This function is the same as cogl_offscreen_new_to_texture but it
takes a level parameter and a set of flags so that FBOs can be used to
render to higher mipmap levels and to disable the depth and stencil
buffers. cogl_offscreen_new_to_texture now just calls the new function
with the level set to zero. This function could be useful in a few
places in Cogl where we want to use FBOs as an implementation detail
such as when copying between textures.

In clutter_stage_real_queue_redraw we were checking to see if the
backend will ignore any subsequent redraw_clip so we can avoid the cost
of projecting the paint-volume of an actor into stage coordinates, but
we weren't ensuring that a full redraw would be queued instead we just
bailed out immediately. This makes sure to call
_clutter_stage_window_add_redraw_clip (stage_window, NULL) in this case
to make sure the backend will do an un-clipped redraw.
This tweaks the semantics of the has_redraw_clips vfunc so we can assume
that at the start of a new frame there is an implied, initial,
redraw_clip that clips everything (i.e. nothing would be redrawn) so in
that case we would expect the has_redraw_clips vfunc to return True at
the start of a new frame for backends that support clipping.
Previously there was an ambiguity when this function returned False
since it could either mean a full screen redraw had been queued or it
could mean that the clip state wasn't yet initialized for that frame.
This would result in _clutter_stage_has_full_redraw_queued() returning
True at the start of a new frame even before any actors have been
updated, which in turn meant we would incorrectly ignore queue_redraw
requests for actors, believing them to be redundant.
Previously we were leaving it up to the default implementation of
get_paint_volume in ClutterGroup to handle the stage by determining the
bounding box of all contained children. This isn't the true bounding box
of the stage though since the stage is responsible for clearing the
entire framebuffer at the start of the frame. This adds a
get_paint_volume implementation for ClutterStage which simply returns
False which means Clutter has to assume it covers everything.
When we handle Expose events we try and queue a clipped redraw of the
stage, but for some reason we were also redundantly calling
clutter_actor_queue_redraw for the stage which would negate the request
to queue a clipped redraw.
When uploading a 3D texture with an awkward rowstride, on GLES Cogl
will copy the images to an intermediate buffer to pass to GL. However
it was using the wrong height when copying the data so it would end up
overflowing the buffer and crashing.
Since we're using CoglPipelineWrapModeInternal in the internal API
anyway, and the compiler complains loudly when comparing two enumeration
types without casting, the PipelineLayer struct should store the
wrap modes using the internal enumeration.
The last_paint_box for an actor represents its "normal" position - we
shouldn't update it or use it to cull drawing if we are painting
a clone of the actor. Tracking whether we are painting a clone is
done by adding _clutter_actor_push/pop_clone_paint() and a global
"clone paint level".

When using clip planes and we we have to project some vertices into
screen coordinates we used to transform those by the modelview and then
the projection matrix separately. Now we combine the modelview and
projection matrix and then use that to transform the vertices in one
step instead.
When logging quads in the journal it used to be possible to specify a
mask of fallback layers (layers where a default white texture should be
used in-place of the corresponding texture in the current source
pipeline). Since we now handle fallbacks for cogl_rectangle* primitives
when validating the pipeline up-front before logging in the journal we
no longer need the ability for the journal to apply fallbacks too.
When transforming a paint-volume or transforming allocation vertices we
are transforming more than one point at a time so we can batch those
together with cogl_matrix_transform_points instead of
cogl_matrix_transform_point. Also in both of these cases we don't need
to do a projective transform so using cogl_matrix_transform_points also
lets us reduce the per-vertex computation.
This add two new function that allows us to transform or project an
array of points instead of only transforming one point at a time. Recent
benchmarking has shown cogl_matrix_transform_point to be a bottleneck
sometimes, so this should allow us to reduce the overhead when
transforming lots of vertices at the same time, and also reduce the cost
of 3 component, non-projective transforms.
For now they are marked as experimental (you have to define
COGL_ENABLE_EXPERIMENTAL_API) because there is some concern that it
introduces some inconsistent naming. cogl_matrix_transform_point would
have to be renamed cogl_matrix_project_point to be consistent, but that
would be an API break.
Switch _cogl_rectangles_with_multitexture_coords to using
_cogl_pipeline_foreach_layer to iterate the layers of a pipeline when
validating instead of iterating the pipelines internal list, which is
risky since any modifications to pipelines (even to an override pipeline
derived from the original), could potentially corrupt the list as it is
being iterated.
This removes the possibility to specify wrap mode overrides within a
CoglPipelineFlushOptions struct since the right way to handle these
overrides is by copying the user's material and making the changes to
that copy before flushing. All primitives code has already switched away
from using these wrap mode overrides so this patch just removes unused
code and types. It also remove the wrap_mode_overrides argument for
_cogl_journal_log_quad.
The CSS Color Module 3, available at:
http://www.w3.org/TR/css3-color/
allows defining colors as:
rgb ( r, g, b )
rgba ( r, g, b, a)
along with the usual hexadecimal and named notations.
The r, g, and b channels can be:
• integers between 0 and 255
• percentages, between 0% and 100%
The alpha channel, if included using the rgba() modifier, can be a
floating point value between 0.0 and 1.0.
The ClutterColor parser should support this notation.
With the refactoring to centralize code into CoglBuffer,
_cogl_buffer_fini() was never actually implemented, so all GL
vertex and index buffer objects were leaked.
The duplicate call to glDeleteBuffers() in CoglPixelArray is
removed (it wasn't paying attention to whether the buffer had been
allocated as a PBO or not.)
http://bugzilla.clutter-project.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2423
This adds egl backend support for handling clipped redraws. This uses
the EGL_NOK_swap_region extension to enable the EGL backend to present a
subregion from the back buffer to the front so we don't always have to
redraw the entire stage for small updates.
This adds a COGL_DEBUG=wireframe option to visualize the underlying
geometry of the primitives being drawn via Cogl. This works for triangle
list, triangle fan, triangle strip and quad (internal only) primitives.
It also works for indexed vertex arrays.
In cogl_vertex_buffer_indices_get_for_quads() we sometimes have to
extend the length of an existing array, but when we came to unref the
previous array we didn't first check that it wasn't simply NULL.
This adds an optional data argument for cogl_vertex_array_new() since it
seems that mostly every case where we use this API we follow up with a
cogl_buffer_set_data() matching the size of the new array. This
simplifies all those cases and whenever we want to delay uploading of
data then NULL can simply be passed.
The Behaviour class and its implementations have been replaced by the
new animation framework API and by the constraints for layout-related
animations.
Currently, we need to make tests build, so we undef DISABLE_DEPRECATED
in specific test cases while they get ported.
The paint volume structure is cached in the Actor it references, and
this causes a reference cycle.
The paint volume is going to be used when painting, so the actor must
still be valid - otherwise Clutter will bail out far before than
accessing the actor pointer in ClutterPaintVolume.
Otherwise, we could have used dispose() to check for a valid actor and
remove a reference if the actor field is !NULL; it feels less clean,
though, since we're effectively managing an extra reference on
ourselves.
http://bugzilla.clutter-project.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2431
Starting from the 2.27 cycle, GLib is exposing a monotonic clock with
microseconds granularity throughout the time-based API. We can start
using it, given that the old, non-monotonic version is going to be
deprecated by the same cycle.
GLib 2.28 will deprecate GTimeVal and related API in favour of
standardizing on microseconds granularity for all time-based API.
Clutter should switch too.
All of the current users of GTimeVal convert to milliseconds when
doing time operations, and use GTimeVal only as storage. This can
effectively be replaced by a gint64.
The Master Clock uses a microsecond resolution, except when interacting
with the main loop itself, since the main loop has a millisecond
resolution - at least until Ryan Lortie manages to switch that too to
microseconds on Linux.
The clutter_timeline_do_tick() function was erroneously not privatized,
but it was still assumed to be private; we should just remove it from
the public symbols.
For internal usage, writing:
clutter_actor_get_name (actor) != NULL
? clutter_actor_get_name (actor)
: G_OBJECT_TYPE_NAME (actor)
is overly verbose and does two type checks. A simple, internal method
for getting the same result without type checks would be much more
appreciated.
The "watch" function functionality in xsettings-client.c is designed
for setups like GDK where filters are per-window. If we are going
to pass all events to _clutter_xsettings_client_process_event()
anyways, we can just pass in NULL for watch.
This avoids a nasty infinite loop where an event would get processed
triggering removing a filter and adding a new filter, which would
immediately run and remove a filter and add another and so on
ad-infinitum.

The same behavior can be achieved by capturing events on stage while
button is pressed. This fixes a problem when using click and drag
actions on the same actor as there no grabs involved.
http://bugzilla.clutter-project.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2409
There's no longer any need to use the GL handle in the callback for
_cogl_texture_foreach_sub_texture_in_region because it can now work in
terms of primitive cogl textures so it has now been removed. This
would be helpful if we ever want to make the foreach function public
so that apps could implement their own primitives using sliced
textures.
Since d5634e37 the sliced texture backend now works in terms of
CoglTexture2Ds so there's no need to have special casing for
overriding the texture of a pipeline layer with a GL handle. Instead
we can just use cogl_pipeline_set_layer_texture with the
CoglHandle. The special _cogl_pipeline_set_layer_gl_texture_slice
function has now been removed and parts of the code for comparing
materials have been simplified.
The cogl_texture_foreach_sub_texture_in_region virtual for the sliced
texture backend was previously passing the CoglHandle of the sliced
texture to the callback. Since d5634e37 the slice texture backend now
works in terms of 2D textures so it's possible to pass the underlying
slice texture as a handle too. This makes all of the foreach callbacks
consistent in that they pass a CoglHandle of the primitive texture
type that matches the GL handle.
When COGL_ENABLE_EXPERIMENTAL_2_0_API is defined cogl.h will now include
cogl2-path.h which changes cogl_path_new() so it can directly return a
CoglPath pointer; it no longer exposes a prototype for
cogl_{get,set}_path and all the remaining cogl_path_ functions now take
an explicit path as their first argument.
The idea is that we want to encourage developers to retain path objects
for as long as possible so they can take advantage of us uploading the
path geometry to the GPU. Currently although it is possible to start a
new path and query the current path, it is not convenient.
The other thing is that we want to get Cogl to the point where nothing
depends on a global, current context variable. This will allow us to one
day define a sensible threading model if/when that is ever desired.
For now this new define is simply an alias for
COGL_ENABLE_EXPERIMENTAL_API but the intention is that we will also use
it to start experimenting with changes that need to break the existing
Cogl API in incompatible ways.
Since EGA colors are apparently all the rage in other toolkits, Clutter
should not be left out. On top of the usual CGA/EGA palette the static
colors also include the Tango Icon palette, which at least is more
pleasant to the eye.
Static colors are accessed through an enumeration by using
clutter_color_get_static(), or using the short-hand pre-processor
macros.
http://bugzilla.clutter-project.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2066
We now prepend a set of defines to any given GLSL shader so that we can
define builtin uniforms/attributes within the "cogl" namespace that we
can use to provide compatibility across a range of the earlier versions
of GLSL.
This updates test-cogl-shader-glsl.c and test-shader.c so they no longer
needs to special case GLES vs GL when splicing together its shaders as
well as the blur, colorize and desaturate effects.
To get a feel for the new, portable uniform/attribute names here are the
defines for OpenGL vertex shaders:
#define cogl_position_in gl_Vertex
#define cogl_color_in gl_Color
#define cogl_tex_coord_in gl_MultiTexCoord0
#define cogl_tex_coord0_in gl_MultiTexCoord0
#define cogl_tex_coord1_in gl_MultiTexCoord1
#define cogl_tex_coord2_in gl_MultiTexCoord2
#define cogl_tex_coord3_in gl_MultiTexCoord3
#define cogl_tex_coord4_in gl_MultiTexCoord4
#define cogl_tex_coord5_in gl_MultiTexCoord5
#define cogl_tex_coord6_in gl_MultiTexCoord6
#define cogl_tex_coord7_in gl_MultiTexCoord7
#define cogl_normal_in gl_Normal
#define cogl_position_out gl_Position
#define cogl_point_size_out gl_PointSize
#define cogl_color_out gl_FrontColor
#define cogl_tex_coord_out gl_TexCoord
#define cogl_modelview_matrix gl_ModelViewMatrix
#define cogl_modelview_projection_matrix gl_ModelViewProjectionMatrix
#define cogl_projection_matrix gl_ProjectionMatrix
#define cogl_texture_matrix gl_TextureMatrix
And for fragment shaders we have:
#define cogl_color_in gl_Color
#define cogl_tex_coord_in gl_TexCoord
#define cogl_color_out gl_FragColor
#define cogl_depth_out gl_FragDepth
#define cogl_front_facing gl_FrontFacing
The profiling support was broken - probably during the restructuring of
the build environment, but I'm too lazy to bisect that.
The fix is trivial, and everything works as it should.
When converting the virtual coordinates of the underlying texture for
a slice to virtual coordinates for the whole texture it was using the
size and offset of the intersection as the size of the child
texture. This would be incorrect if the texture contains waste or the
texture coordinates are not the default. Instead the sliced foreach
function now passes the CoglSpan to the callback instead of the
intersection.
http://bugzilla.clutter-project.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2398
Previously in the tests/tools directory we build a disable-npots
library which was used as an LD_PRELOAD to trick Cogl in to thinking
there is no NPOT texture extension. This is a little awkward to use so
it seems much simpler to just define a COGL_DEBUG option to disable
npot textures.
Instead of waiting until clutter_actor_paint to check if there are any
handlers connected to the "paint" signal, we now do the check whenever
the paint-volume is requested in _actor_get_paint_volume_mutable().
Previously we checked in clutter_actor_paint(), but at that time we may
already be using a stage clip that could be derived from an invalid
paint-volume. We used to try and handle that by queuing a follow up,
unclipped, redraw but anyway there was an additional problem with the
previous approach because the checking wasn't enough to always catch
invalid volumes involved in culling (considering that containers may
derive their volume from children that haven't yet been painted)
By moving the check to _get_paint_volume time not only do we now
correctly check children in cases where a container derives its volume
from its children's volumes but we no longer need to queue follow up
redraws to cover up artefacts.
Since we now never queue follow up redraws, this in turn means we should
no longer clobber redraws queued with an explicit clip which was
something affecting gnome-shell since it connects a handler to the paint
signal of the stage.
http://bugzilla.clutter-project.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2388
In some micro-benchmarks testing journal throughput the list
manipulation jumps pretty high in the profile. This replaces the GSList
usage with a GArray instead which is effectively a grow only allocation
that means we avoid ongoing allocations while manipulating the stack
mid-scene.
During _cogl_pipeline_needs_blending_enabled we were always checking the
current lighting properties (ambient,diffuse,specular,emission) which
had a notable impact during micro-benchmarks that exercise journal
throughput of simple colored rectangles. This #if 0's the offending code
considering that Cogl doesn't actually support lighting currently and
when it actually does then we will be able to optimize this by avoiding
the checks when lighting is disabled.
When using cogl_set_source_color4ub there is a notable difference
between colors that require blending and those that dont. When trying to
modify the color of pipeline referenced by the journal we don't force a
flush of the journal unless the color change will also change the
blending state. By using two separate pipeline objects for handing
opaque or transparent colors we can avoid ever flushing the journal when
repeatedly using cogl_set_source_color and jumping between opaque and
transparent colors.
This reworks _cogl_texture_quad_multiple_primitives so instead of using
the CoglPipelineWrapModeOverrides mechanism to force the clamp to edge
repeat mode we now derive an override pipeline using cogl_pipeline_copy
instead. This avoids a relatively large, unconditional, memset.
This avoids using the wrap mode overrides mechanism to implement
_cogl_multitexture_quad_single_primitive which requires memsetting a
fairly large array. This updates it to use cogl_pipeline_foreach_layer()
and we now derive an override_material to handle changes to the wrap
modes instead of using the CoglPipelineWrapModeOverrides.
Previously there was a check to avoid filling the path if there are
zero nodes. However the tesselator also won't generate any triangles
if there are less than 3 nodes so we might as well bail out in that
case too. If we don't emit any triangles then we would end up trying
to create an empty VBO. Although I don't think this should necessarily
be a problem, this seems to cause Mesa to segfault in version 7.8.1
when calling glBufferSubData (although not in
master). test-cogl-primitives tries to fill a path with only two
points so it's convenient to be able to avoid the crash in this case.
When adding a new entry to the journal a reference is now taken on the
current clip stack. Modifying the current clip state no longer causes
a journal flush. The journal flushing code now has an extra stage to
compare the clip state of each entry. The comparison can simply be
done by comparing the pointers. Although different clip states will
still end up with multiple draw calls this at leasts allows a scene
comprising of multiple different clips to be upload with one vbo. It
also lays the groundwork to do certain tricks when drawing clipped
rectangles such as modifying the geometry instead of setting a clip
state.
This adds a flag to avoid flushing the clip state when flushing the
framebuffer state. This will be used by the journal to manage its own
clip state flushing.
Flushing the clip state no longer does anything that would cause the
journal to flush. The clip state is only flushed when flushing the
framebuffer state and in all cases this ends up flushing the journal
in one way or another anyway. Avoiding flushing the journal will make
it easier to log the clip state in the journal.
Previously when trying to set up a rectangle clip that can't be
scissored or when using a path clip the code would use cogl_rectangle
as part of the process to fill the stencil buffer. This is now changed
to use a new internal _cogl_rectangle_immediate function which
directly uses the vertex array API to draw a triangle strip without
affecting the journal. This should be just as efficient as the
previous journalled code because these places would end up flushing
the journal immediately before and after submitting the single
rectangle anyway and flushing the journal always creates a new vbo so
it would effectively do the same thing.
Similarly there is also a new internal _cogl_clear function that does
not flush the journal.
Previously we tracked whether the clip stack needs flushing as part of
the CoglClipState which is part of the CoglFramebuffer state. This is
a bit odd because most of the clipping state (such as the clip planes
and the scissor) are part of the GL context's state rather than the
framebuffer. We were marking the clip state on the framebuffer dirty
every time we change the framebuffer anyway so it seems to make more
sense to have the dirtiness be part of the global context.
Instead of a just a single boolean to record whether the state needs
flushing, the CoglContext now holds a reference to the clip stack that
was flushed. That way we can flush arbitrary stack states and if it
happens to be the same as the state already flushed then Cogl will do
nothing. This will be useful if we log the clip stack in the journal
because then we will need to flush unrelated clip stack states for
each batch.
Instead of having a separate CoglHandle for CoglClipStack the code is
now expected to directly hold a pointer to the top entry on the
stack. The empty stack is then the NULL pointer. This saves an
allocation when we want to copy the stack because we can just take a
reference on a stack entry. The idea is that this will make it
possible to store the clip stack in the journal without any extra
allocations.
The _cogl_get_clip_stack and set functions now take a CoglClipStack
pointer instead of a handle so it would no longer make sense to make
them public. However I think the only reason we would have wanted that
in the first place would be to save the clip state between switching
FBOs and that is no longer necessary.
CoglVertexAttribute has an internal draw function that is used by the
CoglJournal to avoid the call to cogl_journal_flush which would
otherwise end up recursively flushing the journal forever. The
enable_gl_state function called by this was previously also calling
_cogl_flush_framebuffer_state. However the journal code tries to
handle this function specially by calling it with a flag to disable
flushing the modelview matrix. This is useful because the journal
handles flushing the modelview itself. Without this patch the journal
state ends up getting flushed twice. This isn't a particularly big
problem currently because the matrix stack has caching to recognise
when it would push the same state twice and bails out. However if we
later want to use the framebuffer flush flags to override a particular
state of the framebuffer (such as the clip state) then we need to make
sure the flush isn't called twice.
Unless the CoglBuffer is being used for texture data then it's
relatively unlikely that the data will contain an array of bytes. For
example if it's used as a vertex array then it's more likely to be
floats or some vertex struct. In that case it's much more convenient
if set_data and map use void* pointers so that we can avoid a cast.
The convenience constructors for the builtin vertex structs were
creating the primitive and then immediately destroying it and
returning the pointer. I think the intention was to unref the
attributes instead. This adds an internal wrapper around the
new_with_attributes_array constructor which unrefs the attributes
instead of the primitive. The convenience constructors now use that.
The GLES2 wrapper was referring to COGL_MATERIAL_PROGRAM_TYPE_GLSL but
this has since been renamed to COGL_PIPELINE_PROGRAM_TYPE_GLSL so the
GLES2 backend wouldn't compile.
The gles2 wrapper functions don't understand about the CoglBuffer API so
they don't support attributes stored in a CoglVertexArray. Instead of
teaching the backend about buffers we are going to wait until we have
overhauled the GLES 2 backend. We are currently making progress
consolidating the GLES 2 backend with a new GLSL backend for
CoglMaterial. This will hugely simplify the GLES 2 support and share
code with the OpenGL backend. In the end it's hoped that this problem
will simply go away so it doesn't make much sense to solve it with the
current design.
This applies an API naming change that's been deliberated over for a
while now which is to rename CoglMaterial to CoglPipeline.
For now the new pipeline API is marked as experimental and public
headers continue to talk about materials not pipelines. The CoglMaterial
API is now maintained in terms of the cogl_pipeline API internally.
Currently this API is targeting Cogl 2.0 so we will have time to
integrate it properly with other upcoming Cogl 2.0 work.
The basic reasons for the rename are:
- That the term "material" implies to many people that they are
constrained to fragment processing; perhaps as some kind of high-level
texture abstraction.
- In Clutter they get exposed by ClutterTexture actors which may be
re-inforcing this misconception.
- When comparing how other frameworks use the term material, a material
sometimes describes a multi-pass fragment processing technique which
isn't the case in Cogl.
- In code, "CoglPipeline" will hopefully be a much more self documenting
summary of what these objects represent; a full GPU pipeline
configuration including, for example, vertex processing, fragment
processing and blending.
- When considering the API documentation story, at some point we need a
document introducing developers to how the "GPU pipeline" works so it
should become intuitive that CoglPipeline maps back to that
description of the GPU pipeline.
- This is consistent in terminology and concept to OpenGL 4's new
pipeline object which is a container for program objects.
Note: The cogl-material.[ch] files have been renamed to
cogl-material-compat.[ch] because otherwise git doesn't seem to treat
the change as a moving the old cogl-material.c->cogl-pipeline.c and so
we loose all our git-blame history.
