Change API so that CoglPixelBuffer no longer knows its w/h/format The idea is that CoglPixelBuffer should just be a buffer that can be used for pixel data and it has no idea about the details of any images that are stored in it. This is analogous to CoglAttributeBuffer which itself does not have any information about the attributes. When you want to use a pixel buffer you should create a CoglBitmap which points to a region of the attribute buffer and provides the extra needed information such as the width, height and format. That way it is also possible to use a single CoglPixelBuffer with multiple bitmaps. The changes that are made are: • cogl_pixel_buffer_new_with_size has been removed and in its place is cogl_bitmap_new_with_size. This will create a pixel buffer at the right size and rowstride for the given width/height/format and immediately create a single CoglBitmap to point into it. The old function had an out-parameter for the stride of the image but with the new API this should be queriable from the bitmap (although there is no function for this yet). • There is now a public cogl_pixel_buffer_new constructor. This takes a size in bytes and data pointer similarly to cogl_attribute_buffer_new. • cogl_texture_new_from_buffer has been removed. If you want to create a texture from a pixel buffer you should wrap it up in a bitmap first. There is already API to create a texture from a bitmap. This patch also does a bit of header juggling because cogl-context.h was including cogl-texture.h and cogl-framebuffer.h which were causing some circular dependencies when cogl-bitmap.h includes cogl-context.h. These weren't actually needed in cogl-context.h itself but a few other headers were relying on them being included so this adds the #includes where necessary.

Note: this patch does technically introduce an API break since it drops the cogl_error_get_type() symbol generated by glib-mkenum (Since the CoglError enum was replaced by a CoglSystemError enum) but for now we are assuming that this will not affect anyone currently using the Cogl API. If this does turn out to be a problem in practice then we would be able to fix this my manually copying an implementation of cogl_error_get_type() generated by glib-mkenum into a compatibility source file and we could also define the original COGL_ERROR_ enums for compatibility too. Note: another minor concern with cherry-picking this patch to the 1.14 branch is that an api scanner would be lead to believe that some APIs have changed, and for example the gobject-introspection parser which understands the semantics of GError will not understand the semantics of CoglError. We expect most people that have tried to use gobject-introspection with Cogl already understand though that it is not well suited to generating bindings of the Cogl api anyway and we aren't aware or anyone depending on such bindings for apis involving GErrors.

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.

Note: this patch does technically introduce an API break since it drops the cogl_error_get_type() symbol generated by glib-mkenum (Since the CoglError enum was replaced by a CoglSystemError enum) but for now we are assuming that this will not affect anyone currently using the Cogl API.

Note: another minor concern with cherry-picking this patch to the 1.14 branch is that an api scanner would be lead to believe that some APIs have changed, and for example the gobject-introspection parser which understands the semantics of GError will not understand the semantics of CoglError. We expect most people that have tried to use gobject-introspection with Cogl already understand though that it is not well suited to generating bindings of the Cogl api anyway and we aren't aware or anyone depending on such bindings for apis involving GErrors.

The main reason we have cherry-picked this patch to the 1.14 branch even given the above concerns is that without it it would become very awkward for us to cherry-pick other beneficial patches from master.

Adds CoglError api Although we use GLib internally in Cogl we would rather not leak GLib api through Cogl's own api, except through explicitly namespaced cogl_glib_ / cogl_gtype_ feature apis. One of the benefits we see to not leaking GLib through Cogl's public API is that documentation for Cogl won't need to first introduce the Glib API to newcomers, thus hopefully lowering the barrier to learning Cogl. This patch provides a Cogl specific typedef for reporting runtime errors which by no coincidence matches the typedef for GError exactly. If Cogl is built with --enable-glib (default) then developers can even safely assume that a CoglError is a GError under the hood. This patch also enforces a consistent policy for when NULL is passed as an error argument and an error is thrown. In this case we log the error and abort the application, instead of silently ignoring it. In common cases where nothing has been implemented to handle a particular error and/or where applications are just printing the error and aborting themselves then this saves some typing. This also seems more consistent with language based exceptions which usually cause a program to abort if they are not explicitly caught (which passing a non-NULL error signifies in this case) Since this policy for NULL error pointers is stricter than the standard GError convention, there is a clear note in the documentation to warn developers that are used to using the GError api.
