cogl: improves header and coding style consistency We've had complaints that our Cogl code/headers are a bit "special" so this is a first pass at tidying things up by giving them some consistency. These changes are all consistent with how new code in Cogl is being written, but the style isn't consistently applied across all code yet. There are two parts to this patch; but since each one required a large amount of effort to maintain tidy indenting it made sense to combine the changes to reduce the time spent re indenting the same lines. The first change is to use a consistent style for declaring function prototypes in headers. Cogl headers now consistently use this style for prototypes: return_type cogl_function_name (CoglType arg0, CoglType arg1); Not everyone likes this style, but it seems that most of the currently active Cogl developers agree on it. The second change is to constrain the use of redundant glib data types in Cogl. Uses of gint, guint, gfloat, glong, gulong and gchar have all been replaced with int, unsigned int, float, long, unsigned long and char respectively. When talking about pixel data; use of guchar has been replaced with guint8, otherwise unsigned char can be used. The glib types that we continue to use for portability are gboolean, gint{8,16,32,64}, guint{8,16,32,64} and gsize. The general intention is that Cogl should look palatable to the widest range of C programmers including those outside the Gnome community so - especially for the public API - we want to minimize the number of foreign looking typedefs.

Add a strong CoglTexture type to replace CoglHandle As part of the on going, incremental effort to purge the non type safe CoglHandle type from the Cogl API this patch tackles most of the CoglHandle uses relating to textures. We'd postponed making this change for quite a while because we wanted to have a clearer understanding of how we wanted to evolve the texture APIs towards Cogl 2.0 before exposing type safety here which would be difficult to change later since it would imply breaking APIs. The basic idea that we are steering towards now is that CoglTexture can be considered to be the most primitive interface we have for any object representing a texture. The texture interface would provide roughly these methods: cogl_texture_get_width cogl_texture_get_height cogl_texture_can_repeat cogl_texture_can_mipmap cogl_texture_generate_mipmap; cogl_texture_get_format cogl_texture_set_region cogl_texture_get_region Besides the texture interface we will then start to expose types corresponding to specific texture types: CoglTexture2D, CoglTexture3D, CoglTexture2DSliced, CoglSubTexture, CoglAtlasTexture and CoglTexturePixmapX11. We will then also expose an interface for the high-level texture types we have (such as CoglTexture2DSlice, CoglSubTexture and CoglAtlasTexture) called CoglMetaTexture. CoglMetaTexture is an additional interface that lets you iterate a virtual region of a meta texture and get mappings of primitive textures to sub-regions of that virtual region. Internally we already have this kind of abstraction for dealing with sliced texture, sub-textures and atlas textures in a consistent way, so this will just make that abstraction public. The aim here is to clarify that there is a difference between primitive textures (CoglTexture2D/3D) and some of the other high-level textures, and also enable developers to implement primitives that can support meta textures since they can only be used with the cogl_rectangle API currently. The thing that's not so clean-cut with this are the texture constructors we have currently; such as cogl_texture_new_from_file which no longer make sense when CoglTexture is considered to be an interface. These will basically just become convenient factory functions and it's just a bit unusual that they are within the cogl_texture namespace. It's worth noting here that all the texture type APIs will also have their own type specific constructors so these functions will only be used for the convenience of being able to create a texture without really wanting to know the details of what type of texture you need. Longer term for 2.0 we may come up with replacement names for these factory functions or the other thing we are considering is designing some asynchronous factory functions instead since it's so often detrimental to application performance to be blocked waiting for a texture to be uploaded to the GPU.

#define COGL_TEXTURE(X) ((CoglTexture *)X)
[cogl] Remove max_waste argument from Texture ctors The CoglTexture constructors expose the "max-waste" argument for controlling the maximum amount of wasted areas for slicing or, if set to -1, disables slicing. Slicing is really relevant only for large images that are never repeated, so it's a useful feature only in controlled use cases. Specifying the amount of wasted area is, on the other hand, just a way to mess up this feature; 99% the times, you either pull this number out of thin air, hoping it's right, or you try to do the right thing and you choose the wrong number anyway. Instead, we can use the CoglTextureFlags to control whether the texture should not be sliced (useful for Clutter-GST and for the texture-from-pixmap actors) and provide a reasonable value for enabling the slicing ourself. At some point, we might even provide a way to change the default at compile time or at run time, for particular platforms. Since max_waste is gone, the :tile-waste property of ClutterTexture becomes read-only, and it proxies the cogl_texture_get_max_waste() function. Inside Clutter, the only cases where the max_waste argument was not set to -1 are in the Pango glyph cache (which is a POT texture anyway) and inside the test cases where we want to force slicing; for the latter we can create larger textures that will be bigger than the threshold we set.

We'd postponed making this change for quite a while because we wanted to have a clearer understanding of how we wanted to evolve the texture APIs towards Cogl 2.0 before exposing type safety here which would be difficult to change later since it would imply breaking APIs. The basic idea that we are steering towards now is that CoglTexture can be considered to be the most primitive interface we have for any object representing a texture. The texture interface would provide roughly these methods: cogl_texture_get_width cogl_texture_get_height cogl_texture_can_repeat cogl_texture_can_mipmap cogl_texture_generate_mipmap; cogl_texture_get_format cogl_texture_set_region cogl_texture_get_region Besides the texture interface we will then start to expose types corresponding to specific texture types: CoglTexture2D, CoglTexture3D, CoglTexture2DSliced, CoglSubTexture, CoglAtlasTexture and CoglTexturePixmapX11. We will then also expose an interface for the high-level texture types we have (such as CoglTexture2DSlice, CoglSubTexture and CoglAtlasTexture) called CoglMetaTexture. CoglMetaTexture is an additional interface that lets you iterate a virtual region of a meta texture and get mappings of primitive textures to sub-regions of that virtual region. Internally we already have this kind of abstraction for dealing with sliced texture, sub-textures and atlas textures in a consistent way, so this will just make that abstraction public. The aim here is to clarify that there is a difference between primitive textures (CoglTexture2D/3D) and some of the other high-level textures, and also enable developers to implement primitives that can support meta textures since they can only be used with the cogl_rectangle API currently. The thing that's not so clean-cut with this are the texture constructors we have currently; such as cogl_texture_new_from_file which no longer make sense when CoglTexture is considered to be an interface. These will basically just become convenient factory functions and it's just a bit unusual that they are within the cogl_texture namespace. It's worth noting here that all the texture type APIs will also have their own type specific constructors so these functions will only be used for the convenience of being able to create a texture without really wanting to know the details of what type of texture you need. Longer term for 2.0 we may come up with replacement names for these factory functions or the other thing we are considering is designing some asynchronous factory functions instead since it's so often detrimental to application performance to be blocked waiting for a texture to be uploaded to the GPU.

cogl: improves header and coding style consistency We've had complaints that our Cogl code/headers are a bit "special" so this is a first pass at tidying things up by giving them some consistency. These changes are all consistent with how new code in Cogl is being written, but the style isn't consistently applied across all code yet. There are two parts to this patch; but since each one required a large amount of effort to maintain tidy indenting it made sense to combine the changes to reduce the time spent re indenting the same lines. The first change is to use a consistent style for declaring function prototypes in headers. Cogl headers now consistently use this style for prototypes: return_type cogl_function_name (CoglType arg0, CoglType arg1); Not everyone likes this style, but it seems that most of the currently active Cogl developers agree on it. The second change is to constrain the use of redundant glib data types in Cogl. Uses of gint, guint, gfloat, glong, gulong and gchar have all been replaced with int, unsigned int, float, long, unsigned long and char respectively. When talking about pixel data; use of guchar has been replaced with guint8, otherwise unsigned char can be used. The glib types that we continue to use for portability are gboolean, gint{8,16,32,64}, guint{8,16,32,64} and gsize. The general intention is that Cogl should look palatable to the widest range of C programmers including those outside the Gnome community so - especially for the public API - we want to minimize the number of foreign looking typedefs.

Add a strong CoglTexture type to replace CoglHandle As part of the on going, incremental effort to purge the non type safe CoglHandle type from the Cogl API this patch tackles most of the CoglHandle uses relating to textures. We'd postponed making this change for quite a while because we wanted to have a clearer understanding of how we wanted to evolve the texture APIs towards Cogl 2.0 before exposing type safety here which would be difficult to change later since it would imply breaking APIs. The basic idea that we are steering towards now is that CoglTexture can be considered to be the most primitive interface we have for any object representing a texture. The texture interface would provide roughly these methods: cogl_texture_get_width cogl_texture_get_height cogl_texture_can_repeat cogl_texture_can_mipmap cogl_texture_generate_mipmap; cogl_texture_get_format cogl_texture_set_region cogl_texture_get_region Besides the texture interface we will then start to expose types corresponding to specific texture types: CoglTexture2D, CoglTexture3D, CoglTexture2DSliced, CoglSubTexture, CoglAtlasTexture and CoglTexturePixmapX11. We will then also expose an interface for the high-level texture types we have (such as CoglTexture2DSlice, CoglSubTexture and CoglAtlasTexture) called CoglMetaTexture. CoglMetaTexture is an additional interface that lets you iterate a virtual region of a meta texture and get mappings of primitive textures to sub-regions of that virtual region.

cogl: improves header and coding style consistency We've had complaints that our Cogl code/headers are a bit "special" so this is a first pass at tidying things up by giving them some consistency. These changes are all consistent with how new code in Cogl is being written, but the style isn't consistently applied across all code yet. There are two parts to this patch; but since each one required a large amount of effort to maintain tidy indenting it made sense to combine the changes to reduce the time spent re indenting the same lines. The first change is to use a consistent style for declaring function prototypes in headers. Cogl headers now consistently use this style for prototypes: return_type cogl_function_name (CoglType arg0, CoglType arg1); Not everyone likes this style, but it seems that most of the currently active Cogl developers agree on it. The second change is to constrain the use of redundant glib data types in Cogl. Uses of gint, guint, gfloat, glong, gulong and gchar have all been replaced with int, unsigned int, float, long, unsigned long and char respectively. When talking about pixel data; use of guchar has been replaced with guint8, otherwise unsigned char can be used. The glib types that we continue to use for portability are gboolean, gint{8,16,32,64}, guint{8,16,32,64} and gsize. The general intention is that Cogl should look palatable to the widest range of C programmers including those outside the Gnome community so - especially for the public API - we want to minimize the number of foreign looking typedefs.

The texture interface would provide roughly these methods: cogl_texture_get_width cogl_texture_get_height cogl_texture_can_repeat cogl_texture_can_mipmap cogl_texture_generate_mipmap; cogl_texture_get_format cogl_texture_set_region cogl_texture_get_region Besides the texture interface we will then start to expose types corresponding to specific texture types: CoglTexture2D, CoglTexture3D, CoglTexture2DSliced, CoglSubTexture, CoglAtlasTexture and CoglTexturePixmapX11. We will then also expose an interface for the high-level texture types we have (such as CoglTexture2DSlice, CoglSubTexture and CoglAtlasTexture) called CoglMetaTexture. CoglMetaTexture is an additional interface that lets you iterate a virtual region of a meta texture and get mappings of primitive textures to sub-regions of that virtual region. Internally we already have this kind of abstraction for dealing with sliced texture, sub-textures and atlas textures in a consistent way, so this will just make that abstraction public. The aim here is to clarify that there is a difference between primitive textures (CoglTexture2D/3D) and some of the other high-level textures, and also enable developers to implement primitives that can support meta textures since they can only be used with the cogl_rectangle API currently. The thing that's not so clean-cut with this are the texture constructors we have currently; such as cogl_texture_new_from_file which no longer make sense when CoglTexture is considered to be an interface. These will basically just become convenient factory functions and it's just a bit unusual that they are within the cogl_texture namespace. It's worth noting here that all the texture type APIs will also have their own type specific constructors so these functions will only be used for the convenience of being able to create a texture without really wanting to know the details of what type of texture you need. Longer term for 2.0 we may come up with replacement names for these factory functions or the other thing we are considering is designing some asynchronous factory functions instead since it's so often detrimental to application performance to be blocked waiting for a texture to be uploaded to the GPU.

cogl: improves header and coding style consistency We've had complaints that our Cogl code/headers are a bit "special" so this is a first pass at tidying things up by giving them some consistency. These changes are all consistent with how new code in Cogl is being written, but the style isn't consistently applied across all code yet. There are two parts to this patch; but since each one required a large amount of effort to maintain tidy indenting it made sense to combine the changes to reduce the time spent re indenting the same lines. The first change is to use a consistent style for declaring function prototypes in headers. Cogl headers now consistently use this style for prototypes: return_type cogl_function_name (CoglType arg0, CoglType arg1); Not everyone likes this style, but it seems that most of the currently active Cogl developers agree on it. The second change is to constrain the use of redundant glib data types in Cogl. Uses of gint, guint, gfloat, glong, gulong and gchar have all been replaced with int, unsigned int, float, long, unsigned long and char respectively. When talking about pixel data; use of guchar has been replaced with guint8, otherwise unsigned char can be used. The glib types that we continue to use for portability are gboolean, gint{8,16,32,64}, guint{8,16,32,64} and gsize. The general intention is that Cogl should look palatable to the widest range of C programmers including those outside the Gnome community so - especially for the public API - we want to minimize the number of foreign looking typedefs.

The texture interface would provide roughly these methods: cogl_texture_get_width cogl_texture_get_height cogl_texture_can_repeat cogl_texture_can_mipmap cogl_texture_generate_mipmap; cogl_texture_get_format cogl_texture_set_region cogl_texture_get_region Besides the texture interface we will then start to expose types corresponding to specific texture types: CoglTexture2D, CoglTexture3D, CoglTexture2DSliced, CoglSubTexture, CoglAtlasTexture and CoglTexturePixmapX11. We will then also expose an interface for the high-level texture types we have (such as CoglTexture2DSlice, CoglSubTexture and CoglAtlasTexture) called CoglMetaTexture. CoglMetaTexture is an additional interface that lets you iterate a virtual region of a meta texture and get mappings of primitive textures to sub-regions of that virtual region. Internally we already have this kind of abstraction for dealing with sliced texture, sub-textures and atlas textures in a consistent way, so this will just make that abstraction public. The aim here is to clarify that there is a difference between primitive textures (CoglTexture2D/3D) and some of the other high-level textures, and also enable developers to implement primitives that can support meta textures since they can only be used with the cogl_rectangle API currently. The thing that's not so clean-cut with this are the texture constructors we have currently; such as cogl_texture_new_from_file which no longer make sense when CoglTexture is considered to be an interface. These will basically just become convenient factory functions and it's just a bit unusual that they are within the cogl_texture namespace. It's worth noting here that all the texture type APIs will also have their own type specific constructors so these functions will only be used for the convenience of being able to create a texture without really wanting to know the details of what type of texture you need. Longer term for 2.0 we may come up with replacement names for these factory functions or the other thing we are considering is designing some asynchronous factory functions instead since it's so often detrimental to application performance to be blocked waiting for a texture to be uploaded to the GPU.

cogl: improves header and coding style consistency We've had complaints that our Cogl code/headers are a bit "special" so this is a first pass at tidying things up by giving them some consistency. These changes are all consistent with how new code in Cogl is being written, but the style isn't consistently applied across all code yet. There are two parts to this patch; but since each one required a large amount of effort to maintain tidy indenting it made sense to combine the changes to reduce the time spent re indenting the same lines. The first change is to use a consistent style for declaring function prototypes in headers. Cogl headers now consistently use this style for prototypes: return_type cogl_function_name (CoglType arg0, CoglType arg1); Not everyone likes this style, but it seems that most of the currently active Cogl developers agree on it. The second change is to constrain the use of redundant glib data types in Cogl. Uses of gint, guint, gfloat, glong, gulong and gchar have all been replaced with int, unsigned int, float, long, unsigned long and char respectively. When talking about pixel data; use of guchar has been replaced with guint8, otherwise unsigned char can be used. The glib types that we continue to use for portability are gboolean, gint{8,16,32,64}, guint{8,16,32,64} and gsize. The general intention is that Cogl should look palatable to the widest range of C programmers including those outside the Gnome community so - especially for the public API - we want to minimize the number of foreign looking typedefs.

Add a strong CoglTexture type to replace CoglHandle As part of the on going, incremental effort to purge the non type safe CoglHandle type from the Cogl API this patch tackles most of the CoglHandle uses relating to textures. We'd postponed making this change for quite a while because we wanted to have a clearer understanding of how we wanted to evolve the texture APIs towards Cogl 2.0 before exposing type safety here which would be difficult to change later since it would imply breaking APIs. The basic idea that we are steering towards now is that CoglTexture can be considered to be the most primitive interface we have for any object representing a texture. The texture interface would provide roughly these methods: cogl_texture_get_width cogl_texture_get_height cogl_texture_can_repeat cogl_texture_can_mipmap cogl_texture_generate_mipmap; cogl_texture_get_format cogl_texture_set_region cogl_texture_get_region Besides the texture interface we will then start to expose types corresponding to specific texture types: CoglTexture2D, CoglTexture3D, CoglTexture2DSliced, CoglSubTexture, CoglAtlasTexture and CoglTexturePixmapX11. We will then also expose an interface for the high-level texture types we have (such as CoglTexture2DSlice, CoglSubTexture and CoglAtlasTexture) called CoglMetaTexture. CoglMetaTexture is an additional interface that lets you iterate a virtual region of a meta texture and get mappings of primitive textures to sub-regions of that virtual region. Internally we already have this kind of abstraction for dealing with sliced texture, sub-textures and atlas textures in a consistent way, so this will just make that abstraction public. The aim here is to clarify that there is a difference between primitive textures (CoglTexture2D/3D) and some of the other high-level textures, and also enable developers to implement primitives that can support meta textures since they can only be used with the cogl_rectangle API currently. The thing that's not so clean-cut with this are the texture constructors we have currently; such as cogl_texture_new_from_file which no longer make sense when CoglTexture is considered to be an interface. These will basically just become convenient factory functions and it's just a bit unusual that they are within the cogl_texture namespace. It's worth noting here that all the texture type APIs will also have their own type specific constructors so these functions will only be used for the convenience of being able to create a texture without really wanting to know the details of what type of texture you need. Longer term for 2.0 we may come up with replacement names for these factory functions or the other thing we are considering is designing some asynchronous factory functions instead since it's so often detrimental to application performance to be blocked waiting for a texture to be uploaded to the GPU.

cogl: improves header and coding style consistency We've had complaints that our Cogl code/headers are a bit "special" so this is a first pass at tidying things up by giving them some consistency. These changes are all consistent with how new code in Cogl is being written, but the style isn't consistently applied across all code yet. There are two parts to this patch; but since each one required a large amount of effort to maintain tidy indenting it made sense to combine the changes to reduce the time spent re indenting the same lines. The first change is to use a consistent style for declaring function prototypes in headers. Cogl headers now consistently use this style for prototypes: return_type cogl_function_name (CoglType arg0, CoglType arg1); Not everyone likes this style, but it seems that most of the currently active Cogl developers agree on it. The second change is to constrain the use of redundant glib data types in Cogl. Uses of gint, guint, gfloat, glong, gulong and gchar have all been replaced with int, unsigned int, float, long, unsigned long and char respectively. When talking about pixel data; use of guchar has been replaced with guint8, otherwise unsigned char can be used. The glib types that we continue to use for portability are gboolean, gint{8,16,32,64}, guint{8,16,32,64} and gsize. The general intention is that Cogl should look palatable to the widest range of C programmers including those outside the Gnome community so - especially for the public API - we want to minimize the number of foreign looking typedefs.
