It's pretty much pointless to have two API references:
• the Cally API reference is fairly small
• the build system is already complicated as it is
• GTK-Doc isn't smart enough to ignore sub-directories
• Cally is not a separate library, just a separate namespace
There are some issues with GTK-Doc not accepting multiple namespaces,
but nothing seriously tragic.
Cogl has now been split out into a standalone project with a separate
repository at git://git.gnome.org/cogl. From now on the Clutter build
will now simply look for a cogl-1.0 pkg-config file to find a suitable
Cogl library to link against at build time.
Keeping the Cogl 2.0 API reference in the build is getting far more
troublesome than it's worth.
It's breaking distcheck far too often, and it makes it impossible to
rebuild the build environment from tarballs - which is something that
some distributions (namely: the Debian-based ones, but not limited to
them) do in order to change build scripts using their own rules.
If not configured with --enable-cogl2-reference then don't try and dist
the doc/references/cogl-2.0 manual. Although this means a tarball built
this way will not be able to build the experimental cogl-2.0 manual this
isn't considered a big problem since anyone interested in this would
hopefully be tracking git for now or we can simply be careful to
configure with --enable-cogl2-reference for our tarball releases.
Building the API reference for Cogl 2.0 is fairly confusing: the API
itself is experimental and for internal use only -- though we want
feedback for it.
Let's build the API reference only when Clutter is configured with a
specific configure switch, so that people that wish to give feedback on
the API and its documentation can do it.
So we can keep track of the experimental progress of Cogl 2.0 features
this adds a standalone Cogl 2.0 Reference Manual which doesn't cover
the deprecated 1.x symbols and removes the need for a "Cogl
experimental API" chapter since those sections now make up the main
table of contents.
* clutter/win32/clutter-win32.h: Added gtk-doc documentation for
the Win32 backend section.
* clutter/win32/clutter-stage-win32.c
(clutter_win32_get_stage_window): Fixed punctuation in the
documentation.
* README: Added notes about the Win32 backend.
2008-03-26 Neil Roberts <neil@o-hand.com>
* clutter-sections.txt: Added a section for the Win32 specific
API.
* clutter-docs.sgml: Added comments about the Win32 backend.
* Makefile.am: Added bits to ignore the headers for the Win32
backend.
* Makefile.am:
* alpha-func.png:
* event-flow.png: More figures. alpha-func.png is a graph
showing the flow of some alpha functions; event-flow.png maps
the path of an event coming from the underlying windowing
system into Clutter and through the entire library.
* clutter/clutter-model-default.c:
(clutter_model_default_new),
(clutter_model_default_newv): Move the constructors in the
right file
* clutter/clutter-model-private.h: Add a private header for
the ClutterModel implementations
* clutter/clutter-model.c:
(clutter_model_check_type),
(clutter_model_set_n_columns),
(clutter_model_set_column_type): Mark as private to Clutter,
not static to ClutterModel
* clutter/Makefile.am: Add clutter-model-private.h
* clutter/clutter-behaviour.c:
(clutter_knot_get_type): Use the I_() macro.
* clutter/clutter-model.[ch]: Make ClutterModel and ClutterModelIter
abstract classes; also, provide more virtual functions inside the
ClutterModel vtable, to allow subclasses and language bindings to
override the entire ClutterModel using other/native data types
to store the rows.
* clutter/clutter-model-default.[ch]: ClutterModelDefault is a
default implementation of ClutterModel and ClutterModelIter using
GSequence.
* clutter/Makefile.am:
* clutter/clutter.h: Build glue for ClutterModelDefault.
* tests/test-model.c: Update for constructor changes.
* tests/test-shader.c: Fix a typo.
* clutter/clutter-actor.[ch]: Massive API clean-ups. Initial
fixes for bugs #614 and #628.
* clutter/clutter-main.c:
* clutter/clutter-stage.c: Update internal usage of the actor
API.
* tests/test-events.c: Update test suite.
* clutter/json/json-parser.c: Use the commodity JsonNode API
and accept bare values as root nodes.
* clutter/clutter-script-private.h:
* clutter/clutter-script.c: Unreference the created objects
only if they are top-levels, like ClutterBehaviour and
ClutterTimelines. Actors have floating references, so we
just transfer ownership to their containers, and the stage
is owned by the backend. Add the "type_func" key to the
object definition, so the user can supply its own GType
function if the class name doesn't follow the GObject rules.
Document the ClutterScript public API.
Initial implementation of the UI definition files. (#424)
* clutter/json/Makefile.am:
* clutter/json/*.[ch]: In-tree copy of JSON-GLib, a GLib-based
JSON parser/generator library. We use it in-tree because we might
need to change the API. Ideally, we'd depend on it.
* clutter/clutter.h:
* clutter/clutter-script-private.h:
* clutter/clutter-script.[ch]: ClutterScript, the scenegraph
generator class. It parses JSON streams in form of buffers and
files and builds the scene.
* clutter/clutter-debug.h:
* clutter/clutter-main.c: Add a "script" debug flag
* clutter/Makefile.am: Build glue.
* tests/Makefile.am:
* tests/test-script.c: Add a test case for the ClutterScript.
* configure.ac: Depend on GLib 2.14, so we can use the
g_hash_table_get_key() and g_hash_table_get_values() functions
for the time being; we can probably reimplement those, but we
are going to need 2.14 anyway if we are going to implement a
list model using GSequence.
Finding a child by its ID is a method that should be used by every container
and not only by ClutterGroup. This is needed to actually fix the picking in
ClutterStage.
* subclassing-ClutterActor.sgml: Add a chapter about how to
correctly subclass the actor base class.
* clutter-docs.sgml: Include the new chapter about subclassing
ClutterActor; add a description for some of the API reference
parts.
Add a semi-private function, called clutter_base_init(), which initialises
the basic Clutter functionalities (at the moment, just the GLib type system)
without calling in the backend-specific code. This function is only useful
for gtk-doc, to introspect the library when generating documentation for
signals, properties and class hierarchy.
Also, change the documentation build system to use clutter_base_init() when
launching the scanner program.
* clutter/clutter-private.h: Remove inclusion of backend-specific
headers; update the main context object; add the declarations for
the event queue functions.
* clutter/clutter-backend.[ch]: Add the abstract ClutterBackend
object, which holds backend-specific settings, the main stage,
and the event queue. Every backend must implement a subclass of
ClutterBackend and ClutterStage.
* clutter/clutter-feature.c: Protect the GLX specific calls
behing #ifdef HAVE_CLUTTER_GLX.
* clutter/clutter-actor.c:
* clutter/clutter-group.c:
* clutter/clutter-clone-texture.c: Include GL/gl.h
* clutter/clutter-event.[ch]: Update public API and implement the
event queue private API; hold a reference on the event objects;
move out the keysym-to-unicode table; add the new event types.
* clutter/clutter-color.h: Include clutter-fixed.h
* clutter/clutter-main.c: Update API; get the main stage
from the backend object; process the event received from the
queue; lock/unlock the main mutex if we have one; move the
initialisation process sooner in the init sequence, in order to
have the backend object when we check for options; call the
backed vfuncs in the pre/post parse hooks.
* clutter/clutter-stage.c: Make ClutterStage and abstract class,
implemented by the backends.
* clutter/clutter/glx/clutter-glx.h:
* clutter/clutter/glx/clutter-backend-glx.[ch]:
* clutter/clutter/glx/clutter-event-glx.c:
* clutter/clutter/glx/clutter-stage-glx.[ch]:
* clutter/clutter/glx/Makefile.am: Add the GLX backend.
* clutter/clutter/egl/clutter-backend-egl.[ch]:
* clutter/clutter/egl/clutter-event-egl.c:
* clutter/clutter/egl/clutter-stage-egl.[ch]:
* clutter/clutter/egl/Makefile.am: Add the stub for a EGL backend.
* examples/*.c: Update for the new API.
Avoid clutter segfaulting when used without invoking
clutter_init(). This is needed when using api documentation
tools and every other tool relying on the GObject
introspection API (esp. on a headless box). see the
note in clutter/clutter-feature.c:clutter_feature_init
for a full explanation.
* clutter/clutter-feature.c: Call clutter_feature_init()
when needed by one of the accessors of the features
structure.
* clutter/clutter-main.c:
* clutter/clutter-private.h: Remove clutter_feature_init()
public declaration: the features support check is done the
first time a feature is needed.
* clutter/clutter-main.c: Do not ever access the clutter
main context pointer directly; instead, obtain a pointer
to it via clutter_context_get_default(), which will always
return something valid.
* configure.ac: Enable debug messages also when
--enable-debug is set to "minimum".
* clutter/Makefile.am:
* clutter/clutter-debug.h: Move all debugging macros inside
this private header; make all debug macros depend on the
CLUTTER_ENABLE_DEBUG compile time define, controlled by
the --enable-debug configure switch; add G_LOG_DOMAIN define.
* clutter/clutter-main.c: Clean up the debug stuff; add
command line argument parsing using GOption; the debug
messages now are triggered like this:
CLUTTER_DEBUG=section:section:... clutter-app
or like this:
clutter-app --clutter-debug=section:section:...
where "section" is one of the sections listed in clutter-main.c,
or "all", for all sections; each section is bound to a flag,
which can be used to define a domain when adding a debug note
using the CLUTTER_NOTE() macro; the old CLUTTER_DBG() macro is
just a wrapper around that, under the CLUTTER_DEBUG_MISC domain;
CLUTTER_NOTE() is used like this:
CLUTTER_NOTE (DOMAIN, log-function);
where log function is g_printerr(), g_message(), g_warning(),
g_critical() or directly g_log() - for instance:
CLUTTER_NOTE (PANGO, g_warning ("Cache miss: %d", glyph));
will print the warning only if the "pango" flag has been
set to the CLUTTER_DEBUG envvar or passed to the --clutter-debug
command line argument.
similar to CLUTTER_SHOW_FPS, there's also the --clutter-show-fps
command line switch; also, the --display and --screen command
line switches have been added: the first overrides the DISPLAY
envvar and the second controls the X screen used by Clutter to
get the root window on the display.
* clutter/clutter-main.h:
* clutter/clutter-main.c: Add extended support for GOption
in Clutter; use clutter_init_with_args() to let Clutter
parse your own command line arguments; use instead
clutter_get_option_group() to get the GOptionGroup used by
Clutter if you want to do the parsing yourself with
g_option_context_parse(). The init sequence has been verified,
updated and moved into common functions where possible.
* clutter/pango/pangoclutter-render.c:
* clutter/*.c: Include "clutter-debug.h" where needed; use
CLUTTER_NOTE() instead of CLUTTER_DBG().
* examples/super-oh.c: Use the new clutter_init_with_args()
function, and add a --num-hands command line switch to
the SuperOH example code controlling the number of hands at
runtime.
* clutter/Makefile.am:
* clutter/clutter.h:
* clutter/clutter-version.h.in: Auto-generated versioning macros.
* clutter/clutter-actor.h:
* clutter/clutter-actor.c: Add a ClutterActor::parent-set signal,
for notificating changes of an actor's parent; add api-doc for
the actor's properties; add the ClutterActor "name" property; clean
up a bit some functions; emit the "parent-set" signal when setting
te parent and when unparenting; better warnings when lowering
and raising an actor.
* configure.ac:
* clutter/Makefile.am: Add a --enable-debug configure option,
with three levels of debugging: no, minimum and yes; default
for development releases (odd minor version) is "yes"; update
the version m4 defines; update the libtool macros: now just
changed the clutter_interface_age when releasing will update
everything else.
* clutter/clutter-behaviour-path.h:
* clutter/clutter-behaviour-path.c: Add a "knot-reached" signal,
which is emitted when the path reaches a node in the nodes list;
flesh out the documentation a bit; sync the parameters names
so that gtk-doc doesn't complain about missing stuff.
* clutter/clutter-behaviour.h:
* clutter/clutter-behaviour.c: Add the alpha value to the
ClutterBehaviour::alpha_notify vfunc, so you don't have to
get the value from the alpha inside the behaviour implementations;
add more documentation.
* clutter/clutter-alpha.c: Flesh out the description.
* clutter/clutter-actor.h: Update the header.
* clutter/clutter-behaviour-opacity.c:
* clutter/clutter-behaviour-scale.c: Update docs.
* clutter/clutter-alpha.h:
* clutter/clutter-alpha.c: Add a data parameter to
the ClutterAlphaFunc; add a data+destroy parameter
to clutter_alpha_set_func() and to clutter_alpha_new(),
and turned the latter into clutter_alpha_new_full();
add a simple, empty constructor clutter_alpha_new().
These changes makes writing bindings a tad more easy,
as bindings require passing their own functions in
order to call the real alpha function.
* clutter/clutter-behaviour.h: Clean up the header.
* clutter/clutter-behaviours.[ch]:
* clutter/clutter-behaviour-opacity.[ch]:
* clutter/clutter-behaviour-path.[ch]:
* clutter/clutter-behaviour-scale.[ch]: Split the
ClutterBehaviourPath, ClutterBehaviourOpacity and
ClutterBehaviourScale into their own files as they
have been growing a bit. Fix ClutterBehaviourPath
API.
* clutter/clutter-media.h: Remove the commented
"metadata_available" signal: gtk-doc chokes up on that.
* clutter/clutter-timeline.h:
* clutter/clutter-timeline.c: Remove the useless
ClutterTimelineAlphaFunc signature; add missing accessor
methods for the properties; clean up a bit.
* clutter/clutter-util.h:
* clutter/clutter-util.c: Remove unneeded function
clutter_util_can_create_texture().
* clutter/clutter-feature.h: Sync the name of
clutter_feature_get_all() with the name declared
in clutter-feature.h.
* clutter/Makefile.am:
* clutter/clutter.h: Update.
* examples/behave.c: Update to the new ClutterAlpha
constructor.
* examples/super-oh.c: Use the right pointer and avoid
the compiler making a fuss about it.
* clutter/clutter-timeline.h:
* clutter/clutter-timeline.c: Add a "started" and a "paused"
signals; add more sanity checks on the public functions.
(clutter_timeline_get_loop): Add a getter function for the
loop property.
* clutter/clutter-marshal.list: Add marshallers.
* clutter/clutter-timeline.h:
* clutter/clutter-actor.h: Add padding for future expansion
without breaking ABI.
