Max size constraints can be NULL.

Use a tab BReference as argument in Area::Set{Left, Top, Right, Bottom}.
Using a normal pointer is dangerous when creating a new tab directly in the method call because the tab gets deleted to early.

Use soft inequality constraints for the max area size.

Only if the alignment is set to use the full width/ height a hard inequality constraint is used.

Archive more details about areas in BALMLayout.

Minimize the effect invisible items have on a BALMLayout.

There seems to still be some effect on positioning, but invisible items
no longer constrain the layout.

Make BALMLayout respect its position when nested.

Remove BALM::Area::fConstraints field, which is not needed.

It's easier to just delete all the constraints in the dtor, the ones that
wouldn't have been in fConstraints are NULL at this point anyway.

In BALM::Area rename fTopLeftInset to fLeftTopInset.

This is consistent with for instance, the BSize ctor.

Fix spacing before first header in src/libs/alm.

Also add copyright header in ALMGroup.cpp.

Rename BALM::GroupItem to BALM::ALMGroup, and move it to its own files.

Also make ALMGroup totally self-contained, i.e. BALMLayout no longer
does the parsing, and is completely unaware of ALMGroup. A small touch
of refactoring as well.

Style cleanup in alm: mostly clean includes.

Make Area insets more consistent with other HAIKU inset APIs.

In Area, remove unused ItemFrame() method.

Also modify Frame() method to return a rect with rounded coordinates.

In BALMLayout, allow for more flexibility in spacing and insets.

* allow for independent left, top, right and bottom insets
* allow for independent vertical and horizontal spacing between tabs
* allow for the usage of Haiku's spacing constants such as B_USE_WINDOW_INSETS

Give the area an id.

Make tabs BReferenceable. Maintain a list of tabs.

Fix a bug in RowColumnManager when adding / removing views to / from a layout.

Add an alternative solver to lp_solve. The solver based on Ingo's active set solver but is able to handle arbitrary hard and soft constraints. The advantage to lp_solve is that the active set solver can optimize variable in respect to a quadratic objective function. This makes it possible to minimise the quadratic derivation to a desired value e.g. \Sum_i(x_i - x_{i,pref})^2 -> min.

The solver part has been refactored in this way that both solver can be used with the same layout specifications. The active set solver is default now; the performance is not as good as lp_solve, though.

- Add a alternative method to setup a group layout. BLayoutItem / BView are wrapped into a GroupItem. GroupItem overloads the | (horizontal tiling) and / (vertical tiling) operators. In this manner you can create a group layout using these operators, e.g. GroupItem item = GroupItem(button1) | (GroupItem(button2) / GroupItem(button3)); would layout button1 at the left and button2 and button3 at the right in a vertical layout. All the layout information is stored in the GroupItem item, to setup the final layout you have to call BuildLayout(item). If you like it it could also be added to the BGroupLayout.
- Add operator test app.

First step to make the ALM layout engine more compatible with the haiku layout API. Many stuff was/is managed by ALM which could and should be done by the standard layout facilities.

Encapsulate the solver in the ALM layout class.

- Hide constraint header in Area file.
- Start to replace BList with BObjectList.

* Simplified and optimized a lot the "ToString()" debugging facilities.
* *::Index() is now const, thanks to the BList improvements.

* Applied a patch by Christof Lutteroth that updates ALM, and brings new test
apps.

ALM/linprog patch by Christof Lutteroth:
* Got rid of class ObjFunctionSummand. Both the constraint summands and
the objective function summands are now stored using class Summand.
* Some method names are more BeOS compliant now: SetX instead of ChangeX.
* linprog test code now uses new AddConstraint methods.
* CalculateMinSize and CalculateMaxSize did not free the memory they
allocated.
* Removed inappropriate setter and getter methods.
* Memory allocated in class Constraint is freed now.
* Other small changes.

Patch by Christof Lutteroth:
* copyright headers for the files of the libraries linprog and alm
* new class Summand for representing summands in a linear constraint
* merged class SoftConstraint into class Constraint; Constraint now
supports both soft and hard constraint functionality
* new AddConstraint methods in class LinearSpec for directly setting
constraints with 1 to 4 summands
* code cleanups by using aforementioned AddConstraint methods
* a new very simple test application for alm
* some style corrections

fix gcc4 build

Added libalm.so and its dependency liblinprog.so. libalm.so provides a
BLayout implementation (BALMLayout) using the Auckland Layout Model
(ALM). The original ALM was implemented by Christof Lutteroth, the
Haiku/C++ version by James Kim.
The code needs some review, but the test programs seem to work fine.
