There were several functions I believe no one is currently using that were
only implemented in the GL backend (cogl_offscreen_blit_region and
cogl_offscreen_blit) that have simply been removed so we have a chance to
think about design later with a real use case.
There was one nonsense function (cogl_offscreen_new_multisample) that
sounded exciting but in all cases it just returned COGL_INVALID_HANDLE
(though at least for GL it checked for multisampling support first!?)
it has also been removed.
The MASK draw buffer type has been removed. If we want to expose color
masking later then I think it at least would be nicer to have the mask be a
property that can be set on any draw buffer.
The cogl_draw_buffer and cogl_{push,pop}_draw_buffer function prototypes
have been moved up into cogl.h since they are for managing global Cogl state
and not for modifying or creating the actual offscreen buffers.
This also documents the API so for example desiphering the semantics of
cogl_offscreen_new_to_texture() should be a bit easier now.
Redundant clearing of depth and stencil buffers every render can be very
expensive, so cogl now gives control over which auxiliary buffers are
cleared.
Note: For now clutter continues to clear the color, depth and stencil buffer
each paint.
When replacing the fbo_handle with a new handle it first unrefs the
old handle. This was previously a call to cogl_offscreen_unref which
silently ignored attempts to unref COGL_INVALID_HANDLE. However the
new cogl_handle_unref does check for this so we should make sure the
handle is valid to avoid the warning.
Bug 1565 - test-fbo case failed in many platform
clutter_texture_new_from_actor was broken because it created the FBO
texture but then never attached it to the material so it was never
used for rendering. The old behaviour in Clutter 0.8 was to assign the
texture directly to priv->tex. In 0.9 priv->tex is replaced with
priv->material which has a reference to the tex in layer 0. So putting
the FBO texture directly in layer 0 more closely matches the original
behaviour.
The cogl_is_* functions were showing up quite high on profiles due to
iterating through arrays of cogl handles.
This does away with all the handle arrays and implements a simple struct
inheritance scheme. All cogl objects now add a CoglHandleObject _parent;
member to their main structures. The base object includes 2 members a.t.m; a
ref_count, and a klass pointer. The klass in turn gives you a type and
virtual function for freeing objects of that type.
Each handle type has a _cogl_##handle_type##_get_type () function
automatically defined which returns a GQuark of the handle type, so now
implementing the cogl_is_* funcs is just a case of comparing with
obj->klass->type.
Another outcome of the re-work is that cogl_handle_{ref,unref} are also much
more efficient, and no longer need extending for each handle type added to
cogl. The cogl_##handle_type##_{ref,unref} functions are now deprecated and
are no longer used internally to Clutter or Cogl. Potentially we can remove
them completely before 1.0.
Only have load-data-async and load-async properties, both are construct
only and the latter adds the former load-size-async behavior on top of
load-data-async.
The fog and perspective API is currently split in two parts:
- the floating point version, using values
- the fixed point version, using structures
The relative properties are using the structure types, since they
are meant to set multiple values at the same time. Instead of
using bare values, the whole API should be coalesced into two
simple calls using structures to match the GObject properties.
Thus:
clutter_stage_set_fog (ClutterStage*, const ClutterFog*)
clutter_stage_get_fog (ClutterStage*, ClutterFog*)
clutter_stage_set_perspective (ClutterStage*, const ClutterPerspective*)
clutter_stage_get_perspective (ClutterStage*, ClutterPerspective*)
Which supercedes the fixed point and floating point variants.
More importantly, both ClutterFog and ClutterPerspective should
using floating point values, since that's what get passed to
COGL anyway.
ClutterFog should also drop the "density" member, since ClutterStage
only allows linear fog; non-linear fog distribution can be achieved
using a signal handler and calling cogl_set_fog() directly; this keeps
the API compact yet extensible.
Finally, there is no ClutterStage:fog so it should be added.
Instead of creating a separate thread for each texture load, the loads
are now queued in a thread pool which will use at most 3 textures at a
time. This avoids the potentially large overhead of creating and
destroying a thread for every image while still avoiding throttling
the CPU if a large number of textures are loaded at the same time.
If the load is cancelled the old code needed to join the thread which
effectively meant it had to wait for the load to finish. With this
model the threads are owned by the thread pool so there is no need to
wait for them to finish. Instead, each thread is given its own thread
data which we can use to mark the thread as aborted. Once the load is
finished the thread will check whether it is aborted before setting
the texture data. That way the ClutterTexture can just disown threads
that it needs to cancel.
This causes clutter to skip all the GL work of state changes and
texturing if the opacity was 0. This is done in ClutterTexture and not
ClutterActor to ensure that pre and post paint signals work correctly.
Other expensive actors should be doing the same thing.
When setting the COGL texture handle for a ClutterTexture the
texture will be set as the first layer of the material used
by the ClutterTexture. The documentation should clarify this
point.
The :texture and :material properties of ClutterTexture use a
Clutter-provided GType shielding from CoglHandle. Since CoglHandle
now has a GType we can use COGL_TYPE_HANDLE instead.
This commit also removes the conditional compilation of the
:material property, as it makes little sense now that the
Materials API has landed.
cogl_paint_init was a bit too miscellaneous; it mainly cleared the color, depth
and stencil buffers but arbitrarily it also disabled fogging and lighting.
It no longer disables lighting, since we know Cogl never enables lighting and
disabling of fog is now handled with a seperate function.
Since I noticed cogl_set_fog was taking a density argument documented as
"Ignored" I've also added a mode argument to cogl_set_fog which exposes the
exponential fog modes which can make use of the density.
Bug #1453 - Asynchronous texture loading can starve cpu.
Add a mutex that is held in the loader threads during the image
decoding. We were spawning and starting a thread for each asynchronously
loaded texture. This can cause cpu / memory starvation when many pixbuf
loaders allocate their temporary memory at the same time.
Also added -fno-strict-aliasing to MAINTAINER_CFLAGS in configure.ac
to avoid incorrect warnings caused by the static mutex code.
To convert from a TextureQuality to a COGL filter enumeration
we need to perform two function calls. Since we need both filters
when calling cogl_texture_set_filters() we can safely consolidate
the two conversion functions into one. This also allows using a
shorter function name, thus reducing the lenght of the lines
involved and, more importantly preventing Emmanuele from crying.
Otherwise if the dipose method is called twice the material will
already be destroyed when texture_free_gl_resources is called so it
will issue a warning about an invalid handle.
The 'no_slice' property means the texture should never be sliced. We
want cogl to create a texture with any amount of waste so we pass
max_waste as -1. However this got broken in commit 168d55 so that the
meaning got negated (no_slice enabled slicing).
When setting the cogl texture, the ClutterTexture takes a reference to
the Cogl handle but the material takes an additional reference when it
is set as the layer. Nothing was unrefing the temporary reference so
the textures were being leaked.

cogl_set_source_color4ub was previously used to set a transparent
white source color according to the actors opacity, but since
cogl_set_source_color now always implies you want a solid fill we
we use cogl_material_set_color4ub to achieve the same result.
This glues CoglMaterial in as the fundamental way that Cogl describes how to
fill in geometry.
It adds cogl_set_source (), which is used to set the material which will be
used by all subsequent drawing functions
It adds cogl_set_source_texture as a convenience for setting up a default
material with a single texture layer, and cogl_set_source_color is now also
a convenience for setting up a material with a solid fill.
"drawing functions" include, cogl_rectangle, cogl_texture_rectangle,
cogl_texture_multiple_rectangles, cogl_texture_polygon (though the
cogl_texture_* funcs have been renamed; see below for details),
cogl_path_fill/stroke and cogl_vertex_buffer_draw*.
cogl_texture_rectangle, cogl_texture_multiple_rectangles and
cogl_texture_polygon no longer take a texture handle; instead the current
source material is referenced. The functions have also been renamed to:
cogl_rectangle_with_texture_coords, cogl_rectangles_with_texture_coords
and cogl_polygon respectivly.
Most code that previously did:
cogl_texture_rectangle (tex_handle, x, y,...);
needs to be changed to now do:
cogl_set_source_texture (tex_handle);
cogl_rectangle_with_texture_coords (x, y,....);
In the less likely case where you were blending your source texture with a color
like:
cogl_set_source_color4ub (r,g,b,a); /* where r,g,b,a isn't just white */
cogl_texture_rectangle (tex_handle, x, y,...);
you will need your own material to do that:
mat = cogl_material_new ();
cogl_material_set_color4ub (r,g,b,a);
cogl_material_set_layer (mat, 0, tex_handle));
cogl_set_source_material (mat);
Code that uses the texture coordinates, 0, 0, 1, 1 don't need to use
cog_rectangle_with_texure_coords since these are the coordinates that
cogl_rectangle will use.
For cogl_texture_polygon; as well as dropping the texture handle, the
n_vertices and vertices arguments were transposed for consistency. So
code previously written as:
cogl_texture_polygon (tex_handle, 3, verts, TRUE);
need to be written as:
cogl_set_source_texture (tex_handle);
cogl_polygon (verts, 3, TRUE);
All of the unit tests have been updated to now use the material API and
test-cogl-material has been renamed to test-cogl-multitexture since any
textured quad is now technically a test of CoglMaterial but this test
specifically creates a material with multiple texture layers.
Note: The GLES backend has not been updated yet; that will be done in a
following commit.
If a ClutterTexture does not sync size, it should be possible to

Boolean arguments for functions are pretty evil and usually
lead to combinatorial explosion of parameters in case multiple
settings are added.
In the case of the COGL texture constructors we have a boolean
argument for enabling the auto-mipmapping; it is conceivable that
we might want to add more settings for a COGL texture without
breaking API or ABI compatibility, so the boolean argument should
become a bitmask.
The internals have not been changed: instead of checking for
a non-zero value, we check for a bitmask being set.
Okey; to summarise the changes...
We have converted Clutter and Cogl over to using floating point internally
instead of 16.16 fixed, but we have maintained the cogl-fixed API as a
utility to applications in case they want to implement their own optimizations.
The Clutter API has not changed (though ClutterFixed and ClutterUnit are now
internally floats) but all Cogl entry points have been changed to accept floats
now instead of CoglFixed.
To summarise the rationale...
There have been a number of issues with using fixed point though out Clutter
and Cogl including: lack of precision, lack of range, excessive format
conversion (GPUs tend to work nativly with IEEE floats) and maintainability.
One of the main arguments for fixed point - performance - hasn't shown
itself to be serious in practice so far since we seem to be more limited
by GPU performance and making improvements regarding how we submit data to
OpenGL[ES]/the GPU has had a more significant impact.
Ref: The recent multiple rectangle queuing changes + the
cogl-texture-agressive-batching branch which show significant performance
gains, and that recent tests on the ipodtouch (ARM + MBX) also showed no
loss of performance running with floats.
So finally; please forgive the inevitable fallout, this is a far reaching
change. There are still a few known issues with the fixed to float
conversion but enough works for all our conformance tests to pass, and the
remaining issues hopefully wont be too tricky to solve. For reference two
tags will be available either side of this change: "cogl-fixed-end" and
"cogl-float-start"
To deal with all the corner cases that couldn't be scripted a number of patches
were written for the remaining 10% of the effort.
Note: again no API changes were made in Clutter, only in Cogl.
This is the result of running a number of sed and perl scripts over the code to
do 90% of the work in converting from 16.16 fixed to single precision floating
point.
Note: A pristine cogl-fixed.c has been maintained as a standalone utility API
so that applications may still take advantage of fixed point if they
desire for certain optimisations where lower precision may be acceptable.
Note: no API changes were made in Clutter, only in Cogl.
Overview of changes:
- Within clutter/* all usage of the COGL_FIXED_ macros have been changed to use
the CLUTTER_FIXED_ macros.
- Within cogl/* all usage of the COGL_FIXED_ macros have been completly stripped
and expanded into code that works with single precision floats instead.
- Uses of cogl_fixed_* have been replaced with single precision math.h
alternatives.
- Uses of COGL_ANGLE_* and cogl_angle_* have been replaced so we use a float for
angles and math.h replacements.
It's more sensible to use 2^n-1 for a max tile-waste value rather
than 2^n, so change the value default from 64 to 63. Example:
191 and 192 will both be sliced to 128+64 rather than having
191=>128+64, 192=>256.

The ::load-finished signal is emitted only when loading a texture
using clutter_texture_set_from_file(). Since this breaks user
expectations and consistency, we should also emit ::load-finished
when loading a texture from image data.
The size of the texture as retrieved by the filename should
be set as the image size, not as the actor size, in order to
respect the :sync-size property.
When the asynchronous loading process terminates, we queue
a relayout so that the scene is updated.
Provide a main loop-based fallback to the asynchronous loading in
case the GLib threading support hasn't been enabled. This also
allows us to clean up the asynchronous loading machinery and have
it behave consistently across different scenarios.
Emit the ::load-finished even if the asynchronous loading from
disk was not enabled.
Finally, block clutter_texture_set_from_file() until we have an
image width and height, so that querying the texture actor size
after set_from_file() will still yield the correct result even
when asynchronous loading is set.
* units-rework:
[texture] Do not mix fixed point and units values
[tests] Fix the actor detection
[units] Do not use fixed point and units interchangeably
The API has been changed to take an explicit length for the number of
texture coordinates passed, and it's now documented that if there are
more layers to the current material than the number of texture coords
passed, then default coordinates will be generated for the other
layers.
cogl_material_rectangle should now handle the case where a single
sliced texture is supplied as a material layer by falling back to
cogl_texture_rectangle. We are nearly at the point that
cogl_texture_rectangle could be deprecated. A few issues remain
though, such as not considering waste in cogl_material_rectangle.
This converts clutter-texture to use the new CoglMaterial API instead of
cogl_texture_rectangle.
This change does not add multi-texturing support to Clutter, it's more about
aiming to deprecate cogl_texture_rectangle, and moving everything over to the
cogl_set_source(material); cogl_draw_somthing(); coding pattern.
With this patch, the code can be built with/without CoglMaterial support so we
can do comparisons of the old/new code for a transient period. (look for the
USE_COGL_MATERIAL define)
Note: The FBO paths haven't currently been tested, so they may need some
tweaks.
