85a26ea785 texture: fix cogl_texture_get_components prototype
This fixes the cogl_texture_get_components() prototype to have a return
type of CoglTextureComponents instead of CoglBool which was probably a
copy and paste error.

cbd6951134 introduce texture loaders to make allocations lazy
This introduces the internal idea of texture loaders that track the
state for loading and allocating a texture. This defers a lot more work
until the texture is allocated.

There are several intentions to this change:

- provides a means for extending how textures are allocated without
  requiring all the parameters to be supplied in a single _texture_new()
  function call.

- allow us to remove the internal_format argument from all
  _texture_new() apis since using CoglPixelFormat is bad way of
  expressing the internal format constraints because it is too specific.

  For now the internal_format arguments haven't actually been removed
  but this patch does introduce replacement apis for controlling the
  internal format:

    cogl_texture_set_components() lets you specify what components your
    texture needs when it is allocated.
    cogl_texture_set_premultiplied() lets you specify whether a texture
    data should be interpreted as premultiplied or not.

- Enable us to support asynchronous texture loading + allocation in the
  future.

Of note, the _new_from_data() texture constructors all continue to
allocate textures immediately so that existing code doesn't need to be
adapted to manage the lifetime of the data being uploaded.

Note: Compared to the original patch, the ->premultipled state for
textures isn't forced to be %TRUE in _cogl_texture_init since that
effectively ignores the users explicitly given internal_format which was
a mistake and on master that change should have been made in the patch
that followed. The gtk-doc comments for cogl_texture_set_premultiplied()
and cogl_texture_set_components() have also been updated in-line with
this fix.

99cdcc9e3c texture: make cogl_texture_get_format api private
CoglPixelFormat is not a good way of describing the internal
format of a texture because it's too specific given that we don't
actually have exact knowledge of the internal format used by the driver.

This makes cogl_texture_get_format private and in the future we'll

6436cd073d Declare interface types as void and remove cast macros
This declares the interface types CoglFramebuffer, CoglBuffer,
CoglTexture, CoglMetaTexture and CoglPrimitiveTexture as void when
including the public cogl.h header so that users don't have to use lots
of C type casts between instance types and interface types.

This also removes all of the COGL_XYZ() type cast macros since they do
nothing more than compile time type casting but it's less readable if
you haven't seen that coding pattern before.

Unlike with gobject based apis that use per-type macros for casting and
performing runtime type checking we instead prefer to do our runtime
type checking internally within the front-end public apis when objects
are passed into Cogl. This greatly reduces the verbosity for users of
the api and may help reduce the chance of excessive runtime type
checking that can sometimes be a problem.

fa855b7c45 Start clearly separating deprecated code
This makes a start on clearly factoring the deprecated code of core Cogl
into a deprecated/ directory. Ideally we want to get to the point where
all code here can be re-worked in terms of the public 2.0 api so that it
can be kept indefinitely for cogl 1.x api compatibility without
cluttering the core code base itself. If we can do this then we can
avoid maintaining the Cogl 1.x branches in parallel with master which
would reduce the maintenance effort.

afbb13e1a4 Add compiler deprecation warnings
This adds compiler symbol deprecation declarations for old Cogl APIs so
that users can easily see via compiler warning when they are using these
symbols, and also see a hint for what the apis should be replaced with.

So that users of Cogl can manage when to show these warnings this
introduces a scheme borrowed from glib whereby you can declare what
version of the Cogl api you are using:

COGL_VERSION_MIN_REQUIRED can be defined to indicate the oldest Cogl api
that the application wants to use. Cogl will only warn about
deprecations for symbols that were deprecated earlier than this required
version. If this is left undefined then by default Cogl will warn about
all deprecations.

COGL_VERSION_MAX_ALLOWED can be defined to indicate the newest api
that the application uses. If the application uses symbols newer than
this then Cogl will give a warning about that.

This patch removes the need to maintain the COGL_DISABLE_DEPRECATED
guards around deprecated symbols.

73e8a6d7ce Allow lazy texture storage allocation
Consistent with how we lazily allocate framebuffers this patch allows us
to instantiate textures but still specify constraints and requirements
before allocating storage so that we can be sure to allocate the most
appropriate/efficient storage.

This adds a cogl_texture_allocate() function that is analogous to
cogl_framebuffer_allocate() which can optionally be called to explicitly
allocate storage and catch any errors. If this function isn't used
explicitly then Cogl will implicitly ensure textures are allocated
before the storage is needed.

It is generally recommended to rely on lazy storage allocation or at
least perform explicit allocation as late as possible so Cogl can be
fully informed about the best way to allocate storage.

f53fb5e2e0 Allow propogation of OOM errors to apps
This allows apps to catch out-of-memory errors when allocating textures.

Textures can be pretty huge at times and so it's quite possible for an
application to try and allocate more memory than is available. It's also
very possible that the application can take some action in response to
reduce memory pressure (such as freeing up texture caches perhaps) so
we shouldn't just automatically abort like we do for trivial heap
allocations.

These public functions now take a CoglError argument so applications can
catch out of memory errors:

cogl_buffer_map
cogl_buffer_map_range
cogl_buffer_set_data
cogl_framebuffer_read_pixels_into_bitmap
cogl_pixel_buffer_new
cogl_texture_new_from_data
cogl_texture_new_from_bitmap

Note: we've been quite conservative with how many apis we let throw OOM
CoglErrors since we don't really want to put a burdon on developers to
be checking for errors with every cogl api call. So long as there is
some lower level api for apps to use that let them catch OOM errors
for everything necessary that's enough and we don't have to make more
convenient apis more awkward to use.

The main focus is on bitmaps and texture allocations since they
can be particularly large and prone to failing.

A new cogl_attribute_buffer_new_with_size() function has been added in
case developers need to catch OOM errors when allocating attribute buffers
whereby they can first use _buffer_new_with_size() (which doesn't take a
CoglError) followed by cogl_buffer_set_data() which will lazily allocate
the buffer storage and report OOM errors.

• The public headers were using G_BEGIN_DECLS. There is now a

  cogl-types.h.

• A similar fix has been done for G_GNUC_NULL_TERMINATED and
  G_GNUC_DEPRECATED.

• The CFLAGS were not including $(builddir)/deps/glib which was
  preventing it finding the generated glibconfig.h when building out

df21e20f65 Adds CoglError api
Although we use GLib internally in Cogl we would rather not leak GLib
api through Cogl's own api, except through explicitly namespaced
cogl_glib_ / cogl_gtype_ feature apis.

One of the benefits we see to not leaking GLib through Cogl's public API
is that documentation for Cogl won't need to first introduce the Glib
API to newcomers, thus hopefully lowering the barrier to learning Cogl.

This patch provides a Cogl specific typedef for reporting runtime errors
which by no coincidence matches the typedef for GError exactly.  If Cogl
is built with --enable-glib (default) then developers can even safely
assume that a CoglError is a GError under the hood.

This patch also enforces a consistent policy for when NULL is passed as
an error argument and an error is thrown. In this case we log the error
and abort the application, instead of silently ignoring it. In common
cases where nothing has been implemented to handle a particular error
and/or where applications are just printing the error and aborting
themselves then this saves some typing. This also seems more consistent
with language based exceptions which usually cause a program to abort if
they are not explicitly caught (which passing a non-NULL error signifies
in this case)

Since this policy for NULL error pointers is stricter than the standard
GError convention, there is a clear note in the documentation to warn
developers that are used to using the GError api.

Note: Since we can't change the Cogl 1.x api the patch was changed to
not rename _error_quark() functions to be _error_domain() functions and
although it's a bit ugly, instead of providing our own CoglError type
that's compatible with GError we simply #define CoglError to GError
unless Cogl is built with glib disabled.

Note: this patch does technically introduce an API break since it drops
the cogl_error_get_type() symbol generated by glib-mkenum (Since the
CoglError enum was replaced by a CoglSystemError enum) but for now we
are assuming that this will not affect anyone currently using the Cogl
API. If this does turn out to be a problem in practice then we would be
able to fix this my manually copying an implementation of
cogl_error_get_type() generated by glib-mkenum into a compatibility
source file and we could also define the original COGL_ERROR_ enums for
compatibility too.

Note: another minor concern with cherry-picking this patch to the 1.14
branch is that an api scanner would be lead to believe that some APIs
have changed, and for example the gobject-introspection parser which
understands the semantics of GError will not understand the semantics of
CoglError. We expect most people that have tried to use
gobject-introspection with Cogl already understand though that it is not
well suited to generating bindings of the Cogl api anyway and we aren't
aware or anyone depending on such bindings for apis involving GErrors.
(GnomeShell only makes very-very minimal use of Cogl via the gjs
bindings for the cogl_rectangle and cogl_color apis.)

The main reason we have cherry-picked this patch to the 1.14 branch
even given the above concerns is that without it it would become very
awkward for us to cherry-pick other beneficial patches from master.

13f228fe69 Remove all remaining _EXP suffix defines

These days we simply rely on the gtk-doc "Stability: unstable"

made it slightly more awkward to debug Cogl using GDB and was an extra
mechanical step we decided we could do without.

54735dec84 Switch use of primitive glib types to c99 equivalents
The coding style has for a long time said to avoid using redundant glib
data types such as gint or gchar etc because we feel that they make the
code look unnecessarily foreign to developers coming from outside of the
Gnome developer community.

Note: When we tried to find the historical rationale for the types we
just found that they were apparently only added for consistent syntax
highlighting which didn't seem that compelling.

Up until now we have been continuing to use some of the platform
specific type such as gint{8,16,32,64} and gsize but this patch switches
us over to using the standard c99 equivalents instead so we can further
ensure that our code looks familiar to the widest range of C developers
who might potentially contribute to Cogl.

So instead of using the gint{8,16,32,64} and guint{8,16,32,64} types this
switches all Cogl code to instead use the int{8,16,32,64}_t and
uint{8,16,32,64}_t c99 types instead.

Instead of gsize we now use size_t

For now we are not going to use the c99 _Bool type and instead we have
introduced a new CoglBool type to use instead of gboolean.

3700cc26a5 Change API so that CoglPixelBuffer no longer knows its w/h/format
The idea is that CoglPixelBuffer should just be a buffer that can be
used for pixel data and it has no idea about the details of any images
that are stored in it. This is analogous to CoglAttributeBuffer which
itself does not have any information about the attributes. When you
want to use a pixel buffer you should create a CoglBitmap which points
to a region of the attribute buffer and provides the extra needed
information such as the width, height and format. That way it is also
possible to use a single CoglPixelBuffer with multiple bitmaps.

The changes that are made are:

• cogl_pixel_buffer_new_with_size has been removed and in its place is
  cogl_bitmap_new_with_size. This will create a pixel buffer at the
  right size and rowstride for the given width/height/format and
  immediately create a single CoglBitmap to point into it. The old
  function had an out-parameter for the stride of the image but with
  the new API this should be queriable from the bitmap (although there
  is no function for this yet).

• There is now a public cogl_pixel_buffer_new constructor. This takes
  a size in bytes and data pointer similarly to
  cogl_attribute_buffer_new.

• cogl_texture_new_from_buffer has been removed. If you want to create
  a texture from a pixel buffer you should wrap it up in a bitmap
  first. There is already API to create a texture from a bitmap.

This patch also does a bit of header juggling because cogl-context.h
was including cogl-texture.h and cogl-framebuffer.h which were causing
some circular dependencies when cogl-bitmap.h includes cogl-context.h.
These weren't actually needed in cogl-context.h itself but a few other
headers were relying on them being included so this adds the #includes
where necessary.

This exposes CoglTextureRectangle in the experimental cogl 2.0 api. For

This is part of going work to improve our texture apis with more

CoglTextureRectangle is notably useful for never being restricted to
power of two sizes and for being sampled with non-normalized texture
coordinates which can be convenient for use a lookup tables in glsl due
to not needing separate uniforms for mapping normalized coordinates to
texels. Unlike CoglTexture2D though rectangle textures can't have a

Applications wanting to use CoglTextureRectangle should first check

_cogl_pipeline API relating to how CoglPipeline tracks and manipulates
layers.

4c3dadd35e Add a strong CoglTexture type to replace CoglHandle
As part of the on going, incremental effort to purge the non type safe
CoglHandle type from the Cogl API this patch tackles most of the
CoglHandle uses relating to textures.

We'd postponed making this change for quite a while because we wanted to
have a clearer understanding of how we wanted to evolve the texture APIs
towards Cogl 2.0 before exposing type safety here which would be
difficult to change later since it would imply breaking APIs.

The basic idea that we are steering towards now is that CoglTexture
can be considered to be the most primitive interface we have for any
object representing a texture. The texture interface would provide
roughly these methods:

  cogl_texture_get_width
  cogl_texture_get_height
  cogl_texture_can_repeat
  cogl_texture_can_mipmap
  cogl_texture_generate_mipmap;
  cogl_texture_get_format
  cogl_texture_set_region
  cogl_texture_get_region

Besides the texture interface we will then start to expose types
corresponding to specific texture types: CoglTexture2D,
CoglTexture3D, CoglTexture2DSliced, CoglSubTexture, CoglAtlasTexture and
CoglTexturePixmapX11.

We will then also expose an interface for the high-level texture types
we have (such as CoglTexture2DSlice, CoglSubTexture and
CoglAtlasTexture) called CoglMetaTexture. CoglMetaTexture is an
additional interface that lets you iterate a virtual region of a meta
texture and get mappings of primitive textures to sub-regions of that
virtual region. Internally we already have this kind of abstraction for
dealing with sliced texture, sub-textures and atlas textures in a
consistent way, so this will just make that abstraction public. The aim
here is to clarify that there is a difference between primitive textures
(CoglTexture2D/3D) and some of the other high-level textures, and also
enable developers to implement primitives that can support meta textures
since they can only be used with the cogl_rectangle API currently.

The thing that's not so clean-cut with this are the texture constructors
we have currently; such as cogl_texture_new_from_file which no longer
make sense when CoglTexture is considered to be an interface.  These
will basically just become convenient factory functions and it's just a
bit unusual that they are within the cogl_texture namespace.  It's worth
noting here that all the texture type APIs will also have their own type
specific constructors so these functions will only be used for the
convenience of being able to create a texture without really wanting to
know the details of what type of texture you need.  Longer term for 2.0
we may come up with replacement names for these factory functions or the
other thing we are considering is designing some asynchronous factory
functions instead since it's so often detrimental to application
performance to be blocked waiting for a texture to be uploaded to the
GPU.

a9184d5cb7 Export API for uploading a tex subregion from a CoglBuffer
This exposes 2 experimental functions that make it possible to upload a
subregion of a texture from a CoglBuffer by first wrapping the buffer as
a CoglBitmap and then allowing uploading of a subregion from a
CoglBitmap. The new functions are:

cogl_bitmap_new_from_buffer() and
cogl_texture_set_region_from_bitmap()

Actually for now we are exporting this API for practical reasons since
we already had this API internally and it enables a specific feature
that was requested, but it is worth nothing that it's quite likely we
will replace these with functions that don't involve the CoglBitmap API
at some point.

For reference: The CoglBitmap API was actually removed from the 2.0
experimental API reference manual some time ago because the hope was
that we'd come up with a neater replacement. It doesn't seem entirely
clear what the scope of the CoglBitmap api is so it has became a bit of
a dumping ground.  CoglBitmap is used for image loading, as a means to
represent the layout of image data and also internally deals with format
conversions.

Note: Because we are avoiding including CoglBitmap as part of the 2.0
API these functions aren't currently included in the 2.0 reference
manual.

ee7cc9e788 Make CoglTexture2D public as experimental API
This exposes a CoglTexture2D typedef and adds the following experimental
API:
    cogl_is_texture_2d
    cogl_texture_2d_new_with_size
    cogl_texture_2d_new_from_data
    cogl_texture_2d_new_from_foreign

Since this is experimental API you need to define
COGL_ENABLE_EXPERIMENTAL_API before including cogl.h.

Note: With these new entrypoints we now expect a CoglContext pointer to
be passed in, instead of assuming there is a default context. The aim is
that for Cogl 2.0 we won't have a default context so this is a step in
that direction.

72f4ddf532 Remove mentions of the FSF address
Since using addresses that might change is something that finally
the FSF acknowledge as a plausible scenario (after changing address
twice), the license blurb in the source files should use the URI
for getting the license in case the library did not come with it.

Not that URIs cannot possibly change, but at least it's easier to
set up a redirection at the same place.

As a side note: this commit closes the oldes bug in Clutter's bug
report tool.

8119c184da cogl-sub-texture: Optimise taking a sub texture of a sub texture
When creating a Cogl sub-texture, if the full texture is also a sub
texture it will now just offset the x and y and reference the full
texture instead. This avoids one level of indirection when rendering
the texture which reduces the chances of getting rounding errors in
the calculations.

0f5f4e8645 cogl: improves header and coding style consistency
We've had complaints that our Cogl code/headers are a bit "special" so
this is a first pass at tidying things up by giving them some
consistency. These changes are all consistent with how new code in Cogl
is being written, but the style isn't consistently applied across all
code yet.

There are two parts to this patch; but since each one required a large
amount of effort to maintain tidy indenting it made sense to combine the
changes to reduce the time spent re indenting the same lines.

The first change is to use a consistent style for declaring function
prototypes in headers. Cogl headers now consistently use this style for
prototypes:

 return_type
 cogl_function_name (CoglType arg0,
                     CoglType arg1);

Not everyone likes this style, but it seems that most of the currently
active Cogl developers agree on it.

The second change is to constrain the use of redundant glib data types
in Cogl. Uses of gint, guint, gfloat, glong, gulong and gchar have all
been replaced with int, unsigned int, float, long, unsigned long and char
respectively. When talking about pixel data; use of guchar has been
replaced with guint8, otherwise unsigned char can be used.

The glib types that we continue to use for portability are gboolean,
gint{8,16,32,64}, guint{8,16,32,64} and gsize.

The general intention is that Cogl should look palatable to the widest
range of C programmers including those outside the Gnome community so
- especially for the public API - we want to minimize the number of
foreign looking typedefs.

ae7825275e cogl: Make CoglSubTexture only work for quad rendering
The sub texture backend doesn't work well as a completely general
texture backend because for example when rendering with cogl_polygon
it needs to be able to tranform arbitrary texture coordinates without
reference to the other coordintes. This can't be done when the texture
coordinates are a multiple of one because sometimes the coordinate
should represent the left or top edge and sometimes it should
represent the bottom or top edge. For example if the s coordinates are
0 and 1 then 1 represents the right edge but if they are 1 and 2 then
1 represents the left edge.

Instead the sub-textures are now documented not to support coordinates
outside the range [0,1]. The coordinates for the sub-region are now
represented as integers as this helps avoid rounding issues. The
region can no longer be a super-region of the texture as this
simplifies the code quite a lot.

There are two new texture virtual functions:

transform_quad_coords_to_gl - This transforms two pairs of coordinates
     representing a quad. It will return FALSE if the coordinates can
     not be transformed. The sub texture backend uses this to detect
     coordinates that require repeating which causes cogl-primitives
     to use manual repeating.

ensure_non_quad_rendering - This is used in cogl_polygon and
     cogl_vertex_buffer to inform the texture backend that
     transform_quad_to_gl is going to be used. The atlas backend
     migrates the texture out of the atlas when it hits this.

These macros used to define Cogl wrappers for the GLenum values. There are
now Cogl enums everywhere in the API where these were required so we

they are not neccessary and were not in the API docs for Clutter 1.0
it should be safe to remove them.

c9cafc798c cogl: Add a sub texture backend
This adds a new texture backend which represents a sub texture of a
larger texture. The texture is created with a reference to the full
texture and a set of coordinates describing the region. The backend
simply defers to the full texture for all operations and maps the
coordinates to the other range. You can also use coordinates outside
the range [0,1] to create a repeated version of the full texture.

A new public API function called cogl_texture_new_from_sub_texture is
available to create the sub texture.
