It may be 2015, but users still stumble upon the occasional .desktop
file that uses a filename encoding other than UTF-8. We currently
fail quite spectacularly in that case by not displaying any apps at
all - handle this case more gracefully, by only filtering out the
offending apps.

When the last interesting window of an app-backed window is removed,
we'll transition it back to STOPPED, but we transition the state and
send out the signal before we clear the running state.
This means that any listeners to the state-changed signal might
encounter a window-backed app that has a running state, but no
windows. If they call, e.g. shell_app_get_name, while in this state,
they'll encounter an assertion fail.
Apps that are starting might have uninteresting windows like splash
screens pop up and then go away (like LibreOffice), even when
startup-notification hasn't completed yet. In those cases, we don't
want to transition the app back to stopped -- it should remain in
the running state.
Our StartUpWMClass heuristics use a StartupWMClass -> .desktop ID
mapping built from the list of all installed applications. In case
of multiple .desktop files setting the same StartupWMClass, we
currently simply pick the last one returned by g_app_info_get_all (),
which can be a bit surprising:
A window with WM_CLASS 'emacs', launched through a .desktop file
named 'emacs.desktop' with a StartupWMClass of 'emacs' maps to ...
'emacsclient.desktop'!
Make this case a bit less random by preferring the app info whose
ID matches the StartupWMClass.

libcaribou was designed to generate X events which works under wayland
sessions for X clients but obviously doesn't work for wayland clients
and for shell chrome.
This patch adds a simple caribou display adapter which inherits from
its X display adapter and allows us to continue to work for X clients
and at the same time makes the OSK work on shell text entries by
sending key events directly to the focused text actor.
Making the OSK work for wayland clients requires much bigger changes
at various levels in the stack and either not using libcaribou or
re-working it substantially so that's left for future work.

We currently don't have any code either in gnome-shell or
gnome-shell-extensions setting margins directly with the Clutter API.
On the other hand, the current behavior doesn't allow us to remove a

special casing seems like the right thing to do at this point.

The current code assumes that an embedded window will correspond to
a single MetaWindow over the entire lifetime of the icon, which is
incorrect - the embedded window is unmanaged on Unmap and a new
MetaWindow will be created the next time the embedded window is
mapped. As we currently ignore the new MetaWindow completely, it
will be shown normally in the scene instead of the embedded clone
as intended.
Fix this by setting up clone and window actor each time the embedded
window is mapped rather than once in shell_gtk_embed_set_window().

If users click outside the search entry while it's empty we reset and
thus give up key focus. This means that when using an input method
with candidate popups, interacting with the popup with a mouse click
cancels the current input method context if there's no other text in
the entry besides the preedit string.
To avoid this we can check if the entry has preedit in addition to
checking if it has normal text.

When it comes to keybindings or gestures, there's not really a good

The lookup table used by get_app_from_window_pid contained only pids of
apps launched by gnome-shell itself, but not pids of apps running before
gnome-shell was (re-)started. Also the pids in that table might not even
be the pid of the process that is actually showing the window if wrapper
scripts are used.
Instead use shell_window_tracker_get_app_from_pid which uses the pids
from the windows themselves.

Themes - namely the HighContrast one - may now request symbolic
icons rather than fullcolor ones. In order to have recoloring
work as expected in that case, we will need a theme node to pick
up colors from - using an StIcon instead of manually loading a

GTK+ added support for a -gtk-icon-style property in themes to
enforce a particular icon style. Do the same for shell themes

icon name (default)
'regular' - enforce fullcolor icons
'symbolic' - enforce symbolic icons

Using a separate property to show when the application is busy rather

The window actor shouldn't have been picked since it has an empty
input shape, but bugs in mutter weren't properly interpreting that.
Since the Wayland restructure, the MetaWindowActor isn't actually
reactive anymore, it's the MetaSurfaceActorX11, so this code isn't
doing anything.
It's implemented similar to the padding property, but instead of taking
into account the margin values at drawing time in node-drawing, we set
the clutter actor margins in StWidget when the style is computed.
In the case that a CSS margin is not specified, we don't to set a value
of 0 to the clutter actor margin. In this manner it allows to use
Clutter margin values set in the code. However, the margins that are set
both in the code and in the CSS on the same side, the result is
unpredictable.
We avoid to set the clutter actor margin values to 0 if there's no CSS
margin values defined, so we still allow clutter actors to use margin
set in the code.

We commonly mark strftime format strings for translation to account
for date/time representations without an existing strftime shortcut
("Yesterday %H%p"). As those translations are looked up according to
the locale defined by LC_MESSAGES, while the conversion characters
themselves are resolved according to LC_TIME, the result can be
rather odd when mixing locales ("Den 27. January"). The correct
solution would be to install translations for format strings in
the LC_TIME catalogue and look them up with dcgettext(), but we
don't have the infrastructure to do that easily. Work around this
by adding a helper method that looks up a string in LC_MESSAGES
using the locale defined by LC_TIME and use that to translate
format strings, which has the same result.

Wayland applications don't tend to have very useful WM Class properties,
as GTK+ isn't very good at picking an appropriate application ID. While
we should likely fix GTK+ to pick a better app ID, we do have the
existing gtk_shell for more accurate information. The only problem is
that the gtk_surface is set after the MetaWindow is constructed, and
we're not listening for changes on the GTK+ application ID.
Listen to changes on the GTK+ application ID to fix app tracking for
most GTK+ applications under Wayland.

It's useful to know how long frames are taking to render on the GPU.
This is impossible to measure in the normal case because frames may

Commit 6c2f3d1d17 moved pref overrides into JS to implement
session mode specific overrides in a clean and generic way.
However that approach comes with a cost - doing the overrides only
after having handled over control to JS means that the core will
be initialized with the non-overridden settings before changing
to the correct values. In the best case this is unnecessary work,
but it can in fact have a worse effect: when initializing workspaces,
we will restore the previous number of workspaces when using
dynamic-workspaces and reset to the configured number otherwise.
As the non-overridden default for dynamic-workspaces is FALSE, we
can easily end up moving the user's windows to the "wrong" workspace.
Now GSettings is expected to grow support for session specific defaults,
which will render our entire override system obsolete (yay!). Given
that, it seems acceptable to use a less generic (and uglier) approach
in the meanwhile, in order to fix aforementioned problems. So move
overrides back before core initialization and just hardcode the
session-mode => override-schema relation.

clutter_device_manager_get_core_device calls XIGetClientPointer, which
requires a round-trip to the server. Since we do this on StWidget

Replace this with get_device with the ID of the VCP/VCK, since mutter
doesn't support MPX, and we know this is what the device is.
If the sprite is NULL, like if a Wayland app wanted to hide the cursor,

If gdk_screen_get_setting fails, like if it's running without XSettings,

So far we have assumed that whether or not a window is interesting
is static. In general this is the case, but as it is legal for the
underlying properties to change at any time, there are of course
offenders that actually do this (flash I'm looking at ya).
While we used the property to determine whether a window should be
tracked or not, the worst case was showing windows that should be
hidden or missing windows that should be shown.
However as we nowadays base an app's running state on the number of
interesting windows, we need to be more careful in order to avoid
ending up with running apps with no windows.

With the lastest ShellApp changes, an app is considered stopped
when the last "interesting" window is closed. However the app
may still track non-interesting windows, so if we unref the
running state on the state transition, we hit an assertion later-on
when trying to remove the non-interesting window.
Fix this by keeping the running state around until the last window
is closed.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=722840
An app should be considered running if it has at least one "interesting"
window, however the code considers an app running if it has at least
one tracked window. This was fine while we were only tracking interesting
windows, but since commit d21aa0d85f this is no longer the case.
So keep track of the number of interesting windows as well and use that
to determine the running state.

It is possible to associate an application's window with a different

get_secrets_keyring_cb() contained an optimization (copied over from
nm-applet) that avoided a D-Bus round-trip when NetworkManager sent
secrets hints that were not satisified by the user. This code did
not properly handle empty hints though, and proceeded to always
request new secrets whenever empty hints were sent. Remove this
code entirely since the complexity is not worth it (per Jasper).
Second, get_secrets_keyring_cb() was mishandling VPN secrets which
were marked as "always ask". Because the VPN secrets are not GObject
properties because they cannot be pre-defined, they are passed in
a hash table that is a GObject property marked 'secret'. Unfortunately,
that means that the shell agent cannot determine their secret flags.
But since the VPN plugin auth dialogs have much better information
about what's required than the shell agent does, always ask the VPN
auth dialogs to handle the secrets requests after grabbing any that
already exist from the keyring. This is also what nm-applet does.

like the last time the application was used, wrong.
Just track all windows and filter out non-interesting windows manually
in the one place we actually care about the difference.

Sorting actors by the distance in the axis of movement first and against
the axis otherwise means that if we have a situation like:
A F
B
where "F" is the focused actor, and it slightly overlaps with B vertically,
then we'll choose "B" to go left, rather than "A", which is most likely
what the user intended.
This is especially apparent in the overview where slight window size
differences mean we might not get an exact grid shape.

Rather than scanning all apps for searching, use Ryan's new desktop
file index and the glib support APIs for app searching instead of our
own system.

While unfortunate that we still have to scan all apps with get_all(),
support for this feature will be short-lived, so hopefully we can drop
it in the future as new apps adapt to the desktop file / app ID
recommendations.
For now, simply scan all desktop IDs.

Systemd-for-the-user-session would also do this, but that's a deeply
invasive change that I may not actually get to this cycle. This
change is tiny and non-invasive, but provides an important benefit:
You can actually reliably tell *which* applications are logging which
messages (assuming they're launched by the shell).
This actually complements a recent change in DBus:
See https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=68559
which does a similar thing for bus activated apps.

Rather than create all ShellApps up-front, create them lazily. We really
had no reason to do this before as we were scanning GMenu to get all the
apps, but doing this can remove a need for get_all, which is slow and
memory-hungry.
We want to transition to a system in the future where we have a desktop
file cache. As we no longer differentiate categories or similar, it no
longer makes sense to have app visibility based on categories. Thus,
we no longer need to use gnome-menus to list all apps. The potential
issue here is reloading all desktop files when new files are created,
but this can be dealt with individually.
The "All Applications" view still uses gnome-menus.

Since appDisplay.js makes its own GMenu tree, it's not necessary
anymore. This does mean that searches will show apps in NoDisplay
categories, but that's an obscure enough edge case not to matter.

This does remove support for legacy prefixed app infos with
subdirs, but since we want to remove support for the menu spec,
let's not even bother.
