fix(HttpClient): take Uri by value in request() to prevent dangling reference

The coroutine suspends at co_await, so a const-ref to a temporary Uri would dangle. Take by value like the download() overloads already do.
fix(ZoomIt): replace utils::async_task with wil::task in CaptureScreenshotAsync

Gordon Lam	13cc6fd13e	Update src/modules/ZoomIt/ZoomIt/Zoomit.cpp Co-authored-by: Copilot <175728472+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com>	2026-02-11 18:15:02 +08:00
Gordon Lam (SH)	eedc6ceccc	Replace custom utils::async_task with wil::task - Delete src/common/utils/async_task.h (custom coroutine type) - Use wil::task<T> from wil/coroutine.h (WIL already a dependency) - wil::task provides WaitOnAddress-based .get(), co_await support, COM error preservation, and apartment awareness - Add #include <wil/coroutine.h> to pch.h files (updating, runner) - Update callers to std::move(task).get() (wil::task::get is &&-qualified) - Remove AsyncTask.Tests.cpp (no need to test third-party wil::task)	2026-02-11 17:55:59 +08:00
Gordon Lam (SH)	3b53810727	fix(async_task): fix use-after-free race and add unit tests Fix a race condition in final_awaiter::await_suspend where p.ready.release() allows the .get() caller to destroy the coroutine frame while await_suspend is still accessing p.continuation. Fix by saving continuation to a local variable before releasing the semaphore. Add 13 unit tests covering: - Immediate co_return with .get() (int, string, zero, negative) - Exception propagation from coroutine body - Delayed completion on a background thread (via thread_delay_awaitable) - co_await chaining (async_task awaiting async_task, both immediate and delayed) - Move-only return types - Move construction and move assignment of async_task - .get() called from a worker thread - Multiple independent tasks Tests use a pure C++20 thread_delay_awaitable instead of WinRT resume_after to avoid WinRT apartment dependencies in the test DLL.	2026-02-11 14:19:22 +08:00
Gordon Lam (SH)	b1f933c0b3	fix(updating): revert accidental filename pattern change and improve async_task - Revert INSTALLER_FILENAME_PATTERN_USER back to 'powertoysusersetup' (was accidentally changed to 'powertoyssetup-user' which would break installer asset matching on GitHub releases) - Replace busy-wait spin loop in async_task::get() with std::binary_semaphore for efficient blocking - Add operator co_await() so async_task can be awaited by other coroutines, not just consumed synchronously via .get() - Add trailing newline to updating.h	2026-02-11 13:23:46 +08:00
Gordon Lam (SH)	876b03595f	refactor: address review comments - use async_task<T>, fix deref-before-check, fix coroutine param lifetimes Address all 5 Copilot review comments on PR #45522: 1. updating.h/cpp: Replace IAsyncAction + out-parameter pattern with new utils::async_task<T> that supports co_return of arbitrary (non-WinRT) types. IAsyncOperation<T> cannot be used because github_version_result and std::optional<fs::path> are not WinRT-projected types. 2. PowerToys.Update.cpp: Fix undefined behavior where *new_version_info was dereferenced before checking if the expected had a value. Now checks !new_version_info first. 3. Zoomit.cpp: Same IAsyncAction -> async_task<com_ptr<ID3D11Texture2D>> conversion, eliminating the fragile out-parameter pattern. 4. HttpClient.h download(): Change dstFilePath and progressUpdateCallback from const reference to value parameters to prevent dangling references after coroutine suspension. 5. HttpClient.h: Add missing #include <string> (was transitively included via <future> which was removed).	2026-02-11 11:11:24 +08:00
Gordon Lam (SH)	2f829a0a15	docs: add IAsyncAction out-parameter contract comments and fix trailing newline Address PR review findings: - Add documentation comments explaining the caller contract for IAsyncAction functions that use out-parameter references (updating.h, Zoomit.cpp) - Fix missing trailing newline in installer.h	2026-02-11 10:23:15 +08:00
Gordon Lam (SH)	ac1a551605	refactor(updating): make get_github_version_info_async and download_new_version_async true coroutines Both functions now return IAsyncAction and use co_await internally instead of blocking with .get(). Output is returned via reference parameters since std::expected and std::optional<path> are not WinRT-projectable types. Sync callers block at the call site with .get(), while future async callers can co_await these functions directly.	2026-02-11 07:51:11 +08:00
