ClutterActor Invariants
|
||||
===============================================================================
|
||||
|
||||
ClutterActor behaviour has invariants that will be kept with the same API and
|
||||
ABI guarantees as the whole Clutter library.
|
||||
|
||||
Sections:
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
a. Public ClutterActor Flags
|
||||
b. Private ClutterActor Flags
|
||||
c. Private Pick Modes
|
||||
ii. Invariants
|
||||
iii. State changes
|

|

b. Removing from a container
|
||||
c. Initial state
|
||||
|
||||
i. Flags
|
||||
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
This section describes the various flags and enumerations used by
|
||||
ClutterActor.
|
||||
|
||||
a. Public ClutterActor Flags
|
||||
|
||||
CLUTTER_ACTOR_REALIZED
|
||||
Set by clutter_actor_realize(), unset by clutter_actor_unrealize().
|
||||
Means: the actor has memory associated to its paint cycle.
|
||||
|
||||
CLUTTER_ACTOR_MAPPED
|
||||
Set by clutter_actor_show(), unset by clutter_actor_hide()
|
||||
May only be set if CLUTTER_ACTOR_IS_REALIZED (actor).
|
||||
Means: the actor has been set as visible
|
||||
|
||||
CLUTTER_ACTOR_VISIBLE
|
||||
Implies: CLUTTER_ACTOR_IS_REALIZED (actor)
|
||||
&&
|
||||
CLUTTER_ACTOR_IS_MAPPED (actor)
|
||||
|
||||
CLUTTER_ACTOR_REACTIVE
|
||||
Set and unset by clutter_actor_set_reactive()
|
||||
Means: the actor is now reactive to events.
|
||||
|
||||
b. Private ClutterActor flags
|
||||
|
||||
CLUTTER_ACTOR_IN_DESTRUCTION
|
||||
Set internally by clutter_actor_destroy()
|
||||
|
||||
CLUTTER_ACTOR_IS_TOPLEVEL
|
||||
Set internally by the initialization of ClutterStage
|
||||
|
||||
CLUTTER_ACTOR_IN_REPARENT
|
||||
Set internally by clutter_actor_reparent()
|
||||
|
||||
CLUTTER_ACTOR_SYNC_MATRICES
|
||||
Set internally by ClutterStage implementations
|
||||
Means: the size of the stage changed and the viewport must be
|
||||
synchronized to the new size
|
||||
|
||||
CLUTTER_ACTOR_IN_PAINT:
|
||||
Set internally by clutter_actor_paint()
|
||||
|
||||
CLUTTER_ACTOR_IN_RELAYOUT
|
||||
Set internally by clutter_relayout()
|
||||
|
||||
c. Private Pick Modes
|
||||
|
||||
CLUTTER_PICK_NONE
|
||||
No pick operation is performed during the paint
|
||||
|
||||
CLUTTER_PICK_REACTIVE
|
||||
Only reactive actors will be picked
|
||||
|
||||
CLUTTER_PICK_ALL
|
||||
All visible actors will be picked
|
||||
|
||||
ii. Invariants
|
||||
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
This section describes the various constraints and invariants on ClutterActor.
|
||||
|
||||
In the following
|
||||
|
||||
A => B means if A is true then B is true
|
||||
A <=> B means A is true if and only if B is true
|
||||
(equivalent to A => B && A <= B)
|
||||
|
||||
1) CLUTTER_ACTOR_IN_DESTRUCTION => !CLUTTER_ACTOR_IS_MAPPED (actor) &&
|
||||
!CLUTTER_ACTOR_IS_REALIZED (actor)
|
||||
|
||||
clutter_actor_destroy() will cause an actor to be hidden
|
||||
and unrealized.
|
||||
|
||||
2) CLUTTER_ACTOR_IS_MAPPED (actor) => CLUTTER_ACTOR_IS_REALIZED (actor)
|
||||
|
||||
calling clutter_actor_show() on an unrealized actor will cause
|
||||
a realization to happen.
|
||||
|
||||
3) if clutter_actor_set_parent (actor, parent):
|
||||
CLUTTER_ACTOR_IS_REALIZED (parent) => CLUTTER_ACTOR_IS_REALIZED (actor)
|
||||
|
||||
calling clutter_actor_set_parent() on an actor and a realized
|
||||
parent will cause a realization on the actor.
|
||||
|
||||
4) if clutter_actor_unparent (actor):
|
||||
CLUTTER_ACTOR_IS_MAPPED (actor) <=> CLUTTER_ACTOR_IN_REPARENT
|
||||
|
||||
calling clutter_actor_unparent() on an actor will hide the actor;
|
||||
calling clutter_actor_reparent() on an actor will leave the actor
|
||||
in the same state.
|
||||
|
||||
iii. State changes
|
||||
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
clutter_actor_show:
|
||||
1. if !CLUTTER_ACTOR_REALIZED calls clutter_actor_realize
|
||||
2. sets CLUTTER_ACTOR_MAPPED
|
||||
|
||||
clutter_actor_hide:
|
||||
1. sets !CLUTTER_ACTOR_MAPPED
|
||||
|
||||
clutter_actor_destroy:
|
||||
1. sets CLUTTER_ACTOR_IN_DESTRUCTION
|
||||
|
||||
clutter_actor_realize:
|
||||
sets CLUTTER_ACTOR_REALIZED
|
||||
|
||||
clutter_actor_unrealized:
|
||||
1. if CLUTTER_ACTOR_MAPPED calls clutter_actor_hide
|
||||
2. sets !CLUTTER_ACTOR_REALIZED
|
||||
|
||||
clutter_actor_set_parent:
|
||||
1. sets actor->parent
|
||||
2. if parent is CLUTTER_ACTOR_REALIZED calls clutter_actor_realize
|
||||
3. if actor->show_on_set_parent is TRUE calls clutter_actor_show
|
||||
|
||||
clutter_actor_unset_parent:
|
||||
1. unsets actor->parent
|
||||
2. if !CLUTTER_ACTOR_IN_REPARENT calls clutter_actor_hide
|
||||
|
||||
clutter_actor_reparent:
|
||||
sets CLUTTER_ACTOR_IN_REPARENT
|
||||
equivalent to:
|
||||
clutter_actor_unparent
|
||||
clutter_actor_set_parent
|
||||
|
||||
iv. Responsibilities of a ClutterActor
|
||||
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
a. Adding to a container
|
||||
|
||||
When adding an actor to a container, the container must:
|
||||
|
||||
1. call clutter_actor_set_parent (actor, container)
|
||||
2. call clutter_actor_queue_relayout (container)
|
||||
|
||||
b. Removing from a container
|
||||
|
||||
When removing an actor from a container, the container must:
|
||||
|
||||
1. call clutter_actor_unparent (actor)
|
||||
2. call clutter_actor_queue_relayout (container)
|
||||
|
||||
Notes:
|
||||
|
||||
* here a container actor is any actor that contains children actors; it
|
||||
does not imply the implementation of the ClutterContainer interface.
|
||||
|
||||
* clutter_actor_unparent() will hide the actor except in the special case
|
||||
when CLUTTER_ACTOR_IN_REPARENT is set.
|
||||
|
||||
c. Initial state
|
||||
|
||||
When creating an actor, the initial state is:
|
||||
|
||||
1. !CLUTTER_ACTOR_REALIZED
|
||||
2. !CLUTTER_ACTOR_MAPPED
