbols.

Add some hints re. generating custom configuration output

2018-10-12T22:23:34Z

It's not obvious that Symbol.config_string can be useful even when generating other output formats, as it provides a hook for _write_to_conf. Mention it in the 'config_string' documentation and in relevant parts of the README.

Make 10.13.0 release

2018-10-10T17:40:33Z

Adds commit a247f3f ("menuconfig: Improve/fix promptless choice handling"), which fixes an obscure menuconfig crash involving symbols in promptless choices, and improves how choices are displayed in show-all/show-name mode a bit ('' instead of either nothing or '').

menuconfig: Improve/fix promptless choice handling

2018-10-10T12:38:49Z

The code assumed that all parent (interface) menus always have a prompt, which is false for items in promptless choices. This lead to a crash e.g. when viewing the symbol information for a symbol within a promptless choice. Promptless choices with children can show up "legitimately" when people define choices in multiple locations to add symbols, though this is broken in the C tools. Use standard_sc_expr_str(node.item) instead of the non-existing prompt for promptless choices. That way they show up as )>, which is consistent with how they're shown elsewhere. This commit also changes how choices names are displayed in show-name/show-all mode, to the standard_sc_expr_str() format.
