Semantic changes to Wayland means that we cannot rely on the compositor
setting a pointer buffer for us if set it to nil. The first part of fixing
this is to create an shm buffer containing the bytes for our cursor.
The best way to do this currently is to load the cursor from the well known
location where weston instals its cursor images. The code to implemente this
was derivedlifted from the Wayland backend in GTK+.
Currently, we're emitting the ClutterActor::destroy at the end of the
dispose implementation - right before we chain up to the parent
implementation.
The point of emission makes the ::destroy signal handlers able to just
use the actor pointer - as the actor state will have been mostly cleared
by the time application can run. This (undocumented) behaviour severely
limits the amount of things you can do inside a ::destroy signal
handler, thus making the ::destroy signal just a weird weak reference,
instead of a proper way to break application reference cycles.
Given that this change relaxes some of the conditions, this change
should be safe - obviously, if anything happens, we'll back it out; the
conformance and interactive tests confirm that, for common patterns of
usage, this change does not break existing code.
GLib has a nice, atomic object clearing function that allows us to drop
code looking like:
if (priv->object != NULL)
{
g_object_unref (priv->object);
priv->object = NULL;
}
from the ::dispose implementation.
I always have to think twice before returning a value from an event
signal handler, and I've been writing them for the past 10 years, so
it's conceivable that application developers that start with Clutter
will find them confusing as well.
Simple symbolic names should be easier to use.
The depth cueing through GL fog has been broken for a long while, now.
The fog-related API in Clutter is ridiculously limited, and harks back
to simpler times; the ClutterFog structure is not enough to express all
the GL fog machinery, and required application code to connect to the
Stage's paint implementation and drop into Cogl directly.
Additionally, the fixed pipeline fog machinery in GL simply does not
work with premultiplied alpha, unless you use a shader - and in that
case it would only work for textures. Let's deprecate it, and just
don't do anything if somebody has the brilliant idea of setting the
:use-fog property to TRUE.
Sadly, we need to remove the G_GNUC_NULL_TERMINATED annotation from
ClutterBox packing API; the compiler will otherwise emit a warning
for perfectly legal statements like:
clutter_box_pack (box, child, NULL);
because of the missing sentinel.
See also: g_object_new().
GLib has a "diagnostic mode" switch that can be checked to enable debug
messages on deprecated properties and signals, as these are purely
run-time constructs, and as such cannot be caught by compiler warnings.
The diagnostic mode is toggled by a simple environment variable, and
can be used to ease porting of application code.
We can use something similar to mark deprecated virtual functions and
other run-time constructs; to avoid collisions, we should use our own
environment variable, CLUTTER_ENABLE_DIAGNOSTIC.
Instead of using a PaintVolume for a 2D region, and an internal
function, use the newly added queue_redraw_with_clip() method.
This removes the last bit of internal API usage in the
ClutterX11TexturePixmap actor.

Add a public version of the clipped queue redraw, using a 2D clip. This
allows implementing actors with trackable 2D clipped regions, like the
ClutterX11TexturePixmap, outside of Clutter itself.

The Wayland protocol now has events represent when a pointer enters the
surface and when it leaves again.
For leaves the surface is not set in the event, for enters the surface is set.
Simply use this to determine whether to emit CLUTTER_ENTER or CLUTTER_LEAVE.
Previously the wl_shell object held the methods that allowed a client to
request changes to the shell's state associated with a surface. These methods
have now been moved to a wl_shell_surface object.
This change allows configure events to be handled inside the stage rather than
the backend.
