// The classes derived from Command::Base represent units-of-work, which can be exectuted / undone
// repeatedly. The command objects are collected in a linear list implemented in the QUndoStack class.
// They contain the information that is necessary to either perform or undo the unit-of-work.
// The usage is:
// constructor: generate information that is needed for executing the unit-of-work
// redo(): performs the unit-of-work and generates the information that is needed for undo()
// undo(): undos the unit-of-work and regenerates the initial information needed in redo()
// The needed information is mostly kept in pointers to dives and/or trips, which have to be added
// or removed.
// For this to work it is crucial that
// 1) Pointers to dives and trips remain valid as long as referencing command-objects exist.
// 2) The dive-table is not resorted, because dives are inserted at given indices.
//
// Thus, if a command deletes a dive or a trip, the actual object must not be deleted. Instead,
// the command object removes pointers to the dive/trip object from the backend and takes ownership.
// To reverse such a deletion, the object is re-injected into the backend and ownership is given up.
// Once ownership of a dive is taken, any reference to it was removed from the backend. Thus,
// subsequent redo()/undo() actions cannot access this object and integrity of the data is ensured.
//
// As an example, consider the following course of events: Dive 1 is renumbered and deleted, dive 2
// is added and renumbered. The undo list looks like this (---> non-owning, ***> owning pointers,
// ===> next item in list)
//
// Undo-List
// +-----------------+ +---------------+ +------------+ +-----------------+
// | Renumber dive 1 |====>| Delete dive 1 |====>| Add dive 2 |====>| Renumber dive 2 |
// +------------------ +---------------+ +------------+ +-----------------+
// | * | |
// | +--------+ * | +--------+ |
// +----->| Dive 1 |<****** +--->| Dive 2 |<------+
// +--------+ +--------+
// ^
// +---------+ *
// | Backend |****************
// +---------+
// Two points of note:
// 1) Every dive is owned by either the backend or exactly one command object.
// 2) All references to dive 1 are *before* the owner "delete dive 2", thus the pointer is always valid.
// 3) References by the backend are *always* owning.
//
// The user undos the last two commands. The situation now looks like this:
//
//
// Undo-List Redo-List
// +-----------------+ +---------------+ +------------+ +-----------------+
// | Renumber dive 1 |====>| Delete dive 1 | | Add dive 2 |<====| Renumber dive 2 |
// +------------------ +---------------+ +------------+ +-----------------+
// | * * |
// | +--------+ * * +--------+ |
// +----->| Dive 1 |<****** ****>| Dive 2 |<------+
// +--------+ +--------+
//
// +---------+
// | Backend |
// +---------+
// Again:
// 1) Every dive is owned by either the backend (here none) or exactly one command object.
// 2) All references to dive 1 are *before* the owner "delete dive 1", thus the pointer is always valid.
// 3) All references to dive 2 are *after* the owner "add dive 2", thus the pointer is always valid.
//
// The user undos one more command:
//
// Undo-List Redo-List
// +-----------------+ +---------------+ +------------+ +-----------------+
// | Renumber dive 1 | | Delete dive 1 |<====| Add dive 2 |<====| Renumber dive 2 |
// +------------------ +---------------+ +------------+ +-----------------+
// | | * |
// | +--------+ | * +--------+ |
// +----->| Dive 1 |<-----+ ****>| Dive 2 |<------+
// +--------+ +--------+
// ^
// * +---------+
// ***************| Backend |
// +---------+
// Same points as above.
// The user now adds a dive 3. The redo list will be deleted:
//
// Undo-List
// +-----------------+ +------------+
// | Renumber dive 1 |=============================================>| Add dive 3 |
// +------------------ +------------+
// | |
// | +--------+ +--------+ |
// +----->| Dive 1 | | Dive 3 |<---+
// +--------+ +--------+
// ^ ^
// * +---------+ *
// ***************| Backend |****************
// +---------+
// Note:
// 1) Dive 2 was deleted with the "add dive 2" command, because that was the owner.
// 2) Dive 1 was not deleted, because it is owned by the backend.
//
// To take ownership of dives/trips, the OnwingDivePtr and OwningTripPtr types are used. These
// are simply derived from std::unique_ptr and therefore use well-established semantics.
// Expressed in C-terms: std::unique_ptr<T> is exactly the same as T* with the following
// twists:
// 1) default-initialized to NULL.
// 2) if it goes out of scope (local scope or containing object destroyed), it does:
// if (ptr) free_function(ptr);
// whereby free_function can be configured (defaults to delete ptr).
// 3) assignment between two std::unique_ptr<T> compiles only if the source is reset (to NULL).
// (hence the name - there's a *unique* owner).
// While this sounds trivial, experience shows that this distinctly simplifies memory-management
// (it's not necessary to manually delete all vector items in the destructur, etc).
// Note that Qt's own implementation (QScoperPointer) is not up to the job, because it doesn't implement
// move-semantics and Qt's containers are incompatible, owing to COW semantics.
//
// Usage:
// OwningDivePtr dPtr; // Initialize to null-state: not owning any dive.
// OwningDivePtr dPtr(dive); // Take ownership of dive (which is of type struct dive *).
// // If dPtr goes out of scope, the dive will be freed with free_dive().
// struct dive *d = dPtr.release(); // Give up ownership of dive. dPtr is reset to null.
// struct dive *d = d.get(); // Get pointer dive, but don't release ownership.
// dPtr.reset(dive2); // Delete currently owned dive with free_dive() and get ownership of dive2.
// dPtr.reset(); // Delete currently owned dive and reset to null.
// dPtr2 = dPtr1; // Fails to compile.
// dPtr2 = std::move(dPtr1); // dPtr2 takes ownership, dPtr1 is reset to null.
// OwningDivePtr fun();
// dPtr1 = fun(); // Compiles. Simply put: the compiler knows that the result of fun() will
// // be trashed and therefore can be moved-from.
// std::vector<OwningDivePtr> v: // Define an empty vector of owning pointers.
// v.emplace_back(dive); // Take ownership of dive and add at end of vector
// // If the vector goes out of scope, all dives will be freed with free_dive().
// v.clear(v); // Reset the vector to zero length. If the elements weren't release()d,
// // the pointed-to dives are freed with free_dive()
// Qt is making their containers a lot harder to integrate with std::vector
