Before, when Dolphin was closed but opened with any URLs, it would open
a new window with only those URLs, rather than restoring any window
state (if the user has this feature enabled).
Now, Dolphin will first restore state (if enabled) and then append any
URLs, rather than replacing the existing set of URLs.
The "new instance" case was previously handled automatically and now
needs to be explictly handled by checking for it, to make sure that new
instances give you a clean window rather than a state-restored window.
BUG: 427274
FIXED-IN: 20.12
Summary:
All modern web browsers offer a function to show tabs from last time when a browser starts, and many apps today
restore their prior state when they're launched. This patch implements thatfunctionality as an option and turns it on by default.
The settings window is accordingly adjusted to be clear about what applies when:

FEATURE: 413564
FIXED-IN: 20.08.0
Depends on D25106
Depends on D25219
Test Plan:
With the new setting turned off:
- No behavioral changes at all
With the new setting turned on:
- When launched from the GUI or CLI without any URLs, dolphin restores session
- When rebooting with Dolphin open, it restores session normally after the system comes back (i.e. no behavioral change here)
- When launched with URLs, Dolphin window is opened showing those URLs instead of restoring session
- When Dolphin is already running and a new window is opened, that new window shows a single tab with the same URL as was visible in the previously-open Dolphin instance (i.e. no behavioral change here)
- "Open Containing folder" functionality in other apps works regardless of whether or not Dolphin is running

Summary:
`dolphin --daemon` does not have the `/dolphin/Dolphin_1` dbus path,
because it doesn't have any DolphinMainWindow.
Instead of working around this issue (as we did in D21666 and D25510),
just exclude these processes from the list of dbus instances checked by
`Dolphin::attachToExistingInstance()`.

Summary:
Currently the DBus service is created before the MainWindow DBus object is
created. This can cause hangs if another service makes calls to a a method
in an object that's not been initialised, when the service is already published.
This patch defers the creation of the service until all DBus objects are
created.
Test Plan:
Tested in KDevelop. Have "open new folders in tabs" feature enabled.
Open several folders with Dolphin at once. Before this patch
there would be noticeable hanging. With this patch all tabs instantly open with
no hanging.

BUG: 408387
BUG: 408244
FIXED-IN: 19.08.0
Currently Dolphin only opens a new instance of itself in the following two scenarios:
1. No other Dolphin instances ( D21666 deals with not matching daemonized instances) are currently running.
2. A new instance is explicitly asked for via: `dolphin --new-window`
A third scenario is needed to fix this bug:
3. If no URLs are passed in as arguments then open a new instance.
This patch adds this third scenario.
Test Plan:
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open Dolphin
2. Right-click on Dolphin's Task Manager Entry and click "Start New Instance"
3. A new instance is created.
As my system stuff is not built on master I am unable to replicate the bug (and can't confirm whether this fixes it), hence I'll rely on @ngraham to confirm whether this patch fixes the issue.

Summary:
FEATURE: 183429
FIXED-IN: 19.08.0
GUI: new cli argument --new-window
Externally called files/directories are opened in a a new tab of an instance of Dolphin that already exists. If any of the given URIs are already open in a tab, then those tabs are activated instead of a new tab being opened. If there is no instance then the files/directories are opened in a new window. The newly opened file/directory has its tab activated, and consequently, the window is also activated.
When the user clicks "Open In New Window" or "Detach Tab", the files/directories are opened in a new window.
Test Plan:
[Manual]
Before testing, set the default file manager in system settings as the newly built Dolphin executable.
One must also include the new dolphin executable in the $PATH, otherwise some functions will attempt to open the system dolphin instead of the new one.
Furthermore, running two different versions of Dolphin (in particular, where one does not have this patch included) can result in bugs appearing, in particular, new tabs not opening as old instances will not recognise the DBus commands sent to it. However, I see no reason why a user will have two different versions of Dolphin (apart from people like us :D).
Open directories with the help of auxillary programs (i.e. a browser). The files/directories should appear in a new window if an instance does not exist. If an existence already exists, then a new tab should be opened and activated in that instance and the window activated.
Use QDBusViewer to open folders/items by calling the ShowFolders/ShowItems methods in org.freedesktop.FileManager1 of the Dolphin instance.
When a user chooses to "Open In New Window"/"Detach Tab" then the files/directories should be opened in a new window.

Summary:
Prohibiting the use of Dolphin as the actual root user (not using `sudo` or `kdesu`) breaks legitimate use cases for using the root user. An example is Kali, a distro that logs in as the root user by default as a deliberate design choice.
In such an environment, there is no additional security vulnerability beyond what you're already potentially exposing yourself to. So, let's re-enable it.
BUG: 387974
FIXED-IN: 18.08.0
Test Plan:
- Log in as normal user and run `sudo dolphin`: you get an error message.
- Log in as normal user and run `kdesu dolphin`: you get an error message.
- Log in as the root user and run dolphin normally: it works.

dolphin is using
-DTRANSLATION_DOMAIN=\"dolphin\"
that is wrong for applications, apps need to use
KLocalizedString::setApplicationDomain
since that makes some other things like the transltators tab in the about
dialog show.
I have not removed -DTRANSLATION_DOMAIN=\"dolphin\" because on the other hand
this code is also a library (i.e. the dolphin kpart).
The "being pedandly correct" fix would be using -DTRANSLATION_DOMAIN=\"dolphin\"
only to compile the files that are part of the kpart but that's prone to
break at some point and using both KLocalizedString::setApplicationDomain and
-DTRANSLATION_DOMAIN does not create any problem so i went that route

* Instead of setting and resetting GeneralSettings's split view option, just pass it on to openFiles/openDirectories.
* Require at least one url in openFiles/openDirectories
REVIEW: 123395
The port of Dolphin to categorized logging created errors in one
specific point only, in main.cpp:
undefined reference to `DolphinDebug()'
I couldn't spot any obvious error, so for now I did it the bad way
(warnings should not be commented out!) to keep it building while a
real solution is found.
CCMAIL: emmanuelpescosta099@gmail.com
Since the KF5 libraries and the applications will not have a
synchronized release schedule any more, it does not make sense to
continue using KDE_VERSION_STRING as the Dolphin version.
This does not work properly yet, there are probably quite a few bad signal/
slot connections due to KUrl -> QUrl. However dolphin starts without
crashing.
Accessibility is not ported since that changed quite a lot from Qt4 -> Qt5
and I have no idea how it is supposed to be used.
This is the first commit for review 117395
This has some advantages:
(a) The version actually changes for every bug fix release, making it
easier to find out which version a bug reporter has used.
(b) No changes in Dolphin's source code are required to keep the version
always up to date.
(c) It is more transparent for users because there are not two different
versions any more.
