0cb0a841cc [animation] Enhance the bind API
Bug 1419 - Add clutter_animation_bind, rename clutter_animation_bind_interval

This is a different approach from the clutter_actor_animatev
vector variant.  The single call should be even easier on
automatic bindings, since calls can be chained like:

  new Clutter.Animation({object: myactor}).bind("x", 42).bind("y", 43);

Note clutter_animation_bind_property which took a ClutterInterval
is renamed to clutter_animation_bind_interval for clarity, and to
discourage use since there are friendlier APIs about.

156589fe3f [animation] Add Animation getter
If we are animating an actor using the clutter_actor_animate*() family
of functions we might want to expose a getter for the Animation instance
we are using, to avoid excessing bookkeeping.

44d0733665 [animation] Add an emitter for ::completed
The ::completed signal requires an emitter in case we want to stop
the animation and safely dispose it inside application code without
breaking invariants.

a5c88e62f2 [docs] Clarify Animation memory management
The memory management of the ClutterAnimation instances should be
heavily documented, given its "automagical" nature, so that other
people might understand it and avoid breaking it in the future.

2c95b378a5 [animation] Broken fixed:: properties
This commit yesterday:

[animation] Add vector variants for ::animate()

broke the "fixed::" attribute on properties in clutter_actor_animate(),
because the fixed:: part is still on the string when it checks to see if
it's a valid property the class knows about.

89e3e3a4cc [animation] Add vector variants for ::animate()
Bug 1438 - Implicit Animation API could use animatev variants

The clutter_actor_animate* family of functions use va_lists to
handle the property/value pairs for the final state of the
animation.

Language bindings have problems with variadic arguments functions,
and usually prefer vector-based API which allow a greater level
of control and conversion from native data types.

For each variadic arguments function in the clutter_actor_animate*
family there should be a vector-based version that takes:

  - the number of property/value pairs
  - a constant array of constant strings
  - an array of GValues

Most of the internal implementation can be refactored from the
current one, thus both the var_args and the vector entry points
share a common implementation of the code; then, both versions
of the API are just loops over a list of arguments.

Based on a patch by: Robert Carr <carrr@rpi.edu>

c0adf4582c [docs] Clarify clutter_actor_animate() behaviour
When calling clutter_actor_animate() on an actor that is being
currently animated the default behaviour is to update the duration
of the animation; the easing mode; update all the common properties;
and finally add the new properties.

This:

  clutter_actor_animate (actor, 500, CLUTTER_LINEAR,
                         "width", 100,
                         "height", 100,
                         NULL);

  clutter_actor_animate (actor, 250, CLUTTER_EASE_IN_CUBIC,
                         "x", 100,
                         "y", 100,
                         "height", 200,
                         NULL);

Is logically equivalent to:

  clutter_actor_animate (actor, 250, CLUTTER_EASE_IN_CUBIC,
                         "x", 100,
                         "y", 100,
                         "width", 100,
                         "height", 200,
                         NULL);

The documentation of the function should be slightly more verbose
in describing the default behaviour.

c5afd98416 Add gobject-introspection annotations
Add annotations such as (transfer-none) (out) (element-type ClutterActor),
and so forth to the doc comments as appropriate.

The annotations added here are a combination of the annotations previously
in gir-repository for Clutter and annotations found in a review of all
return values with that were being parsed with a transfer of "full".

0c7e4172ab [animation] Do not bind construct-only properties

7d7372af43 [animation] Move the alpha value to floating point
The current Alpha value is an unsigned integer that can be used
implicitly as a fixed point value. This makes writing an alpha
function overshooting below and above the current range basically
impossible without complicating an already complex code, and
creating weird corner cases.

For this reason, the Alpha value should be defined as a floating
point normalized value, spanning a range between 0.0 and 1.0; in
order to allow overshooting, the valid range is extended one unit
below and one unit above, thus making it -1.0 .. 2.0.

This commit updates the various users of the ClutterAlpha API
and the tests cases.

This commit also removes all the current alpha functions exposed
in the public API.

c096f41e70 [doc] Clarify the animation mode meaning
The animation mode parameters and properties are now slightly
anonymous unsigned longs, so we need to clarify in the documentation
that the user should either pass a ClutterAnimationMode value or
the result of registering an alpha function.

d02819949d Remove AnimationMode from the Animation API
The animation mode symbolic id might come from the AnimationMode
enumeration or from the clutter_alpha_register_*() family of
functions. For this reason, we should use a gulong instead of
ClutterAnimationMode whenever we have an "animation mode" parameter
or property.

068ba1caf0 [animation] Extend ClutterAnimation support to all objects
Instead of limiting the use of ClutterAnimation to ClutterActor
instances, relax the constraint to include all GObject classes.

ClutterAnimation is not using actor-specific API, since it is
only using properties.

The only actor-based API is the clutter_actor_animate() family
of functions.

60cfa5edb2 [animation] Use ClutterAnimatable inside Animation

Animatable interface, and if so delegate to it the computation
of the value along the interval initial and final value, depending

ff73fe3e1f Fix some animation_set_* functions so they cope if the value is the same
The following functions are fixed:

clutter_animation_set_actor
clutter_animation_set_timeline
clutter_animation_set_alpha

behaviour_set_alpha.

62cfc6487f Fix setting the mode on a ClutterAlpha created with animation_set_alpha(NULL)
It previously attempted to set the mode on the alpha using
clutter_animation_set_mode_internal, but this was setting the mode on
priv->alpha. At that point in the code priv->alpha is always NULL.

clutter_animation_set_mode_internal now takes a parameter to specify
which alpha to modify.

Bug 1014 - Clutter Animation API Improvements

	* clutter/Makefile.am:
	* clutter/clutter.h: Update the build

	* clutter/clutter-types.h: Add AnimationMode, an enumeration
	for easing functions.

	* clutter/clutter-alpha.[ch]: Add the :mode property to
	control the function bound to an Alpha instance using an
	enumeration value. Also add six new alpha functions:

		- ease-in, ease-out, ease-in-out
		- sine-in, sine-out, sine-in-out

	* clutter/clutter-deprecated.h: Deprecate the #defines for
	the alpha functions. They will be replaced by entries in the
	ClutterAnimationMode.

	* clutter/clutter-interval.[ch]: Add ClutterInterval, an
	object for defining, validating and computing an interval
	between two values.

	* clutter/clutter-animation.[ch]: Add ClutterAnimation, an
	object responsible for animation the properties of a single
	actor along an interval of values. ClutterAnimation memory
	management is automatic. A simple wrapper method for
	ClutterActor is provided:

		clutter_actor_animate()

	which will create, or update, an animation for the passed
	actor.

	* clutter/clutter-debug.h:
	* clutter/clutter-main.c: Add a new 'animation' debug note.

	* clutter/clutter-script.c: Clean up the alpha functions
	whitelist, and add the new functions.

	* doc/reference/clutter/Makefile.am:
	* doc/reference/clutter/clutter-sections.txt: Update the
	API reference.

	* doc/reference/clutter/clutter-animation.xml: Renamed to
	doc/reference/clutter/clutter-animation-tutorial.xml to
	avoid clashes with the ClutterAnimation section.

	* doc/reference/clutter/clutter-docs.sgml: Renamed to
	doc/reference/clutter/clutter-docs.xml, as it was an XML
	file and not a SGML file.

	* tests/Makefile.am:
	* tests/interactive/Makefile.am:
	* tests/interactive/test-animation.c:
	* tests/interactive/test-easing.c: Add two tests for the
	new simple animation API and the easing functions.

	* tests/interactive/test-actors.c:
	* tests/interactive/test-behave.c:
	* tests/interactive/test-depth.c:
	* tests/interactive/test-effects.c:
	* tests/interactive/test-layout.c:
	* tests/interactive/test-multistage.c:
	* tests/interactive/test-paint-wrapper.c:
	* tests/interactive/test-rotate.c:
	* tests/interactive/test-scale.c:
	* tests/interactive/test-texture-quality.c:
	* tests/interactive/test-threads.c:
	* tests/interactive/test-viewport.c: Update interactive tests
	to the deprecations and new alpha API.
