Clutter has some platform-specific API that is accessible only if the
right backend has been compiled in. Third party applications that wish
to be portable across backends might want to use defines and other
pre-processor tricks to determine header inclusion and API usage.
While Clutter has an internal set of symbols it can use, third party
applications don't have the luxury of being able to access the config.h
generated by Clutter's configure script.
For this reason, Clutter should install a configuration header with a
series of namespaced defines that can be picked up by applications and
other third party code.
The ffs function is defined in C99 so if we want to use it in Cogl we
need to provide a fallback for MSVC. This adds a configure check for
the function and then a fallback using a while loop if it is not
available.

Keeping the Cogl 2.0 API reference in the build is getting far more
troublesome than it's worth.
It's breaking distcheck far too often, and it makes it impossible to
rebuild the build environment from tarballs - which is something that
some distributions (namely: the Debian-based ones, but not limited to
them) do in order to change build scripts using their own rules.
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.
http://bugzilla.clutter-project.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2468
Not tested (but checked that it compiles).
There's no reason to only enable the check for the cex100. Hopefully
should work.
We make sure not to enable both the evdev and the tslib backend at the
same time as the DeviceManager is a singleton and we can't have both
subclasses at the same time for now.
This backend is a event backend that can be enabled for EGL (for now).
It uses udev (gudev) to query input devices on a linux system, listens to
keyboard events from input devices and xkbcommon to translate raw key
codes into key keysyms.
This commit only supports key events, more to follow.
Building the API reference for Cogl 2.0 is fairly confusing: the API
itself is experimental and for internal use only -- though we want
feedback for it.
Let's build the API reference only when Clutter is configured with a
specific configure switch, so that people that wish to give feedback on
the API and its documentation can do it.
So we can keep track of the experimental progress of Cogl 2.0 features
this adds a standalone Cogl 2.0 Reference Manual which doesn't cover
the deprecated 1.x symbols and removes the need for a "Cogl
experimental API" chapter since those sections now make up the main
table of contents.
By defining COGL_ENABLE_EXPERIMENTAL_2_0_API in config.h we can ensure
that all internal clutter and cogl code can use the Cogl 2.0 API and by
not using AM_CPPFLAGS we avoid having other tools such as glib-mkenums
and the gir-scanner from inadvertently using the define also.
The profiling support was broken - probably during the restructuring of
the build environment, but I'm too lazy to bisect that.
The fix is trivial, and everything works as it should.
Previously in the tests/tools directory we build a disable-npots
library which was used as an LD_PRELOAD to trick Cogl in to thinking
there is no NPOT texture extension. This is a little awkward to use so
it seems much simpler to just define a COGL_DEBUG option to disable
npot textures.
CLUTTER_EGL_BACKEND is used to define a special EGL native backend to
use and was introduced for the CEX100 EGL backend. Unfortunately
CLUTTER_EGL_BACKEND was defined to "cex100" for eglnative, which is
obviously wrong.
The paches defines the right values for CLUTTER_EGL_BACKEND for the
eglnative and cex100 flavours.
Don't generate both bz2 and gz tarballs: we only use the former anyway,
and the latter just adds time for distcheck to complete.
The gz tarball will be generated by the remote installation scripts when
publishing the release.
The internal copy of JSON-GLib was meant to go away right after the 1.0
release, given that JSON-GLib was still young and relatively unknown.
Nowadays, many projects started depending on this little library, and
distributions ship it and keep it up to date.
Keeping a copy of JSON-GLib means keeping it up to date; unfortunately,
this would also imply updating the code not just for the API but for the
internal implementations.
Starting with the 1.2 release, Clutter preferably dependend on the
system copy; with the 1.4 release we stopped falling back automatically.
The 1.6 cycle finally removes the internal copy and requires a copy of
JSON-GLib installed on the target system in order to compile Clutter.
*** 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
When building with --enable-profile we now depend on the uprof-0.3
developer release which brings a few improvements:
» It lets us "fix" how we initialize uprof so that instead of using a shared
object constructor/destructor (which was a hack used when first adding
uprof support to Clutter) we can now initialize as part of clutter's
normal initialization code. As a side note though, I found that the way
Clutter initializes has some quite serious problems whenever it
involves GOptionGroups. It is not able to guarantee the initialization
of dependencies like uprof and Cogl. For this reason we still use the
contructor/destructor approach to initialize uprof in Cogl.
» uprof-0.3 provides a better API for adding custom columns when reporting
timer and counter statistics which lets us remove quite a lot of manual
report generation code in clutter-profile.c.
» uprof-0.3 provides a shared context for tracking mainloop timer
statistics. This means any mainloop based library following the same
"Mainloop" timer naming convention can use the shared context and no
matter who ends up owning the final mainloop the statistics will always
be in the same place. This allows profiling of Clutter with an
external mainloop such as with the Mutter compositor.
» uprof-0.3 can export statistics over dbus and comes with an ncurses
based ui to vizualize timer and counter stats live.
The latest version of uprof can be cloned from:
git://github.com/rib/UProf.git
Let's try to keep Cogl's build as non-recursive as possible, in the hope
that one day we'll be able to make it fully non-recursive along with the
rest of Clutter.
This requires some autotools magic when setting up the environment
through autogen.sh, because autoreconf does not do the right thing
by default.
The correct order for setting up localization is:
‣ autopoint
‣ aclocal
‣ ...
otherwise aclocal will copy the system's gettext.m4 instead of honouring
the version we specified with AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION in configure.ac.
Some debugging tools might require full visibility for the Clutter
symbols; for this reason, and to match what the Clutter dependencies
already allow, we should provide a configure switch to disable linking
with the -Bsymbolic flag.
This patch merges in substantial work from

* Use new introspection --include-uninstalled API since we don't want
to try to find the clutter-1.0.pc file before it's installed.
* Use --pkg-export for Clutter-1.0.gir, since we want the .gir file to
contain the associated pkg-config file.
* Drop the use of --pkg for dependencies; those come from the associated
.gir files. (Actually, --pkg is almost never needed)
* Add --quiet

Intel CE3100 and CE4100 have several planes (framebuffers) and a
hardware blender to blend the planes togeteher to produce the final
image.
clutter_cex100_set_plane() lets you configure which framebuffer clutter
will use for its rendering.
Intel CE3100 and CE4100 SoCs are designed for TVs. They have separate
framebuffers that are blended together by a piece of hardware to make
the final output. The library that allows you to initialize and
configure those planes is called GDL. A EGL GDL winsys can then be
use with those planes as NativeWindowType to select which plane to use.
This patch adds a new ClutterBackendCex100 backend that can be
selected at compile time with the new --with-flavour=cex100 option.
--quiet has been added to g-ir-scanner in the 0.9.1 cycle. We really
want to be able to compile clutter with 0.6.14 to be able to reuse
gir files that are distributed in current distributions.
Use the INTROSPECTION_SCANNER_ARGS (previously unused) variable to
convey --quiet when necessary.

DRM is available on more platforms than Linux (e.g. kFreeBSD), but
Clutter currently FTBFS there because of not being an alternative to
the __linux__ code (where it should be HAVE_DRM).
Instead of copying the DRM data structures, we should use libdrm when
falling back to directly requesting to wait for the vblank.

In 7fae8ac051 the two cogl-defines.h files from GLES and GL were
unified. However this missed out the COGL_HAS_GLES[12] defines from
GLES. The configure.ac still made an AC_SUBST for the right version
but the replacement was never put in any headers. This fixes it so
that instead of directly calling AC_SUBST the value is now put into a
variable which later gets added to COGL_DEFINES so that it will end up
in cogl-defines.h
There was an initializer for the COGL_DEFINES variable which sets it
to the empty value before it is filled in. The name of the variable
wasn't spelt right so it wouldn't work properly. This doesn't really
matter because it would default to empty anyway.
The cookbook should also include fully functional code examples. We can
even XInclude them into the docbook XML itself.
The examples should be built with the coobook, so that we can always
make sure they are up to date.
The P_() macro adds a context for the property nick and blurb. In order
to make xgettext recognize it, we need to drop glib-gettexize inside the
autogen.sh script and ship a modified Makefile.in.in with Clutter.
The AS_ALL_LINGUAS m4 macro allows configure-time generation of the
ALL_LINGUAS variable from the translations inside po/ instead of using
the LINGUAS file.

Under big GL, glext.h is included automatically by gl.h. However under
GLES this doesn't appear to happen so it has to be included explicitly
to get the defines for extensions. This patch changes the
clutter_gl_header to be called cogl_gl_headers and it can now take a
space seperated list of multiple headers. This is then later converted
to a list of #include lines which ends up cogl-defines.h. The gles2
and gles1 backends now add their respective ext header to this list.

We now always aim to use pkg-config based configuration when possible,
but when not configure.ac now knows the difference between GLES_CM
libraries that contain EGL symbols (I.e. a separate EGL library doesn't
need to be found) and GLESv1_CM libraries that don't contain EGL
symbols.

The Clutter Accessibility Library is an implementation of the ATK,
the Accessibility Toolkit, which exposes Clutter actors to accessibility
tools. This allows not only writing accessible user interfaces, but also
allows testing and verification frameworks based on A11Y technologies to
inspect and test a Clutter scene graph.

This copies the files for the GLU tesselator from Mesa. The Mesa code
is based on the original SGI code and is released under a BSD license.
The memalloc.h header has been replaced with one that forces the code
to use g_malloc and friends. The rest of the files are not altered
from the original so it should be possible to later upgrade the files
by simply overwriting them.
There is a tesselator.h header which is expected to be included by
rest of Cogl to use the tesselator. This contains a trimmed down
version of glu.h that only includes parts that pertain to the
tesselator. There is also a stub glu.h in the GL directory which is
just provided so that the tesselator code can include <GL/gl.h>
without depending on the system header. It just redirects to
tesselator.h
The -Bsymbolic-functions linker flag allows to avoid intra-library
PLT jumps on ELF platforms. It is similar to the aliasing hack in
GLib and GTK+, but definitely less messy.
The configure script should look for the flags, in order to support
platforms/linkers that do not have it.
This will be defined in cogl-defines.h whenever Cogl is built using a
winsys that supports X11. This implies CoglTexturePixmapX11 will be
available.
To make this work the two separate cogl-defines.h.in files have been
merged into one. The configure script now makes a @COGL_DEFINES@
substitution variable which contains the #define lines to put in
rather than directly having them in the seperate files.
When configuring the glx flavour we were always explicitly adding -lGL
to the linker flags even when a pkg-config file was found which should
take care of that option for us.
When building for gles1/2 we now always try and look for a libglesv1_cm
or libglesv2 .pc file with details about where to find the library and
headers.
This adds an automake USE_TSLIB condition to decide when we should
compile clutter-event-tslib.c. This is in preparation for consolidating
the eglx and eglnative backends.
With this patch if you ./configure clutter using
--with-flavour=opengl-egl-xlib then it will use EGL + OpenGL instead of
the default GLX and OpenGL.
These days upstream driver work is more focused on improving EGL than it
is GLX so likewise we want to make sure Clutter has good support for
EGL.
This adds a separate variable name "CLUTTER_SONAME_INFIX" to define the
infix for the clutter library that gets linked. Currently the WINSYS
corresponds to the directory we enter when building to compile the
window system and input support, but it is desirable to be able to
define multiple flavours that use the same WINSYS but should result in
different library names.
For example we are planning to combine the eglx and eglnative window
systems into one "egl" winsys but we will need to preserve the current
library names for the eglx and eglnative flavours.
When we check the flavour we now just set boolean variables for the
following things:
SUPPORT_X11=1
SUPPORT_XLIB=1
SUPPORT_GLX=1
SUPPORT_EGL=1
SUPPORT_EGL_POWERVR_X11=1
SUPPORT_EGL_POWERVR_NULL=1
This lets us avoid some duplication and also some error prone tests for
lists of flavours used, for example, to determine when we need to check
for x libraries.
It's desirable to have a separation between the "flavour" and the
"winsys". The flavour is a concept internal to the configure script and
is a convenient name to represent the users choice of window system,
opengl driver and input backend. The CLUTTER_WINSYS currently defines
the subdirectory under clutter/ that should be compiled to handle the
window system and input.
With a separation we could add a flavour with no correspondence to which
clutter/subdirectory needs to be built.
After checking the flavour option the user gives we were checking for
the fruity flavour to override the glesversion. Now that the glsl
checking has been moved this can instead just wait until the AS_CASE
that handles all the flavour configuration.
The flavour AS_CASE should define whether a flavour uses the gl or gles
COGL_DRIVER and so we shouldn't need to have an expanding list of
tests to gate when we check for a gles driver because if we move the
checks for gles after the flavour checks we can just look at
$COGL_DRIVER.
This removes EGL_{LIBS,CFLAGS}, GLX_{LIBS,CFLAGS}, OSX_{LIBS,CFLAGS},
WIN32_{LIBS,CFLAGS}, and GLES_{LIBS,CFLAGS} and instead we just append
to FLAVOUR_{LIBS,CFLAGS}.
This makes more of the file relocatable because there were previously
dependencies on the order that some variables were setup in.
