On a Fedora system (and maybe others) there is a wrapper script called
i686-pc-mingw32-pkg-config. This script unsets the PKG_CONFIG_PATH
variable and then sets the PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR variable so that it won't
pick up the native system .pc files. This breaks cross compiling in
mingw-fetch-dependencies.sh because it ends up removing its attempts
to set a local search path.
To fix this, the mingw-fetch-dependencies script now generates its own
wrapper script which instead sets PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR to the local
clutter-cross prefix and then runs the original pkg-config program
from the search path. This should have the same benefit of preventing
it from finding native system .pc files on systems that don't provide
a cross pkg-config. The cross compiling for json-glib and the
recommend args to pass to configure when building clutter are updated
to set the PKG_CONFIG varible to point to this wrapper script.
Since there is very little now left in the env.sh file generated by
mingw-fetch-dependencies.sh it can be removed. What remained (The
CFLAGS="-mms-bitfields" and PKG_CONFIG_PATH=$ROOT_DIR/lib/pkgconfig) can
simply be passed explicitly when calling ./configure.
This removes the use of -mno-cygwin from our generated env.sh for cross
compiling with mingw.
I don't know that anyone is building clutter under cygwin, and our
BuildingClutterOnWindows wiki page only describes building with msys not
cygwin so I think its fair to assume that this build configuration is
untested and thus not supported by us currently. Since the -mno-cygwin
option is deprecated it could well be that there is a better
cross-compilation solution available for cygwin these days if you want
to build programs that don't depend on cygwin libraries.
This remove CXXFLAGS since we don't have any c++ code in Clutter and
also removes the redundant -L$ROOT_DIR/lib from LDFLAGS and
-I$ROOT_DIR/include from CPPFLAGS and CFLAGS. (These should get added by
pkg-config)
This adds some blurb at the end the mingw-fetch-dependencies.sh script
that gives an example of how to go on and build clutter after fetching
all dependencies.
Since Tor does not currently provide win32 binaries for json-glib we
need to cross compile it before we can build clutter. This extends
mingw-fetch-dependencies.sh so it can fetch, unpack and cross-compile
json-glib into the same prefix as the binary dependencies.
It shouldn't be necessary to explicitly override CC,CPP,AR,NM,LD etc in
the env.sh helper script that mingw-fetch-dependencies.sh generates.
Clutter's ./configure script should figure all of those out for us.
This removes the "Do you want to checkout and build Clutter?" option
from the mingw-cross-compile.sh script and renames the script
mingw-fetch-dependencies.sh
As it stands the mingw-cross-compile.sh script isn't enough to fetch all
the dependencies for building clutter, since Tor doesn't provide binaries
for json-glib so the option to checkout and build clutter can't work.
Also it doesn't seem ideal to clone a fresh clutter repo instead of
being able to compile the source of the current repo.
The GLES2 wrapper is no longer needed because the shader generation is
done within the GLSL fragend and vertend and any functions that are
different for GLES2 are now guarded by #ifdefs.
The check-news option in configure.ac conflicts with the idea of using a
buildbot to do a distcheck.
Since we're doing some validation on the state of the build during the
release-check phase we should add the NEWS file check there.

*** WARNING: THIS COMMIT CHANGES THE BUILD ***
Do not recurse into the backend directories to build private, internal
libraries.
We only recurse from clutter/ into the cogl sub-directory; from there,
we don't recurse any further. All the backend-specific code in Cogl and
Clutter is compiled conditionally depending on the macros defined by the
configure script.
We still recurse from the top-level directory into doc, clutter and
tests, because gtk-doc and tests do not deal nicely with non-recursive
layouts.
This change makes Clutter compile slightly faster, and cleans up the
build system, especially when dealing with introspection data.
Ideally, we also want to make Cogl part of the top-level build, so that
we can finally drop the sed trick to change the shared library from the
GIR before compiling it.
Currently disabled:
‣ OSX backend
‣ Fruity backend
Currently enabled but untested:
‣ EGL backend
‣ Windows backend
If no checkoutdir is specified then jhbuild seems to use the name of
the module which in this case would be 'gtk+'. This ends up
overwriting the checkout of the master branch of gtk+ and causes all
kinds of build problems. This patch adds a checkoutdir attribute to
the gtk2 module to force it to checkout into the gtk2 directory.
• Use addprefix instead of manually concatenating $(srcdir)
• Use AM_V_GEN instead of QUIET_GEN, to avoid inter-dependencies
• Do basic checks on GLIB_MKENUMS and GLIB_GENMARSHAL being defined
• Do checks on the required variables being defined
What happens now if you rename an enum inside a header:
• glib-mkenums generates the header file
• a comparison is made with the previous version of the heade is made
and no difference is found as you don't remove or create enums
• the compilation of the generated mkenums c file fails because it has
not been regenerated with the new, renamed, enum.
That's why the generated clutter-enum-types.c needs to depend on the
headers too.
Of course such scenario should not happen in stable releases as enums
are part of the API, but renaming enums happens in the development cycle
and create compilation errors (very annoying when doing git bissects for
instance).
The tests/accessibility, tests/micro-bench and the examples directory
in the coobook create a lot of non-installed binaries. Since we know who
they are, and we ignore them, we can auto-generate the ignore files as
well.
The rest of Clutter is covered by the main ignore file.
