Add a public version of the clipped queue redraw, using a 2D clip. This
allows implementing actors with trackable 2D clipped regions, like the
ClutterX11TexturePixmap, outside of Clutter itself.

Just like GLIB_DEPRECATED and GLIB_DEPRECATED_FOR, Clutter should have
its own wrappers for G_DEPRECATED and G_DEPRECATED_FOR, to allow opting
out of deprecation warnings.
Deprecation warnings are enabled by default, now, even when building
Clutter.
This moves a couple of definitions to the common types header, and makes
sure that ClutterBehaviour subclasses include clutter-behaviour.h first,
so that their types can be fully expanded without necessarily have the
ClutterBehaviour header header included by their public headers. This is
the necessary prelude to have clutter-behaviour.[ch] moved to the
deprecated section.
We already have two mechanisms for controlling the font rendering
quality on a per-application basis:
• ClutterSettings properties
• clutter_backend_set_font_options()
The font flags were always a stop-gap solution, and one that tried to
simplify a fairly complex issue beyond the point of actually being
useful.

With the instantiatable ClutterShaderEffect, the only reason for
ClutterShader to exist is to make the ClutterActor::paint implementation
miserable.
Yes, ClutterShader doesn't use a FBO, so it's "more efficient" on
ClutterTextures. It's also generally wrong unless you know *exactly* how
the actor's pipeline is set up — something we cannot even guarantee
internally unless we start doing lame type checks.
This is a lump commit that is fairly difficult to break down without
either breaking bisecting or breaking the test cases.
The new design for handling X11 event translation works this way:
- ClutterBackend::translate_event() has been added as the central
point used by a ClutterBackend implementation to translate a
native event into a ClutterEvent;
- ClutterEventTranslator is a private interface that should be
implemented by backend-specific objects, like stage
implementations and ClutterDeviceManager sub-classes, and
allows dealing with class-specific event translation;
- ClutterStageX11 implements EventTranslator, and deals with the
stage-relative X11 events coming from the X11 event source;
- ClutterStageGLX overrides EventTranslator, in order to
deal with the INTEL_GLX_swap_event extension, and it chains up
to the X11 default implementation;
- ClutterDeviceManagerX11 has been split into two separate classes,
one that deals with core and (optionally) XI1 events, and the
other that deals with XI2 events; the selection is done at run-time,
since the core+XI1 and XI2 mechanisms are mutually exclusive.
All the other backends we officially support still use their own
custom event source and translation function, but the end goal is to
migrate them to the translate_event() virtual function, and have the
event source be a shared part of Clutter core.
This is a fairly extensive second pass at exposing paint volumes for
actors.
The API has changed to allow clutter_actor_get_paint_volume to fail
since there are times - such as when an actor isn't a descendent of the
stage - when the volume can't be determined. Another example is when
something has connected to the "paint" signal of the actor and we simply
have no way of knowing what might be drawn in that handler.
The API has also be changed to return a const ClutterPaintVolume pointer
(transfer none) so we can avoid having to dynamically allocate the
volumes in the most common/performance critical code paths. Profiling was
showing the slice allocation of volumes taking about 1% of an apps time,
for some fairly basic tests. Most volumes can now simply be allocated on
the stack; for clutter_actor_get_paint_volume we return a pointer to
&priv->paint_volume and if we need a more dynamic allocation there is
now a _clutter_stage_paint_volume_stack_allocate() mechanism which lets
us allocate data which expires at the start of the next frame.
The API has been extended to make it easier to implement
get_paint_volume for containers by using
clutter_actor_get_transformed_paint_volume and
clutter_paint_volume_union. The first allows you to query the paint
volume of a child but transformed into parent actor coordinates. The
second lets you combine volumes together so you can union all the
volumes for a container's children and report that as the container's
own volume.
The representation of paint volumes has been updated to consider that
2D actors are the most common.
The effect apis, clutter-texture and clutter-group have been update
accordingly.
An actor has an implicit "paint volume", that is the volume in 3D space
occupied when painting itself.
The paint volume is defined as a cuboid with the origin placed at the
top-left corner of the actor; the size of the cuboid is given by three
vectors: width, height and depth.
ClutterActor provides API to convert the paint volume into a 2D box in
screen coordinates, to compute the on-screen area that an actor will
occupy when painted.
Actors can override the default implementation of the get_paint_volume()
virtual function to provide a different volume.
By default, ShaderEffect creates a fragment shader; in order to be able
to deprecate ClutterShader we need a way for ShaderEffect sub-classes to
create a vertex shader if needed - By using a write-only, constructor
only property.
ClutterShader has, internally, a ClutterShaderType enumeration that can
be used exactly for this. We just need to expose it and create a GObject
property for ClutterShaderEffect.
The Constraint base, abstract class should be used to implement Actor
modifiers that affect the way an actor is sized or positioned inside a
fixed layout manager.
ClutterAction is an abstract class that should be used as the ancestor
for objects that change how an actor behaves when dealing with events
coming from user input.
ClutterActorMeta is a base, abstract class that can be used to derive
classes that are attached to a ClutterActor instance in order to modify
the way an actor is painted, sized/positioned or responds to events.
A typed container for ActorMeta instances is also provided to the
sub-classes can be attached to an Actor.
* Add new clutter_geometry_union(), because writing union intersection
is harder than it looks. Fixes two problems with the inline code in
clutter_stage_glx_add_redraw_clip().
1) The ->x and ->y of were reassigned to before using them to
compute the new width and height.
2) since ClutterGeometry has unsigned width, x + width is unsigned,
and comparison goes wrong if either rectangle has a negative
x + width. (We fixed width for GdkRectangle to be signed for GTK+-2.0,
this is a potent source of bugs.)
* Use in clutter_stage_glx_add_redraw_clip()
* Account for the case where the incoming rectangle is empty, and don't
end up with the stage being entirely redrawn.
* Account for the case where the stage already has a degenerate
width and don't end up with redrawing only the new rectangle and not
the rest of the stage.
The better fix here for the second two problems is to stop using a 0
width to mean the entire stage, but this should work for now.

Embedding toolkits most likely will disable the event handling, so all
the input device code will not be executed. Unfortunately, the newly
added synthetic event generation of ENTER and LEAVE event pairs depends
on having input devices.
In order to unbreak things without reintroducing the madness of the
previous code we should allow embedding toolkits to just update the
state of an InputDevice by using the data contained inside the
ClutterEvent. This strategy has two obvious reasons:
• the embedding toolkit is creating a ClutterEvent by translating
a toolkit-native event anyway
• this is exactly what ClutterStage does when processing events
We are, essentially, deferring input device handling to the embedding
toolkits, just like we're deferring event handling to them.
ClutterAnimator is a class for managing the animation of multiple
properties of multiple actors over time with keyframing of values.
The Animator class is meant to be used to effectively describe
animations using the ClutterScript definition format, and to construct
complex implicit animations from the ground up.

ClutterActorBox should have an interpolate() method that allows to
compute the intermediate values between two states, given a progress
value, e.g.:
clutter_actor_box_interpolate (start, end, alpha, &result);
Another utility method, useful for layout managers, is a modifier
that clamps the members of the actor box to the nearest integer
value.
Instead of overloading ClutterChildMeta with both container and layout
metadata and delegate to every LayoutManager implementation to keep a
backpointer to the layout manager instance, we can simply subclass
ChildMeta into LayoutMeta and presto! everything works out pretty well
for everyone.
ActorBox should have methods for easily extracting the X and Y
coordinates of the origin, and the width and height separately.
These methods will make it easier for high-level language bindings
to manipulate ActorBox instances and avoid the Geometry type.
The Vertex and ActorBox boxed types are meant to be used across
the API, but are fairly difficult to bind. Their memory management
is also unclear, and has to go through the indirection of
g_boxed_copy() and g_boxed_free().
With the recent change to internal floating point values, ClutterUnit
has become a redundant type, defined to be a float. All integer entry
points are being internally converted to floating point values to be
passed to the GL pipeline with the least amount of conversion.
ClutterUnit is thus exposed as just a "pixel with fractionary bits",
and not -- as users might think -- as generic, resolution and device
independent units. not that it was the case, but a definitive amount
of people was convinced it did provide this "feature", and was flummoxed
about the mere existence of this type.
So, having ClutterUnit exposed in the public API doubles the entry
points and has the following disadvantages:
- we have to maintain twice the amount of entry points in ClutterActor
- we still do an integer-to-float implicit conversion
- we introduce a weird impedance between pixels and "pixels with
fractionary bits"
- language bindings will have to choose what to bind, and resort
to manually overriding the API
+ *except* for language bindings based on GObject-Introspection, as
they cannot do manual overrides, thus will replicate the entire
set of entry points
For these reason, we should coalesces every Actor entry point for
pixels and for ClutterUnit into a single entry point taking a float,
like:
void clutter_actor_set_x (ClutterActor *self,
gfloat x);
void clutter_actor_get_size (ClutterActor *self,
gfloat *width,
gfloat *height);
gfloat clutter_actor_get_height (ClutterActor *self);
etc.
The issues I have identified are:
- we'll have a two cases of compiler warnings:
- printf() format of the return values from %d to %f
- clutter_actor_get_size() taking floats instead of unsigned ints
- we'll have a problem with varargs when passing an integer instead
of a floating point value, except on 64bit platforms where the
size of a float is the same as the size of an int
To be clear: the *intent* of the API should not change -- we still use
pixels everywhere -- but:
- we remove ambiguity in the API with regard to pixels and units
- we remove entry points we get to maintain for the whole 1.0
version of the API
- we make things simpler to bind for both manual language bindings
and automatic (gobject-introspection based) ones
- we have the simplest API possible while still exposing the
capabilities of the underlying GL implementation
The hope is that this function makes it easier to extend the font
settings with more flags without having to add a function for every
setting.
A new flag for enabling hinting has been added. If set, this changes
the font options on the global PangoContext and any newly created
PangoContexts. The options are only set if the flag is changed from
the default so it won't override any detailed setting chosen by the
backend.
Instead of using our own homegrown alpha functions, we should
use the easing functions also shared by other animation frameworks,
like jQuery and Tween, in the interests of code portability.
The easing functions have been defined by Robert Penner and
are divided into three categories:
In Out InOut
Each category has a particular curve:
Quadratic
Cubic
Quartic
Quintic
Sinusoidal
Exponential
Circular
In addition, there are "physical" curves:
Elastic
Back (overshooting cubic)
Bounce (exponentially decaying parabolic)
Finally, the Linear curve is also provided as a reference.
The functions are private, and are meant to be used only
through their logical id as provided by the AnimationMode
enumeration.
The tests should be updated as well to match the new
easing functions.
In order to unify alpha functions and animation modes in ClutterAlpha
we should be able to register alpha functions and get a logical id
for them; the logical id will then be available to be used by
clutter_alpha_set_mode().
The registration requires API changes in ClutterAlpha constructors
and methods. It also provides the chance to shift ClutterAlpha
towards the use of animations modes only, and to alpha functions
as a convenience API for language bindings alone.

ClutterBox is meant to work like the HTML boxing model: it has a margin and
a backgrdound color, and every child actor is added with a pack type and a
padding. The ClutterBoxChild structure holds the child actor, the padding,
the packing type and the allocated coordinates for the actor.
