/**
* SECTION:cogl-display
* @short_description: Common aspects of a display pipeline
*
* The basic intention for this object is to let the application
* configure common display preferences before creating a context, and
* there are a few different aspects to this...
*
* Firstly there are options directly relating to the physical display
* pipeline that is currently being used including the digital to
* analogue conversion hardware and the screens the user sees.
*
* Another aspect is that display options may constrain or affect how
* onscreen framebuffers should later be configured. The original
* rationale for the display object in fact was to let us handle GLX
* and EGLs requirements that framebuffers must be "compatible" with
* the config associated with the current context meaning we have to
* force the user to describe how they would like to create their
* onscreen windows before we can choose a suitable fbconfig and
* create a GLContext.

/**
* cogl_display_new:
* @renderer: A #CoglRenderer
* @onscreen_template: A #CoglOnscreenTemplate
*
* Explicitly allocates a new #CoglDisplay object to encapsulate the
* common state of the display pipeline that applies to the whole
* application.
*
* Many applications don't need to explicitly use
* cogl_display_new() and can just jump straight to cogl_context_new()
* and pass a %NULL display argument so Cogl will automatically
* connect and setup a renderer and display.
*
* A @display can only be made for a specific choice of renderer which
* is why this takes the @renderer argument.
*
* A common use for explicitly allocating a display object is to
* define a template for allocating onscreen framebuffers which is
* what the @onscreen_template argument is for.
*
* When a display is first allocated via cogl_display_new() it is in a
* mutable configuration mode. It's designed this way so we can
* extend the apis available for configuring a display without
* requiring huge numbers of constructor arguements.
*
* When you have finished configuring a display object you can
* optionally call cogl_display_setup() to explicitly apply the
* configuration and check for errors. Alternaitvely you can pass the
* display to cogl_context_new() and Cogl will implicitly apply your
* configuration but if there are errors then the application will
* abort with a message. For simple applications with no fallback
* options then relying on the implicit setup can be fine.
*
* Return value: A newly allocated #CoglDisplay object in a mutable
* configuration mode.
* Since: 1.10
* Stability: unstable

* exception will be returned so you can handle the error gracefully
* and perhaps fall back to an alternative configuration.
*
* If you instead rely on Cogl implicitly calling cogl_display_setup()

* get an opportunity to handle that and the application may abort
