cogl: improves header and coding style consistency We've had complaints that our Cogl code/headers are a bit "special" so this is a first pass at tidying things up by giving them some consistency. These changes are all consistent with how new code in Cogl is being written, but the style isn't consistently applied across all code yet. There are two parts to this patch; but since each one required a large amount of effort to maintain tidy indenting it made sense to combine the changes to reduce the time spent re indenting the same lines. The first change is to use a consistent style for declaring function prototypes in headers. Cogl headers now consistently use this style for prototypes: return_type cogl_function_name (CoglType arg0, CoglType arg1); Not everyone likes this style, but it seems that most of the currently active Cogl developers agree on it. The second change is to constrain the use of redundant glib data types in Cogl. Uses of gint, guint, gfloat, glong, gulong and gchar have all been replaced with int, unsigned int, float, long, unsigned long and char respectively. When talking about pixel data; use of guchar has been replaced with guint8, otherwise unsigned char can be used. The glib types that we continue to use for portability are gboolean, gint{8,16,32,64}, guint{8,16,32,64} and gsize. The general intention is that Cogl should look palatable to the widest range of C programmers including those outside the Gnome community so - especially for the public API - we want to minimize the number of foreign looking typedefs.

Add a strong CoglTexture type to replace CoglHandle As part of the on going, incremental effort to purge the non type safe CoglHandle type from the Cogl API this patch tackles most of the CoglHandle uses relating to textures. We'd postponed making this change for quite a while because we wanted to have a clearer understanding of how we wanted to evolve the texture APIs towards Cogl 2.0 before exposing type safety here which would be difficult to change later since it would imply breaking APIs. The basic idea that we are steering towards now is that CoglTexture can be considered to be the most primitive interface we have for any object representing a texture. The texture interface would provide roughly these methods: cogl_texture_get_width cogl_texture_get_height cogl_texture_can_repeat cogl_texture_can_mipmap cogl_texture_generate_mipmap; cogl_texture_get_format cogl_texture_set_region cogl_texture_get_region Besides the texture interface we will then start to expose types corresponding to specific texture types: CoglTexture2D, CoglTexture3D, CoglTexture2DSliced, CoglSubTexture, CoglAtlasTexture and CoglTexturePixmapX11. We will then also expose an interface for the high-level texture types we have (such as CoglTexture2DSlice, CoglSubTexture and CoglAtlasTexture) called CoglMetaTexture. CoglMetaTexture is an additional interface that lets you iterate a virtual region of a meta texture and get mappings of primitive textures to sub-regions of that virtual region. Internally we already have this kind of abstraction for dealing with sliced texture, sub-textures and atlas textures in a consistent way, so this will just make that abstraction public. The aim here is to clarify that there is a difference between primitive textures (CoglTexture2D/3D) and some of the other high-level textures, and also enable developers to implement primitives that can support meta textures since they can only be used with the cogl_rectangle API currently. The thing that's not so clean-cut with this are the texture constructors we have currently; such as cogl_texture_new_from_file which no longer make sense when CoglTexture is considered to be an interface. These will basically just become convenient factory functions and it's just a bit unusual that they are within the cogl_texture namespace. It's worth noting here that all the texture type APIs will also have their own type specific constructors so these functions will only be used for the convenience of being able to create a texture without really wanting to know the details of what type of texture you need. Longer term for 2.0 we may come up with replacement names for these factory functions or the other thing we are considering is designing some asynchronous factory functions instead since it's so often detrimental to application performance to be blocked waiting for a texture to be uploaded to the GPU.

[cogl] Remove max_waste argument from Texture ctors The CoglTexture constructors expose the "max-waste" argument for controlling the maximum amount of wasted areas for slicing or, if set to -1, disables slicing. Slicing is really relevant only for large images that are never repeated, so it's a useful feature only in controlled use cases. Specifying the amount of wasted area is, on the other hand, just a way to mess up this feature; 99% the times, you either pull this number out of thin air, hoping it's right, or you try to do the right thing and you choose the wrong number anyway. Instead, we can use the CoglTextureFlags to control whether the texture should not be sliced (useful for Clutter-GST and for the texture-from-pixmap actors) and provide a reasonable value for enabling the slicing ourself. At some point, we might even provide a way to change the default at compile time or at run time, for particular platforms. Since max_waste is gone, the :tile-waste property of ClutterTexture becomes read-only, and it proxies the cogl_texture_get_max_waste() function. Inside Clutter, the only cases where the max_waste argument was not set to -1 are in the Pango glyph cache (which is a POT texture anyway) and inside the test cases where we want to force slicing; for the latter we can create larger textures that will be bigger than the threshold we set.

Adds CoglError api Although we use GLib internally in Cogl we would rather not leak GLib api through Cogl's own api, except through explicitly namespaced cogl_glib_ / cogl_gtype_ feature apis. One of the benefits we see to not leaking GLib through Cogl's public API is that documentation for Cogl won't need to first introduce the Glib API to newcomers, thus hopefully lowering the barrier to learning Cogl. This patch provides a Cogl specific typedef for reporting runtime errors which by no coincidence matches the typedef for GError exactly. If Cogl is built with --enable-glib (default) then developers can even safely assume that a CoglError is a GError under the hood. This patch also enforces a consistent policy for when NULL is passed as an error argument and an error is thrown. In this case we log the error and abort the application, instead of silently ignoring it. In common cases where nothing has been implemented to handle a particular error and/or where applications are just printing the error and aborting themselves then this saves some typing. This also seems more consistent with language based exceptions which usually cause a program to abort if they are not explicitly caught (which passing a non-NULL error signifies in this case) Since this policy for NULL error pointers is stricter than the standard GError convention, there is a clear note in the documentation to warn developers that are used to using the GError api. Reviewed-by: Neil Roberts <neil@linux.intel.com> (cherry picked from commit b068d5ea09ab32c37e8c965fc8582c85d1b2db46) Note: Since we can't change the Cogl 1.x api the patch was changed to not rename _error_quark() functions to be _error_domain() functions and although it's a bit ugly, instead of providing our own CoglError type that's compatible with GError we simply #define CoglError to GError unless Cogl is built with glib disabled. Note: this patch does technically introduce an API break since it drops the cogl_error_get_type() symbol generated by glib-mkenum (Since the CoglError enum was replaced by a CoglSystemError enum) but for now we are assuming that this will not affect anyone currently using the Cogl API. If this does turn out to be a problem in practice then we would be able to fix this my manually copying an implementation of cogl_error_get_type() generated by glib-mkenum into a compatibility source file and we could also define the original COGL_ERROR_ enums for compatibility too. Note: another minor concern with cherry-picking this patch to the 1.14 branch is that an api scanner would be lead to believe that some APIs have changed, and for example the gobject-introspection parser which understands the semantics of GError will not understand the semantics of CoglError. We expect most people that have tried to use gobject-introspection with Cogl already understand though that it is not well suited to generating bindings of the Cogl api anyway and we aren't aware or anyone depending on such bindings for apis involving GErrors. (GnomeShell only makes very-very minimal use of Cogl via the gjs bindings for the cogl_rectangle and cogl_color apis.) The main reason we have cherry-picked this patch to the 1.14 branch even given the above concerns is that without it it would become very awkward for us to cherry-pick other beneficial patches from master.

cogl: improves header and coding style consistency We've had complaints that our Cogl code/headers are a bit "special" so this is a first pass at tidying things up by giving them some consistency. These changes are all consistent with how new code in Cogl is being written, but the style isn't consistently applied across all code yet. There are two parts to this patch; but since each one required a large amount of effort to maintain tidy indenting it made sense to combine the changes to reduce the time spent re indenting the same lines. The first change is to use a consistent style for declaring function prototypes in headers. Cogl headers now consistently use this style for prototypes: return_type cogl_function_name (CoglType arg0, CoglType arg1); Not everyone likes this style, but it seems that most of the currently active Cogl developers agree on it. The second change is to constrain the use of redundant glib data types in Cogl. Uses of gint, guint, gfloat, glong, gulong and gchar have all been replaced with int, unsigned int, float, long, unsigned long and char respectively. When talking about pixel data; use of guchar has been replaced with guint8, otherwise unsigned char can be used. The glib types that we continue to use for portability are gboolean, gint{8,16,32,64}, guint{8,16,32,64} and gsize. The general intention is that Cogl should look palatable to the widest range of C programmers including those outside the Gnome community so - especially for the public API - we want to minimize the number of foreign looking typedefs.

Adds CoglError api Although we use GLib internally in Cogl we would rather not leak GLib api through Cogl's own api, except through explicitly namespaced cogl_glib_ / cogl_gtype_ feature apis. One of the benefits we see to not leaking GLib through Cogl's public API is that documentation for Cogl won't need to first introduce the Glib API to newcomers, thus hopefully lowering the barrier to learning Cogl. This patch provides a Cogl specific typedef for reporting runtime errors which by no coincidence matches the typedef for GError exactly. If Cogl is built with --enable-glib (default) then developers can even safely assume that a CoglError is a GError under the hood. This patch also enforces a consistent policy for when NULL is passed as an error argument and an error is thrown. In this case we log the error and abort the application, instead of silently ignoring it. In common cases where nothing has been implemented to handle a particular error and/or where applications are just printing the error and aborting themselves then this saves some typing. This also seems more consistent with language based exceptions which usually cause a program to abort if they are not explicitly caught (which passing a non-NULL error signifies in this case) Since this policy for NULL error pointers is stricter than the standard GError convention, there is a clear note in the documentation to warn developers that are used to using the GError api. Reviewed-by: Neil Roberts <neil@linux.intel.com> (cherry picked from commit b068d5ea09ab32c37e8c965fc8582c85d1b2db46) Note: Since we can't change the Cogl 1.x api the patch was changed to not rename _error_quark() functions to be _error_domain() functions and although it's a bit ugly, instead of providing our own CoglError type that's compatible with GError we simply #define CoglError to GError unless Cogl is built with glib disabled. Note: this patch does technically introduce an API break since it drops the cogl_error_get_type() symbol generated by glib-mkenum (Since the CoglError enum was replaced by a CoglSystemError enum) but for now we are assuming that this will not affect anyone currently using the Cogl API. If this does turn out to be a problem in practice then we would be able to fix this my manually copying an implementation of cogl_error_get_type() generated by glib-mkenum into a compatibility source file and we could also define the original COGL_ERROR_ enums for compatibility too. Note: another minor concern with cherry-picking this patch to the 1.14 branch is that an api scanner would be lead to believe that some APIs have changed, and for example the gobject-introspection parser which understands the semantics of GError will not understand the semantics of CoglError. We expect most people that have tried to use gobject-introspection with Cogl already understand though that it is not well suited to generating bindings of the Cogl api anyway and we aren't aware or anyone depending on such bindings for apis involving GErrors. (GnomeShell only makes very-very minimal use of Cogl via the gjs bindings for the cogl_rectangle and cogl_color apis.) The main reason we have cherry-picked this patch to the 1.14 branch even given the above concerns is that without it it would become very awkward for us to cherry-pick other beneficial patches from master.

CoglTexture *
Allow propogation of OOM errors to apps This allows apps to catch out-of-memory errors when allocating textures. Textures can be pretty huge at times and so it's quite possible for an application to try and allocate more memory than is available. It's also very possible that the application can take some action in response to reduce memory pressure (such as freeing up texture caches perhaps) so we shouldn't just automatically abort like we do for trivial heap allocations. These public functions now take a CoglError argument so applications can catch out of memory errors: cogl_buffer_map cogl_buffer_map_range cogl_buffer_set_data cogl_framebuffer_read_pixels_into_bitmap cogl_pixel_buffer_new cogl_texture_new_from_data cogl_texture_new_from_bitmap Note: we've been quite conservative with how many apis we let throw OOM CoglErrors since we don't really want to put a burdon on developers to be checking for errors with every cogl api call. So long as there is some lower level api for apps to use that let them catch OOM errors for everything necessary that's enough and we don't have to make more convenient apis more awkward to use. The main focus is on bitmaps and texture allocations since they can be particularly large and prone to failing. A new cogl_attribute_buffer_new_with_size() function has been added in case developers need to catch OOM errors when allocating attribute buffers whereby they can first use _buffer_new_with_size() (which doesn't take a CoglError) followed by cogl_buffer_set_data() which will lazily allocate the buffer storage and report OOM errors. Reviewed-by: Neil Roberts <neil@linux.intel.com> (cherry picked from commit f7735e141ad537a253b02afa2a8238f96340b978) Note: since we can't break the API for Cogl 1.x then actually the main purpose of cherry picking this patch is to keep in-line with changes on the master branch so that we can easily cherry-pick patches. All the api changes relating stable apis released on the 1.12 branch have been reverted as part of cherry-picking this patch so this most just applies all the internal plumbing changes that enable us to correctly propagate OOM errors.

We will then also expose an interface for the high-level texture types we have (such as CoglTexture2DSlice, CoglSubTexture and CoglAtlasTexture) called CoglMetaTexture. CoglMetaTexture is an additional interface that lets you iterate a virtual region of a meta texture and get mappings of primitive textures to sub-regions of that virtual region. Internally we already have this kind of abstraction for dealing with sliced texture, sub-textures and atlas textures in a consistent way, so this will just make that abstraction public. The aim here is to clarify that there is a difference between primitive textures (CoglTexture2D/3D) and some of the other high-level textures, and also enable developers to implement primitives that can support meta textures since they can only be used with the cogl_rectangle API currently. The thing that's not so clean-cut with this are the texture constructors we have currently; such as cogl_texture_new_from_file which no longer make sense when CoglTexture is considered to be an interface. These will basically just become convenient factory functions and it's just a bit unusual that they are within the cogl_texture namespace. It's worth noting here that all the texture type APIs will also have their own type specific constructors so these functions will only be used for the convenience of being able to create a texture without really wanting to know the details of what type of texture you need. Longer term for 2.0 we may come up with replacement names for these factory functions or the other thing we are considering is designing some asynchronous factory functions instead since it's so often detrimental to application performance to be blocked waiting for a texture to be uploaded to the GPU.

cogl: improves header and coding style consistency We've had complaints that our Cogl code/headers are a bit "special" so this is a first pass at tidying things up by giving them some consistency. These changes are all consistent with how new code in Cogl is being written, but the style isn't consistently applied across all code yet. There are two parts to this patch; but since each one required a large amount of effort to maintain tidy indenting it made sense to combine the changes to reduce the time spent re indenting the same lines. The first change is to use a consistent style for declaring function prototypes in headers. Cogl headers now consistently use this style for prototypes: return_type cogl_function_name (CoglType arg0, CoglType arg1); Not everyone likes this style, but it seems that most of the currently active Cogl developers agree on it. The second change is to constrain the use of redundant glib data types in Cogl. Uses of gint, guint, gfloat, glong, gulong and gchar have all been replaced with int, unsigned int, float, long, unsigned long and char respectively. When talking about pixel data; use of guchar has been replaced with guint8, otherwise unsigned char can be used. The glib types that we continue to use for portability are gboolean, gint{8,16,32,64}, guint{8,16,32,64} and gsize. The general intention is that Cogl should look palatable to the widest range of C programmers including those outside the Gnome community so - especially for the public API - we want to minimize the number of foreign looking typedefs.

Add a strong CoglTexture type to replace CoglHandle As part of the on going, incremental effort to purge the non type safe CoglHandle type from the Cogl API this patch tackles most of the CoglHandle uses relating to textures. We'd postponed making this change for quite a while because we wanted to have a clearer understanding of how we wanted to evolve the texture APIs towards Cogl 2.0 before exposing type safety here which would be difficult to change later since it would imply breaking APIs. The basic idea that we are steering towards now is that CoglTexture can be considered to be the most primitive interface we have for any object representing a texture. The texture interface would provide roughly these methods: cogl_texture_get_width cogl_texture_get_height cogl_texture_can_repeat cogl_texture_can_mipmap cogl_texture_generate_mipmap; cogl_texture_get_format cogl_texture_set_region cogl_texture_get_region Besides the texture interface we will then start to expose types corresponding to specific texture types: CoglTexture2D, CoglTexture3D, CoglTexture2DSliced, CoglSubTexture, CoglAtlasTexture and CoglTexturePixmapX11. We will then also expose an interface for the high-level texture types we have (such as CoglTexture2DSlice, CoglSubTexture and CoglAtlasTexture) called CoglMetaTexture. CoglMetaTexture is an additional interface that lets you iterate a virtual region of a meta texture and get mappings of primitive textures to sub-regions of that virtual region. Internally we already have this kind of abstraction for dealing with sliced texture, sub-textures and atlas textures in a consistent way, so this will just make that abstraction public. The aim here is to clarify that there is a difference between primitive textures (CoglTexture2D/3D) and some of the other high-level textures, and also enable developers to implement primitives that can support meta textures since they can only be used with the cogl_rectangle API currently. The thing that's not so clean-cut with this are the texture constructors we have currently; such as cogl_texture_new_from_file which no longer make sense when CoglTexture is considered to be an interface. These will basically just become convenient factory functions and it's just a bit unusual that they are within the cogl_texture namespace. It's worth noting here that all the texture type APIs will also have their own type specific constructors so these functions will only be used for the convenience of being able to create a texture without really wanting to know the details of what type of texture you need. Longer term for 2.0 we may come up with replacement names for these factory functions or the other thing we are considering is designing some asynchronous factory functions instead since it's so often detrimental to application performance to be blocked waiting for a texture to be uploaded to the GPU.

cogl: improves header and coding style consistency We've had complaints that our Cogl code/headers are a bit "special" so this is a first pass at tidying things up by giving them some consistency. These changes are all consistent with how new code in Cogl is being written, but the style isn't consistently applied across all code yet. There are two parts to this patch; but since each one required a large amount of effort to maintain tidy indenting it made sense to combine the changes to reduce the time spent re indenting the same lines. The first change is to use a consistent style for declaring function prototypes in headers. Cogl headers now consistently use this style for prototypes: return_type cogl_function_name (CoglType arg0, CoglType arg1); Not everyone likes this style, but it seems that most of the currently active Cogl developers agree on it. The second change is to constrain the use of redundant glib data types in Cogl. Uses of gint, guint, gfloat, glong, gulong and gchar have all been replaced with int, unsigned int, float, long, unsigned long and char respectively. When talking about pixel data; use of guchar has been replaced with guint8, otherwise unsigned char can be used. The glib types that we continue to use for portability are gboolean, gint{8,16,32,64}, guint{8,16,32,64} and gsize. The general intention is that Cogl should look palatable to the widest range of C programmers including those outside the Gnome community so - especially for the public API - we want to minimize the number of foreign looking typedefs.

Internally we already have this kind of abstraction for dealing with sliced texture, sub-textures and atlas textures in a consistent way, so this will just make that abstraction public. The aim here is to clarify that there is a difference between primitive textures (CoglTexture2D/3D) and some of the other high-level textures, and also enable developers to implement primitives that can support meta textures since they can only be used with the cogl_rectangle API currently. The thing that's not so clean-cut with this are the texture constructors we have currently; such as cogl_texture_new_from_file which no longer make sense when CoglTexture is considered to be an interface. These will basically just become convenient factory functions and it's just a bit unusual that they are within the cogl_texture namespace. It's worth noting here that all the texture type APIs will also have their own type specific constructors so these functions will only be used for the convenience of being able to create a texture without really wanting to know the details of what type of texture you need. Longer term for 2.0 we may come up with replacement names for these factory functions or the other thing we are considering is designing some asynchronous factory functions instead since it's so often detrimental to application performance to be blocked waiting for a texture to be uploaded to the GPU.

Add a strong CoglTexture type to replace CoglHandle As part of the on going, incremental effort to purge the non type safe CoglHandle type from the Cogl API this patch tackles most of the CoglHandle uses relating to textures.

COGL_DEPRECATED_FOR (cogl_object_unref)
cogl: improves header and coding style consistency We've had complaints that our Cogl code/headers are a bit "special" so this is a first pass at tidying things up by giving them some consistency. These changes are all consistent with how new code in Cogl is being written, but the style isn't consistently applied across all code yet. There are two parts to this patch; but since each one required a large amount of effort to maintain tidy indenting it made sense to combine the changes to reduce the time spent re indenting the same lines. The first change is to use a consistent style for declaring function prototypes in headers. Cogl headers now consistently use this style for prototypes: return_type cogl_function_name (CoglType arg0, CoglType arg1); Not everyone likes this style, but it seems that most of the currently active Cogl developers agree on it. The second change is to constrain the use of redundant glib data types in Cogl. Uses of gint, guint, gfloat, glong, gulong and gchar have all been replaced with int, unsigned int, float, long, unsigned long and char respectively. When talking about pixel data; use of guchar has been replaced with guint8, otherwise unsigned char can be used. The glib types that we continue to use for portability are gboolean, gint{8,16,32,64}, guint{8,16,32,64} and gsize. The general intention is that Cogl should look palatable to the widest range of C programmers including those outside the Gnome community so - especially for the public API - we want to minimize the number of foreign looking typedefs.
