If a single arbfp program is being shared between multiple CoglMaterials
then we need to make sure we update all program.local params when
switching between materials. Previously we had a dirty flag to track
when combine_constant params were changed but didn't take in to account
that different materials sharing the same program may have different
combine constants.
Previously the backend private state was used to either link to an
authority material or provide authoritative program state. The mechanism
seemed overly complex and felt very fragile. I made a recent comment
which added a lot of documentation to make it easier to understand but
still it didn't feel very elegant.
This patch takes a slightly different approach; we now have a
ref-counted ArbfpProgramState object which encapsulates a single ARBfp
program and the backend private state now just has a single member which
is a pointer to one of these arbfp_program_state objects. We no longer
need to cache pointers to our arbfp-authority and so we can get rid of
a lot of awkward code that ensured these pointers were
updated/invalidated at the right times. The program state objects are
not tightly bound to a material so it will also allow us to later
implement a cache mechanism that lets us share state outside a materials
ancestry. This may help to optimize code not following the
recommendations of deriving materials from templates, avoiding one-shot
materials and not repeatedly modifying materials because even if a
material's ancestry doesn't naturally lead us to shareable state we can
fallback to searching for shareable state using central hash tables.
This adds a way to iterate the layer indices of the given material since
cogl_material_get_layers has been deprecated. The user provides a
callback to be called once for each layer.
Because modification of layers in the callback may potentially
invalidate any number of the internal CoglMaterialLayer structures and
invalidate the material's layer cache this should be more robust than
cogl_material_get_layers() which used to return a const GList *
pointing directly to internal state.
This fixes the material backends to declare their constant vtable in the
c file with a corresponding extern declaration in the header. This
should fix complaints about duplicate symbols seen on OSX.
Instead of lazily incorporating combine constants as arbfp PARAM
constants in the source directly we now use program.local parameters
instead so we can avoid repeating codegen if a material's combine
constant is updated. This should be a big win for applications animating
a constant used for example in an animated interpolation, such as
gnome-shell.

This makes it so we don't consider LAYER_STATE_TEXTURE changes to affect
the arbfp code. This should avoid a lot of unneeded passes of
code generation for applications modifying the texture for a layer.
This makes it so we only notify backends of either a single material
change or a single layer change. Previously all material STATE_LAYERS
changes would be followed by a more detailed layer change.
For backends that perform code generation for fragment processing they
typically need to understand the details of how layers get changed to
determine if they need to repeat codegen. It doesn't help them to report
a material STATE_LAYERS change for all layer changes since it's so
broad, they really need to wait for the layer change to be notified.
What does help though is to report a STATE_LAYERS change for a change in
material->n_layers because they typically do need to repeat codegen in
that case.
This fixes a number of issues relating to how we track the arbfp private
state associated with CoglMaterials. At the same time it adds much more
extensive code documentation to try and make it a bit more approachable.
When notifying a backend about a layer being modified we now pass the
layers current owner for reference. NB: Although a layer can indirectly
be referenced by multiple layers, a layer is considered immutable once
it has dependants, so there is only ever one material associated with a
layer being modified. Passing the material pointer to the backends
layer_pre_change callback can be useful for backends that associate
their private state with materials and may need to update that state in
response to layer changes.
This renames the get_arbfp_authority function to
get_arbfp_authority_no_check to clarify that the function doesn't
validate that the authority cache is still valid by looking at the age
of the referenced material. The function should only be used when we
*know* the cache has already been checked.
We now pass a boolean to _cogl_material_pre_change_notify to know when
a material change is as a result of a layer change. We plan to use this
information to avoid notifying the backends about material changes if
they are as a result of layer changes. This will simplify the handling
of state changes in the backends because they can assume that layer and
material changes are mutually exclusive.
This adds an internal _cogl_material_get_layer_combine_constant function
so we can query the current layer combine constant back. We should
probably make this a public property getter, but for now we just need
this so we can read the constant in the arbfp backend.
We are going to start tracking more per-texture unit state with arbfp
private state so this adds an internal UnitState type and we allocate an
array of these when setting up a new private state structure. The first
thing that has been moved into this is the sampled boolean to know when
a particular texture unit gets sampled from in the generated arbfp code.
This avoids the use of of gcc constructor and destructor attributes to
initialize the cogl uprof context and optionally print a cogl uprof
report at app exit. We now initialize the uprof context in
cogl_context_create instead.
When building with --enable-profile we now depend on the uprof-0.3
developer release which brings a few improvements:
» It lets us "fix" how we initialize uprof so that instead of using a shared
object constructor/destructor (which was a hack used when first adding
uprof support to Clutter) we can now initialize as part of clutter's
normal initialization code. As a side note though, I found that the way
Clutter initializes has some quite serious problems whenever it
involves GOptionGroups. It is not able to guarantee the initialization
of dependencies like uprof and Cogl. For this reason we still use the
contructor/destructor approach to initialize uprof in Cogl.
» uprof-0.3 provides a better API for adding custom columns when reporting
timer and counter statistics which lets us remove quite a lot of manual
report generation code in clutter-profile.c.
» uprof-0.3 provides a shared context for tracking mainloop timer
statistics. This means any mainloop based library following the same
"Mainloop" timer naming convention can use the shared context and no
matter who ends up owning the final mainloop the statistics will always
be in the same place. This allows profiling of Clutter with an
external mainloop such as with the Mutter compositor.
» uprof-0.3 can export statistics over dbus and comes with an ncurses
based ui to vizualize timer and counter stats live.
The latest version of uprof can be cloned from:

When try_creating_fbo fails it deletes any intermediate render buffers
that were created. However it doesn't clear the list so I think if it
failed a second time it would try to delete the render buffers
again. This could potentially cause problems if a subsequent fbo is
created because the destructor for the original might delete the
renderbuffers of the new fbo.
Since a ClutterClone may be allocated a different size than its source
actor we need to apply a scale factor before painting the source actor.
We were manually using cogl_scale to do this in clutter_clone_paint but
really this kind of thing is best handled in an implementation of the
apply_transform virtual so Clutter can be aware of the transform for
other purposes, such as input transformations. Also we want to provide
an implementation of the get_paint_volume virtual where Clutter will
also expect to be able to use the apply_transform virtual to transform
the volume into its parent's coordinate space.
If a NULL clip is passed to clutter_stage_glx_add_redraw_clip then we
update the redraw clip to have width of 0, but we weren't setting
stage_glx->initialized_redraw_clip = TRUE. This could result in a full,
unclipped stage redraw being reduced to a clipped redraw.
This adds a verbose warning that will be displayed if
clutter_actor_allocate is passed an actor that isn't a descendent of a
ClutterStage. Layouting should always bubble up from a stage so this
condition is likely to indicate a buggy container that allocating a
child that it has already unparented.
When building actor relative transforms, instead of using the matrix
stack to combine transformations and making assumptions about what is
currently on the stack we now just explicitly initialize an identity
matrix and apply transforms to that.
This removes the full_vertex_t typedef for internal transformation code
and we just use ClutterVertex.
ClutterStage now implements apply_transform like any other actor now
and the code we had in _cogl_setup_viewport has been moved to the
stage's apply_transform instead.
ClutterStage now tracks an explicit projection matrix and viewport
geometry. The projection matrix is derived from the perspective whenever
that changes, and the viewport is updated when the stage gets a new
allocation. The SYNC_MATRICES mechanism has been removed in favour of
_clutter_stage_dirty_viewport/projection() APIs that get used when
switching between multiple stages to ensure cogl has the latest
information about the onscreen framebuffer.
This adds _clutter_actor_get_stage_internal to clutter-private.h since
we plan to use it in clutter-offscreen-effect when preparing to
redirect an actor offscreen.
* elliot/cookbook-animations-reuse:
cookbook: Added a recipe for reusing a complex animation
cookbook: Added id for section in "rotating an actor" recipe
cookbook: Simplified and clarified example code
cookbook: Cleaned up the "animations reuse" example
cookbook: Refactored reusable animation example
cookbook: Added example for animation reuse recipe
This recipe explains how to "reuse" the same animation
definition for different actors, by creating a new
instance of a "rig" (empty container) and animation
for the rig each time the animation is required.
An actor is then re-parented to the rig and animated
using it, rather than being animated directly.
JSON is used to define the rig + animator, to make
creating new instances of them simpler. The recipe
also discusses various caveats around using this
approach, rather than directly animating an actor.
Modified the "animation reuse" sample code to provide
a simpler example to explain in the recipe.
Also modified variable names to mirror the names used
for the previous "complex animation" example and added
some more comments, to further simplify and support the
recipe.
With some help from pippin, moved variable declarations
into more sensible positions within their functions,
changed a function name, and found a better way
to unref a script once its associated actor has
been destroyed.
Extracted the animation into its own JSON definition,
then create a new script and get the animation each
time a rectangle is clicked.
Removes the need to reparent onto the background and
copy property values to the rectangle after the animation,
and generally much cleaner.
Added an example showing how to reuse a ClutterAnimator
instance to animate multiple actors at different times
using an animatable rig, combined with reparenting.
Instead of doing the shlib trick, build ClutterJson (if needed) inside
the top-level clutter/ directory - similar to a non-recursive layout.
Hopefully, one day, we'll be able to do this with a real non-recursive
layout.
Let's try to keep Cogl's build as non-recursive as possible, in the hope
that one day we'll be able to make it fully non-recursive along with the
rest of Clutter.
The keysyms defines in clutter-keysyms.h are generated from the X11 key
symbols headers by doing the equivalent of a pass of sed from XK_* to
CLUTTER_*. This might lead to namespace collisions, down the road.
Instead, we should use the CLUTTER_KEY_* namespace.
This commit includes the script, taken from GDK, that parses the X11
key symbols and generates two headers:
- clutter-keysyms.h: the default included header, with CLUTTER_KEY_*
- clutter-keysyms-compat.h: the compatibility header, with CLUTTER_*
The compat.h header file is included if CLUTTER_DISABLE_DEPRECATED is
not defined - essentially deprecating all the old key symbols.
This does not change any ABI and, assuming that an application or
library is not compiling with CLUTTER_DISABLE_DEPRECATED, the source
compatibility is still guaranteed.
Make sure we don't use deprecated API internally by adding
CLUTTER_DISABLE_DEPRECATED to the AM_CPPFLAGS.
This requires adding -UCLUTTER_DISABLE_DEPRECATED to the introspection
scanner CFLAGS, otherwise the deprecated API will never be introspected
and the data generated will not be compatible.
When animating an actor through clutter_actor_animate() and friends we
might want forcibly detach the animation instance from the actor in
order to start a new one - for instance, in response to user
interaction.
Currently, there is no way to do that except in a very convoluted way,
by emitting the ::completed signal and adding a special case in the
signal handlers; this is due to the fact that clutter_actor_animate()
adds more logic than the one added by clutter_animation_set_object(),
so calling set_object(NULL) or unreferencing the animation instance
itself won't be enough.
The right way to approach this is to add a new method to Clutter.Actor
that detaches any eventual Animation currently referencing it.

If we're depending on an uninstalled .gir, use --include-uninstalled.
We need to explicitly specify Cogl to let the scanner know it's also
uninstalled.
