The rotation angle calculated in clutter_behaviour_rotate_alpha_notify
gets applied to each actor using clutter_behaviour_actors_foreach. The
angle is a ClutterFixed value. Before the cogl float branch merge it
was stuffed into a gpointer using GPOINTER_TO_UINT. The pointer was
then converted back to a uint and cast to a ClutterFixed which worked
out fine even for negative numbers.
After the cogl-float merge the angle is effectively a gfloat. This
gets cast to a uint and stored in a pointer and converted back to a
float via a uint at the other end. However this fails for negative
numbers because a uint -> float conversion can't take advantage of
overflow to preserve the sign so you end up with a large number.
It also had the side effect that it only rotated in whole degrees.
This commit fixes the problem by just passing the ClutterFixed value
inside a closure struct instead of trying to stuff it into a pointer.
Currently only the Z axis rotation center can be set using a gravity
but the other rotations also store their center as an AnchorCoord for
consistency. Specifying the center as a gravity makes less sense for
the other axes because the actors have no size along the Z axis.
The rotation angles are now stored as gdoubles and the fixed point *x
entry points have been removed.
The Z rotation can now be set with a gravity center using the
following new function:
void clutter_actor_set_z_rotation_from_gravity (ClutterActor *self,
gdouble angle,
ClutterGravity gravity);
* float-alpha-value:
[script] Parse easing modes by name
[docs] Update the easing modes documentation
[animation] Implement new easing functions
[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.
This is the result of running a number of sed and perl scripts over the code to
do 90% of the work in converting from 16.16 fixed to single precision floating
point.
Note: A pristine cogl-fixed.c has been maintained as a standalone utility API
so that applications may still take advantage of fixed point if they
desire for certain optimisations where lower precision may be acceptable.
Note: no API changes were made in Clutter, only in Cogl.
Overview of changes:
- Within clutter/* all usage of the COGL_FIXED_ macros have been changed to use
the CLUTTER_FIXED_ macros.
- Within cogl/* all usage of the COGL_FIXED_ macros have been completly stripped
and expanded into code that works with single precision floats instead.
- Uses of cogl_fixed_* have been replaced with single precision math.h
alternatives.
- Uses of COGL_ANGLE_* and cogl_angle_* have been replaced so we use a float for
angles and math.h replacements.
Bug 1209 - Move fixed point API in COGL

* clutter/cogl/cogl.h.in:
* clutter/cogl/common/Makefile.am:
* clutter/cogl/common/cogl-fixed.c: Add fixed point API, modelled
after the ClutterFixed. The CoglFixed API supercedes the ClutterFixed
one and avoids the dependency of COGL on Clutter's own API.
* clutter/cogl/common/cogl-clip-stack.c:
* clutter/cogl/common/cogl-primitives.c:
* clutter/cogl/common/cogl-primitives.h: Update internal usage of
ClutterFixed to CoglFixed.
* clutter/cogl/gl/Makefile.am:
* clutter/cogl/gl/cogl-primitives.c:
* clutter/cogl/gl/cogl-texture.c:
* clutter/cogl/gl/cogl.c: Ditto, in the GL implementation of the
COGL API.

the COGL API.
* clutter/pango/pangoclutter-glyph-cache.c:
* clutter/pango/pangoclutter-glyph-cache.h: Ditto, in the Pango
renderer glyphs cache.
* clutter/clutter-fixed.c:
* clutter/clutter-fixed.h: ClutterFixed and related API becomes
a simple transition API for bindings and public Clutter API.

(clutter_actor_set_rotation): swapped axis and angle around,
the new argument order is: (axis, angle, x, y, z). Also removed
deprecated rotation functions from header.
Updated use of clutter_actor_set_rotation? in the following files:
* clutter/clutter-behaviour-rotate.c:
* clutter/clutter-effect.c:
* tests/test-actors.c:
* tests/test-project.c:
* clutter.symbols: Update exported symbols.
* clutter/clutter-actor.[ch]: Remove clutter_actor_rotate_*
and clutter_actor_get_rx* and provide a simpler rotation API:
clutter_actor_set_rotation() and clutter_actor_get_rotation().
* clutter/clutter-deprecated.h: Deprecate the old rotation API.
* clutter/clutter-behaviour-bspline.c:
* clutter/clutter-behaviour-rotate.c:
* clutter/clutter-effect.c: Update internal usage of the
rotation API.
* tests/test-project.c: Ditto as above.
Apply a patch from Neil Roberts (bug 468) that makes the get_center() method
of ClutterBehaviourRotate return the correct tuple of coordinates.
Also, fix some coding style issues and make sure to freeze and thaw the
GObject notification queue when emitting the notify signal on multiple
properties in one method.
* clutter/clutter-behaviour-depth.c:
Modify to work like all other behvaiours in not forcing
increasing order in behaviour 'limits'. (#436)
Rename limit min/max props to start/end.
* tests/test-depth.c:
Simplify test-case to work with above change and
without multiple ramps
* clutter/clutter-behaviour-rotate.c:
Handle CW rotation when end > start and similar for CCW just
like ellipse behaviour.
* clutter/clutter-behaviour-rotate.c:
* clutter/clutter-behaviour-rotate.h:
Split 'center' prop into 3 seperate props for each axis.
Use clutter_behaviour_actors_foreach() rather than
clutter_behaviour_get_actors() to avoid copying list.
Call fixed point rotation funcs internally.
* clutter/clutter-effect.c:
* clutter/clutter-effect.h:
Add new simple rotation based effect funcs.
Add initial implementation of a rotate behaviour; this behaviour rotates
actors along a chosen axis, with a chosen direction, between two angles.
Missing: API documentation and the implementation for the angle boundaries
setters (double and fixed API).
