Revert all the work that happened on the master branch.
Sadly, this is the only way to merge the current development branch back
into master.
It is now abundantly clear that I merged the 1.99 branch far too soon,
and that Clutter 2.0 won't happen any time soon, if at all.
Since having the development happen on a separate branch throws a lot of
people into confusion, let's undo the clutter-1.99 → master merge, and
move back the development of Clutter to the master branch.
In order to do so, we need to do some surgery to the Git repository.
First, we do a massive revert in a single commit of all that happened
since the switch to 1.99 and the API version bump done with the
89a2862b05 commit. The history is too long
to be reverted commit by commit without being extremely messy.
The definition of wl_display differs between Wayland clients and
servers, and it's unsafe to include both wayland-client.h and
wayland-server.h at the same time. Fudge around this by making the
compositor public API use void * rather than struct wl_display *.

The commit 90e5088 added some extra compiler warning options that were
triggering warnings when enabling the wayland build due to missing
header includes. This adds those header includes in.

Because the wayland-server-protocol.h header includes symbols that
collide with wayland-client-protocol.h Cogl now provides top level
<cogl/cogl-wayland-server.h> and <cogl/cogl-wayland-client.h> headers so
that applications can ensure they only include one of the wayland
protocol headers in a particular compilation unit. This updates clutter
accordingly to include those headers.

When using the Wayland backend this sets a constraint that the
CoglRenderer selects the Wayland EGL winsys.
When a Wayland compositor display is set it now also sets a constraint
that the render should use EGL because only EGL renderers will set up
the required wl_drm global object.
The X11 backend now sets the X11 constraint.

Cogl now requires that all applications integrate their main loop with
Cogl so that it can listen for events from winsys. This patch just
adds Cogl's GSource to the main loop.

The ::redraw virtual function was a throwback from olden times, and has
been thoroughly replaced by the equivalent vfunc on the StageWindow
interface. We can safely remove it, now, and simplify the flow of the
redraw code inside ClutterStage.
This adds a --enable-wayland-compositor configure option which will add
support for a ClutterWaylandSurface actor which can be used to aid in
writing Wayland compositors using Clutter by providing a ClutterActor to
represent Wayland client surfaces.
Notably this configure option isn't tied into any particular backend
since conceptually the compositor support can be used in conjunction
with any clutter backend that has corresponding Cogl support.

This updates Wayland support in line with upstream changes to the Wayland
API and protocol.
This update means we no longer use the Cogl stub winsys so a lot of code
that had to manually interact with EGL and implement a swap_buffers
mechanism could be removed and instead we now depend on Cogl to handle
those things for us.
This update also adds an input device manager consistent with other
clutter backends.
Note: to use the client side "wayland" clutter backend you need to have
built Cogl with --enable-wayland-egl-platform. If Cogl has been built
with support for multiple winsys backends then you should run
applications with COGL_RENDERER=EGL in the environment.

The default stage was a neat concept when we started Clutter out,
somewhere in the Jurassic era; a singleton instance that gets created at
initialization time, and remains the same for the entire duration of the
process.
Worked well enough when Clutter was a small library meant to be used to
write fullscreen media browsers, but since the introduction of multiple
stages, and Clutter being used to create all sorts of applications, the
default stage is just a vestigial remainder of that past, like an
appendix; something that complicates the layout of the code and
introduces weird behaviour, so that you notice its existence only when
something goes wrong.
Some platforms we do support, though, only have one framebuffer, so it
makes sense for them to have only one stage.
At this point, the only sane thing to do is to go through the same code
paths on all platforms, and that code path is the stage instance
creation and initialization — i.e. clutter_stage_new() (or
g_object_new() with CLUTTER_TYPE_STAGE).
For platforms that support multiple stages, nothing has changed: the stage
created by clutter_stage_get_default() will be set as the default one;
if nobody calls it, the default stage is never created, and it just
lives on as a meaningless check.
For platforms that only support one stage, clutter_stage_new() and
clutter_stage_get_default() will behave exactly the same the first time
they are called: both will create a stage, and set it as the default.
Calling clutter_stage_new() a second time is treated as a programmer
error, and will result in Clutter aborting. This is a behavioural change
because the existing behaviour or creating a new ClutterStage instance
with the same ClutterStageWindow private implementation is, simply put,
utterly braindamaged and I should have *never* had written it, and I
apologize for it. In my defence, I didn't know any better at the time.
This is the first step towards the complete deprecation of
clutter_stage_get_default() and clutter_stage_is_default(), which will
come later.
Create the device manager during the event initialization, where it
makes sense.
This allows us to get rid of the per-backend get_device_manager()
virtual function, and just store the DeviceManager pointer into the
ClutterBackend structure.
Since we use Cogl for the context creation we can now provide a default
context creation that should just work, plus a couple of hooks to allow
plugging into the creation sequence for platforms supported by Cogl that
require special handling — like foreign displays or alpha-enabled swap
chains.
The various backends have now two choices: either replace the
create_context() in its entirety, or plug themselves into the default
context creation.
Input backends are, in some cases, independent from the windowing system
backends; we can initialize input handling using a model similar to what
we use for windowing backends, including an environment variable and
compile-/run-time checks.
This model allows us to remove the backend-specific init_events(), and
use a generic implementation directly inside the base ClutterBackend
class, thus further reducing the backend-specific code that every
platform has to implement.
This requires some minor surgery to every single backend, to make sure
that the function exposed to initialize the event loop is similar and
performs roughly the same operations.
This adds experimental API to be able to get the CoglContext associated
with the ClutterBackend. The CoglContext is required to use some of the
experimental 2.0 Cogl API.
Note: Since CoglContext is itself experimental API this API should
considered experimental too. This patch introduces a
CLUTTER_ENABLE_EXPERIMENTAL_API #ifdef guard which anyone wanting to use
this API must define so it's explicitly clear to developers that they
are playing with experimental API.
Note: This API is not yet supported on OSX because OSX still uses the
stub Cogl winsys and the Clutter backend doesn't explicitly create a
CoglContext.
Note: even though this is experimental API we still promise that it
wont be changed during a stable release cycle. This means for example
that you can depend on this for the lifetime of the clutter-1.8 stable
release cycle.
The G_CONST_RETURN define in GLib is, and has always been, a bit fuzzy.
We always used it to conform to the platform, at least for public-facing
API.
At first I assumed it has something to do with brain-damaged compilers
or with weird platforms where const was not really supported; sadly,
it's something much, much worse: it's a define that can be toggled at
compile-time to remove const from the signature of public API. This is a
truly terrifying feature that I assume was added in the past century,
and whose inception clearly had something to do with massive doses of
absynthe and opium — because any other explanation would make the
existence of such a feature even worse than assuming drugs had anything
to do with it.
Anyway, and pleasing the gods, this dubious feature is being
removed/deprecated in GLib; see bug:
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=644611
Before deprecation, though, we should just remove its usage from the
whole API. We should especially remove its usage from Cally's internals,
since there it never made sense in the first place.
This makes it possible to build Clutter against a standalone build of
Cogl instead of having the Clutter build traverse into the clutter/cogl
subdirectory.
This migrates all the GLX window system code down from the Clutter
backend code into a Cogl winsys. Moving OpenGL window system binding
code down from Clutter into Cogl is the biggest blocker to having Cogl
become a standalone 3D graphics library, so this is an important step in
that direction.
This gives us a way to clearly track the internal Cogl API that Clutter
depends on. The aim is to split Cogl out from Clutter into a standalone
3D graphics API and eventually we want to get rid of any private
interfaces for Clutter so its useful to have a handle on that task.
Actually it's not as bad as I was expecting though.
The GQueue that stores the global events queue is handled all over the
place:
• the structure is created in _clutter_backend_init_events();
• the queue is handled in clutter-event.c, clutter-stage.c and
clutter-backend.c;
• ClutterStage::dispose cleans up the events associated with
the stage being destroyed;
• the queue is destroyed in ClutterBackend::dispose.
Since we need to have access to it in different places we cannot put it
inside ClutterBackendPrivate, hence it should stay in ClutterMainContext;
but we should still manage it from just one place - preferably by the
ClutterEvent API only.
In the future, we want event translators to be the way to handle events
in backends. For this reason, they should be a part of the base abstract
ClutterBackend class, and not an X11-only concept.
Instead of asking all backends to do that for us, we can call
ClutterStageWindow::redraw ourselves by default.
This changeset fixes all backends to actually do the right thing, and
move the stage implementation redraw inside the ClutterStageWindow
implementation itself.
This is a lump commit that is fairly difficult to break down without
either breaking bisecting or breaking the test cases.
The new design for handling X11 event translation works this way:
- ClutterBackend::translate_event() has been added as the central
point used by a ClutterBackend implementation to translate a
native event into a ClutterEvent;
- ClutterEventTranslator is a private interface that should be
implemented by backend-specific objects, like stage
implementations and ClutterDeviceManager sub-classes, and
allows dealing with class-specific event translation;
- ClutterStageX11 implements EventTranslator, and deals with the
stage-relative X11 events coming from the X11 event source;
- ClutterStageGLX overrides EventTranslator, in order to
deal with the INTEL_GLX_swap_event extension, and it chains up
to the X11 default implementation;
- ClutterDeviceManagerX11 has been split into two separate classes,
one that deals with core and (optionally) XI1 events, and the
other that deals with XI2 events; the selection is done at run-time,
since the core+XI1 and XI2 mechanisms are mutually exclusive.
All the other backends we officially support still use their own
custom event source and translation function, but the end goal is to
migrate them to the translate_event() virtual function, and have the
event source be a shared part of Clutter core.
Move the private Backend API to a separate header.
This also allows us to finally move the class vtable and instance
structure to a separate file and plug the visibility hole that left
the Backend class bare for everyone to poke into.
When building actor relative transforms, instead of using the matrix
stack to combine transformations and making assumptions about what is
currently on the stack we now just explicitly initialize an identity
matrix and apply transforms to that.
This removes the full_vertex_t typedef for internal transformation code
and we just use ClutterVertex.
ClutterStage now implements apply_transform like any other actor now
and the code we had in _cogl_setup_viewport has been moved to the
stage's apply_transform instead.
ClutterStage now tracks an explicit projection matrix and viewport
geometry. The projection matrix is derived from the perspective whenever
that changes, and the viewport is updated when the stage gets a new
allocation. The SYNC_MATRICES mechanism has been removed in favour of
_clutter_stage_dirty_viewport/projection() APIs that get used when
switching between multiple stages to ensure cogl has the latest
information about the onscreen framebuffer.
Events allocated by Clutter should have a pointer to platform-specific
data; this would allow backends to add separate structures for holding
ancillary data, whilst retaining the ClutterEvent structure for use on
the stack.
In theory, for Clutter 2.x we might just want to drop Event and use an
opaque structure, or a typed data structure inheriting from
GTypeInstance instead.
