The "should this implicit transition be skipped" check should live into
its own function, where we can actually explain what it does and which
conditions should be respected.
Instead of just blindly skipping actors that are unmapped, or haven't
been painted yet, we should add a couple of escape hatches.
First of all, we don't want :allocation to be implicitly animated until
we have been painted (thus allocated) once; this avoids actors "flying
in" into their allocation.
We also want to allow implicit transitions on the opacity even if we
haven't been painted yet; the internal optimization that we employ in
clutter_actor_paint() and skips painting fully transparent actors is
exactly that: an internal optimization. Caller code should not be aware
of this change, and it should not influence code outside of ClutterActor
itself.
The rest of the conditions are the same: if the easing state's duration
is zero, or if the actor is both unmapped and not in a cloned branch of
the scene graph, then implicit transitions are pointless, as they won't
be painted.

This should actually ensure that the calculations of the Z translation
for the projection matrix is resolved to "variable * CONSTANT". The
original factors are left in code so it's trivial to revert to the
trigonometric operations if need be, even without reverting this commit.
The ClutterActor::paint signal is deprecated, and connecting to it even
to get notifications will disable clipped redraws because of violations
of the paint volume.
The only actual valid use case for notifications of a successful frame
is on the ClutterStage, so we should add new (experimental) API for it,
so that users can actually subscribe to it — at least if you're writing
a compositor.
Shoving a signal in a performance critical path is not an option, and
I'm not sure I want to commit to an API like this yet. I reserve the
right to revisit this decision in the future.

Currently, clutter_canvas_set_size() causes invalidation of the canvas
contents only if the newly set size is different. There are cases when
we want to invalidate the content regardless of the size set, but we
cannot do that right now without possibly causing two invalidations,
for instance:
clutter_canvas_set_size (canvas, new_width, new_height);
clutter_content_invalidate (canvas);
will cause two invalidations if the newly set size is different than
the existing one. One way to work around it is to check the current
size of the canvas and either call set_size() or invalidate() depending
on whether the size differs or not, respectively:
g_object_get (canvas, "width", &width, "height", &height, NULL);
if (width != new_width || height != new_height)
clutter_canvas_set_size (canvas, new_width, new_height);
else
clutter_content_invalidate (canvas);
this, howevere, implies knowledge of the internals of ClutterCanvas,
and of its optimizations — and encodes a certain behaviour in third
party code, which makes changes further down the line harder.
We could remove the optimization, and just issue an invalidation
regardless of the surface size, but it's not something I'd be happy to
do. Instead, we can add a new function specifically for ClutterCanvas
that causes a forced invalidation regardless of the size change. If we
ever decide to remove the optimization further down the road, we can
simply deprecate the function, and make it an alias of invalidate()
or set_size().
Since we are trying to eliminate the ClutterGeometry type, we should
replace the only entry point still using it: the ::cursor-event signal
of ClutterText.
Instead of passing the cursor geometry, we should add an accessor
function.
The combination of signal and getter for the cursor geometry means that
we can deprecate ClutterText::cursor-event, and mark it for removal in
Clutter 2.0.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=682789
On the other backends we will get some sort of expose event after
showing the stage's window which will queue a redraw. These expose
events don't exist on Wayland so nothing will cause Clutter to queue a
redraw. Weston doesn't bother displaying anything for the stage's
surface until the first buffer is sent, which of course it will never
receive if Clutter doesn't paint anything. This patch just makes it
explicitly queue a redraw after the stage is shown so that we will
always pass at least one frame to the compositor.
The bug can be seen by running test-stage-sizing. That example doesn't
have any animations so it won't try to queue any redraws until
something interacts with it. On the other hand something like
test-actors works fine without the patch because it constantly queues
redraws anyway in order to display the animation.

If clutter is built with both X11 and Wayland support, prefer the
(more complete for now) X11 backend. This matches GTK+'s current
ordering.
This allows distributions to ship a clutter version with both backends

applications.
In the future, applications would be able to choose which backend
they prefer and in which order.

If an actor has not been painted yet, or it's not going to be painted,
we can ignore transitions queued on it.
By ignoring transitions on actors that have not been painted yet, we can
avoid doing work during the set up phase of the scene graph, as well as
avoiding actors "flying in" from nowhere.
Obviously, we have to take into account potential clones, so we need to
check that the actor is not part of a cloned branch of the scene graph,
as well as checking if the actor has mapped clones.
If an actor is unmapped then it won't be painted, so we can safely
short-circuit out of _clutter_actor_queue_redraw_full() if the mapped
flag is not set.
We need, on the other hand, make an exception for Clones, otherwise
they won't receive notification that the source actor has changed
and they won't be painted.
This allows us to ignore redraws queued on children of invisible
parents, and avoid traversing the scene graph.
Instead of using signal notifications, we should be able to keep track
of the clones of an actor from within ClutterActor itself, using private
API. There's no point in pretending that people can actually create a
Clone class out of tree, given the amount of invariants we have to punch
through in order to implement a proper replicator node of the scene
graph, so we can just skip the signal emissions and just do the right
thing at the right time.
More comments are warranted: these functions are pretty much full of
potential side effects, and I'd really like to avoid keeping everything
in my head forever.
Along with the comments and the type casting reduction, I sneaked in a
one line change that is clearly correct after reading the flow of the
whole thing: we queue only a relayout after three potential redraws have
been queued. If we manage to miss a redraw and yet still get a relayout
then it means that most of our assumptions are fundamentally wrong, and
that we ought to dump this whole business of computer programming, and
just go back to being a hunter-gatherer species.
Since XIQueryVersion, the bad API that it is, chooses the first client
version that it gets, we need to ensure that we pass XIQueryVersion the
new XI2.3 version, knowing fully well that Clutter won't be confused
by the new features.

Text exposed by the AtkText methods should be the text

This is also a security concern.
The original code inside ClutterActor that dealt with Transitions
stopping was written for the ::completed signal, thus the code was
correctly handling the lifetime of the instances; when we moved to the
::stopped signal, we assumed that it worked in the same way - with less
conditions to be checked, obviously, but fundamentally similar to the
::completed signal. Sadly, I screwed up the signal definition, and the
signal ended up calling our handlers, but not the default one that did
the cleanup and released references on the Animatable instance.
After fixing the Timeline::stopped signal, we can go back to the
previous code.
Thanks to Craig Hughes for the help in tracking down this mess.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=695158
A copy and paste thinko: the ::stopped signal is using the
ClutterTimelineClass.completed slot instead of the .stopped one,
thus preventing sub-classes of ClutterTimeline from overriding the
signal's default closure.
When stopping the transition we need to release the reference we
maintain while removing the Transition from the hash table inside an
actor. If we fail to do so, the Transition is never released, which
means we leak the Animatable instance we tied to it.

The ClutterOffscreenEffect.get_target_size() method has been deprecated,
and replaced by the get_target_rect() one. We can easily switch to the
latter, and avoid the deprecation warning.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=670004
The target size is not always enough, there are cases where the offset
used to paint the target must also be available for developers
implementing an OffscreenEffect.
The get_target_rect() method returns the rectangle used to paint the
target, with the offsets in the ClutterRect:origin and the texture size
in the ClutterRect:size fields, respectively.
The get_target_size() method should be deprecated, given that its
replacement is generally more useful.

If anything in the system changes the config for fontconfig then an
XSetting will be set to record the last timestamp of the config file.
This is presumably so that applications can be notified that it has
changed and can reload the configuration. However once this setting is
set it will remain set for the lifetime of the X server. This causes
Clutter to handle the setting during the initialisation of the
backend. Previously this would cause problems because Clutter would
end up creating the default PangoFontMap before the backend has
created the CoglContext. The PangoFontMap would in turn cause the
default CoglContext to be created. Clutter will then later create its
own CoglContext which means there will be two and the first one will
be leaked. Cogl currently can't really cope with multiple contexts
being created so it falls apart.
This patch fixes it to skip reloading the config for fontconfig if
there isn't a default font map yet. The config will presumably
naturally be read with the latest values when it is finally created
anyway so it doesn't need to be read immediately.

New experimental API is added to allow changing the way that redraws
are timed for a stage to include a "sync delay" - a period after
the vertical blanking period where Clutter simply waits for updates.
In detail, the algorithm is that when the master clock is restarted
after drawing a frame (in the case where there are timelines running)
or started fresh in response to a queued redraw or relayout, the
start is scheduled at the next sync point (sync_delay ms after the
predicted vblank period) rather than done immediately.

This allows us to report to the backend that the stage's back buffer has been trashed

This has been disabled since February 2008, on the grounds that XFixes
didn't work reliably for hiding cursors. This has almost certainly been
fixed then and seems to work entirely reliably across a number of X
servers released in the past few years, and is definitely better than a
1x1 black dot for a cursor.
Helpfully though, where the spec states that the cursor will be hidden
when inside the specified window or one of its children, it actually
only uses the window to look up the Screen, and hides the cursor across
the entire Screen. So, when using this, we also need to track crossing
events.
If it's still broken, this needs to be fixed in the X server.

Instead of placing the whole body of the function inside an if block,
let's make it clear what each part of the function does. Also, add more
comments.
GLib 2.36 will deprecate g_type_init() in favour of automatic
initialization through a constructor function. We need to add the
version check to avoid a compiler warning.
When setting an explicit transform with clutter_actor_set_transform()
and a non (0,0) pivot-point, clutter_actor_apply_transform() will fail
to roll back the pivot-point translation done before multiplying the
transformation matrix due to the "out:" label being slightly misplaced
in clutter_actor_real_apply_transform().
This works properly:
clutter_actor_set_pivot_point (actor, 0.5, 0.5);
clutter_actor_set_rotation_angle (actor, CLUTTER_Z_AXIS, 30);
This results in the actor being moved to the pivot-point position:
clutter_actor_set_pivot_point (actor, 0.5, 0.5);
clutter_matrix_init_identity(&matrix);
cogl_matrix_rotate (&matrix, 30, 0, 0, 1.0);
clutter_actor_set_transform (actor, &matrix);
This also add a conformance test checking that even when using a
pivot-point, no matter how a rotation is set the resulting
transformation matrix will be the same.

clutter_actor_allocate_preferred_size is supposed to use the fixed
position of an actor. Unfortunately, recent refactorings made it so

the fixed positioning of the actor instead.

When trying to clamp to pixel a box that is exactly in between 2
pixels, the clutter_actor_box_clamp_to_pixel() function changes the

Here is an example :
ClutterActorBox box = { 10.5, 10, 20.5, 20};
g_message ("%fx%f -> %fx%f", box.x1, box.y1, box.x2, box.y2);
clutter_actor_box_clamp_to_pixel (&box);
g_message ("%fx%f -> %fx%f", box.x1, box.y1, box.x2, box.y2);
Here is what you get :
** Message: 10.500000x10.000000 -> 20.500000x20.000000
** Message: 10.000000x10.000000 -> 21.000000x20.000000
That is because of the properties of the ceilf and floorf function
used to do the clamping.
For example, ceil(0.5) is 1.0, and ceil(-0.5) is 0.0.
And, floor(0.5) is 0.0, and floor(-0.5) is -1.0.
To work around that problem this patch retains the distance between x
and y coordinates and apply that difference before calling ceilf() on
x2 and y2.

Let gesture subclasses override how the drag threshold should

its cancellation;
• CLUTTER_GESTURE_TRIGGER_AFTER is the default GestureAction behaviour,
where it needs to wait until the drag threshold has been exceeded
before considering the gesture valid;
• CLUTTER_GESTURE_TRIGGER_BEFORE will make GestureAction cancel
the gesture once the drag exceed the configured threshold.
For example, ZoomAction and RotateAction could set
CLUTTER_GESTURE_TRIGGER_NONE since the use of two fingers makes the
begin of the action more self-evident, while an hypothetical Tap
gesture may use CLUTTER_GESTURE_TRIGGER_BEFORE to cancel the tap if
the pointer moves too much.

On various systems, trying to release a mutex that hasn't been acquired
will result in a run-time error.
In order to avoid this, we trylock() the Big Clutter Lock™ and

clutter_threads_enter()

With Clutter ≥ 1.12, the idiomatic form is:

When the last touch has been released the stage on the
corresponding master device (eg. the virtual core pointer) is set

This is due to the fact that the master devices can send both
touch events and mouse events, forwarding events coming from the
attached slave devices.
To restore delivery of mouse events we need to ensure that the
stage is set on each ButtonPress, ButtonRelease and Motion event
coming from master devices.

The ClutterEventSequence structure is a fully opaque type; on X11, it is

EventSequence into a touch detail, to be used with the XInput API.

803b3bafb6 introduced a new issue for
multi touch events.
In the case where 2 touch events for 2 different touch points are
processed in the same iteration, a call to
_clutter_stage_remove_device() when processing the first event will
remove the stage setting of the InputDevice. That means Clutter will
skip the second event, because it can't find a stage to which relate
the event, so no related actor and so no emission.
To fix this we move the _clutter_stage_(add/remove)_device() calls
into the input device. This way the input device can find out exactly
when to call these functions (i.e. when no touch point were previously
active or when no touch point remain active).

Luckily for us, the CSS Transforms specification from the W3C provides
the decomposition algorithm, using the "unmatrix" code taken from the
book "Graphics Gems II, edited by Jim Arvo".
Once the matrices have been decomposed, we can simply interpolate the
transformations, and re-apply them onto the result matrix, using the
facilities that Clutter provides for interpolating between two known
GTypes.
Since Cogl version 1.11.2, Cogl no longer includes the EGL headers
from cogl.h if COGL_ENABLE_EXPERIMENTAL_2_0_API is defined. Instead
the application needs to include cogl-egl.h so that we can avoid
polluting the global namespace with X defines. Clutter defines the 2.0
define in its configure.ac and it is relying on Cogl to include the
right EGL header in clutter-egl-headers.h so we need to change which
header it includes.
When changing an implicit transition mid flight we may end up with an
easing state with a duration of zero milliseconds; this leads to the
implicit transition machinery setting the final state directly onto the
actor. If there is a running transition, though, we need to remove it
from the transitions table, otherwise it will keep running.
This regression happened when the update_transition() internal function
was merged into the create_transition() one.

PanAction is a GestureAction-subclass that implements the panning
concept for scrollable actors, with the ability to emit interpolated
signals to emulate the kinetic inertia of the panning. PanAction provides:
• pan signal, notifying users of the panning gesture status;
• pan-stopped signal, emitted at the end of the interpolated phase
of the panning gesture, if enabled;
• pan-axis property, to allow constraining the dragging to a specific
axis;
• interpolated property, to enable or disable the inertial behaviour;
• deceleration property, to customize the rate at which the momentum
of the panning will be slowed down;
• acceleration-factor property, applied to the inertial momentum when
starting the interpolated sequence.
An interactive test is also provided.

Add some accessors to simplify common tasks for GestureAction users:
• clutter_gesture_action_get_motion_delta() to get the delta
on the X and Y axis in stage coordinates since the last motion
event, and the scalar distance travelled;
• clutter_gesture_action_get_velocity() to get an estimate of the
speed of the last motion event along the X and Y axis and as a
scalar value in pixels per millisecond.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=681648
When appending (with a negative row/column parameter), the row/column
count should be incremented by 1, not 2. This also fixes layout errors
when using column/row spacing: The amount of extra space required was
calculated incorrectly due to the wrong column count.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=679990
When setting a drag handle, transform the original press
coordinates using the drag handle as reference instead of the
associated actor.
This causes the initial misplacement of drag handle in
example/drag-action when holding down the Shift key: the handle
gets placed at the main actor origin on the first drag event,
instead of following the mouse pointer.
All subsequent motion events already use the right actor when
transforming the coordinates, thus they are not affected.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=681746
If the DragAction has a drag handle that gets destroyed inside the
::drag-end signal handler, the destruction sequence will trigger a
callback we have in place to check if the handle is being destroyed
mid-drag, e.g. from a ::drag-motion event.
The callback on the drag handle destruction will check if we are still
in the middle of a drag and emit the ::drag-end signal to allow cleaning
up; the callback erroneously uses the drag handle as the argument for
the emit_drag_end() function — instead of the actor to which the drag
action has been attached. Also, by the time we emit the ::drag-end, we
are not dragging the actor any more, so we shouldn't be emitted the
::drag-end signal twice.
The fix is, thus, made of two parts:
- reset the in_drag boolean before emitting the ::drag-end signal
so that destroying the drag handle will not result in a double
signal emission;
- use the correct actor when calling emit_drag_end().
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=681814
If the actor has a fixed position set, but it's not using the BinLayout
alignment enumeration to set its alignment, then we force the alignment
factor to 0.0; this is consistent with what happens with an explicit
alignment of CLUTTER_BIN_ALIGNMENT_FIXED.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=682265
Event handling should only apply to editable ClutterText actors, but we
also have the :selectable property to care about.
The button/touch press should position the cursor inside an editable
ClutterText; the :selectable property should be used to allow selecting
the text, either through pointer or touch dragging, via the keyboard, or
by multiple pointer clicks. If neither of these two conditions are met,
the ClutterText should just propagate the event handling further.
Allow setting a ClutterRect on the drag action and force the
dragged actor's position to be always within that rectangle (relative
to the actor's parent).
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=681168
The boolean_handled accumulator will stop the signal emission if TRUE is
returned by a signal handler; the boolean_continue accumulator will stop
the signal emission if FALSE is returned. The first one is used for
event-related signals, while the latter is used for action-related
signals.
Only the signal connection. When using G_ENABLE_DIAGNOSTIC there will be
a warning for every signal connection.
We should try and discourage people from ever using the paint signal
ever again, until we can safely remove it in Clutter 2.0.
We cannot fully deprecate Geometry, because ClutterActor and ClutterText
are actually using the type in signals and properties; but we can
deprecate the API that uses this type, so that 2.0 will be able to avoid
it entirely.
The :clip property still uses ClutterGeometry, which is a very bad
rectangle type. Since we cannot change the type of the property
compatibly, we should introduce a new property using ClutterRect
instead. This also matches the ClutterActor.set_clip() API, which uses a
decomposed rectangle with floating point values, like we do with
set_position() and set_size().
Instead of only relying on the (now) deprecated BinAlignment.FIXED
enumeration value, we just ask the actor if a fixed position has been
explicitly set, under the assumption that if a developer decided to call
set_x(), set_y(), or set_position() on an actor inside a BinLayout then
she wanted the fixed position to be honoured.
This removes the last (proper) use of the BinAlignment enumeration.
The Geometry type is an *awful* representation of a integer rectangle,
as it uses unsigned integers for its size, leading to overflow issues
when unioning and intersecting. We have better rectangle types in
Cairo and Clutter, these days.
When dragging/scrolling using touch events, we want the same behaviour
than for motion events. We need to honor the user's calls to
clutter_stage_set_motion_events_enabled() to deactive event
bubbling/captured sequences on the actor located under the pointer and
just transmit events to the stage/grab actor.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=680751
We need to make sure that ClutterActor::transition-stopped is emitted
after the transition was removed from the actor's list of transitions.
We cannot just remove the TransitionClosure from the hash table that
holds the transitions associated to an actor, and let the
TransitionClosure free function stop the timeline, thus emitting the
::transition-stopped signal - otherwise, stopping the timeline will end
up trying to remove the transition from the hash table, and we'll get
either a warning or a segfault.
Since we know we're removing the timeline anyway, we can emit the signal
ourselves in case the timeline is playing, in both the implicit and
explicit cases.
The :transform property controls the modelview matrix of an actor; it
can be used to set a custom modelview matrix on the actor, as opposed
to the decomposed transformations (rotation, scaling, translation)
provided by the ClutterActor class.
The transitions we create implicitly should be removed from the set of
transitions associated to an actor; the transitions explicitly
associated to an actor, though, have to survive the emission of their
'stopped' signal.
We can remove the update_transition() private method, and move its
functionality inside the create_transition() private method, thereby
removing lots of duplicated code, as well as redundant checks on the
existence of a transition. This will allow handling transition updates
atomically in the future.
Another progress function from the CSS3 Transitions specification, using
a parametrices cubic bezier curve between (0, 0) and (1, 1) with two
control points.
(sadly, no ASCII art can approximate a cubic bezier, so no graph)
The cubic-bezier() progress function comes with a bunch of preset easing
modes: ease, ease-in, ease-out, and ease-in-out, that we can map to
enumeration values.
The CSS3 Transitions specification from the W3C defines the possibility
of using a parametrized step() timing function, with the following
prototype:
steps(n_steps, [ start | end ])
where @n_steps represents the number of steps used to divide an interval
between 0 and 1; the 'start' and 'end' tokens describe whether the value
change should happen at the start of the transition, or at the end.
For instance, the "steps(3, start)" timing function has the following
profile:
1 | x
| |
| x---|
| ' |
| x---' |
| ' |
0 |---' |
Whereas the "steps(3, end)" timing function has the following profile:
1 | x---|
| ' |
| x---' |
| ' |
x---' |
| |
0 | |
Since ClutterTimeline uses an enumeration for controlling the progress
mode, we need additional API to define the parameters of the steps()
progress; for this reason, we need a CLUTTER_STEPS enumeration value,
and a method for setting the number of steps and the value transition
policy.
The CSS3 Transitions spec helpfully also defines a step-start and a
step-end shorthands, which expand to step(1, start) and step(1, end)
respectively; we can provide a CLUTTER_STEP_START and CLUTTER_STEP_END
enumeration values for those.
This patch brings 'enter-event' and 'leave-event' generation for touch
based devices. This leads to adding a new API to retrieve coordinates
of a touch point.

ClutterTexture is full of side effects that have been picked up over the
years; they make improving ClutterTexture harder than necessary, as well
as making subclassing impossible without introducing weird behaviours in
the child classes as well.
Since Clutter 1.10 we have the ClutterImage content type, which is
side-effects free, given that it just paints texture data using the
state of the actor.
Sadly, we still have subclasses of ClutterTexture, both deprecated and
not, so we cannot deprecate ClutterTexture right out; the type and
structures will still be available, like we do for ClutterGroup, but the
whole API should be moved to the deprecated section, waiting for the
time in which we can get rid of it all.
We need an alternative to the translation performed by the anchor point,
one that possibly applies to all three axes and is relative to the
pivot-point.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=677853
For some transformations we need to be able to set the Z component of
the pivot point.
Unlike :pivot-point, the Z coordinate is not normalized because actors
are 2D surfaces.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=677853
Given that the rotation transformations are now affected by the pivot
point, the Actor class should provide an accessors pair only for the
angle of rotation on a given axis.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=677853
The pivot point is a point in normalized coordinates space around which
all transformations revolve.
It supercedes the anchor point and the per-transformation center points
as well as the gravity settings, and tries to sort out the mess that
is the modelview matrix set up in ClutterActor.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=677853
The ClutterActor:depth property has always been a bit of a misnomer:
actors are 2D flat surfaces, so they cannot have "depth"; the property
defines the position on the Z axis.
Another side effect of the :depth property is that it decides the
default paint and allocation order on insertion, and that setting it
will call the ClutterContainer.sort_depth_order() method. This has
proven to be a fairly bad design decision that we strung along from the
0.x days, as it gives a false impression of being able to change the
paint and allocation order simply by changing the position on the Z
axis — something that, in reality, requires depth testing to be enabled
during the paint sequence of an actor's parent.
For 2.0 we need a clean break from the side effects, and a better
defined interface.
ClutterActor:z-position is essentially what ClutterActor:depth is, but
doesn't call into ClutterContainer, and has a more apt name.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=679465
The :position property on ClutterText clashes with the same property on
ClutterActor; it's also badly named, given that it represents the
cursor's position inside the text; finally, it does not match its
accessors, violating the API style conventions.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=679457
Overriding the default behaviour of ClutterDragAction::drag-motion is
currently a pain; you either need to subclass the ClutterDragAction and
override the class closure for the signal, or you need to connect to the
signal and call g_signal_stop_emission_by_name() - neither option being
particularly nice or clean. The established pattern for these cases
would be to have a boolean return value on the ::drag-motion signal, but
we cannot do that without breaking ABI.
To solve the issue in a backward compatible way, we should introduce a
new signal, ::drag-progress, with a boolean return value. If the signal
emission chain returns TRUE, the ::drag-motion signal will be emitted,
and the default behaviour will be honoured; if the signal emission chain
returns FALSE, instead, the ::drag-motion signal will not be emitted.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=679451
Acquiring the Clutter lock to mark critical sections is not portable,
and not recommended to implement threaded applications with Clutter.
The recommended pattern is to use worker threads, and schedule UI
updates inside idle or timeout handlers within the main loop. We should
enforce this pattern by deprecating the threads_enter()/leave()
functions. For compatibility concerns, we need internal API to acquire
the main lock during frame processing dispatch.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=679450
It can be useful to check whether a ClutterActorIter is currently valid,
i.e. if the iterator has been initialized *and* if the actor to which it
refers to hasn't been updated.
We can also use the is_valid() method in the conformance test suite to
check that initialization has been successful, and that changing the
children list through the ClutterActorIter API leaves the iterator in a
valid state.
The dispose sequence will keep the object alive, and we need to release
the last reference held by the StageManager before releasing control to
GObject.
The build should not add deprecated/ into the default INCLUDE paths, so
that deprecated headers are clearly separated; this will make it easier
to get rid of them when we branch out for 2.0.

Fixes#677966.
If the Interval used has a different type than the property we are
animating through a PropertyTransition then we should transform the
interpolated value before applying it, to avoid warnings down the
line.
The compute() method will cache the result, to avoid multiple
allocations and copies; this means, though, that we need to unset the
GValue when destroying the Interval.
Now that the interval can transform the initial and final values to the
type declared when constructing it, there is no need to check for the
value type inside set_initial_value() and set_final_value().
It's possible that GValues passed to a ClutterInterval setter are not
of the same type as the interval - for instance, if they come from
language bindings, or from untrusted sources; we can use the same
transformation functions we already use inside ClutterTransition to
ensure that the ClutterInterval always stores values of the same type
used to create the interval itself.
The ::stopped signal should be emitted at the end of the Timeline, after
the last ::completed signal emission, in order to have a proper
chronological progress of signal emissions:
started → new-frame → [ ... ] → completed → stopped
This way, ::stopped can perform a proper teardown of the state set up
during ::started, without interfering with the potential cyclical
emission of ::completed.
Calling clutter_point_free(clutter_point_zero()) or calling
clutter_rect_free(clutter_rect_zero()) should be safe, exactly like it's
safe to call those functions with a NULL argument.
The implicit animations only apply to properties that are documented as
'animatable'; the explicit animations apply to any property defined
through GObject or ClutterAnimatable.
For 1.x, we still have a duration of 0 msecs, but we have a valid easing
state, so we can change the easing parameters without calling save and
restore.
By checking if the interval is valid inside compute_value() we can catch
the cases where the interval values of a PropertyTransition are set
after the transition has been added to an Animatable instance - i.e. the
following code:
let transition = new Clutter.PropertyTransition();
transition.set_property_name('opacity');
actor.add_transition('opacityAnim', transition);
transition.set_to_value(0);
should be equivalent to:
let transition = new Clutter.PropertyTransition();
transition.set_property_name('opacity');
transition.set_to_value(0);
actor.add_transition('opacityAnim', transition);
instead of emitting a warning.
Once a ClutterPropertyTransition is attached to a ClutterAnimatable, if
no interval is set we can simply use the current state of the property
to define the from and to values. This allows the creation of property
transitions from the current state of the Animatable instance without
excessive verbosity.
ClutterContent implementations may allow repeating their contents when
painting; we should provide the repeat policy on the actor, like we do
for scaling filters and content gravity.
ClutterActor's x-align and y-align properties should be used to control
the alignment of the PangoLayout when painting it within a larger
allocation, and the ClutterText has the x-expand or the y-expand flags
set.
Fixed positions are defined to be initialized at 0,0 whenever
enabled, by setting fixed_position_enabled to true, or by setting
just one of x/y. This normally happens in the defaults, but we need
to make sure it also happens if a fixed position was once set but
then disabled. We do this by always resetting it back to 0,0 when
fixed_position_set is unset.
Instead of showing the full timestamp for debugging messages that happen
within a second, showing the delta from the previous full timestamp can
be more useful when debugging; this allows immediately seeing the time
difference, instead of doing the math in our heads.
Only for debug builds, the debug name should include a) actor name, b)
type name, and c) pointer address.
For non-debug builds we can live with the actor/type name.
ClutterGridLayout is port of GtkGrid to a Clutter layout manager. All

The plain C bytes array, while convenient from a C perspective, is not
well handled by language bindings: the length of the array is not
specified, and it's only just implied by the image data size, rowstride,
and pixel format.
GBytes is a read-only bytes buffer that has an implicit length; we can
use it as the storage medium so that language bindings can actually
function correctly.
This will ensure that we have a CoglContext, albeit the stub winsys one,

exhausted or when the timeline has been programmatically stopped by

Ensure that resizing transitions smoothly when switching between major
axis; the allocation aspect ratio is not important: it's the size of the
allocation that dictates the major axis.
It's similar to to the implicit animation API of ClutterActor and
compatible to deprecated API of ClutterBoxLayout and
ClutterTableLayout.
It adds :use-animations, :easing-mode, :easing-duration and
:easing-delay properties to control animations when allocation of a
child has changed. Layout manager implementers should call
use_animations = clutter_layout_manager_get_easing_state (manager,

The example code that is meant to be XIncluded into the API reference
should not be part of the interactive test suite: it's code that it is

test suite should be allowed to be lean and test behaviour even in nasty
ways. In short: the test suite should not be the place where we show off
idiomatic code for educational purposes.
The introspection scanner has become slightly more annoying, in the hope
that people start fixing their annotations. As it turns out, it was the
right move.
It's time. Now that we have clutter_actor_allocate() respecting the
easing state of an actor, and that the LayoutManager animation virtual
functions have been deprecated, we can put ClutterAlpha on the chopping
block, and be done with it, once and for all.
So long, ClutterAlpha; and thanks for all the fish.
This semi-aborted API was broken for various reasons:
- it strongly depended on ClutterAlpha, a class we're trying to
deprecate;
- it requires a lot of boilerplate and copy-and-paste code;
- it requires a full relayout of the actor tree for something
that ought to be automatically handled by ClutterActor.
Now that clutter_actor_allocate() handles transitions using the easing
state of the actor, we can deprecate the LayoutManager API for the 1.x
series, and remove it for the 2.x series.
BoxLayout will use the easing state of the children it's allocating; the
current API is re-implemented in terms of an implicit easing state
forced on each child prior to allocating it.
Calling clutter_actor_allocate() should transition between the current
allocation and the new allocation, by using the defined implementation
of the easing state.
This means that:
clutter_actor_save_easing_state (actor);
clutter_actor_allocate (actor, &new_alloc, flags);
clutter_actor_restore_easing_state (actor);
will cause "actor" to transition between the current allocation and the
desired new allocation.
The trick is to ensure that this happens without invalidating the
entire actor tree, but only the portion of the tree that has the
transitioned actor as the local root. For this reason, we just call the
allocate() implementation from within the transition frame advancement,
without invalidating flags: the actor, after all, *has* a valid
allocation for the duration of the transition.
The :x-expand and :y-expand flags on ClutterActor are used to signal
that an actor should expand horizontally and/or vertically - i.e. that
its parent's layout management policy should try to assign extra space
to the actor when allocating it.
The expand flags are automatic: when set on a leaf node in the actor
tree, they will bubble up through the parent and grandparents up to the
top level actor; during allocation, the actors with children will lazily
compute whether their children needs to expand.
The TransitionGroup class is a logical container for running multiple
transitions.
TransitionGroup is not a Score: it is a Transition that advances each
Transition it contains using the delta between frames, and ensures that
all transitions are in a consistent state; these transitions are not
advanced by the master clock.
There are cases when we want to advance a timeline from another time
source. We cannot use _clutter_timeline_do_tick() directly, as that
assumes that the timeline is already playing, so we'll need to create a
wrapper that toggles the playing flag around it.
Given that we can create a ClutterInterval without an initial and final
values using g_object_new(), it stands to reason that we ought to be
able to create an instance when passing NULL GValue pointers to the
new_with_values() constructor as well.
We tend to use float comparison for structured data types like Vertex,
Point, and Size; we should take into consideration fluctuations in the
floating point representation as well.
Instead of a single new() constructor that both allocates and
initializes, split the allocation and initialization into two separate
functions for types that are typically used on the stack, and rarely
allocated on the heap, like ClutterPoint and friends.
This is also applied retroactively to ClutterActorBox and ClutterVertex,
given that the same considerations on usage apply to them as well; we
can add a return value to clutter_actor_box_init() and
clutter_vertex_init() in an ABI-compatible way, so that
clutter_actor_box_new() and clutter_vertex_new() can be effectively
reimplemented as "init (alloc ())".
Using a compound type property for position and size has various
advantages: it reduces the amount of checks; it reduces the amount
of notify signals to connect to; it reduces the amount of transitions
generated.
The ClutterCanvas content implementation should be used instead, to
avoid stringing along the ClutterTexture API and implementation.
This change requires some minor surgery, as the deprecated section
already contains an header for the previously deprecated methods; plus,
we don't want to deprecate clutter_cairo_set_source_color(). This means
creating a new header to be used for Cairo-related API.
The get_distance() API uses machine integers to compute the distance;
this means that on 32bit we can overflow the integer size. This gets
hidden by the fact that get_distance() returns an unsigned integer as
well.
In reality, ClutterPath is an unmitigated mess, and the only way to
actually fix it is to break API.

This commit adds a further conditional check for calling
clutter_actor_show() when adding a child to an actor. We cannot
unconditionally change the value of the show-on-set-parent property like
the original solution of commit 81b19a78f5
as that breaks the document invariant that show-on-set-parent will be
changed iff an actor is without a parent.
The new ADD_CHILD_SHOW_ON_SET_PARENT flag is part of the default and
legacy flags, thus retaining the default behaviour when adding a child;
the flag is not passed when reordering the list of children, which means
we ignore the state of the show-on-set-parent property.
The conformance test suite fully passes, including the newly added test
to verify that changing the paint order does not trigger visibility.

It's possible to run Clutter with the 'null' input backend, which means
that clutter_device_manager_get_default() may return NULL. In the future
we may add a default dummy device manager, but right now it's safer to
just add a simple NULL check in the places where we ask for the device
manager.

The interface looked like a good idea around the time Clutter 0.2 was
out, but in reality we never had a proper, and supported implementation
outside of clutter-gst - thus, ClutterMedia was acting like a wrapper
around GStreamer, leading to hilarious issues of impedence mismatch
between API and all sorts of indirection issues typical of wrong
abstractions.
In theory, ClutterMedia should have been deprecated and removed before
we hit 1.0, but we kept flip-flopping on the issue.
For 2.0, it's time to take it out.
And shoot it in the face.
It's been a year and change, and two stable releases, since we
introduced the paint volume mechanism to allow actors to paint outside
their allocation safely in environments that support clipped redraws.
The time has come to flip the switch, and return a valid paint volume,
matching the actor's allocation, by default - at least for Actor
instances from classes that do not override paint() and
get_paint_volume().
If an actor has a paint signal handler then it's the user responsability
not to paint outside the allocation - and to suffer the consequences of
doing so; in an ideal world, paint() would not be a signal in the first
place anyway. Plus, the idea that painting can happen at any time and
still have a valid surface greatly conflicts with the design goal of
making Clutter's rendering operations fully retained into a render tree.
We can still revert this commit before spinning 1.12, if need be.
When removing the last Action, Constraint, or Effect, we should also be
clearing the corresponding MetaGroup: code inside ClutterActor relies on
NULL checks, and changing them all to check for NULL && n_items == 0
would not be fun.

We need to remove the transition only if the current repeat is equal to
the number of repeats, and if the transition was marked as remove on
complete. Otherwise, the transition has to remain where it is.
The opacity internal setter will do it for us, and it will take into
consideration any eventual flatten effect applied to the actor.
This unbreaks the actor-offscreen-redirect conformance test.
The get_geometry() implementation is broken on multi-head systems; the
only solution is to use XRandR to get the size of the CRTC that contains
the stage.
In XInput 2, the proximity events of XInput 1 have been replaced by an
axis on a valuator class. This means that, on devices that support
proximity information, for instance pens of a tablet, you will start
receiving events with the distance as an axis value - similarly to how
the pressure and tilt are presented in the API.
We were using g_list_foreach() prior to the first Apocalypse, and that
function is resilient against changes to the list while iterating it;
since we are not using a GList any more, we need handle this case
ourselves.
This also avoids the warning
Cogl-WARNING **: ./cogl-buffer.c:215: GL error (1285): Out of memory

When the easing state has a duration of zero milliseconds we can skip
the entire create_transition() call inside set_width() and set_height(),
to avoid what may be a costly call to get_preferred_*.
If we update a transition that is currently playing, we need to check
the current easing state, and look at the eventual duration, in case
the user wants to cancel the transition.
Instead of checking the duration of the current easing state we should
check if there's a transition in progress, and update it
unconditionally.
If there is no easing state, or the easing state has a duration of zero
milliseconds, then create_transition() should bail out early and set the
requested final state.
This allows us to write:
clutter_actor_save_easing_state (actor);
clutter_actor_set_x (actor, 200);
clutter_actor_restore_easing_state (actor);
[...]
clutter_actor_set_x (actor, 100);
and have the second set_x() update the easing in progress, instead of
being ignored.

This patch fixes clutter to not crash when multiple animations share

Some of the Clutter code was using GL types for the primitive types
such as GLint and GLubyte and then passing these to Cogl. This doesn't
make much sense because the Cogl functions directly take native C
types. This patch just replaces them with either a native C type or a
glib type.
Some of the cogl conformance tests are trying to directly call GL for
example to test creating a foreign texture. These tests have been
changed to manually define the GL enum values instead of relying on a
GL header to define them.
This is necessary because Cogl may soon stop including a GL header
from its public headers.

Should not have been there in the first place: the animatable will be
set either using ClutterTransition API, or when adding the transition
to a ClutterActor.
When adding a transition to a ClutterActor, the actor should hold a
reference on it, and release it only when we remove it. This makes
transitions just like other objects held by ClutterActor.
The ::completed signal emission is part of the current cycle; repeating,
like the automatic reverse of the timeline's direction, happens after
the ::completed chain of handlers has been called.
We still use XKeycodeToKeysym() in a fallback path in case we're not
running on a decent enough system; XKeycodeToKeysym() is deprecated as
of version 1.12 of the X server, but since I don't want to copy a bunch
of code from GDK or, god forbid, from Xlib, for a fallback path, it's
probably more reasonable to just silence the compiler warnings - at
least until we can drop all the X compatibility crap, and just use
modern, or semi-modern, API.
Some events may contain precise scrolling information coming from
devices like trackpads and touchscreens. ClutterEvent should allow
setting and getting this information.
While you can get a per-transition notification of completion, it can be
convenient to also have a way to notify that all the transitions
involving an actor are complete. A simple signal triggered by the
removal of the last transition fits the bill pretty neatly.

Yes, it's not really the proper GL name for a linear-on-every-axis of a
texture plus linear-between-mipmap-levels minification filter, but it
has three redeeming qualities as a name:
- LINEAR_MIPMAP_LINEAR sucks, as it introduces GL concepts like
mipmaps in the API naming, while we're trying to avoid that;
- people using GL already know what 'trilinear' means in this context
without going all Khronos on their asses;
- we're using 2D textures anyway, so 'linear on two axes and linear
between mipmap levels' can be effectively approximated to
'trilinear'.
I mean, if even the OpenGL official wiki says:
Unfortunately, what most people think of as "trilinear" is not linear
filtering of a 3D texture, but what in OpenGL terms is GL_LINEAR mag
filter and GL_LINEAR_MIPMAP_LINEAR in the min filter in a 2D texture.
That is, it is bilinear filtering of each appropriate mipmap level,
and doing a third linear filter between the adjacent mipmap levels.
Hence the term "trilinear".

then the horse has already been flogged to death, and I don't intend to
be accused of necrophilia and sadism by flogging it some more.
Prior art: every single GL tutorial in the history of ever;
CoreAnimation's scaling filter enumerations.
If people want to start using 1D or 3D textures they they are probably
going to be using Cogl API directly, and that has the GL naming scheme
for minification and magnification filters anyway.
At least for the time being, we only expose the parts of the API that we
want to use internally and for new, out-of-tree Content implementations.
The full PaintNode tree API will be made public in 1.12 once we branch
master.
It's a bit late in the game for changing the emission of the paint
signal with actors that use paint nodes - mostly because we have both
implicit paint nodes (background color, content) and explicit paint
nodes (the paint_node virtual).
When we branch for 1.12 we can revert this change.
It's safer, and consistent with the rest of Clutter, to make sure that
the template pipeline we use for ClutterTextureNode has its wrap mode
set to clamp-to-edge.
Both ClutterCanvas and ClutterImage should use the minification and
magnification filters set on the actor, just like the use the content
box and the paint opacity.
The ::paint signal is the old way to paint an actor; the paint_node()
virtual function is the new way. It's still not possible to traverse the
whole scene graph and build a render tree of PaintNode instances, but
with this change we simultaneously cut out the ::paint signal emission
from the critical path for actors that are using the new PaintNode-based
API, and we retain backward compatibility in the interim period between
1.10 and 2.0.
Instead of our homegrown string building; this at least ensures that
we're generating proper data, instead of random strings. Plus, using
JsonNode and JsonBuilder, we can ask the PaintNode subclasses to
serialize themselves in a sensible way.
ClutterContent is an interface for creating delegate objects that handle
what an actor is going to paint.
Since they are a newly added type, they only hook into the new PaintNode
based API.
The position and size of the content is controlled in part by the
content's own preferred size, and by the ClutterContentGravity
enumeration.
The ::paint-node virtual inside ClutterActor is what we want people to
use when painting their actors.
Right now, it's a new code path, that gets called while painting; the
paint_node() implementation should only paint the actor itself, and not
its children — they will get their own paint_node() called when needed.
Internally, ClutterActor will automatically create a dummy PaintNode and
paint the background color; then control will be handed out to the
implementation on the class. This is required to maintain compatibility
with the old ::paint signal emission.
Once we are able to get rid of the paint (and pick) sequences, we'll
switch to a fully retained render tree.
Now that we have a proper scene graph API, we should split out the
rendering part from the logical and event handling part.
ClutterPaintNode is a lightweight fundamental type that encodes only the
paint operations: pipeline state and geometry. At its most simple, is a
way to structure setting up the programmable pipeline using a
CoglPipeline, and submitting Cogl primitives. The important take away
from this API is that you are not allowed to call Cogl API like
cogl_set_source() or cogl_primitive_draw() directly.
The interesting approach to this is that, in the future, we should be
able to move to a purely retained mode: we will decide which actors need
to be painted, they will update their own branch of the render graph,
and we'll take the render graph and build all the rendering commands
from that.
For the 1.x API, we will have to maintain invariants and the existing
behaviour, but as soon as we can break API, the old paint signal will
just go away, and Actors will only be allowed to manipulate the render
tree.
As it turns out, we do end up recursing inside the ::paint signal
emission - especially inside the conformance test suite.
This thoroughly sucks - and we'll only be able to fix it properly
when we bump API for 2.0.
ClutterActor should be able to hold all transitions, even the ones that
have been explicitly created.
This will allow to add new transitions types in the future, like the
keyframe-based one, or the transition group.
It should be possible to ask a timeline what is its duration, taking
into account eventual repeats, and which repeat is the one currently
in progress.
These two functions allow writing animations that depend on the current
state of another timeline.
It should be possible to set up the delay of a transition, but since
we start the Transition instance before returning control to the caller,
we cannot use clutter_actor_get_transition() to do it without something
extra-awkward, like:
transition = clutter_actor_get_transition (actor, "width");
clutter_timeline_stop (transition);
clutter_timeline_set_delay (transition, 1000);
clutter_timeline_start (transition);
for each property involved. It's much easier to add a delay to the
easing state of an actor.
Clutter is meant to be, and I quote from the README, a toolkit:
for creating fast, compelling, portable, and dynamic graphical
user interfaces
and yet the default mode of operation for setting an actor's state on
the scene graph (position, size, opacity, rotation, scaling, depth,
etc.) is *not* dynamic. We assume a static UI, and then animate it.
This is the wrong way to design an API for a toolkit meant to be used to
create animated user interfaces. The default mode of operation should be
to implicitly animate every state transition, and only allow skipping
the animation if the user consciously decides to do so — i.e. the design
tenet of the API should be to make The Right Thing™ by default, and make
it really hard (or even impossible) to do The Wrong Thing™.
So we should identify "animatable" properties, i.e. those properties
that should be implicitly animated by ClutterActor, and use the
animation framework we provide to tween the transitions between the
current state and the desired state; the implicit animation should
happen when setting these properties using the public accessors, and not
through some added functionality. For instance, the following:
clutter_actor_set_position (actor, newX, newY);
should not make the actor jump to the (newX, newY) point; it should
tween the actor's position between the current point and the desired
point.
Since we have to maintain backward compatibility with existing
applications, we still need to mark the transitions explicitly, but we
can be smart about it, and treat transition states as a stack that can
be pushed and popped, e.g.:
clutter_actor_save_easing_state (actor);
clutter_actor_set_easing_duration (actor, 500);
clutter_actor_set_position (actor, newX, newY);
clutter_actor_set_opacity (actor, newOpacity);
clutter_actor_restore_easing_state (actor);
And we can even start stacking animations, e.g.:
clutter_actor_save_easing_state (actor);
clutter_actor_set_easing_duration (actor, 500);
clutter_actor_set_position (actor, newX, newY);
clutter_actor_save_easing_state (actor);
clutter_actor_set_easing_duration (actor, 500);
clutter_actor_set_easing_mode (actor, CLUTTER_LINEAR);
clutter_actor_set_opacity (actor, newOpacity);
clutter_actor_set_depth (actor, newDepth);
clutter_actor_restore_easing_state (actor);
clutter_actor_restore_easing_state (actor);
And so on, and so forth.
The implementation takes advantage of the newly added Transition API,
which uses only ClutterTimeline sub-classes and ClutterInterval, to cut
down the amount of signal emissions and memory management of object
instances; as well of using the ClutterAnimatable interface for custom
properties and interpolation of values.
As a convenience for the C API.
Language bindings should already be using the GValue variants.
This commit also moves the custom progress functions out of the
clutter-interval.c, as they are meant to be generic interpolation
functions and not ClutterInterval-specific.
The ::paint, ::queue-redraw, and ::queue-relayout signals should be
marked as no-recurse and no-hooks; these signals are emitted *a lot*
during each frame, and since GLib has a bunch of optimizations for
signals with no closures, we should try and squeeze every single CPU
cycle we can.

ClutterScript should be able to automatically call gettext() and friends
on strings loaded from a UI definition, prior to passing the string to
the object it is constructing.
The basic implementation is trivial:
- set a translation domain on the ClutterScript instance
- mark the translatable strings inside the JSON data, like:
"property" : {
"translatable" : true,
"string" : "a translatable string"
}
The hard part is now getting the tools we use to extract the
translatable strings to understand the JSON format we use inside
ClutterScript.
Let's keep a budget of 16.6 milliseconds per frame, and reduce it by the
amount of time spent in each phase of the frame processing. If any phase
goes over the allocated budget then we use the diagnostic mode
facilities to warn the app developer.
It is sometimes useful to be able to have better control on when a
repaint function is called. Currently, all repaint functions are called
prior to the stages update phase of the frame processing.
We can introduce flags to represent the point in the frame update
process in which we wish Clutter called the repaint function.
As a bonus, we can also add a flag that causes adding a repaint function
to spin the master clock.
In theory, handlers connected to the ::allocation-changed signal may be
able to modify the actor's real allocation and allocation flags,
especially now that we use STATIC_SCOPE; let's avoid this, so that we
don't regret it later.
The show and hide implementation inside ClutterStage ended up being
recursive, and the hide implementation would actually show the children
of the stage unconditionally.
Whoopsie.
The ActorBox passed to the ::allocation-changed signal should be
annotated as STATIC_SCOPE, given that it's a pointer to a structure
inside ClutterActorPrivate - hence there's no risk of it actually being
freed from a signal handler. This allows the GSignal machinery to avoid
a costly copy/free for each signal emission.
If the redraw entry is not cleared, queueing a redraw from a signal
handler could reinsert the same object in the stage redraw list,
causing the segfault later (as the object is immediately freed)

We currently check for the IN_DESTRUCTION flag inside the
add_child_internal() function.
This check disallows calling methods that change the stacking order
within the destruction sequence, by triggering a critical warning first,
and leaving the actor in an undefined state, which then ends up being
caught by an assertion.
The reproducible sequence is:
- actor gets destroyed;
- another actor, linked to the first, will try to change the
stacking order of the first actor;
- changing the stacking order is a composite operation composed
by the following steps:
1. ref() the child;
2. remove_child_internal(), which removes the reference;
3. add_child_internal(), which adds a reference;
- the state of the actor is not changed between (2) and (3), as
it could be an expensive recomputation;
- if (3) bails out, then the actor is in an undefined state, but
still alive;
- the destruction sequence terminates, but the actor is unparented
while its state indicates being parented instead.
- assertion failure.
The obvious fix would be to decompose each set_child_*_sibling() method
into proper remove_child()/add_child(), with state validation; this may
cause excessive work, though, and trigger a cascade of other bugs in
code that assumes that a change in the stacking order is an atomic
operation.
Another potential fix is to just remove this check here, and let code
doing stacking order changes inside the destruction sequence of an actor
continue doing the work.
The third fix is to silently bail out early from every
set_child_*_sibling() and set_child_at_index() method, and avoid doing
work.
I have a preference for the second solution, since it involves the least
amount of work, and the least amount of code duplication.

GLib introduced macros that allows defining the lower and upper bounds
of the API to be used by application code.
The lower bound allows to define the minimum version that will trigger

This scheme allows gradually porting application code to a new version
of the API, especially in case of resynchronization after multiple

Now that ClutterActor has a default paint volume, subclasses may wish
to retrieve it without chaining up to the parent's implementation of
the get_paint_volume() function.
The get_default_paint_volume() returns a ClutterPaintVolume pointer
to the paint volume as computed by the default implementation of the
get_paint_volume() virtual function; it can only be used immediately,
as it's not guaranteed to survive across multiple frames.
Creating PaintVolume instances is not possible, and it's not recommended
anyway. It is, though, necessary to union paint volumes, especially with
2D boxes, in some cases.
Clutter should provide a simple convenience function that allows
unioning volumes to boxes in a moderately efficient way.

We cannot deprecate ClutterAlpha yet. We cannot also implement
ClutterAlpha in terms of ClutterTimeline, because multiple Alpha
instances can be attached to the same Timeline. So we can start
with a "soft" deprecation: just a warning in the documentation
stating that ClutterAlpha will be deprecated, and removed, in the
future, and that newly-written code should use ClutterTimeline
instead.
We can use ClutterTimeline and its progress mode inside
ClutterAnimation; obviously, we have to maintain the invariants because
of the ClutterAnimation:alpha property, but if all you set is the :mode
property using one of the Clutter animation modes then we can skip the
ClutterAlpha entirely.
Instead of having the easing functions be dependent of ClutterAlpha, and
static to the clutter-alpha.c source file, we should make them generic
and move them to their own internal header and source files. This will
allow to re-use them in the near future.
Since Cogl has started restricting what cogl 1.x api is exposed when
COGL_ENABLE_EXPERIMENTAL_2_0_API is defined and since we build all
Clutter internals with COGL_ENABLE_EXPERIMENTAL_2_0_API defined this
patch makes a first pass at reducing our internal use of the Cogl 1.x
api.
The most notable api that's no longer exposed to us internally is
the cogl_material_ api so this switches all Clutter internals to use the
cogl_pipeline_ api instead. This patch also makes quite a bit of
progress removing internal uses of CoglHandle although there is still
more to go.
The experimental cogl_texture_pixmap_x11_new() api was recently changed
to take an explicit context argument and return a GError on failures.
This updates Clutter's use of the api accordingly.
We were only exposing clutter_backend_get_cogl_context() if
COGL_ENABLE_EXPERIMENTAL_2_0_API had been defined but the CoglContext
api is also available if COGL_ENABLE_EXPERIMENTAL_API has been defined.
As it was it meant that code opting into the experimental Cogl api
but not limiting to the 2.0 only api would have to #define
COGL_ENABLE_EXPERIMENTAL_2_0_API before including clutter.h but make
sure it wasn't defined when including cogl.h which was particularly
awkward.
Recently the cogl_framebuffer_swap_* apis were moved into the
cogl_onscreen_* namespace since only CoglOnscreen framebuffers can be
double buffered. This renames all uses of the cogl_framebuffer_swap_*
apis in Clutter.
The experimental cogl_pipeline_new() api was recently changed so it
explicitly takes a CoglContext. This updates all calls to
cogl_pipeline_new() in clutter accordingly.

Unconditionally creating CoglPipeline and CoglSnippets inside the class

headless builds.
Our last resort is to lazily create the base pipeline the first time we

The allocation code for BoxLayout contains a sequence of brain farts

The origin of the layout is inverted, and it doesn't take into

padding or margin).
The pack-start property is broken, and it only works because we walk the
children list backwards; this horribly breaks when a child changes
visibility. Plus, we count invisible children, which leads to
allocations getting insane origins (either close to -MAX_FLOAT or
MAX_FLOAT).
Finally, the allocation is applied twice even for non-animated cases.

This converts the blur, colorize and desaturate effects to use
snippets instead of CoglPrograms. Cogl can handle the snippets much

The blur effect needs to pass a uniform to the GLSL shader so that it
can know the texture coordinate offset from one texel to another. To
calculate this the blur effect was previously using the allocation
size of the actor rounded up to the next power of two. Presumably the
assumption was that Cogl would round up the size of the texture to the
next power of two when allocating the texture. However this is not be
true if the driver supports NPOT textures. Also it doesn't take into
account the paint volume of the actor which may cause the texture to
be a completely different size. This patch just changes to directly
use the size of the texture.

All of the pipelines used for ClutterTexture actors share a common

If we have N children and the user passes N (or a number beyond N) to

This should avoid trying to fix the origin of a paint volume set from

Being able to easily set the number of repeats has been a request for
the animation framework for some time now. The usual way to implement
this is: connect to the ::completed signal, use a static counter, and
stop the timeline when the counter hits a specific spot.
In the same light as the :auto-reverse property, we can make it easier
to implement this common functionality by adding a :repeat-count
property that, when set, limits the amount of loops that a Timeline can
perform before stopping itself.
In fact, we can implement the :loop property in terms of the
:repeat-count property just by using a sentinel value mapping to
"infinity", and map loop=FALSE to repeat-count=0, and loop=TRUE to
repeat-count=-1.
The clutter_timeline_clone() method was a pretty dumb idea when it was

ClutterActor stopped requiring to override the map and unmap virtual
functions some time ago.
Now that ClutterActor implements the Container interface, overriding map
and unmap to control the MAPPED state of the children is pretty much
going to be a source of bugs and misunderstandings.
Plus, the ordering of the unmap, destroy, dispose, and finalize calls
should be be documented properly.
The documentation should clarify all that.
When calling clutter_actor_destroy(), ClutterActor calls
update_map_state() on itself to unset the REALIZED and MAPPED states,
prior to running the dispose() implementation.
The default dispose() will call remove_child() (either directly or
through the Container implementation), which will check for the MAPPED
state and then run update_map_state() again. We use the previously set
MAPPED state to decide whether or not the parent should queue for a
relayout/redraw when removing a visible children.
If the MAPPED flag was cleared prior to remove_child(), though, it'll
always be unset by the time we get to remove_child(), and this will
cause missing redraws/relayouts; we were ignoring this prior the
post-First Apocalypse changes because we were doing:
if (was_mapped)
clutter_actor_queue_relayout (parent);
clutter_actor_queue_redraw (parent);
which is obviously wrong. Once I removed that glaring brain damage from
the remove_child() implementation, bugs started appearing — bugs that
were probably the reason why we introduced that brain damage in the
first place, instead of checking the source of those bugs.
The obvious fix is to avoid clearing up the actor's state on destroy()
until we remove the actor from its parent. This also reduces the amount
of work we do, and the code paths that can potentially go wrong.
Since the code dealing with ClutterShader is pretty self-contained, now,
we can safely move it outside of the main ClutterActor source file and
into its own. This will allow us to just drop a bunch of files when
branching for 2.0.
The YUV support depends on the driver support, and not only not many
drivers support YUV natively: the supported colorspaces are pretty much
useless.
The proper way to do YUV to RGB colorspace conversion on the GPU is to
use a fragment shader; for that, ClutterTexture and Cogl provide enough
API to achieve a good result - see the Clutter-GStreamer implementation,
for instance.
ClutterFixedLayout is the default layout manager for ClutterActor.
Existing subclasses of ClutterActor will get a fixed layout manager
regardless of whether they are going to use it, but since it sets the
CLUTTER_ACTOR_NO_LAYOUT flag, it will introduce regressions on actors
that perform their own layout management.
The CLUTTER_ACTOR_NO_LAYOUT flag was a bit of a mistake in the first
place, as it was introduced as a last minute workaround in the 1.0
process to deal with broken stuff in Moblin. It's going to be a target
for deprecation towards a removal when we start the 2.0 process.
Iterating over children and ancestors of an actor is a relatively common
operation. Currently, you only have one option: start a for() loop, get
the first child of the actor, and advance to the next sibling for the
list of children; or start a for() loop and advance to the parent of the
actor.
These operations can be easily done through the ClutterActor API, but
they all require going through the public API, and performing multiple
type checks on the arguments.
Along with the DOM API, it would be nice to have an ancillary, utility
API that uses an iterator structure to hold the state, and can be
advanced in a loop.

During the gutting of ClutterBox, the destroy and dispose implementation

Symbolic names are better than magic numbers, even if they are

State changes on the Stage are currently deferred to the windowing

There's also the extra caveat for backends that state changes on a

requirement that needlessly complicates the backend code.

The only actor that results in a mix of the old Container API and the
new Actor API is ClutterStage. By inheritance, a Stage is a Group, but
we don't want it to behave like a Group - as it already overrides most
of the Actor API, and the reason why it was made as a Group in the
first place was convenience for adding/removing children.
Given that touching Group to make it aware of the new Actor API has
rapidly devolved into a struggle between a Demiurge that tries to
avoid breakage and a Chaos that finds new and interesting ways to
break ClutterGroup, let's declare API bankruptcy here and now.
ClutterStage should override ClutterContainer methods, and use the
layout management of ClutterFixedLayout as the proper class that it
was meant to be ages ago. Let ClutterGroup rot in pieces.
Now that we reinstated Group to its "former glory", we need to ensure
that applications using the deprecated containers with the new DOM API
in ClutterActor can actually work - or, at least, not break horribly.
This actually means making sure that ClutterStage and ClutterGroup can
cope with the DOM, while retaining their old implementations, as well as
their bizarre idiosyncrasies and their utter, utter brokenness.
Making Group just a proxy to Actor broke some behaviour that application
and toolkit code was relying on. Let's keep Group around to fight
another day.
This commit fixes gnome-shell as far as I can test it.
A Group is a just a ClutterActor with the layout-manager property set at
instance initialization time. It doesn't need anything else from
ClutterActor's vtable, except the slightly custom show_all/hide_all
implementation, and a simplified get_paint_volume.
Instead of chaining up, given that we want to bypass chaining up and
just set the allocation. This also allows us to bail out of the
overridden allocate vfunc check, given that we want the default Actor
behaviour to apply - including eventual layout manager delegates.
The usual way to implement a container actor is to override the
allocate() virtual function, chain up, and then allocate the actor's
children.
Clutter now has the ability to delegate layout management to
ClutterLayoutManager directly; in the allocation, this is done by
checking whether the actor has children, and then call
clutter_layout_manager_allocate() from within the default implementation
of the ClutterActor::allocate() vfunc. The same vfunc that everyone, has
been chaining up to.
Whoopsie.
Well, we can check if there's a layout manager, and if it's NULL, we
bail out. Except that there's a default layout manager, and it's the
fixed layout manager, so that classes like Group and Stage work by
default.
Double whoopsie.
The fix for this scenario is a bit nasty; we have to check if the actor
class has overridden the allocate() vfunc or not, before actually
looking at the layout manager. This means that classes that override the
allocate() vfunc are expected to do everything that ClutterActor's
default implementation does - which I think it's a fair requirement to
have.
For newly written code, though, it would probably be best if we just
provided a function that does the right thing by default, and that
you're supposed to be calling from within the allocate() vfunc
implementation, if you ever chose to override it. This new function,
clutter_actor_set_allocation(), should come with a warning the size of
Texas, to avoid people thinking it's a way to override the whole "call
allocate() on each child" mechanism. Plus, it should check if we're
inside an allocation sequence, and bail out if not.
If we want to set a default layout manager, we need to do so inside
init(), as it's not guaranteed that people subclassing Actor and
overriding ::constructed will actually chain up as they should.
The default pick() behaviour does not take into consideration the
children of a ClutterActor because the existing containter actors
usually override pick(), chain up, and then paint their children.
With ClutterActor now a concrete class, though, we need a way to pick
its children without requiring a sub-class; we could simply iterate over
the children inside the default pick() implementation, but this would
lead to double painting, which is not acceptable.
A moderately gross hack is to check if the Actor instance did override
the pick() implementation, and if it is not the case, paint the children
in pick mode.
The hide_all() method is pretty much pointless, as hiding an actor will
automatically prevent its children from being painted. The show_all()
method would only be marginally useful, if actors weren't set to be
visible by default when added to another actor - which was the case when
we introduced show_all() and hide_all().

When dereferencing GArray.data to a C structure you need a double cast
from guint8* to void*, and then from void* to the actual type. This
avoids compiler warnings, especially when using clang on OSX.
The concept of "internal child" only meant anything when we had a
separate API for containers and actors. Now that we plugged that
particular hole, we can drop all the hacks we used to have in place
to work around its design limitations.
It can be convenient to be able to set, or get, all the components of an
actor's margin at the same time; since we already have a boxed type for
storing a margin, an accessors pair based on it is not a complicated
addition to the API.
Inside the set_child_[above|below]_sibling() and set_child_at_index() we
should be using the internal API for mutating the children list, instead
of the delegate functions. This ensures that we go through a single,
well-defined code path for all operations on the list of children of
an actor.
We have a replacement in ClutterActor, now.
The old ClutterContainer API needs to be deprecated, and the raise() and
lower() virtual functions need a default implementation, so we can check
for implementations overriding them, by using the diagnostic mode like
we do for add(), remove(), and foreach().
The sort_depth_order() virtual function just doesn't do anything, as it
should have been made ages ago.
The Actor wrappers for the Container methods also need to be deprecated.
ClutterActor provides four methods for changing the paint sequence order
of its children:
raise_top()
raise()
lower()
lower_bottom()
The first and last one being just wrappers around raise() and lower(),
respectively. These methods have various issues: they omit the parent,
preferring to retrieve it from the actor passed as the first argument;
this does not match the new style of API introduced to operate on the
list of children of an actor.
Additionally, the raise() and lower() methods of ClutterActor call into
the Container interface, and are not really aptly named (raise() in
particular collides with the completely unrelated 'raise' keyword in
Python, and usually needs to be wrapped in order to be used at all).
Furthermore, we need public methods that Container can call from its
default implementation, as well as methods to port current Container
implementations.
Finally, since we have insert_child_at_index(), we should also have an
equivalent set_child_at_index() as well.
The internal versions of add_child() and remove_child() currently use
boolean arguments to control things like the ChildMeta instances and
the emissions of signals; using more than one boolean argument is an
indication that you need flags to avoid readability issues, as well as
providing a way to add new behaviours without a combinatorial explosion
of arguments, later on.
I don't feel comfortable with this feature, and its implementation
still has too many rough edges. We can safely punt it for now, and
introduce it at a later point, as it doesn't block existing features
or API.
This virtual function will let layout managers with legacy expansion
flags be able to influence the lazy computation of the expansion flags
on ClutterActor.
We need to paint the background color in the default class handler for
two reasons: it's logically appropriate, and we don't want actor
subclasses overriding the ::paint class handler to change behaviour only
because somebody decided to set the background color.
The old add(), remove(), and foreach() virtual functions are deprecated;
ClutterContainer should warn if the public API detects that the vfuncs
have been overridden.
Strictly speaking, it's still legal to override those vfuncs: you can
chain up to the default vtable, or you could just provide an equivalent
implementation. The goal is to avoid having to override the Container
interface, until we can safely deprecate it and remove it in Clutter
2.0.
