This allows more detailed control over the driver and winsys features
that Cogl should have. Cogl is designed so it can support multiple
window systems simultaneously so we have enable/disable options for
the drivers (gl vs gles1 vs gles2) and options for the individual window
systems; currently glx and egl. Egl is broken down into an option
for each platform.
The GDL API is used for example on intel ce4100 (aka Sodaville) based
systems as a way to allocate memory that can be composited using the
platforms overlay hardware. This updates the Cogl EGL winsys and the
support in Clutter so we can continue to support these platforms.
So that we can dynamically select what winsys backend to use at runtime
we need to have some indirection to how code accesses the winsys instead
of simply calling _cogl_winsys* functions that would collide if we
wanted to compile more than one backend into Cogl.
This moves the GLX specific code from cogl-texture-pixmap-x11.c into
cogl-winsys-glx.c. If we want the winsys components to by dynamically
loadable then we can't have GLX code scattered outside of
cogl-winsys-glx.c. This also sets us up for supporting the
EGL_texture_from_pixmap extension which is almost identical to the
GLX_texture_from_pixmap extension.
As was recently done for the GLX window system code, this commit moves
the EGL window system code down from the Clutter backend code into a
Cogl winsys.
Note: currently the cogl/configure.ac is hard coded to only build the GLX
winsys so currently this is only available when building Cogl as part
of Clutter.
The "DRM_SURFACELESS" EGL platform was invented when we were adding the
wayland backend to Clutter but in the end we added a dedicated backend
instead of extending the EGL backend so actually the platform name isn't
used.
Commit b061f737 moved _cogl_winsys_has_feature to the common winsys
code so there's no need to define it in the stub winsys any more. This
was breaking builds for backends using the stub winsys.
The comparison for finding onscreen framebuffers in
find_onscreen_for_xid had a small thinko so that it would ignore
framebuffers when the negation of the type is onscreen. This ends up
doing the right thing anyway because the onscreen type has the value 0
and the offscreen type has the value 1 but presumably it would fail if
we ever added any other framebuffer types.
The dispose function may be called multiple times during destruction
so it needs to be resilient against destroying any resources
twice. This wasn't the case for the reference to the Cogl context.
The code for _cogl_winsys_has_feature will be identical in all of the
winsys backends for the time being, so it seems to make sense to have
it in the common cogl-winsys.c file.
Previously the mask of available winsys features was stored in a
CoglBitmask. That isn't the ideal type to use for this because it is
intended for a growable array of bits so it can allocate extra memory
if there are more than 31 flags set. For the winsys feature flags the
highest used bit is known at compile time so it makes sense to
allocate a fixed array instead. This is conceptually similar to the
CoglDebugFlags which are stored in an array of integers with macros to
test a bit in the array. This moves the macros used for CoglDebugFlags
to cogl-flags.h and makes them more generic so they can be shared with
CoglContext.
Instead of having cogl_renderer_xlib_add_filter and friends there is
now cogl_renderer_add_native_filter which can be used regardless of
the backend. The callback function for the filter now just takes a
void pointer instead of an XEvent pointer which should be interpreted
differently depending on the backend. For example, on Xlib it would
still be an XEvent but on Windows it could be a MSG. This simplifies
the code somewhat because the _cogl_xlib_add_filter no longer needs to
have its own filter list when a stub renderer is used because there is
always a renderer available.
cogl_renderer_xlib_handle_event has also been renamed to
cogl_renderer_handle_native_event. This just forwards the event on to
all of the listeners. The backend renderer is expected to register its
own event filter if it wants to process the events in some way.
ClutterAnimation uses the weak ref machinery of GObject when associated
to ClutterActor by clutter_actor_animate() and friends - all the while
taking a reference on the actor itself. In order to trigger the weak ref
callback, external code would need to unref the Actor at least twice,
which has slim chance of happening. Plus, the way to destroy an Actor is
to call destroy(), not call unref().
The destruction sequence of ClutterActor emits the ::destroy signal, which
should be used by classes to release external references the might be
holding. My oh my, this sounds *exactly* the case!
So, let's switch to using the ::destroy signal for clutter_actor_animate()
and friends, since we know that the object bound to the Animation is
an Actor, and has a ::destroy signal.
This change has the added benefit of allowing destroying an actor as the
result of the Animation::completed signal without getting a segfault or
other bad things to happen.
Obviously, the change does not affect other GObject classes, or Animation
instances created using clutter_animation_new(); for those, the current
"let's take a reference on the object to avoid it going away in-flight"
mechanism should still suffice.
Side note: it would be interesting if GObject had an interface for
"destructible" objects, so that we could do a safe type check. I guess
it's a Rainy Day Project(tm)...
Do not use the generic GType class name: we have a :name property on
ClutterActor that is generally used for debugging purposes — so we
should use it when creating debugging spew in a consistent way.
The Cogl rework removed the Window creation from realize and its
relative destruction from unrealize; the two vfuncs also managed
the mapping between Window and Stage implementation that we use
when dealing with event handling. Sadly, the missing unrealization
left entries in the mapping dangling.
Since ClutterStageX11 already provides a ::realize implementation
that sub-classes are supposed to chain up to, and the Window ↔ Stage
mapping is private to clutter-stage-x11.c, it seems only fair that
the ClutterStageX11 should also provide an ::unrealize implementation
matching the ::realize.
This implementation just removes the StageX11 pointer from the X11
Window ↔ ClutterStageX11 mapping we set up in ::realize, since the
X11 Window is managed by Cogl, now.
Older drivers for PowerVR SGX hardware have the vendor-specific
GL_IMG_TEXTURE_NPOT extension instead of the
functionally-equivalent GL_OES_TEXTURE_NPOT extension.
We need to guard the usage of symbols related to the
GLX_INTEL_swap_event extension, to avoid breaking on platforms and/or
versions of Mesa that do not expose that extension.
It's generally useful to be able to query the width and height of a
framebuffer and we expect to need this in Clutter when we move the
eglnative backend code into Cogl since Clutter will need to read back
the fixed size of the framebuffer when realizing the stage.
This backend hasn't been used for years now and so because it is
untested code and almost certainly doesn't work any more it would be a
burdon to continue trying to maintain it. Considering that we are now
looking at moving OpenGL window system integration code down from
Clutter backends into Cogl that will be easier if we don't have to
consider this backend.
This makes it possible to build Clutter against a standalone build of
Cogl instead of having the Clutter build traverse into the clutter/cogl
subdirectory.
This adds an autogen.sh, configure.ac and build/autotool files etc under
clutter/cogl and makes some corresponding Makefile.am changes that make
it possible to build and install Cogl as a standalone library.
Some notable things about this are:
A standalone installation of Cogl installs 3 pkg-config files;
cogl-1.0.pc, cogl-gl-1.0.pc and cogl-2.0.pc. The second is only for
compatibility with what clutter installed though I'm not sure that
anything uses it so maybe we could remove it. cogl-1.0.pc is what
Clutter would use if it were updated to build against a standalone cogl
library. cogl-2.0.pc is what you would use if you were writing a
standalone Cogl application.
A standalone installation results in two libraries currently, libcogl.so
and libcogl-pango.so. Notably we don't include a major number in the
sonames because libcogl supports two major API versions; 1.x as used by
Clutter and the experimental 2.x API for standalone applications.
Parallel installation of later versions e.g. 3.x and beyond will be
supportable either with new sonames or if we can maintain ABI then we'll
continue to share libcogl.so.
The headers are similarly not installed into a directory with a major
version number since the same headers are shared to export the 1.x and
2.x APIs (The only difference is that cogl-2.0.pc ensures that
-DCOGL_ENABLE_EXPERIMENTAL_2_0_API is used). Parallel installation of
later versions is not precluded though since we can either continue
sharing or later add a major version suffix.
