Remove the dispose() implementation and replace
with destroy().
This should be promoted as the standard approach
for implementing a composite actor, as it emits a
signal when instances of the actor subclass are destroyed.
Add some extra detail to the Discussion section of the
composite actor recipe, concentrating on the pros and
cons of this approach.
Also explain more about the Clutter parts of the implementation.
Also general tidy up of language and style.
Add some extra description to the allocate() function,
explaining how the allocation has to be adjusted to
coordinates relative to the actor as a whole, before
applying to the single child actor it is composed from.
Include all the code examples inline as part of the recipe.
Remove sections around each code example, as these are
unnecessary; leave full discussion for the Discussion section
instead of trying to cram it in around the code example.
As most actor subclasses will probably want to implement
size requisition, give a simple example of how to do this
on the basis of the composed actor's size, plus some padding.
Wayland visuals refer to a pixel's bytes in order from
most significant to least significant, while the
one-byte-per-component Cogl formats refer to the order
of increasing memory addresses, so converting between
the two depends on the system's endianness.
The height was being set from the ClutterGeometry in some parts
and from the stage in others. And since both callers of this
function pass &stage_wayland->allocation as the geometry anyway,
the stage argument isn't really even needed.
Since we need to find the stage from the X11 Window, it's better to use
a static hashmap that gets updated every time the ClutterStageX11:xwin
member is changed, instead of iterating over every stage handled by the
global ClutterStageManager singleton.
Clutter should just require that the windowing system used by a backend
adds a device to the stage when the device enters, and removes it from
the stage when the device leaves; with this information, we can
synthesize every crossing event and update the device state without
other intervention from the backend-specific code.
The generation of additional crossing events for actors that are
covering the stage at the coordinates of the crossing event should be
delegated to the event processing code.
The x11 and win32 backends need to be modified to relay the enter and
leave events from the windowing system.
When synthesizing events coming from input devices it should be
possible to just call a setter function, to avoid a huge switch
on the type of the event.
Clutter should also store the device pointer inside the private
data, for faster access of the pointer in allocated events.
Finally, the get_device_id() and get_device_type() accessors should
just be wrappers around clutter_event_get_device(), to reduce the
amount of code duplication.
Since we access it in order to get the X11 Display pointer, it makes
sense to have the ClutterBackendX11 already available inside the
ClutterStageX11 structure, and avoid the pattern:
ClutterBackend *backend = clutter_get_default_backend ();
ClutterBackendX11 *backend_x11 = CLUTTER_BACKEND_X11 (backend);
which costs us a function call, a type cast and an unused variable.
Cairo has recently changed so that it no longer adds a final move-to
command when the path ends with a close. This patch makes the test
check the run-time version number of Cairo to avoid duplicating this
behaviour when testing the conversion to and from a Cairo path.
Adapt to changes from this Wayland commit:
"Update surface.attach and change surface.map to surface.map_toplevel"
(82da52b15b49da3f3c7b4bd85d334ddfaa375ebc)
When we receive a ConfigureNotify event that doesn't affect the size
of the window (only the position) then we were still calling
clutter_stage_ensure_viewport which ends up queueing a full stage
redraw. This patch makes it so that it only ensures the viewport when
the size changes as it already did for avoiding queueing a relayout.
It now also avoids setting the clipped redraws cool off period when
the window only moves under the assumption that it's only necessary
for size changes.
Since the XI2 device manager code is going to be compiled only on
POSIX compliant systems, we can safely assume the presence of stdint.h
and include it unconditionally.
CLUTTER_BIND_POSITION and CLUTTER_BIND_SIZE are two convenience
enumeration values for binding x and y, and width and height
respectively, using a single ClutterBindConstraint.
When copying COMBINE state in
_cogl_pipeline_layer_init_multi_property_sparse_state we would read some
state from the destination layer (invalid data potentially), then
redundantly set the value back on the destination. This was picked up by
valgrind, and the code is now more careful about how it references the
src layer vs the destination layer.
There is currently a problem with per-framebuffer journals in that it's
possible to create a framebuffer from a texture which then gets rendered
too but the framebuffer (and corresponding journal) can be freed before
the texture gets used to draw with.
Conceptually we want to make sure when freeing a framebuffer that - if
it is associated with a texture - we flush the journal as the last thing
before really freeing the framebuffer's meta data. Technically though
this is awkward to implement since the obvious mechanism for us to be
notified about the framebuffer's destruction (by setting some user data
internally with a callback) notifies when the framebuffer has a
ref-count of 0. This means we'd have to be careful what we do with the
framebuffer to consider e.g. recursive destruction; anything that would
set more user data on the framebuffer while it is being destroyed and
ensuring nothing else gets notified of the framebuffer's destruction
before the journal has been flushed.
For simplicity, for now, this patch provides another solution which is
to flush framebuffer journals whenever we switch away from a given
framebuffer via cogl_set_framebuffer or cogl_push/pop_framebuffer. The
disadvantage of this approach is that we can't batch all the geometry of
a scene that involves intermediate renders to offscreen framebufers.
Clutter is doing this more and more with applications that use the
ClutterEffect APIs so this is a shame. Hopefully this will only be a
stop-gap solution while we consider how to reliably support journal
logging across framebuffer changes.
