clutter-event-egl had nothing to do with EGL, it's code for opening
tslib devices and creating a GSource for touch screen events. It just
happens that this only ever gets used with the eglnative backend.
Right before we create the EGL context, we check if we were built with
OpenGL or OpenGLES support and it was OpenGL then we call eglBindAPI
(EGL_OPENGL_API); This also explicitly requests a EGL_RENDERABLE_TYPE
supporting the EGL_OPENGL_BIT.
This will let us add a new ./configure flavour that combines OpenGL and
EGL instead of OpenGL and GLX.
With this patch if you ./configure clutter using
--with-flavour=opengl-egl-xlib then it will use EGL + OpenGL instead of
the default GLX and OpenGL.
These days upstream driver work is more focused on improving EGL than it
is GLX so likewise we want to make sure Clutter has good support for
EGL.
This adds a separate variable name "CLUTTER_SONAME_INFIX" to define the
infix for the clutter library that gets linked. Currently the WINSYS
corresponds to the directory we enter when building to compile the
window system and input support, but it is desirable to be able to
define multiple flavours that use the same WINSYS but should result in
different library names.
For example we are planning to combine the eglx and eglnative window
systems into one "egl" winsys but we will need to preserve the current
library names for the eglx and eglnative flavours.
When we check the flavour we now just set boolean variables for the
following things:
SUPPORT_X11=1
SUPPORT_XLIB=1
SUPPORT_GLX=1
SUPPORT_EGL=1
SUPPORT_EGL_POWERVR_X11=1
SUPPORT_EGL_POWERVR_NULL=1
This lets us avoid some duplication and also some error prone tests for
lists of flavours used, for example, to determine when we need to check
for x libraries.
It's desirable to have a separation between the "flavour" and the
"winsys". The flavour is a concept internal to the configure script and
is a convenient name to represent the users choice of window system,
opengl driver and input backend. The CLUTTER_WINSYS currently defines
the subdirectory under clutter/ that should be compiled to handle the
window system and input.
With a separation we could add a flavour with no correspondence to which
clutter/subdirectory needs to be built.
After checking the flavour option the user gives we were checking for
the fruity flavour to override the glesversion. Now that the glsl
checking has been moved this can instead just wait until the AS_CASE
that handles all the flavour configuration.
The flavour AS_CASE should define whether a flavour uses the gl or gles
COGL_DRIVER and so we shouldn't need to have an expanding list of
tests to gate when we check for a gles driver because if we move the
checks for gles after the flavour checks we can just look at
$COGL_DRIVER.
This removes EGL_{LIBS,CFLAGS}, GLX_{LIBS,CFLAGS}, OSX_{LIBS,CFLAGS},
WIN32_{LIBS,CFLAGS}, and GLES_{LIBS,CFLAGS} and instead we just append
to FLAVOUR_{LIBS,CFLAGS}.
This makes more of the file relocatable because there were previously
dependencies on the order that some variables were setup in.
g_array_unref was only added in GLib 2.22 so we should really update
the requirements in the configure script if we want to use that
function. However the array doesn't appear to have any extra reference
taken on it anywhere so it should be safe to use g_array_free instead.
Under WGL, any functions that were defined after GL 1.1 are not
directly exported in the DLL so we need to reference them via the
function pointers. A new call to glActiveUnit was missed in
cogl-context.c
The window headers contain the line
#define near
so it's not possible to use the symbol 'near' in code that's portable
to Windows. This replaces it with 'near_val'.
I think the define is meant to improve compatibility with code written
for Windows 3.1 where near would be a keyword to make it a smaller
pointer size.
ClutterActor should allow attaching actions, constraints and effects
just like it allows behaviours, e.g.:
{
...
"constraints" : [
{
"type" : "ClutterAlignConstraint",
"source" : "stage",
"align-axis" : "x-axis",
"factor" : 0.5
},
{
"type" : "ClutterAlignConstraint",
"source" : "stage",
"align-axis" : "y-axis",
"factor" : 0.5
}
],
...
}
or:
{
...
"actions" : [
{
"type" : "ClutterDragAction",
"signals" : [
{ "name" : "drag-end", "handler" : "on_drag_end" }
]
}
],
...
}
In order to do so, we use the Scriptable interface implementation and
add three new custom properties accepting an array; then we parse each
member of the array as a new object.
Since constructing AlignConstraint and BindConstraint instances could be
deferred (think ClutterScript) we need to make their :source properties
setters accept NULL. This does not break the constraints because they
need to handle that condition in case they actor to which they are
applied is destroyed and somebody is holding a reference on them anyway.
The get_id_from_node() internal function should be exposed inside
Clutter (as a private function) because it can be useful to other
custom parsing code. The code is pretty trivial, but it would be
pointless to re-implement it.
Similar to the one in commit 2a354d9650
that went into clutter_value_set_shader_*. We end up in the same
situation, but it's better to fail from within ClutterShaderEffect.
Emit a critical error if the user tries to send more data than
the static shader GValues can hold.
This fixes the random memory corruption you get when specifying
size > 4.

The :sync-size property of ClutterTexture should be set to FALSE by
default by ClutterCairoTexture. The preferred size of the
ClutterCairoTexture is already the size of the internal Cairo surface,
and we override the preferred width/height getters to that effect.
The :sync-size property is also responsible of changing the size of
the Texture actor when changing the texture handle - but since we
encourage that to happen during the CairoTexture allocation, we get a
queue_relayout() invocation (and a warning) when we change the size
of the Cairo image surface.
Since GObject doesn't make it easy to override the default value of the
:sync-size property in sub-classes, we should simply call the setter
function during the ClutterCairoTexture instance initialization.
We should also change one of the interactive tests using a CairoTexture
to rebuild the contents of the actor in response to an allocation.
When clipped redraws were first supported in Clutter a heuristic was
added to promote tall clipped redraws into full redraws due to a concern
that using glXCopySubBuffer for tall rectangles would block the GPU for
too long waiting for the vtrace to be in a suitable position so that
tearing isn't seen. We've so far been unable to measure any impact from
this blocking even with full height windows so we are removing the
arbitrary threshold of 300px that was originally "plucked out of thin
air".

We don't need to generate a new ARBfp program for every material created
if we can find an ancestor whos state will result in the same program
being generated.
The more code we can have adopt the coding pattern of deriving their
materials from other similar materials using cogl_material_copy() the
more likely this metric will be good enough on its own to minimize the
set of arbfp programs necessary to support a given application.
Previously in _cogl_material_pre_change_notify we manually freed the
layer caches of a material if we caused a reparent, but it makes more
sense to have _cogl_material_set_parent do this directly instead.
This adds a _cogl_material_weak_copy() function that can be used to
create materials that don't count as strong dependants on their parents.
This means the parent can be modified without worrying about how it will
affect weak materials. The material age of the parent can potentially be
queried to determine if a weak material might need to be re-created.
When we add support for weak materials it's expected that Clutter will
want to attach them as private data to other materials and it needs a
mechanism to determine when a weak material should be re-created because
its parent has changed somehow.
This adds the concept of a material age (internal only currently) which
increments whenever a material is modified. Clutter can then save the
age of the material which its weak materials are derived from and later
determine when the weak material may be invalid.
In _cogl_texture_quad_multiple_primitives we weren't memsetting the
CoglMaterialWrapModeOverrides structure we were memsetting
&state.wrap_mode_overrides where state.wrap_mode_overrides is just a
pointer that might potentially later point to the
CoglMaterialWrapModeOverrides structure.
In _cogl_material_equal we were repeating the same code pattern to
compare several of the state groups so this just adds
simple_property_equal function that's now used instead.
This redirects the legacy depth testing APIs through CoglMaterial and
adds a new experimental cogl_material_ API for handling the depth
testing state.
This adds the following new functions:
cogl_material_set_depth_test_enabled
cogl_material_get_depth_test_enabled
cogl_material_set_depth_writing_enabled
cogl_material_get_depth_writing_enabled
cogl_material_set_depth_test_function
cogl_material_get_depth_test_function
cogl_material_set_depth_range
cogl_material_get_depth_range
As with other experimental Cogl API you need to define
COGL_ENABLE_EXPERIMENTAL_API to access them and their stability isn't
yet guaranteed.
cogl_ortho is one of those APIs whos style was, for better or worse,
copied from OpenGL and for some inexplicable reason the near and far
arguments are inconsistent with the left, right, top, bottom arguments
because they don't take z coordinates they take a "distance" which
should be negative for a plane behind the viewer.
This updates the documentation to explain this.
The internal CoglMaterialLayer pointers associated with a material may
change whenever layer properties are modified so it's no longer ok to
assume that a list of layers returned by cogl_material_get_layers
remains valid if the layers have been changed.
Since it can sometimes be awkward to figure out where a particular
material came from when debugging, this adds a breadcrumb mechanism that
lets you associate a const string with a material that may give a clue
about its origin.
As a follow on to using cogl_material_copy instead of flush options this
patch now removes the ability to pass flush options to
_cogl_material_equal which is the final reference to the
CoglMaterialFlushOptions mechanism.
Since cogl_material_copy should now be cheap to use we can simplify
how we handle fallbacks and wrap mode overrides etc by simply copying
the original material and making our override changes on the new
material. This avoids the need for a sideband state structure that has
been growing in size and makes flushing material state more complex.
Note the plan is to eventually use weak materials for these override
materials and attach these as private data to the original materials so
we aren't making so many one-shot materials.
This is a complete overhaul of the data structures used to manage
CoglMaterial state.
We have these requirements that were aiming to meet:
(Note: the references to "renderlists" correspond to the effort to
support scenegraph level shuffling of Clutter actor primitives so we can
minimize GPU state changes)
Sparse State:
We wanted a design that allows sparse descriptions of state so it scales
well as we make CoglMaterial responsible for more and more state. It
needs to scale well in terms of memory usage and the cost of operations
we need to apply to materials such as comparing, copying and flushing
their state. I.e. we would rather have these things scale by the number
of real changes a material represents not by how much overall state
CoglMaterial becomes responsible for.
Cheap Copies:
As we add support for renderlists in Clutter we will need to be able to
get an immutable handle for a given material's current state so that we
can retain a record of a primitive with its associated material without
worrying that changes to the original material will invalidate that
record.
No more flush override options:
We want to get rid of the flush overrides mechanism we currently use to
deal with texture fallbacks, wrap mode changes and to handle the use of
highlevel CoglTextures that need to be resolved into lowlevel textures
before flushing the material state.
The flush options structure has been expanding in size and the structure
is logged with every journal entry so it is not an approach that scales
well at all. It also makes flushing material state that much more
complex.
Weak Materials:
Again for renderlists we need a way to create materials derived from
other materials but without the strict requirement that modifications to
the original material wont affect the derived ("weak") material. The
only requirement is that its possible to later check if the original
material has been changed.
A summary of the new design:
A CoglMaterial now basically represents a diff against its parent.
Each material has a single parent and a mask of state that it changes.
Each group of state (such as the blending state) has an "authority"
which is found by walking up from a given material through its ancestors
checking the difference mask until a match for that group is found.
There is only one root node to the graph of all materials, which is the
default material first created when Cogl is being initialized.
All the groups of state are divided into two types, such that
infrequently changed state belongs in a separate "BigState" structure
that is only allocated and attached to a material when necessary.
CoglMaterialLayers are another sparse structure. Like CoglMaterials they
represent a diff against their parent and all the layers are part of
another graph with the "default_layer_0" layer being the root node that
Cogl creates during initialization.
Copying a material is now basically just a case of slice allocating a
CoglMaterial, setting the parent to be the source being copied and
zeroing the mask of changes.
Flush overrides should now be handled by simply relying on the cheapness
of copying a material and making changes to it. (This will be done in a
follow on commit)
Weak material support will be added in a follow on commit.
We were incorrectly guarding the use of GL_TEXTURE_RECTANGLE_ARB with
ifdef ARB_texture_rectangle instead of ifdef GL_ARB_texture_rectangle
which broke test-cogl-texture-rectangle.
This was mistakenly added some time ago because at some point when we
were discussing how to handle premultiplied alpha in Clutter/Cogl we
were considering having a magic "just do the right thing" option which
was later abandoned.
This is to try and improve API consistency. Simple cogl structures that
don't derive from CoglObject and which can be allocated on the stack,
such as CoglColor and CoglMatrix should all have "_init" or
"_init_from" functions to initialize all the structure members. (As
opposed to a cogl_xyz_new() function for CoglObjects). CoglColor
previously used the naming scheme "_set_from" for these initializers but
"_set" is typically reserved for setting individual properties of a
structure/object.
This adds three _init functions:
cogl_color_init_from_4ub
cogl_color_init_from_4f
cogl_color_init_from_4fv
The _set_from functions are now deprecated but only with a gtk-doc
annotation for now. This is because the cogl_color_set_from API is quite
widely used already and so were giving a grace period before enabling a
GCC deprecated warning just because otherwise the MX maintainers will
complain to me that I've made their build logs look messy.
The journal logs colors as 4bytes into a vertex array and since we are
planning to make CoglMaterial track its color using a CoglColor instead
of a byte array this convenience will be useful for re-implementing
_cogl_material_get_colorubv.
