ADFA-2717

New file on a src/<sourceSet>/cpp folder now opens a C/C++ dialog: C or C++, then Source, Header or Class (C++ only). Headers get an include guard; Class creates Name.h declaring the class and Name.cpp including it. Existing files are not overwritten.

  • The dialog's long-press help uses a new tag, project.folder.newnative, which needs a documentation.db row; until then it shows nothing.
  • Font scale 2.0 not yet checked on device.

New file on a src/<sourceSet>/cpp folder now asks for C or C++ and for
Source, Header or Class (C++ only), instead of a bare name prompt.
Headers get an include guard; a class creates Name.h declaring it and
Name.cpp including it. Existing files are never overwritten.

📝 Summary
  • Add a C/C++ file dialog for folders under src/<sourceSet>/cpp. The dialog supports C and C++ source and header files, C++ classes, and files with custom names.
  • Generate headers with #pragma once. For C++ classes, create a header with the class declaration and a source file that includes the header.
  • Validate names by file type and enforce the filename length limit. Create files without overwriting existing files; remove files already created in the batch if a later write fails.
  • Keep Java source folders routed to the existing Java class dialog. Refresh the affected file tree after successful creation.
  • Add tests for dialog routing, name validation, generated files, and batch-write behavior.
  • Risk: Device validation at font scale 2.0 has not been reported. The dialog’s long-press help may require a documentation.db entry for the project.folder.newnative tag.
  • Review finding counts and test execution results were not supplied.

Walkthrough

The change adds native C/C++ file creation for matching source directories. It provides name validation and file generation, writes batches without overwriting existing files, and refreshes the relevant file-tree node after successful creation.

Changes

Native file creation

Layer / File(s) Summary
Native file contracts and generation
app/src/main/java/com/itsaky/androidide/utils/NativeSourceBuilder.kt, app/src/test/java/com/itsaky/androidide/utils/NativeSourceBuilderTest.kt
NativeSourceBuilder validates names and generates source, header, class, and other files. Tests cover generated contents, extensions, and name limits.
Batch file creation
app/src/main/java/com/itsaky/androidide/actions/FileActionManager.kt, app/src/test/java/com/itsaky/androidide/actions/WriteNewFilesTest.kt
FileActionManager writes file batches with CREATE_NEW, creates parent directories, and attempts to remove files from a failed batch. Tests cover these behaviors.
Native dialog and file-tree integration
app/src/main/java/com/itsaky/androidide/actions/filetree/NewFileAction.kt, app/src/main/res/layout/layout_create_file_cpp.xml, resources/src/main/res/values/strings.xml, app/src/test/java/com/itsaky/androidide/actions/filetree/SourceDialogRoutingTest.kt
NewFileAction routes C/C++ and Java source directories to their dialogs. The native dialog gathers file options, validates the name, creates files, and refreshes the relevant tree node after success.

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to dc476

If a write fails partway, for example on a full disk, a truncated file can be left behind even though the user sees an error. This is a narrow edge case with a small fix, so it is worth fixing but not a serious merge risk.

Handle native dialog filesystem errors.

File.exists() can throw SecurityException, and the native click callback does not catch it. The preceding validation makes the stated NativeSourceBuilder.createFiles IllegalArgumentException path unreachable for normal input. FileActionManager.createFile already handles its own IllegalArgumentException and reports failures asynchronously.

Add the same cancellation-preserving handler used by createJavaClass around doCreateNativeSource.

@Daniel-ADFA Any folder under src/<set>/cpp now always opens the C/C++ dialog, so you can no longer create an arbitrary file there. FILE_NAME ([A-Za-z_][A-Za-z0-9_-]*) rejects dots and the dialog has no "Other" type, so CMakeLists.txt (which usually lives in this folder), .hpp, .cc, .S and .txt can't be created at all. Before this PR, createNewEmptyFile accepted any name. Suggest keeping a plain-file option (e.g. an "Other file" type that falls through to createNewEmptyFile).

@Daniel-ADFA This checks the 40-char limit against the full file name, extension included (Name.cpp), but the field's counterMaxLength="40" and the live validation only see the bare name. A 38-char name shows 38/40 with no error, then fails here with a generic "invalid name" after the dialog has already closed. Either count the extension in the counter and validation, or cap the bare name at 40 - extension length.

@Daniel-ADFA The positive button dismisses the dialog before doCreateNativeSource validates anything. An invalid name (e.g. native-lib with Class selected: the field shows an error but Create stays enabled), a too-long name or an existing file closes the dialog and throws away the language/type/name the user picked. Suggest disabling Create while the name is invalid, and/or overriding the button's click listener so the dialog stays open on failure.

@Daniel-ADFA A class is created as two independent async createFile calls, so it isn't atomic. If Name.h is written and Name.cpp fails, an orphan header is left behind and the user sees both a success toast and an error toast. On success, onActionSuccess runs twice, so there are two toasts and two collapse/expand cycles of the same node racing on currentNode. Suggest writing both files in one IO job and reporting a single result.

@Daniel-ADFA This existence check runs on the main thread, but the write happens later on Dispatchers.IO, and FileIOUtils.writeFileFromString overwrites without checking again. The "existing files are not overwritten" guarantee therefore only holds when nothing else creates the file in between: a double-tap, or a second create queued before the first write lands, can silently clobber the file. Suggest an atomic create-if-absent at write time (File.createNewFile() / CREATE_NEW).

@Daniel-ADFA isJava uses an unanchored find() on /.*/src/.*/java and is checked before isCpp (line 141), so a cpp subfolder whose path contains java (e.g. src/main/cpp/javabridge) opens the Kotlin/Java class dialog and creates a .kt/.java file in the native source tree. Suggest checking isCpp first or anchoring the Java regex to a whole /java path segment.

@Daniel-ADFA The header guard is derived only from the base name, with - mapped to _, so distinct headers can collide: native-lib.h and native_lib.h, or util.h in two subfolders, all get the same guard, and including both silently drops the second header's contents. A name with a leading underscore (e.g. _impl) produces _IMPL_H, an identifier reserved to the implementation (underscore + uppercase). Suggest #pragma once, or a guard that includes the relative path, a unique suffix, and no leading underscore.

@Daniel-ADFA CLAUDE.md requires verifying every new screen at font scale 1.0 and 2.0 and saying so in the PR, but the description says "Font scale 2.0 not yet checked on device." This dialog stacks button groups and a text field with no vertical scroll container (only a HorizontalScrollView), so at 2.0 the controls could clip or the Create button could be hidden when the keyboard is up.

@Daniel-ADFA These tests only cover the pure builder. The new rules in NewFileAction have no tests: the full-name length limit, the no-overwrite existence check, and cpp path routing via CPP_PATH_REGEX (including the isJava/isCpp ordering). The PR description claims the no-overwrite behaviour, but nothing pins it, so reordering the checks or dropping the exists() guard would fail silently. Suggest extracting the routing and validation into testable functions and covering them.

- Add an Other type so any file (CMakeLists.txt, .hpp) can still be
  created in a cpp folder.
- Size the name counter and validation to the full file name, extension
  included.
- Keep the dialog open until the write succeeds: Create is disabled
  while the name is invalid, and an existing file shows on the field.
- Write all files in one IO job with CREATE_NEW, removing any already
  written if one fails, and report a single result.
- Route cpp folders before java ones, so cpp/javabridge opens the
  native dialog.
- Generate headers with #pragma once instead of a name-derived guard.
- Use the existing new-file tooltip tag instead of an undocumented one.
- Let the dialog scroll vertically at large font scales.
- Cover routing, naming and length rules, and the atomic write in tests.

🗄️ Data Integrity & Integration | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Cleanup skips a target that was created but only partly written.

Files.write with CREATE_NEW creates the file first and then writes the bytes. If the write fails after the create step (for example, IOException on a full disk), the target is never added to created. The catch block then does not delete it. This breaks the "no partial batch" behavior. The user gets a truncated file and sees an error.

Do not delete on FileAlreadyExistsException. In that case the file belongs to the user. For any other failure after the open step, delete the target.

Proposed fix
-			Files.write(target.toPath(), content.toByteArray(), StandardOpenOption.CREATE_NEW, StandardOpenOption.WRITE)
-			created += target
+			try {
+				Files.write(target.toPath(), content.toByteArray(), StandardOpenOption.CREATE_NEW, StandardOpenOption.WRITE)
+			} catch (e: java.nio.file.FileAlreadyExistsException) {
+				throw e
+			} catch (e: IOException) {
+				target.delete()
+				throw e
+			}
+			created += target

Based on learnings: record each created resource for rollback right after it is created, before any later step that can fail.
