Bug 882 - Allow child properties for containers implementing the
ClutterContainer interface (Øyvind Kolås)
* clutter/clutter-child-meta.[ch]: Base class for the metadata
of a ClutterActor inside a ClutterContainer; the ChildMeta
object implements a wrapper for storing data that is attached
to a ClutterActor only when it's part of a ClutterContainer.
The ChildMeta object is used to store the child properties
accessible through the ClutterContainer API.
* clutter/clutter-container.[ch]: Creates the ChildMeta for
each actor, in case the Container specifies the ChildMeta
type to use.
* clutter/Makefile.am: Add clutter-child-meta.[ch] to the build.
* clutter/clutter-marshal.list: Add the marshaller for the
ClutterContainer::child-notify signal.
* clutter/clutter-types.h: Declare ClutterContainer and
ClutterChildMeta to avoid recursive inclusion.
* clutter/clutter-container.c:
(clutter_container_get_type): Relax the precondition on the
implementations of ClutterContainer from ClutterActor to
GObject.
from interface (and all implementations of it) since this
functionality is now implemented using a global hash.
* clutter/clutter-box.c:
* clutter/clutter-group.c:
Language bindings will have problems with raise() and lower() bein in both
ClutterContainer and ClutterActor; hence, this patch renames
clutter_container_raise() and clutter_container_lower() to
clutter_container_raise_child() and clutter_container_lower_child(),
respectively.
Since ClutterActor directly calls ClutterGroup methods we need ClutterContainer
to provide them, so that every container actor behaves the same way.
This patch makes ::raise, ::lower and ::sort_depth_order virtual functions
of the ClutterContainer interface, implemented by ClutterGroup.
The documentation has been added and deprecation warnings have been added
as well.
Finding a child by its ID is a method that should be used by every container
and not only by ClutterGroup. This is needed to actually fix the picking in
ClutterStage.
