## Summary of the Pull Request
Upgrade the Windows SDK to 19041 by setting `WindowsTargetPlatformMinVersion` to 17763 and `WindowsTargetPlatformVersion` to 19041.
## PR Checklist
* [x] I work here
* [x] Tests added/passed
## Validation Steps Performed
General usage of the Windows Terminal application appears fine.
This adds [`XamlStyler.Console`] to our solution, and calls it when we
format the code, to also format
our .xaml files.
* `XamlStyler.Console` is a dotnet tool so it needs to be restored with
`dotnet tool restore`
* I've added a set of rules to approximately follow [@cmaneu's XAML guidelines].
Those guidelines also recommend things based on the code-behind, which
this tool can't figure out, but also _don't matter that much_.
* There's an extra step to strip BOMs from the output, since Xaml Styler
adds a BOM by default. Some had them before and others didn't. BOMs
have been nothing but trouble though.

**BE NOT AFRAID**. I know that there's 107 files in this PR, but almost
all of it is just find/replacing `TerminalControl` with `Control`.
This is the start of the work to move TermControl into multiple pieces,
for #5000. The PR starts this work by:
* Splits `TerminalControl` into separate lib and dll projects. We'll
want control tests in the future, and for that, we'll need a lib.
* Moves `ICoreSettings` back into the `Microsoft.Terminal.Core`
namespace. We'll have other types in there soon too.
* I could not tell you why this works suddenly. New VS versions? New
cppwinrt version? Maybe we're just better at dealing with mdmerge
bugs these days.
* RENAMES `Microsoft.Terminal.TerminalControl` to
`Microsoft.Terminal.Control`. This touches pretty much every file in
the sln. Sorry about that (not sorry).
An upcoming PR will move much of the logic in TermControl into a new
`ControlCore` class that we'll add in `Microsoft.Terminal.Core`.
`ControlCore` will then be unittest-able in the
`UnitTests_TerminalCore`, which will help prevent regressions like #9455
## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments
You're really gonna want to clean the sln first, then merge this into
your branch, then rebuild. It's very likely that old winmds will get
left behind. If you see something like
```
Error MDM2007 Cannot create type
Microsoft.Terminal.TerminalControl.KeyModifiers in read-only metadata
file Microsoft.Terminal.TerminalControl.
```
then that's what happened to you.
This commit is in support of WTU.
I initially added support for a new flag, `PSEUDOCONSOLE_UNDOCKED_PREFER_INBOX_CONHOST`,
which I liked because it was more explicit. We chose not to go that route.
### Automatic fallback
#### Pros
* It's easier on the consumer
* We can eventually expand it to support `$ARCH/openconsole.exe`
#### Cons
* Packaging the project wrong will result in a working-but-somewhat-broken experience (old conhost)
* We ameliorated this by checking it in the packaging script.
* Implicit behavior may be bad
Use the Helix testing orchestration framework to run our Terminal LocalTests and Console Host UIA tests.
## References
#### Creates the following new issues:
- #7281 - re-enable local tests that were disabled to turn on Helix
- #7282 - re-enable UIA tests that were disabled to turn on Helix
- #7286 - investigate and implement appropriate compromise solution to how Skipped is handled by MUX Helix scripts
#### Consumes from:
- #7164 - The update to TAEF includes wttlog.dll. The WTT logs are what MUX's Helix scripts use to track the run state, convert to XUnit format, and notify both Helix and AzDO of what's going on.
#### Produces for:
- #671 - Making Terminal UIA tests is now possible
- #6963 - MUX's Helix scripts are already ready to capture PGO data on the Helix machines as certain tests run. Presuming we can author some reasonable scenarios, turning on the Helix environment gets us a good way toward automated PGO.
#### Related:
- #4490 - We lost the AzDO integration of our test data when I moved from the TAEF/VSTest adapter directly back to TE. Thanks to the WTTLog + Helix conversion scripts to XUnit + new upload phase, we have it back!

## Detailed Description of the Pull Request / Additional comments
We have had two classes of tests that don't work in our usual build-machine testing environment:
1. Tests that require interactive UI automation or input injection (a.k.a. require a logged in user)
2. Tests that require the entire Windows Terminal to stand up (because our Xaml Islands dependency requires 1903 or later and the Windows Server instance for the build is based on 1809.)
The Helix testing environment solves both of these and is brought to us by our friends over in https://github.com/microsoft/microsoft-ui-xaml.
This PR takes a large portion of scripts and pipeline configuration steps from the Microsoft-UI-XAML repository and adjusts them for Terminal needs.
You can see the source of most of the files in either https://github.com/microsoft/microsoft-ui-xaml/tree/master/build/Helix or https://github.com/microsoft/microsoft-ui-xaml/tree/master/build/AzurePipelinesTemplates
Some of the modifications in the files include (but are not limited to) reasons like:
- Our test binaries are named differently than MUX's test binaries
- We don't need certain types of testing that MUX does.
- We use C++ and C# tests while MUX was using only C# tests (so the naming pattern and some of the parsing of those names is different e.g. :: separators in C++ and . separators in C#)
- Our pipeline phases work a bit differently than MUX and/or we need significantly fewer pieces to the testing matrix (like we don't test a wide variety of OS versions).
The build now runs in a few stages:
1. The usual build and run of unit tests/feature tests, packaging verification, and whatnot. This phase now also picks up and packs anything required for running tests in Helix into an artifact. (It also unifies the artifact name between the things Helix needs and the existing build outputs into the single `drop` artifact to make life a little easier.)
2. The Helix preparation build runs that picks up those artifacts, generates all the scripts required for Helix to understand the test modules/functions from our existing TAEF tests, packs it all up, and queues it on the Helix pool.
3. Helix generates a VM for our testing environment and runs all the TAEF tests that require it. The orchestrator at helix.dot.net watches over this and tracks the success/fail and progress of each module and function. The scripts from our MUX friends handle installing dependencies, making the system quiet for better reliability, detecting flaky tests and rerunning them, and coordinating all the log uploads (including for the subruns of tests that are re-run.)
4. A final build phase is run to look through the results with the Helix API and clean up the marking of tests that are flaky, link all the screenshots and console output logs into the AzDO tests panel, and other such niceities.
We are set to run Helix tests on the Feature test policy of only x64 for now.
Additionally, because the set up of the Helix VMs takes so long, we are *NOT* running these in PR trigger right now as I believe we all very much value our 15ish minute PR turnaround (and the VM takes another 15 minutes to just get going for whatever reason.) For now, they will only run as a rolling build on master after PRs are merged. We should still know when there's an issue within about an hour of something merging and multiple PRs merging fast will be done on the rolling build as a batch run (not one per).
In addition to setting up the entire Helix testing pipeline for the tests that require it, I've preserved our classic way of running unit and feature tests (that don't require an elaborate environment) directly on the build machines. But with one bonus feature... They now use some of the scripts from MUX to transform their log data and report it to AzDO so it shows up beautifully in the build report. (We used to have this before I removed the MStest/VStest wrapper for performance reasons, but now we can have reporting AND performance!) See https://dev.azure.com/ms/terminal/_build/results?buildId=101654&view=ms.vss-test-web.build-test-results-tab for an example.
I explored running all of the tests on Helix but.... the Helix setup time is long and the resources are more expensive. I felt it was better to preserve the "quick signal" by continuing to run these directly on the build machine (and skipping the more expensive/slow Helix setup if they fail.) It also works well with the split between PR builds not running Helix and the rolling build running Helix. PR builds will get a good chunk of tests for a quick turn around and the rolling build will finish the more thorough job a bit more slowly.
## Validation Steps Performed
- [x] Ran the updated pipelines with Pull Request configuration ensuring that Helix tests don't run in the usual CI
- [x] Ran with simulation of the rolling build to ensure that the tests now running in Helix will pass. All failures marked for follow on in reference issues.
Due to a shell limitation, Ctrl+Shift+Enter will not launch Windows
Terminal as Administrator. This is caused by the app execution alias and
the actual targeted executable not having the same name.
In addition, PowerShell has an issue detecting app execution aliases as
GUI/TUI applications. When you run wt from PowerShell, the shell will
wait for WT to exit before returning to the prompt. Having a shim that
immediately re-executes WindowsTerminal and then returns handily knocks
this issue out (as the process that PS was waiting for exits
immediately.)
This could cause a regression for anybody who tries to capture the PID
of wt.exe. Our process tree is not an API, and we have offered no
consistency guarantee on it.
VALIDATION
----------
Tested manual launch in a number of different scenarios:
* [x] start menu "wtd"
* [x] start menu tile
* [x] powertoys run
* [x] powertoys run ctrl+shift (admin)
* [x] powershell inbox, "core"
* [x] cmd
* [x] run dialog
* [x] run dialog ctrl+shift (admin)
* [x] run from a lnk with window mode=maximized
Fixes#4645 (PowerShell waits for wt)
Fixes#6625 (Can't launch as admin using C-S-enter)
This commit introduces a NOTICE.html file that will be embedded into the
package. It will be stamped down with the real notices during a branded
release build (as part of the build pipeline.)
It, in part, reverts some of the really good work in determining the
commit hash at build time. That work will be preserved in history.
This is more compliant with our duties to the OSS we consume.
For our release builds, we're just going to integrate the UWPDesktop CRT
into our package and delete the package dependencies. It's very
difficult for users who do not have access to the store to get our
dependency packages, and we want to be robust and deployable everywhere.
Since these libraries can be redistributed, it's easiest if we simply
redistribute them.
Our package grows by ~550kb per architecture (compressed) because of
this. I've added validation that we don't have both the libs _and_ the
dependencies in the same package.
Fixes#3097.
## Validation
The script does it!
Moves the tests from using the `vstest.console.exe` route to just using `te.exe`.
PROs:
- `te.exe` is significantly faster for running tests because the TAEF/VSTest adapter isn't great.
- Running through `te.exe` is closer to what our developers are doing on their dev boxes
- `te.exe` is how they run in the Windows gates.
- `te.exe` doesn't seem to have the sporadic `0x6` error code thrown during the tests where somehow the console handles get lost
- `te.exe` doesn't seem to repro the other intermittent issues that we have been having that are inscrutable.
- Fewer processes in the tree (te is running anyway under `vstest.console.exe`, just indirected a lot
- The log outputs scroll live with all our logging messages instead of suppressing everything until there's a failure
- The log output is actually in the order things are happening versus vstest.
CONs:
- No more code coverage.
- No more test records in the ADO build/test panel.
- Tests really won't work inside Visual Studio at all.
- The log files are really big now
- Testing is not a test task anymore, just another script.
Refuting each CON:
- We didn't read the code coverage numbers
- We didn't look at the ADO test panel results or build-over-build velocities
- Tests didn't really work inside Visual Studio anyway unless you did the right incantations under the full moon.
- We could tone down the logging if we wanted at either the te.exe execution time (with a switch) or by declaring properties in the tests/classes/modules that are very verbose to not log unless it fails.
- I don't think anyone cares how they get run as long as they do.
This new cpprestsdk package, 2.10.14, switches us to the app CRT.
cpprestsdk turns fof a bunch of boost and openssl dependencies when it's
built for the Windows Store subplatform, so we got a bunch of stuff for
free.
Incidentally, I fixed#2338 the real/correct way -- the build rules in
the package now make sure they're not using the system vcpkg root.
* Change to use App CRT in preparation for universal.
* Try to make project build again by setting winconpty to static lib so it'll use the CRT inside TerminalConnection (or its other consumers) instead of linking its own.
* Remove test for conpty dll, it's a lib now. Add additional commentary on how CRT linking works for future reference. I'm sure this will come up again.
* use the _apiset variant until proven otherwise to match the existing one.
* Clarification in the comments for linking.
This commit deletes ConhostConnection and replaces it with
ConptyConnection. The ConptyConnection uses CreatePseudoConsole and
depends on winconpty to override the one from kernel32.
* winconpty must be packageable, so I've added GetPackagingOutputs.
* To validate this, I added conpty.dll to the MSIX regression script.
* I moved the code from conpty-universal that deals with environment
strings into the types library.
This puts us in a way better place to implement #2563, as we can now
separately detect a failure to launch a pseudoconsole, a failure to
CreateProcess, and an unexpected termination of the launched process.
Fixes#1131.
* Revert "Add source linking information during the build (#2857)"
This reverts commit 6b728cd6d0.
* Need reference to renderer base inside UnitTests_TerminalCore
* add dependency for TerminalControl to Types project.
* Set build to single threaded as parallel build is broken by 16.3 build toolchain.
* Disable new rule C26814 as it's breaking builds
Wrote a follow up task #2941 to roll it out later.
* Add noexcept to dx header.
Copies source linking scripts and processes from Microsoft/Microsoft-UI-XAML. This embeds source information inside the PDBs in two formats: One for WinDBG using a PowerShell script that runs during the build, and one for Visual Studio using the Microsoft.SourceLink.GitHub NuGet pacakge. Sources are automatically pulled from raw.githubusercontent.com when debugging a release build inside either of these utilities as of this change.
