The commit that removed metacity-dialog added a global SIGCHLD handler
that caused problems by (a) calling waitpid(-1) and thus breaking
g_child_watch for everyone else, and (b) doing too much from a signal
handler and sometimes causing deadlocks (bug 596200).
This removes the global handler and has each zenity user create its
own child watch to watch for exit. (It also fixes the window class of
the zenity dialogs, so that meta_window_present_delete_dialog() will
work again.)
Having a MetaDisplay::window-demands-attention signal allows to deal with
windows demanding attention in a cetralized fashion.
The signal is emitted when a window is created with initial demands-attention
state and/or when the state changes later on.

With the change from bug 582639, we no longer call the reload
functions for properties that are not initially set, so the
initialization of fields in window.c has to match what
window-props.c would set for a missing property.
There was only one discrepancy, window->input, which needs
to be set to TRUE by default (or a window missing a WM_HINTS
property won't get focus); we also add explicit initializers
for a couple of fields that were getting 0-initialized
to the correct default value of FALSE for consistency with
the explicit intialization of the rest of the fields.

For some consumers it's significantly more convenient to be able
to directly connect to a signal on the Window to know when
Mutter is done with it, rather than having to connect to each
Workspace object (and handle workspace additions, etc.).
Similarly, add window-created which acts globally.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=598289
When we focus a window on a different desktop, and the calc_showing
idle that hides/shows the windows gets run before we get focus events
back from X, we think that we are hiding the window with the focus
so we focus a "random" window to avoid leaving the user with no focus.
Work around this temporarily by checking display->expected_focus_window;
this isn't a perfect fix because there are cases where
display->expected_focus_window corresponds to a window we tried to
focus in the past but failed, but it makes things work fairly well.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=597352
When we create the timeline dummy timeline to ensure that our later
functions that should be run during repaint get called called, pass in
G_MAXUINT to make the duration very long, not 0. (It will get reset
whenever there is no repaint later to run, so the fact that G_MAXUINT
is only ~40 days isn't a problem.)
This fixes a warning from Clutter, but also a real problem.
There was a problem where if, for example, a restack was triggered
out of a clutter event handler, then after Clutter processed the
events, it would proceed immmediately on to repaint the stage without
ever returning control to the GLib main loop. So even though we
had an idle handler installed with a higher priority than the
Clutter stage repainting the clutter stage repainting would happen
first and we'd get a wrong frame.
Fix this by introducing the idea of "later functions", which abstract
the idea of "doing something later" away from g_idle_add() and use
a combination of GLib idle functions and Clutter "repaint functions"
to get our callbacks triggered at the right time, even when they
are installed from a clutter event handler.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=596334
This also resolve a FIXME where MUTTER_PRIORITY_BEFORE_REDRAW
could starve stage repainting.
We need a way to indicate to gnome-control-center that we want the
keybindings capplet to show the Window Manager keybindings for Metacity;
do this through a _GNOME_WM_KEYBINDING property we put on the
_NET_SUPPORTING_WM_CHECK window and set to Mutter,Metacity.
See http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=594066 for the
gnome-control-center part of this.
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=594067
It seems a bit cleaner to make the MUTTER_DEBUG_XINERAMA variable
that sets up fake Xinerama take effect even if Xinerama is active;
this means we don't count on Xinerama (or Xrandr if we switch tot
that) special casing the case of one monitor.

Unminimize minimized windows passed to meta_workspace_activate_with_focus()
by calling meta_window_activate() on them instead of meta_window_focus()
and meta_window_raise(). This fix makes sense because for the existing
usage inside Mutter meta_workspace_activate_with_focus() is never called
on a minimized window and for calls from outside Mutter there is no
point in focusing a minimized window without unminimizing it first.
Add a doc comment to meta_workspace_activate_with_focus().
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=592393
The changes to enforce single handling of all key events were breaking
custom-alt-tab keypress handlers, since that code was assuming that
key event would get to process_tab_grab(), and then maybe to
process_event() and then to the plugin's xevent_filter to detect a
key release.
We centeralize all of this handling into process_tab_grab() and either
- Invoke a custom handler for the key press
- Select the current window on modifier release by calling a new
pseudo-binding "tab_popup_select"
- Cancel the grab on an unbound key by calling a new pseudo-binding
"tab_popup_cancel"
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=590754
mutter_plugin_begin_modal() and mutter_plugin_begin_modal() allow putting
a plugin into a "modal" state. This means:
- The plugin has the keyboard and mouse grabbed
- All keyboard and mouse events go exclusively to the plugin
mutter-plugin.[ch]: Add public API
compositor.c compositor-private.h: Implement the API
mutter-plugin-manager.c: When reloading plugins, make sure none of them
are modal at that moment, and if so force-unmodal them.
common.h: Add META_GRAB_OP_COMPOSITOR
display: When display->grab_op is META_GRAB_OP_COMPOSITOR forward relevant
events exclusively to the compositor.
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=590754
Only process each key event once. If all keys are grabbed, then
don't also look for handlers for a key shortcut after processing
the grab op. If all keys are grabbed or we find a key shortcut,
don't pass the event on to the compositing mananger.
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=590754
The previous notification code was attempting to use the "modified"
boolean returned from set_title_text, but "that boolean doesn't mean
what you think it means". It actually means "I truncated the title".
Just always notify, it's far simpler than trying to compute
when we don't need to, and callers can compress if they really need
to.
mutter-window.c originally grew an #include "window-private.h" for
window->override_redirect, but that was just fixed. However since
then it also ended up relying on a few other minor private bits.
To fix that, add meta_window_is_mapped, promote meta_window_toplevel_is_mapped
to public, and use the public MetaDisplay accessor.
The functionality to propagate errors for other displays to other
a "foreign error handler" was Soeren's compositor and is no longer
being used. Remove it.
(Now that error.h is being installed and scanned, we need to either
do this or add XErrorEvent to xlib-2.0.gir and rename ErrorHandler
to MetaErrorHandler. This way is a bit simpler.)
It's useful for plugins to be able to get access to the
startup-notification data that Mutter already has. Add
an accessor and change signal when recieve an event.
When window initially maps, use the more recent of NET_WM_USER_TIME and
startup notification timestamps to compare against last known user action to
decide whether to focus the window or not. Once we show the window, clear
the initial_timestamp_set flag, so the startup notification timestamp is not
taken into account again.

Many override-redirect windows (including the Metacity UI windows!)
will have NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE_NORMAL set on them because of shared
code paths with normal windows in toolkits.
Some current Compositor plugins (default plugin and gnome-shell)
check type == NORMAL to determine if to run effects. While fixing
such plugins to also check if the window is override-redirect is
posisble, it seems cleanest to simply not allow any of the decorated
window types to be set on an override-redirect window and to force
these types to META_WINDOW_OVERRIDE_OTHER. This will prevent other
similar problems from showing up in the future.
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=590971
When calculating maximum permissible size of our frame window, we need to
avoid an overflow if the application set its max size hint to INT_MAX.
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=590627
As a sideffect of commit a576f7a1ea, override
redirect windows of type _NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE_NORMAL do not have their
features recalculated during MetaWindow construction (same as regular
windows of type _NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE_NORMAL), so we need to set the initial
values accordingly.
Although the spec designates some window types as typically used for
override redirect windows, it does not prohibit the use of these with
managed windows, so we should not abort if we encounter one of these.
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=583870
As with other events, we want to pass through scroll events (button 4/5 presses)
to the compositor, whether or not they are associated with a particular MetaWindow;
do this by simply falling through to the normal code path instead of
separately delivering the events to the compositor.
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=588232
Previously, changes to the visibility of a window could be indicated
by meta_compositor_map_window(), meta_compositor_unminimize_window(),
meta_compositor_set_window_hidden(), etc, with the exact behavior
depending on the 'live_hidden_windows' preference.
Simplify this so that visibility is controlled by:
meta_compositor_show_window()
meta_compositor_hide_window()
With an 'effect' parameter provided to indicate the appropriate
effect (CREATE/UNMINIMIZE/MINIMIZE/DESTROY/NONE.)
The map state of the window is signalled separately by:
meta_compositor_map_window()
meta_compositor_unmap_window()
And is used only to control resource handling.
Other changes:
* The desired effect on show/hide is explicitly stored in
MetaWindow, avoiding the need for the was_minimized flag.
At idle, once we calculate the window state, we pass the
effect to the compositor if it matches the new window
state, and then clear the effect to start over for future
map state changes.
* meta_compositor_switch_workspace() is called before any windows
are hidden or shown, allowing the compositor to avoid hiding
or showing an effect for windows involved in the switch.
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=582341
* Handling of post-effect cleanups for MutterWindow are
simplified - instead of trying to do different things based
on the individual needs of different effects, we just wait until
all effects complete and sync the window state to what it
should be.
* On unmap, once we destroy the pixmap, we tell ClutterX11Pixmap
that we've done so, so it can clean up and unbind. (The
unbinding doesn't seem to be working properly because of
ClutterGLXPixmap or video driver issues.)
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=587251
Add a paint function that checks all windows for repair and
shape updates; this:
- simplifies the logic for when a window needs to be repaired
- avoids duplicate work when we get multiple damage effects
- avoids the need to look ahead in the event queue
Instead of relying on repair to implicitly resize the
MutterWindow actor, set the size explicitly when the core
code updates the geometry. (This is needed because we haven't
repaired yet when we start an animation, and the animation
may depend on the size to, e.g., rescale from the center.)
Because the core geometry update happens before we start
maximize/unmaximize effects we need to work around this by
passing both the old and new geometry to the compositor.
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=587251
Putting hidden windows in the desktop layer is pointless - in
the desktop layer isn't necessary below all visible windows,
and we are hiding the windows by other means. And the movement
isn't reliable because nothing sets stack->needs_relayer, so
windows can get stuck in the desktop layer after being
rehidden.
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=587251
The patch adds GLib marshalling code to Mutter, since it's required for the "workspace-switched" signal.
The definition of MetaMotionDirection enum is moved to common.h since it's now used in workspace.c.
A little cleaning is done in workspace.c:meta_workspace_activate_with_focus(), where compositor-specific code is merged with the rest of the function (required to emit signal), removing #ifdefs.
Remove a number of functions that were either entirely unimplemented
or had empty implementations for the Clutter-compositor.
meta_compositor_begin_move()
meta_compositor_update_move()
meta_compositor_end_move()
meta_compositor_set_active_window()
meta_compositor_free_window()
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=581813
Now that we only have one compositor, there's no reason to access the
compositor functions through a vtable. Remove the MetaCompositor virtualization
and make the clutter code implement the meta_compositor_* functions
directly.
Move the checks for the compositor being NULL from the vtable wrappers
to the calling code (most of them were already there, so just a few
needed to be added)
Note: the compositor is actually hard-coded on at the moment and the plan
is to remove the non-composited code entirely, so the checks are
added only to keep things neat: they have no practical effect.
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=581813
Mutter is a Clutter-based compositing manager. So, remove the code for
the XRender-based compositor, and make it mandatory to have XComposite,
XRender and Clutter.
Run-time support for non-composited operation is left for now.
* src/compositor/mutter/: Move files from this subdirectory into
the main compositor/ directory.
* compositor/compositor-xrender.ccompositor/compositor-xrender.h:

replaced with compositor-mutter.h some time back.

With MetaStackTracker, it's no longer necessary to XQueryTree to
get a reasonably-up-to-date view of the server stacking order.
Add some comments explaining unclear aspects of
raise_window_relative_to_managed_windows() and with future possible
improvements.
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=585984
Don't add override-redirect windows to MetaStack; we shouldn't
be restacking them.
Since we *aren't* stacking the override-redirect windows, we need to
be careful that to ignore them when looking for the top managed
window.
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=585984
In order to properly track the stacking order for override-redirect
windows, move meta_compositor_sync_stack() call into MetaStackTracker.
In the new location, we sync the stack as a before-redraw idle function,
rather then using the freeze-thaw facilities of MetaStack. This is
simpler, and also properly compresses multiple stack changes on
notifications received from the X server.
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=585984
Wedging override-redirect windows into the constraint code in stack.c
results in Mutter getting confused about the stacking order of
these windows with respect to other windows, and may also in some
cases cause Mutter to restack override-redirect windows.
core/stack-tracker.c core/stack-tracker.h: MetaStackTracker - combine
events received from the X server with local changes we have made
to come up with the best possible idea of what the stacking order
is at any one point in time.
core/screen.c core/screen-private.h: Create a MetaStackTracker for
the screen.
core/display.c: Feed relevant events to MetaStackTracker
core/frame.c core/screen.c core/stack.c: When we make changes to the
stacking order or add windows, record those changes immediatley
in MetaStackTracker so we have the information without waiting
for a round-trip.
include/ui.h ui/ui.c: meta_ui_create_frame_window add a return value
for the X request serial used to create the window.

Override-redirect windows should not be moved or resized by the
window manager.
- Mark override-redirect windows as already placed to avoid
placing them when first shown.
- Don't move-resize newly created override-redirect MetaWindow
- Don't queue a resize on override-redirect windows when reading
their WM_TRANSIENT_FOR hint.
- Add g_return_if_fail (!window->override_redirect) to catch
unexpected code paths that might result in override-redirect
windows being moved or resized.
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=582639
Normally a window that is "on all workspaces", is also on a particular
workspace (to deal with being unstuck.) This is pointless for
override-redirect windows.
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=582639
Don't include override-redirect windows when iterating the windows
in the screen. We don't need them for any of the current uses:
- Queueing redraws and resizes on managed windows
- Checking which windows should be added to a new workspace
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=582639
Don't include override-redirect windows in the list return by
meta_display_list_windows(), since we almost never want to handle
them when considering "all window" for the display. Add a separate
meta_display_list_all_windows() that includes override-redirect
windows.
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=582639
Skipping handling of properties for override redirect windows has
two advantages: first it reduces the amount of work needed to get
an override-redirect window (menu, tooltip, drag icon) onto the
screen. But more importantly, it reduces the number of code-paths
for an override-redirect to get into some code portion where it
isn't expected.
* Integrate the list of properties we load initially with the
list of property hooks; this avoids having two separate lists
that we have to keep in sync.
* Add a flag to MetaWindowPropHooks to indicate whether the
property should be handled for override-redirect windows;
currently we load a) properties that identify the window -
useful for debugging purposes b) WM_TRANSIENT_FOR (could be
used to associate menus with toplevels.)
* For properties that aren't always loaded through window-props.c,
add !window->override checks to places that trigger loading,
and add g_return_if_fail(!window->override) to the load
functions as a double-check.
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=582639
Add g_return_if_fail() to check that window-management functions like
meta_window_maximize() aren't called on override-redirect windows.
This reveals that were were "unminimizing" override-redirect windows
when adding them; avoid doing that.

If a property has a reload function, but the standard property-fetching
mechanism isn't used (hooks->type == META_PROP_VALUE_INVALID), then the
a logic error (introduced in January) caused the hook to never be run.
This meant that changes to struts and icons weren't noticed.
Same as: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=572573
The fix here is different in detail from that applied to Metacity, but
similar in spirit.

On subsequent changes, if there is a NET_WM_USER_TIME_WINDOW, then
read the property from that rather than from the main window.

When we add a window and it gets hidden as the first thing, we need
to show not just the frame window, but also the window itself.
Otherwise when the window subsequently becomes visible, it will
just be an empty frame.
Add helper functions to reduce current code duplication and avoid
adding more.
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=586309
Code:
All references in the code not related to themes, keybindings, or
GConf were changed from 'metacity' to 'mutter'. This includes, among other
things, strings, comments, the atoms used in the message protocol, and
the envvars used for debugging. The GConf schema file was reduced to
the 3 settings new to mutter.
The overall version was brought up to 2.27 to match current gnome.
Structure:
All files named '*metacity*' were renamed '*mutter*' with appropriate
changes in the automake system. Files removed are
doc/creating_themes, src/themes, doc/metacity-theme.dtd,
metacity.doap. These files will eventually end up in an external
gnome-wm-data module.
Installation location:
On the filesystem the mutter-plugindir was change from
$(libdir)/metacity/plugins/clutter to just $(libdir)/mutter/plugins.
The mutter-plugins.pc.in reflects these changes.
Note:
mutter.desktop.in and mutter-wm.desktop both continue to have
X-GNOME-WMSettingsModule=metacity set. This allows
gnome-control-center to continue using libmetacity.so for
configuration. This is fine since most the general keybindings and wm
settings are being read from /apps/metacity/* in gconf.
Also, use MetaWindows as the tab_popup keys rather than using (X) Windows
and then having to map back and forth everywhere, which is silly since
we never actually want the X Window.
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=580917
Rather than trying to reverse-engineer what kind of tab/workspace
popup to create from within meta_display_begin_grab_op(), just create
the popup directly from do_choose_window()/handle_workspace_switch()
after completing the grab, since they already know which kind they
want.
Also add meta_screen_destroy_tab_popup()/_destroy_workspace_popup()
rather than having meta_display_end_grab_op() poke into MetaScreen's
internals itself.
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=580917
Build a XML gir file and binary typelib file for the interfaces that
we are installing for plugin use. They are installed into $(pkglibdir)
since they are private to the application.
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=580041
Always compile the default keybindings into Metacity, and if we
fail to retrieve the values from GConf, use the compiled-in
value. This makes things more robust especially in an environment
like JHBuild where GConf-schema-installation may not work
correctly.
Also use these values for the no-GConf case, rather than
having a separate arrray and code path.

This patch adds the concept of a special key for WM operations, and
the default is Super_L, which on extended PC hardware is the
"Windows key". What we do is handle the special case of a press
and release of this key (without any other intervening keys).
Super_L+<key> should still be passed to applications. In the future
we may want to also take some of these keybindings (e.g. Super+TAB)
though.

Add sigals to MetaWorkspace to allow tracking when windows are added
and removed. Note that on window creation that these signals are fired
before the window setup is totally complete, so they need to be used
with some care. (For example, the compositor, if present, has not
been notified of the new window.)
