The check for whether the compiler supports _Static_assert didn't work
properly because the AC_TRY_COMPILE function puts the source
definition in its own main function. The test therefore ends up
declaring a nested main function which GCC allows. If _Static_assert
isn't available then it just looks like an implicit declaration of a
function which only causes a warning in GCC so it would still compile.
This patch changes it to use AC_COMPILE_IFELSE instead. This macro
makes it possible to specify the complete source code so
_Static_assert can be called from the global scope. AC_LANG_PROGRAM is
used to generate the program. For extra aesthetics it now also
generates a 'checking for...' message while the script is running.

This splits the GL header inclusion from cogl-defines.h into a
separate headear called cogl-gl-header.h which we will only include
internally. That way we don't leak GL declarations out of our public
headers. The texture functions that were using GLenum and GLuint in
the public header have now changed to just use unsigned int. Note
however that if an EGL winsys is enabled then it will still publicly
include an EGL header. This is a bit more awkward to fix because we
have public API which returns an EGLDisplay and we can't determine
what type that is.
There is also a conformance test which just verifies that no GL header
has been included while compiling. The test isn't added to
test-conform-main because it doesn't actually test anything at
runtime.

This option to GCC makes it give a warning whenever a global function
is defined without a declaration. This should catch cases were we've
defined a function but forgot to put it in a header. In that case it
is either only used within one file so we should make it static or we
should declare it in a header.
The following changes where made to fix problems:
• Some functions were made static
• cogl-path.h (the one containing the 1.0 API) was split into two
files, one defining the functions and one defining the enums so that
cogl-path.c can include the enum and function declarations from the
2.0 API as well as the function declarations from the 1.0 API.
• cogl2-clip-state has been removed. This only had one experimental
function called cogl_clip_push_from_path but as this is unstable we
might as well remove it favour of the equivalent cogl_framebuffer_*
API.
• The GLX, SDL and WGL winsys's now have a private header to define
their get_vtable function instead of directly declaring in the C
file where it is called.
• All places that were calling COGL_OBJECT_DEFINE need to have the
cogl_is_whatever function declared so these have been added either
as a public function or in a private header.
• Some files that were not including the header containing their
function declarations have been fixed to do so.
• Any unused error quark functions have been removed. If we later want
them we should add them back one by one and add a declaration for
them in a header.
• _cogl_is_framebuffer has been renamed to cogl_is_framebuffer and
made a public function with a declaration in cogl-framebuffer.h
• Similarly for CoglOnscreen.
• cogl_vdraw_indexed_attributes is called
cogl_framebuffer_vdraw_indexed_attributes in the header. The
definition has been changed to match the header.
• cogl_index_buffer_allocate has been removed. This had no declaration
and I'm not sure what it's supposed to do.
• CoglJournal has been changed to use the internal CoglObject macro so
that it won't define an exported cogl_is_journal symbol.
• The _cogl_blah_pointer_from_handle functions have been removed.
CoglHandle isn't used much anymore anyway and in the few places
where it is used I think it's safe to just use the implicit cast
from void* to the right type.
• The test-utils.h header for the conformance tests explicitly
disables the -Wmissing-declaration option using a pragma because all
of the tests declare their main function without a header. Any
mistakes relating to missing declarations aren't really important
for the tests.
• cogl_quaternion_init_from_quaternion and init_from_matrix have been
given declarations in cogl-quaternion.h

This patch reworks our conformance testing framework because it seems
that glib's gtesting framework isn't really well suited to our use case.
For example we weren't able to test windows builds given the way we
were using it and also for each test we'd like to repeat the test
with several different environments so we can test important driver and
feature combinations.
This patch instead switches away to a simplified but custom approach for
running our unit tests. We hope that having a more bespoke setup will
enable us to easily extend it to focus on the details important to us.
Notable changes with this new approach are:
We can now run 'make test' for our mingw windows builds.
We've got rid of all the test-*report* make rules and we're just left
with 'make test'
'make test' now runs each test several times with different driver and
feature combinations checking the result for each run. 'make test' will
then output a concise table of all of the results.

- OpenGL Fixed Function
- OpenGL ARBfp
- OpenGL GLSL
- OpenGL No NPOT texture support
- OpenGLES 2.0

This adds two new functions:

int *n_poll_fds,

void
cogl_poll_dispatch (CoglContext *context,

The application is expected to call the first function whenever it is
about to block to go idle, and the second function whenever it comes
out of idle. This gives Cogl winsys's the ability poll file
descriptors for events. For example when handing swap complete
notifications, it can report that it needs to block on a file
descriptor.
The two functions are backed by winsys virtual functions. There are
currently no implementations. The default handler for get_info just

Actually --disable-glib doesn't strictly disable glib at this point

This splits out the core CoglPipelineLayer support code from

and it splits the CoglPipelineNode support which is shared between
CoglPipeline and CoglPipelineLayer into cogl-node.c.
Note: cogl-pipeline-layer.c only contains the layer code directly
relating to CoglPipelineLayer objects; it does not contain any
_cogl_pipeline API relating to how CoglPipeline tracks and manipulates
layers.
This makes a start on porting the Cogl conformance tests that currently
still live in the Clutter repository to be standalone Cogl tests that no
longer require a ClutterStage.
The main thing is that this commit brings in is the basic testing
infrastructure we need, so now we can port more and more tests
incrementally.
Since the test suite wants a way to synchronize X requests/replies and
we can't simply call XSynchronize in the test-utils code before we know
if we are really running on X this adds a check for an environment
variable named "COGL_X11_SYNC" in cogl-xlib-renderer.c and if it's set
it forces XSynchronize (dpy, TRUE) to be called.
By default the conformance tests are run off screen. This makes the
tests run much faster and they also don't interfere with other work you
may want to do by constantly stealing focus. CoglOnscreen framebuffers
obviously don't get tested this way so it's important that the tests
also get run on screen every once in a while, especially if changes are
being made to CoglFramebuffer related code. On screen testing can be
enabled by setting COGL_TEST_ONSCREEN=1 in your environment.
Cogl requires gobject and gmodule API, so we need to check for these and
add them to the pkg-config files as dependencies, otherwise building
Cogl with --as-needed (like modern distributions now do) will cause
build errors.

Instead of using g_module_build_path with the short name of the GL

the configure script now directly encodes the full name including the
version number (eg, "libGL.so.1"). This is necessary because distros
don't always install the non-versioned suffix for the library.
The GLES libraries are left without the version suffix because it's
not clear what should be placed here and I can't find any
documentation from Khronos to clarify this. Mesa seems to install a
file called libGLESv2.so.2 but the IMG SDK doesn't install any
versioned library. There is an example of dynamically loading
libGLESv2 in the Chromium source code and that does not use the
version suffix even though it does use the version suffix for GL. This
implies that it's at least fairly normal to load the unversioned name
for GLES.

The GL or GLES library is now dynamically loaded by the CoglRenderer
so that it can choose between GL, GLES1 and GLES2 at runtime. The
library is loaded by the renderer because it needs to be done before
calling eglInitialize. There is a new environment variable called
COGL_DRIVER to choose between gl, gles1 or gles2.
The #ifdefs for HAVE_COGL_GL, HAVE_COGL_GLES and HAVE_COGL_GLES2 have
been changed so that they don't assume the ifdefs are mutually
exclusive. They haven't been removed entirely so that it's possible to
compile the GLES backends without the the enums from the GL headers.
When using GLX the winsys additionally dynamically loads libGL because
that also contains the GLX API. It can't be linked in directly because
that would probably conflict with the GLES API if the EGL is
selected. When compiling with EGL support the library links directly
to libEGL because it doesn't contain any GL API so it shouldn't have
any conflicts.
When building for WGL or OSX Cogl still directly links against the GL
API so there is a #define in config.h so that Cogl won't try to dlopen
the library.
Cogl-pango previously had a #ifdef to detect when the GL backend is
used so that it can sneakily pass GL_QUADS to
cogl_vertex_buffer_draw. This is now changed so that it queries the
CoglContext for the backend. However to get this to work Cogl now
needs to export the _cogl_context_get_default symbol and cogl-pango
needs some extra -I flags to so that it can include
cogl-context-private.h
The README file is generated by the configure script so that it can

It was also necessary to fixup a CLUTTER_ENABLE_PROFILING #ifdef in

This explicitly renames the cogl-2.0 reference manual to
cogl-2.0-experimental and renames the cogl-2.0 pkg-config file to
cogl-2.0-experimental.pc. Hopefully this should avoid
miss-understandings.
This adds an extra header that gets included from config.h where we
can add configuration defines. This is used to #undef 'near' and 'far'
when building for Windows so that we don't have to avoid using them as
variable names in the Cogl code.
This adds internal API to be able to wrap a wayland buffer as a
CoglTexture2D. There is a --enable-wayland-egl-server option to decide
if Cogl should support this feature and potentially any EGL based winsys
could support this through the EGL_KHR_image_base and
EGL_WL_bind_display extensions.
This moves the --enable-cairo check because it was put in the middle of
the logic that handles the --enable-debug option. This moves the
--enable-cairo check down after the --enable-debug logic and adds a
comment header to delimit the option like we have for other options.
Instead of the stub winsys being a special case set of #ifdef'd code
used when COGL_HAS_FULL_WINSYS wasn't defined, the stub winsys now
implements a CoglWinsysVtable like all other winsys backends (it's just
that everything is a NOP). This way we can get rid of the
COGL_HAS_FULL_WINSYS define and also the stub winsys can be runtime
selected whereas before it was incompatible with all other winsys
backends.
Until we have a standalone quartz winsys we don't want to define a
winsys name called "quartz" which is what the current --enable-quartz
option does. For now anyone building for OSX needs to use the stub
winsys and setup their own GL context.
The native window type of the EGL/Android winsys is ANativeWinow*. The
Android NDK gives you a pointer to this ANativeWindow and you just need
to configure that window using the EGLConfig you are choosing when
creating the context.
This means you have to know the ANativeWindow* window before creating
the context. This is solved here by just having a global variable you
can set with cogl_android_set_native_window() before creating the
context. This is a bit ugly though, and it conceptually belongs to the
OnScreen creation to know which ANativeWindow* to use. This would need a
"lazy context creation" mechanism, waiting for the user to create the
OnScreen to initialize the GL context.
Early implementations provided only a GLES/egl.h while Khronos's
implementer guide now states EGL/egl.h is the One. Some implementations
keep a GLES/egl.h wrapper around EGL/egl.h for backward compatibility
while others provide EGL/egl.h only.
Also took the opportunity to factorize a bit this inclusion in
cogl-defines.h.
When checking for EGL earlier in the configure script (ie EGL_CHECKED is
"yes"), we did not execute some EGL code. Let's split that code in two:
- A first part that has a last change to check for EGL
- A second one that defines variables and that should always been run
in an EGL build
GLES/glext.h and GLES2/gl2ext.h need to include GLES/gl.h and
GLES2/gl2.h respectively to get the GL types.
This used to work as autoconf used to only do a preprocessor pass in
AC_CHECK_HEADER(S), but now it also tries to compile a small test
program and thus the test failed.
Gtk-doc can be hard to install on Windows. This patch enables people wanting to
hack on Cogl itself from a Windows system to do so without the hassle to get
gtk-doc installed first.
The semantics of shadowing global variables is well defined and it gets
quite annoying to avoid them completely since there are too many
standard APIs with very poor namespacing.
Wayland now supports integration via standard eglSurfaces which makes it
possible to share more code with other EGL platforms. (though at some
point cogl-winsys-egl.c really needs to gain a more formal
CoglEGLPlatform abstraction so we can rein back on the amount of #ifdefs
we have.)
This pulls in the experimental cogl 2.0 reference manual from the
clutter repository since it wasn't included in the filter-branch when we
split cogl out.
When Cogl was sharing Clutter's configure script, it had a check for
the ffs function of libc so that it can provide a fallback if it is
not available. This fallback was missed in the split out so Cogl would
end up always using the fallback.
This removes all the remnants from being able to build Cogl standalone
while it was part of the Clutter repository. Now that Cogl has been
split out then standalone builds are the only option.
We now install cogl-pango-1.0 and cogl-pango-2.0 pkg-config files that
applications should optionally depend on if they want to use the
cogl_pango API.
For compatibility with the way we build Cogl as part of Clutter we now
substitute an empty MAINTAINER_CFLAGS variable. When building Cogl
standalone all our extra CFLAGS go through COGL_EXTRA_CFLAGS so the
separate MAINTAINER_CFLAGS aren't used, but automake will get confused
if a substitution isn't made.
This fixes the gdk-pixbuf check to not mistakenly check for the "xi"
package instead of gdk-pixbuf and remove a spurious listing "gl" in
COGL_PKG_REQUIRES which should only be there when we are using using
opengl not if we are using gles.
Until Cogl gains native win32/OSX support this remove the osx and win32
winsys files and instead we'll just rely on the stub-winsys.c to handle
these platforms. Since the only thing the platform specific files were
providing anyway was a get_proc_address function; it was trivial to
simply update the clutter backend code to handle this directly for now.
We want to be able to split Cogl out as a standalone project but there
are still some window systems that aren't natively supported by Cogl.
This allows Clutter to support those window systems directly but still
work with a standalone Cogl library.
This also ensures we set the SUPPORT_STUB conditional in clutter's
configure.ac when building for win32/osx and wayland.
Instead of using AC_DEFINE for the various COGL_HAS_PLATFORM defines
this now adds them to the COGL_DEFINES_SYMBOLS variable which gets
substituted into the public cogl-defines.h header.
This adds a simple standalone Cogl application that can be used to
smoke test a standalone build of Cogl without Clutter.
This also adds an x11-foreign app that shows how a toolkit can ask Cogl
to draw to an X Window that it owns instead of Cogl being responsible
for automatically creating and mapping an X Window for CoglOnscreen.
This allows more detailed control over the driver and winsys features
that Cogl should have. Cogl is designed so it can support multiple
window systems simultaneously so we have enable/disable options for
the drivers (gl vs gles1 vs gles2) and options for the individual window
systems; currently glx and egl. Egl is broken down into an option
for each platform.
The GDL API is used for example on intel ce4100 (aka Sodaville) based
systems as a way to allocate memory that can be composited using the
platforms overlay hardware. This updates the Cogl EGL winsys and the
support in Clutter so we can continue to support these platforms.
The "DRM_SURFACELESS" EGL platform was invented when we were adding the
wayland backend to Clutter but in the end we added a dedicated backend
instead of extending the EGL backend so actually the platform name isn't
used.
This backend hasn't been used for years now and so because it is
untested code and almost certainly doesn't work any more it would be a
burdon to continue trying to maintain it. Considering that we are now
looking at moving OpenGL window system integration code down from
Clutter backends into Cogl that will be easier if we don't have to
consider this backend.
This adds an autogen.sh, configure.ac and build/autotool files etc under
clutter/cogl and makes some corresponding Makefile.am changes that make
it possible to build and install Cogl as a standalone library.
Some notable things about this are:
A standalone installation of Cogl installs 3 pkg-config files;
cogl-1.0.pc, cogl-gl-1.0.pc and cogl-2.0.pc. The second is only for
compatibility with what clutter installed though I'm not sure that
anything uses it so maybe we could remove it. cogl-1.0.pc is what
Clutter would use if it were updated to build against a standalone cogl
library. cogl-2.0.pc is what you would use if you were writing a
standalone Cogl application.
A standalone installation results in two libraries currently, libcogl.so
and libcogl-pango.so. Notably we don't include a major number in the
sonames because libcogl supports two major API versions; 1.x as used by
Clutter and the experimental 2.x API for standalone applications.
Parallel installation of later versions e.g. 3.x and beyond will be
supportable either with new sonames or if we can maintain ABI then we'll
continue to share libcogl.so.
The headers are similarly not installed into a directory with a major
version number since the same headers are shared to export the 1.x and
2.x APIs (The only difference is that cogl-2.0.pc ensures that
-DCOGL_ENABLE_EXPERIMENTAL_2_0_API is used). Parallel installation of
later versions is not precluded though since we can either continue
sharing or later add a major version suffix.
