Since we have a _clutter_debug_message() function compiled in
unconditionally we have no further need for the equivalent conditional
version defined in clutter-profile.[ch]: we can simply do the work in
one function.
We still ship clutter_get_show_fps() and clutter_get_debug_enabled() as
public entry points. Yet another case of missing API review prior to the
1.0 release, so really the bucket stops around my desk.
Let's deprecate these two useless functions, and reduce the API
footprint of Clutter.
This function should have never been made public in the first place; its
output depends on a configuration option of Clutter, and it's basically
useful only for internal debugging.
Make it consistent across the various build options (with or without
profiling enabled), and add a timestamp using the monotonic clock to
every debug message.
The clutter_get_timestamp() output depends on whether Clutter was
compiled with debugging support — it's meant to be used only by the
debugging notes, and it should not be used for anything else.
Instead of calling cogl_set_depth_test_enabled and
cogl_set_backface_culling_enabled ClutterDeformEffect now uses the
experimental CoglPipeline API. Those global state functions will soon
be deprecated in Cogl and they are implemented by flushing a temporary
override pipline which isn't ideal.
Using the new culling API we can also avoid having a separate buffer
of indices for the back of the texture by just changing the culling
mode to cull front baces instead of the back.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=663636
This changes ClutterDeformEffect to use a CoglAttributeBuffer with a
CoglPrimitive instead of the old CoglVertexBuffer. The old vertex
buffer code is now implemented in terms of the attribute buffer code
and it will eventually be deprecated. Using CoglPrimitives should be
slightly more efficient.
This also changes the struct we store the vertices to be
CoglVertexP3T2C4 instead of CoglTextureVertex. The latter is
technically not compatible with neither vertex buffers nor attribute
buffers because it contains a CoglColor and the internal members of
that are private so it is not valid to assume it contains 4 bytes and
use that as an attribute. Also it contains padding so it ends up
redundantly creating a larger buffer. CoglTextureVertex is in the
public API for the deform_vertex virtual so we still have to maintain
that. Instead of directly manipulating the array to upload, the
application is now passed a stack allocated temporary struct which
gets converted to a CoglVertexP3T2C4. This also means that we can map
the buffer as write only and still let the application read-write the
vertex.
The paint debug code to draw line strips for the deform mesh was
previously trying to set a red source material. However this wasn't
working because the material color was being overwritten by the color
attribute in the vertex buffer. This patch fixes that by creating a
seperate primitive for the lines and not adding the color
attribute. The lines code was also drawing both the front and back
indices. I don't think that entirely makes sense so I've just changed
it to draw only the front indices. Maybe painting both would make more
sense if backface culling was still enabled.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=663636
When invalidating the deform effect, we are invalidating the vertices
shaping the deformation of an actor. Therefore, there is no need to
trigger a redraw of the associated actor, we can just repaint the
effect.

A lot of the example code in the cookbook and the API reference still
uses the default stage — sometimes as if it were a non-default one,
which once again demonstrates how the default stage was a flawed concept
that just confused people.
Using the default stage as a fallback is wrong in all circumstances.
In this specific case, if an actor is not associated to a stage then it
cannot possibly be the key focus.
The default stage was a neat concept when we started Clutter out,
somewhere in the Jurassic era; a singleton instance that gets created at
initialization time, and remains the same for the entire duration of the
process.
Worked well enough when Clutter was a small library meant to be used to
write fullscreen media browsers, but since the introduction of multiple
stages, and Clutter being used to create all sorts of applications, the
default stage is just a vestigial remainder of that past, like an
appendix; something that complicates the layout of the code and
introduces weird behaviour, so that you notice its existence only when
something goes wrong.
Some platforms we do support, though, only have one framebuffer, so it
makes sense for them to have only one stage.
At this point, the only sane thing to do is to go through the same code
paths on all platforms, and that code path is the stage instance
creation and initialization — i.e. clutter_stage_new() (or
g_object_new() with CLUTTER_TYPE_STAGE).
For platforms that support multiple stages, nothing has changed: the stage
created by clutter_stage_get_default() will be set as the default one;
if nobody calls it, the default stage is never created, and it just
lives on as a meaningless check.
For platforms that only support one stage, clutter_stage_new() and
clutter_stage_get_default() will behave exactly the same the first time
they are called: both will create a stage, and set it as the default.
Calling clutter_stage_new() a second time is treated as a programmer
error, and will result in Clutter aborting. This is a behavioural change
because the existing behaviour or creating a new ClutterStage instance
with the same ClutterStageWindow private implementation is, simply put,
utterly braindamaged and I should have *never* had written it, and I
apologize for it. In my defence, I didn't know any better at the time.
This is the first step towards the complete deprecation of
clutter_stage_get_default() and clutter_stage_is_default(), which will
come later.
Instead of implementing create_stage() and a constructor for
ClutterStageOSX, we can use the default implementations in
ClutterBackend, and spare us some code duplication.
Create the device manager during the event initialization, where it
makes sense.
This allows us to get rid of the per-backend get_device_manager()
virtual function, and just store the DeviceManager pointer into the
ClutterBackend structure.
All StageWindow implementation already have back pointers, but we need a
unified API to actually set them from the generic code path; we can use
properties on the StageWindow interface — though this requires fixing
all backends at the same time, to avoid GObject complaining.
Instead of piggybacking on the EGL backend, let's create a small
ClutterBackend for the CEx100 platforms. This allows us to handle the
CEx100-specific details in a much cleaner way.
All the functionality that ClutterBackendCogl provided has been moved
into ClutterBackend itself, so there is no need to have this class
around in the source.
Cogl-based backends can derive directly from ClutterBackend.
Don't replace create_context(): given that the X11 backend already uses
Cogl for the context creation, we can just provide the right data
structures ourselves.
Since we use Cogl for the context creation we can now provide a default
context creation that should just work, plus a couple of hooks to allow
plugging into the creation sequence for platforms supported by Cogl that
require special handling — like foreign displays or alpha-enabled swap
chains.
The various backends have now two choices: either replace the
create_context() in its entirety, or plug themselves into the default
context creation.
Input backends are, in some cases, independent from the windowing system
backends; we can initialize input handling using a model similar to what
we use for windowing backends, including an environment variable and
compile-/run-time checks.
This model allows us to remove the backend-specific init_events(), and
use a generic implementation directly inside the base ClutterBackend
class, thus further reducing the backend-specific code that every
platform has to implement.
This requires some minor surgery to every single backend, to make sure
that the function exposed to initialize the event loop is similar and
performs roughly the same operations.
Right now, we pass through to Pango unrecognized hexadecimal formats
when parsing colors from strings. Since we parse all possible formats
ourselves, we can do validation ourselves as well, and avoid the Pango
path.
Previously, if there was whitespace between "l" and the comma before the
alpha value, parsing would fail. This patch allows that whitespace
making it consistent with whitespace being allowed everywhere else.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=663594
These methods are short-hands for accessing the position and size,
which are already shorthands for accessing the various dimensional
and positional attributes. Plus, they use ClutterGeometry, which is a
fairly bad data type for a rectangle.
We still use ClutterGeometry internally in a couple of places, but we
should really move away from that flawed rectangle data type, and use
the Cairo one.
Sadly, we still have some public API that we cannot remove yet.
Setting the default frame rate does not do anything even remotely
useful, unless synchronization to the vertical refresh rate is also
disabled - which can only be done through environment variable or
through configuration file. Having a programmatic way to change the
default frame rate is, thus, completely pointless.
Changing the default frame rate through environment variable and
configuration file is still allowed.
A GDK backend for clutter was added in commits 610a9c17
(Add A new GDK backend) and f14cbf5b (gdk: Allow disabling event retrieval)
These are not included in the Win32 builds for the moment as GDK3 is
quite unstable on Windows at this time
-Update clutter-version.h.win32.in to reflect the state of
clutter-version.h.in commit 21a24c86 (updated in commit 8249e488)
-Also add clutter_check_windowing_backend to clutter.symbols as a result.
The clutter-stage.h header still has a bunch of macros that have, for
reasons unknown[*], survived the 1.0 API cut and have long since been
deprecated. Let's hide them under the deprecated/ carpet and let us
never speak of them ever again.
[*] pretty sure alcohol or other psychotropic substances were involved
but I take the 5th on that.
Instead of defining new symbols for the windowing systems enabled at
configure time, we can reuse the same symbols for both the compile time
and run time checks, e.g.:
#ifdef CLUTTER_WINDOWING_X11
if (clutter_check_windowing_backend (CLUTTER_WINDOWING_X11))
/* use the clutter_x11_* API */
else
#endif
#ifdef CLUTTER_WINDOWING_WIN32
if (clutter_check_windowing_backend (CLUTTER_WINDOWING_WIN32))
/* use the clutter_win32_* API */
#endif
This scheme allows us to ensure that the input system namespace is free
for us to use and select at run time in later versions of Clutter.
We need debugging notes, to see what's happening when handling events.
We need to queue a (clipped) redraw when receiving a GDK_EXPOSE event.
We need to check the device (both master and source) of the event using
the GdkEvent API, and pass them to the ClutterEvent using the
corresponding Clutter API.
The code is generally wrong, and does not work. We need to skip the
GdkWindow creation when we have a foreing window, but we still need to
create the Cogl onscreen buffer and connect it to the GdkWindow's native
resource.
Just like the other backends can disable the internal event handling,
and use clutter_<backend>_handle_event() to do the native → Clutter
event translation.
Portable code should be allowed to check type backend currently being
used, so that it can use platform-specific API (not just Clutter's).
We don't want to go down the GDK route, with public types for
ClutterBackend and ClutterStageWindow implementations, and use the type
system, e.g.:
#ifdef GDK_WINDOWING_X11
if (GDK_IS_WINDOW_X11 (window))
use_x11_api (window);
else
#endif
#ifdef GDK_WINDOWING_WIN32
if (GDK_IS_WINDOW_WIN32 (window))
use_win32_api (window);
else
#endif
g_critical ("Unsupported backend");
This system would make us expose the backend system, and we want to
still reserve us the option to change the backend system to increase its
granularity — e.g. choosing different input event systems regardless of
the windowing system.
This commit adds a simple function that checks the backend type against
a symbolic constant — the same constant string that can be used to
select the backend at run-time through the CLUTTER_BACKEND environment
variable.
The Clutter backend split is opaque enough that should allow us to just
build all possible backends inside the same shared object, and select
the wanted backend at initialization time.
This requires some work in the build system, as well as the
initialization code, to remove duplicate functions that might cause
conflicts at build and link time. We also need to defer all the checks
of the internal state of the platform-specific API to run-time type
checks.
Previously, the Cogl backend was at times a subclass of the X11
backend, and at times a standalone one. Now it is the other way
round, with GDK and X11 backends providing the concrete classes,
layered on top of the generic Cogl backend. A new EglNative backend
was introduced for direct to framebuffer rendering. This greatly
simplifies the API design (at the expense of some casts needed)
and reduces the amount of #ifdefs, without duplicating code.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=657434
This commit introduces a new flavour for Clutter, that uses GDK
for handling all window system specific interactions (except for
creating the cogl context, as cogl does not know about GDK), including
in particular events. This is not compatible with the X11 (glx)
flavour, and this is reflected by the different soname (libclutter-gdk-1.0.so),
as all X11 specific functions and classes are not available. If you
wish to be compatible, you should check for CLUTTER_WINDOWING_X11.
Other than that, this backend should be on feature parity with X11,
including XInput 2, XSettings and EMWH (with much, much less code)

Avoid double argument checking, and a deprecation warning when

The number of deprecations in clutter-main.h makes the header harder to

Since Xlib.h is such a terrible citizen when it comes to symbol

required. Cogl now has a standalone cogl-xlib.h that should be included
whenever any xlib specific symbols are required.

We use an atexit() handler to print out the profile report coming from
Uprof. The g_atexit() call has been deprecated by GLib, but since this
use case is pretty specific and it's not meant to be turned on by
default (or distributed) then we can safely disable the deprecation
warnings inside clutter-profile.c.
The g_atexit() function has been deprecated in GLib as it is a fairly

We could probably use a GCC destructor if we didn't care about
portability, but for the time being we just remove the atexit() handler

This function is called when the backend is being disposed - as a way
of releasing all ClutterShader. This doesn't take into account three
things:
- ClutterShader is deprecated
- the Backend is *never* disposed
- once the process terminates, all its resources are automatically
released by the OS
So the _clutter_shader_release_all() function is a pointless exercise
in futility.

Just like GLIB_DEPRECATED and GLIB_DEPRECATED_FOR, Clutter should have

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.
The code that has been deprecated should live into its own directory,
both in the repository and when installed. This should make it clear
which functionality is actually maintained and which is not.
We start with an oldie: the frame source API.
On top of the existing "Settings" group in the settings.ini file we
should have two more groups:
Environment - contains all the configuration possible through
environment variables
Debug - contains all the possible debug variables
ClutterSettings should be able to load its initial state by using
configuration files in SYSCONFDIR and XDG_CONFIG_HOME. This allows
Clutter to have a system (and user) configuration on platforms that
do not have XSETTINGS bridges.
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.

The grab API is a relic of Clutter 0.6, and hasn't been through proper
vetting in a *long* time — mostly due to the fact that we don't really
like grabs, and point to the ::captured-event as a way to implement
"soft grabs" in toolkits and applications.
The implementation of full and device grabs uses weak references on
actors instead of using the ::destroy signal, which is meant exactly for
the case of releasing pointers to actors when they are disposed.
The API naming scheme is also fairly broken, especially for
device-related grabs.
Finally, keyboard device grabs are just not implemented.
We can, in one go, clean up this mess and deprecate a bunch of badly
named API by introducing generic device grab/ungrab methods on
ClutterInputDevice, and re-implement the current API on top of them.
GLib deprecated g_thread_init(), and threading support is initialized
by GObject, so Clutter already runs with threading support enabled. We
can drop the clutter_threads_init() call requirement, and initialize the
Big Clutter Lock™ on clutter_init(). This reduces the things that have
to be done when dealing with threads with Clutter, and the things that
can possibly go wrong.
The Big Clutter Lock™ can now be a static GMutex, since GLib supports
them. We can also drop a bunch of checks given the recent changes in
GLib threading API.
The static initializer for GMutex has been removed from GLib.
The g_thread_supported() call can also be removed: threading is always
enabled in GLib ≥ 2.31.

Let's rectify this situation with a bit of minor surgery on the code.
The priv->text field cannot ever be NULL, so we don't need to check for
that in a series of places. We also need to assert() that pre-condition
in the couple of places where we set the contents of the ClutterText
actor, namely in set_text_internal() and set_markup_internal().
Based on a patch by: Dan Winship <danw@gnome.org>
http://bugzilla.clutter-project.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2629
Setting :use-markup and :text is currently not idempotent, and it
depends on the ordering, e.g.:
g_object_set (actor, "use-markup", TRUE, "text", value, NULL);
does not yield the same results as:
g_object_set (actor, "text", value, "use-markup", TRUE, NULL);
This is particularly jarring when using ClutterText from ClutterScript,
but in general GObject properties should not rely on the order when used
from g_object_set().
The fix is to store the contents of the ClutterText as a separate string
from the displayed text, and use the contents, instead of the displayed
text, when toggling the :use-markup property.
Let's also add a unit test for good measure, to try and catch

When we paint a ClutterText we ask the actor for a PangoLayout that fits
inside the actor's allocation - both width and height.
Sadly, whenever a height is set on a PangoLayout, Pango will wrap its
contents - regardless of whether the layout should actually wrap or not.
This means that in certain easy to exploit cases, Clutter will paint a
Text actor with its contents wrapping even if the :wrap property is set
to FALSE.
In order to fix this we need to encode some more cases inside the
::paint implementation of ClutterText, and ask the cache for a layout
that is sized as the allocation's width, but not as its height; we also
need to perform a clip if we detect that the PangoLayout's logical size
is going to overflow the allocated size. This clip might cause some
performance issue, given that clipping breaks batching in the Cogl
journal; hopefully all clips for text are going to be screen-aligned, so
at the end of the batch it'll just scissor them out.

Like commit d0439cfb586ca14282c89035119a4acbc0295df7 for
AlignConstraint, let's check that the BindConstraint source is not
a child or a grandchild of the actor attached to the Constraint.
AlignConstraint won't work if the source is a child or a grandchild of
the ClutterActorMeta:actor to which it has been attached to: the
allocation flows from the parent to its children, not the other way
around; in order to avoid weirdness, we better document and check
that when we set the actor and when we set the source.
The repaint functions list can (and should) be manipulated from
different threads, but it currently doesn't prevent multiple threads
from accessing it concurrently. We should have a simple lock and take it
when adding and removing elements from the list; the invocation is still
performed under the Big Clutter Lock™, so it doesn't require special
handling.
Because we have had several reports about significant performance
regressions since we enabled offscreen redirection by default for
handling correct opacity we are now turning this feature off by default.
We feel that clutter should prioritize performance over correctness in
this case. Correct opacity is still possible if required but the
overhead of the numerous offscreen allocations as well as the cost of
many render target switches per-frame seems too high relative the
improvement in quality for many cases.
On reviewing the offscreen_redirect property so we have a way to
disable redirection by default we realized that it makes more sense for
it to take a set of flags instead of an enum so we can potentially
extend the number of things that might result in offscreen redirection.
We removed the ability to say REDIRECT_ALWAYS_FOR_OPACITY, since it
seems that implies you don't trust the implementation of an actor's
has_overlaps() vfunc which doesn't seem right.
The default value if actor::redirect_offscreen is now 0 which
effectively means don't ever redirect the actor offscreen.
