cogl-winsys-egl-feature-functions.h was unconditionally depending on the
struct wl_display type being defined. This guards the check for the
"WL_bind_wayland_display" extension with
#ifdef COGL_HAS_EGL_PLATFORM_WAYLAND_SUPPORT

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
cogl-ext-functions.h now contains definitions for all of the core GL
and GLES functions that we would normally link to directly. All of the
code has changed to access them through the cogl context pointer. The
GE macro now takes an extra parameter to specify the context because
the macro itself needs to make GL calls but various points in the Cogl
source use different names for the context variable.
Instead of storing all of the feature function pointers in the driver
specific data of the CoglContext they are now all stored directly in
CoglContext. There is a single header containing the description of
the functions which gets included by cogl-context.h. There is a single
function in cogl-feature-private.c to check for all of these
functions.
The name of the function pointer variables have been changed from
ctx->drv.pf_glWhatever to just ctx->glWhatever.
The feature flags that get set when an extension is available are now
separated from the table of extensions. This is necessary because
different extensions can mean different things on GLES and GL. For
example, having access to glMapBuffer implies read and write support
on GL but only write support on GLES. The flags are instead set in the
driver specific init function by checking whether the function
pointers were successfully resolved.
_cogl_feature_check has been changed to assume the feature is
supported if any of the listed extensions are available instead of
requiring all of them. This makes it more convenient to specify
alternate names for the extension. Nothing else had previously listed
more than one name for an extension so this shouldn't cause any
problems.
instead of looking at the ctx->private_feature_flags to determine if
Cogl supports creating an EGLImage from a X Pixmap we now check the
renderer private features instead since these are what get setup in
check_egl_extensions. The conflicting flags defined in cogl-internal.h
should be removed since they are un-used.

check_egl_extensions was mistakenly always ORing in the priv flags of
the first feature_data entry instead of referencing the i variable to
index into the array of feature data after determining that an extension

we've got into a bit of a mess with how we name platform specific

This adds API to let you override the choice of Cogl's winsys backend.
Previously it was only possible to override the winsys using the
COGL_RENDERER environment variable, but it's useful for something like
Clutter to be able to control the winsys via API without needing
environment variable tricks. This also adds API to query back the
winsys chosen by Cogl, in case you don't set an explicit override.
Signed-off-by: Neil Roberts <neil@linux.intel.com>
This adds a _cogl_init function for Cogl that we expect to be the first
thing called before anything else is done with Cogl. It's not a public
API so it's expected that all entry points for Cogl that might be the
first function used should call _cogl_init().
We currently call _cogl_init() in these functions:
cogl_renderer_new
cogl_display_new
cogl_context_new
cogl_android_set_native_window
_cogl_init() can be called multiple times, and only the first call has
any affect.
For example _cogl_init() gives us a place check and parse the COGL_DEBUG
environment variable.
Since we don't have any need to parse command line arguments (we can
always get user configuration options from the environment) our init
function doesn't require argc/argv pointers.
By saying up front that we aren't interested in command line arguments
that means we can avoid the mess that is GOption based library
initialization which is extremely fragile due to its lack of dependency
tracking between modules.

The wrapper for the can_hardware_repeat had a cut and paste error so
it would call the wrong function on the child texture.
Many thanks to Owen Taylor for finding this bug.
Instead of using _cogl_xlib_add/remove_filter we now use
_cogl_renderer_add/remove_native_filter. The _cogl_xlib_add_filter API
was only required as a stop gap while EGL support was still in Clutter
because in that case we were using the stub winsys and didn't have a
CoglRenderer.
This removes the redundant _cogl_xlib_trap/untrap_errors functions that
simply wrap equivalent functions in the _cogl_renderer_xlib namespace.
These were originally only required while the EGL winsys was being
handled in clutter and so there wasn't a CoglRenderer in all cases.
In the winsys vtable .xlib_get_visual_info and
.onscreen_x11_get_window_xid should be guarded by the
COGL_HAS_EGL_PLATFORM_POWERVR_X11_SUPPORT because they need to be there
if cogl is configured with --enable-xlib-egl-platform but not if just
configured with --enable-xlib.
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.
By using the EGL_KHR_image_base/pixmap extensions this adds support for
wrapping X11 pixmaps as CoglTexture2D textures. Clutter will
automatically take advantage of this if using the
ClutterX11TexturePixmap actor.
This adds an internal texture_2d constructor that can wrap an EGLImage
as a CoglTexture2D. The plan is to utilize this for texture-from-pixmap
support with EGL as well as creating textures from wayland buffers.
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.
This exposes a CoglTexture2D typedef and adds the following experimental
API:
cogl_is_texture_2d
cogl_texture_2d_new_with_size
cogl_texture_2d_new_from_data
cogl_texture_2d_new_from_foreign
Since this is experimental API you need to define
COGL_ENABLE_EXPERIMENTAL_API before including cogl.h.
Note: With these new entrypoints we now expect a CoglContext pointer to
be passed in, instead of assuming there is a default context. The aim is
that for Cogl 2.0 we won't have a default context so this is a step in
that direction.
This reverts commit b2e41f1bfa.
We are backing out the quartz specific stub winsys since we can simply
use the generic stub winsys on quartz until we develop a standalone
winsys. Since we plan on removing all special cases for the stub winsys
by handling with a winsys vtable like all the others it's better if we
don't introduce a quartz specific stub.
This reverts commit eb81ec945c.

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.
When try_create_context() returns saying that it has to be run again to
try to create a context with an alternate configuration, it might not
have a GError set (and in fact it does not right now).
g_clear_error() handles that case where error is still NULL;
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.
To support toolkits targeting wayland and using Cogl we allow toolkits
to be responsible for connecting to a wayland display and asking Cogl to
use the toolkit owned display and compositor object. Note: eventually
the plan is that wayland will allow retrospective querying of objects so
we won't need the foreign compositor API when Cogl can simply query it
from the foreign display.
The EGL API doesn't provide for a way to explicitly select a platform
when the driver can support multiple. Mesa allows selection using an
EGL_PLATFORM environment variable though so we set that to "wayland"
when we know that's what we want.
All of the winsys backends didn't handle cleaning up the CoglOnscreen
properly so that they would assert in cogl_onscreen_free because the
winsys pointer is never freed. They also didn't cope if deinit is
called before init (which will be the case if an onscreen is created
and freed without being allocated).
When SetPixelFormat fails, the DC would get released but none of the
other resources would be freed. This patch makes it call
_cogl_winsys_onscreen_deinit on failure to clean up all of the
resources. The patch looks big because it moves the onscreen_deinit
and onscreen_bind functions.
Some of the virtual functions in CoglWinsysVtable only need to be
implemented for specific backends or when a specific feature is
advertised. This splits the vtable struct into two commented sections
marking which are optional and which are required. Wherever an
optional function is used there is now a g_return_if_fail to ensure
there is an implementation.
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 extends cogl_onscreen_x11_set_foreign_xid to take a callback to a
function that details the event mask the Cogl requires the application
to select on foreign windows. This is required because Cogl, for
example, needs to track size changes of a window and may also in the
future want other notifications such as map/unmap.
Most applications wont need to use the foreign xwindow apis, but those
that do are required to pass a valid callback and update the event mask
of their window according to Cogl's requirements.
This adds Cogl API to show and hide onscreen framebuffers. We don't want
to go too far down the road of abstracting window system APIs with Cogl
since that would be out of its scope but the previous idea that we would
automatically map framebuffers on allocation except for those made from
foreign windows wasn't good enough. The problem is that we don't want to
make Clutter always create stages from foreign windows but with the
automatic map semantics then Clutter doesn't get an opportunity to
select for all the events it requires before mapping. This meant that we
wouldn't be delivered a mouse enter event for windows mapped underneath
the cursor which would break Clutters handling of button press events.
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.
For now we are going for the semantics that when a CoglOnscreen is first
allocated then it will automatically be mapped. This is for convenience
and if you don't want that behaviour then it is possible to instead
create an Onscreen from a foreign X window and in that case it wont be
mapped automatically.
This approach means that Cogl doesn't need onscreen_map/unmap functions
but it's possible we'll decide later that we can't avoid adding such
functions and we'll have to change these semantics.
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.
So that we can dynamically select what winsys backend to use at runtime
we need to have some indirection to how code accesses the winsys instead
of simply calling _cogl_winsys* functions that would collide if we
wanted to compile more than one backend into Cogl.
This moves the GLX specific code from cogl-texture-pixmap-x11.c into
cogl-winsys-glx.c. If we want the winsys components to by dynamically
loadable then we can't have GLX code scattered outside of
cogl-winsys-glx.c. This also sets us up for supporting the
EGL_texture_from_pixmap extension which is almost identical to the
GLX_texture_from_pixmap extension.
As was recently done for the GLX window system code, this commit moves
the EGL window system code down from the Clutter backend code into a
Cogl winsys.
Note: currently the cogl/configure.ac is hard coded to only build the GLX
winsys so currently this is only available when building Cogl as part
of Clutter.
Commit b061f737 moved _cogl_winsys_has_feature to the common winsys
code so there's no need to define it in the stub winsys any more. This
was breaking builds for backends using the stub winsys.
The comparison for finding onscreen framebuffers in
find_onscreen_for_xid had a small thinko so that it would ignore
framebuffers when the negation of the type is onscreen. This ends up
doing the right thing anyway because the onscreen type has the value 0
and the offscreen type has the value 1 but presumably it would fail if
we ever added any other framebuffer types.
The code for _cogl_winsys_has_feature will be identical in all of the
winsys backends for the time being, so it seems to make sense to have
it in the common cogl-winsys.c file.
Previously the mask of available winsys features was stored in a
CoglBitmask. That isn't the ideal type to use for this because it is
intended for a growable array of bits so it can allocate extra memory
if there are more than 31 flags set. For the winsys feature flags the
highest used bit is known at compile time so it makes sense to
allocate a fixed array instead. This is conceptually similar to the
CoglDebugFlags which are stored in an array of integers with macros to
test a bit in the array. This moves the macros used for CoglDebugFlags
to cogl-flags.h and makes them more generic so they can be shared with
CoglContext.
Instead of having cogl_renderer_xlib_add_filter and friends there is
now cogl_renderer_add_native_filter which can be used regardless of
the backend. The callback function for the filter now just takes a
void pointer instead of an XEvent pointer which should be interpreted
differently depending on the backend. For example, on Xlib it would
still be an XEvent but on Windows it could be a MSG. This simplifies
the code somewhat because the _cogl_xlib_add_filter no longer needs to
have its own filter list when a stub renderer is used because there is
always a renderer available.
cogl_renderer_xlib_handle_event has also been renamed to
cogl_renderer_handle_native_event. This just forwards the event on to
all of the listeners. The backend renderer is expected to register its
own event filter if it wants to process the events in some way.
We need to guard the usage of symbols related to the
GLX_INTEL_swap_event extension, to avoid breaking on platforms and/or
versions of Mesa that do not expose that extension.
It's generally useful to be able to query the width and height of a
framebuffer and we expect to need this in Clutter when we move the
eglnative backend code into Cogl since Clutter will need to read back
the fixed size of the framebuffer when realizing the stage.
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 migrates all the GLX window system code down from the Clutter
backend code into a Cogl winsys. Moving OpenGL window system binding
code down from Clutter into Cogl is the biggest blocker to having Cogl
become a standalone 3D graphics library, so this is an important step in
that direction.
This tries to make the naming style of files under cogl/winsys/
consistent with other cogl source files. In particular private header
files didn't have a '-private' infix.
When we added the texture->framebuffers member a _cogl_texture_init
funciton was added to initialize the list of framebuffers associated
with a texture to NULL. All the backends were updated except the
x11 tfp backend. This was causing crashes in test-pixmap.
This applies an API naming change that's been deliberated over for a
while now which is to rename CoglMaterial to CoglPipeline.
For now the new pipeline API is marked as experimental and public
headers continue to talk about materials not pipelines. The CoglMaterial
API is now maintained in terms of the cogl_pipeline API internally.
Currently this API is targeting Cogl 2.0 so we will have time to
integrate it properly with other upcoming Cogl 2.0 work.
The basic reasons for the rename are:
- That the term "material" implies to many people that they are
constrained to fragment processing; perhaps as some kind of high-level
texture abstraction.
- In Clutter they get exposed by ClutterTexture actors which may be
re-inforcing this misconception.
- When comparing how other frameworks use the term material, a material
sometimes describes a multi-pass fragment processing technique which
isn't the case in Cogl.
- In code, "CoglPipeline" will hopefully be a much more self documenting
summary of what these objects represent; a full GPU pipeline
configuration including, for example, vertex processing, fragment
processing and blending.
- When considering the API documentation story, at some point we need a
document introducing developers to how the "GPU pipeline" works so it
should become intuitive that CoglPipeline maps back to that
description of the GPU pipeline.
- This is consistent in terminology and concept to OpenGL 4's new
pipeline object which is a container for program objects.
Note: The cogl-material.[ch] files have been renamed to
cogl-material-compat.[ch] because otherwise git doesn't seem to treat
the change as a moving the old cogl-material.c->cogl-pipeline.c and so
we loose all our git-blame history.
When compiling for non-glx platforms the winsys feature data array
ends up empty. Empty arrays cause problems for MSVC so this patch adds
a stub entry so that the array always has at least one entry.
Based on a patch by Ole André Vadla Ravnås
There are ordering issues in the pixmap destruction with current and
past X11 server, Mesa and dri2. Under some circumstances, an X pixmap
might be destroyed with the GLX pixmap still referencing it, and thus
the X server will decide to destroy the GLX pixmap as well; then, when
Cogl tries to destroy the GLX pixmap, it gets BadDrawable errors.
Clutter 1.2 used to trap + sync all calls to glXDestroyPixmap(), but
then we assumed that the ordering issue had been solved. So, we're back
to square 1.
I left a Big Fat Comment™ right above the glXDestroyPixmap() call
referencing the bug and the reasoning behind the trap, so that we don't
go and remove it in the future without checking that the issue has been
in fact solved.
http://bugzilla.clutter-project.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2324
In general cogl-material.c has become far to large to manage in one
source file. As one of the ways to try and break it down this patch
starts to move some of lower level texture unit state management out
into cogl-material-opengl.c. The naming is such because the plan is to
follow up and migrate the very GL specific state flushing code into the
same file.
Using 'r' to name the third component is problematic because that is
commonly used to represent the red component of a vector representing
a color. Under GLSL this is awkward because the texture swizzling for
a vector uses a single letter for each component and the names for
colors, textures and positions are synonymous. GLSL works around this
by naming the components of the texture s, t, p and q. Cogl already
effectively already exposes this naming because it exposes GLSL so it
makes sense to use that naming consistently. Another alternative could
be u, v and w. This is what Blender and Direct3D use. However the w
component conflicts with the w component of a position vertex.
There was a lot of common code that was copied to all of the backends
to convert the data to a suitable format and wrap it into a CoglBitmap
so that it can be passed to _cogl_texture_driver_upload_subregion_to_gl.
This patch moves the common code to cogl-texture.c so that the virtual
just takes a CoglBitmap that is already in the right format.
Previously cogl_texture_get_data would pretty much directly pass on to
the get_data texture virtual function. This ended up with a lot of
common code that was copied to all of the backends. For example, the
method is expected to return the required data size if the data
pointer is NULL and to calculate its own rowstride if the rowstride is
0. Also it needs to convert the downloaded data if GL can't support
that format directly.
This patch moves the common code to cogl-texture.c so the virtual is
always called with a format that can be downloaded directly by GL and
with a valid rowstride. If the download fails then the virtual can
return FALSE in which case cogl-texture will use the draw and read
fallback.
We had several different ways of exposing experimental API, in one case
the symbols had no special suffix, in two other ways the symbols were
given an _EXP suffix but in different ways.
This makes all experimental API have an _EXP suffix which is handled
using #defines in the header so the prototypes in the .c and .h files
don't have the suffix.
The documented reason for the suffix is so that anyone watching Cogl for
ABI changes who sees symbols disappear will hopefully understand what's
going on.
A pedantic change to get_fbconfig_for_depth() so that we don't need to
make any assumptions about the GLXFBConfig typedef or what values
we can overload to indicate an invalid config.
get_fbconfig_for_depth() now simply returns FALSE if it fails to find a
config.
This is a publicly exposed texture backend to create a texture which
contains the contents of an X11 pixmap. The API is currently marked as
experimental.
The backend internally holds a handle to another texture. All of the
backend virtuals simply redirect to the internal texture.
The texture can optionally be automatically updated if the
automatic_updates parameter is TRUE. If set then Cogl will listen for
damage events on the pixmap and update the texture accordingly.
Alternatively a damage object can be created externally and passed
down to Cogl.
The updates can be performed with XGetImage, XShmGetImage or the
GLX_EXT_texture_pixmap extension. If the TFP extension is used it will
optionally try to create a rectangle texture if the driver does not
support NPOTs or it is forced through the
COGL_PIXMAP_TEXTURE_RECTANGLE or CLUTTER_PIXMAP_TEXTURE_RECTANGLE
environment variables.
If the GLXFBConfig does not support mipmapping then it will fallback
to using X{Shm,}GetImage. It keeps a separate texture around for this
so that it can later start using the TFP texture again if the texture
is later drawn with mipmaps disabled.
This is similar to clutter_x11_{,un}trap_errors except that it stores
the previous trap state in a caller-allocated struct so that it can be
re-entrant.
Make _cogl_xlib_trap_errors re-entrant
(this will be squashed into an earlier commit)
This adds the framework needed to check for winsys specific extensions
(such as GLX extensions) using a similar mechanism to the
cogl-feature-functions header. There is a separate
cogl-winsys-feature-functions header which will contain macros to list
the extensions and functions. cogl_create_context_winsys now calls
_cogl_feature_check for each of these functions. _cogl_feature_check
has had to be changed to accept the driver prefix as the first
parameter so that it can prepend "GLX" rather than "GL" in this case.
The Clutter X11 backend now passes all events through
_cogl_xlib_handle_event. This function can now internally be hooked
with _cogl_xlib_add_filter. These are added to a list of callbacks
which are all called in turn by _cogl_xlib_handle_event. This is
intended to be used internally in Cogl by any parts that need to see
Xlib events.
Cogl now also has an internally exposed function to set a pointer to
the Xlib display. This is stored in a global variable. The Clutter X11
backend sets this.
_cogl_xlib_handle_event and _cogl_xlib_set_display can be removed once
Cogl gains a proper window system abstraction.
This creates a separate struct to store the fields of the context that
are specific to the winsys. This is all stored in one file but ideally
this could work more like the CoglContextDriver struct and have a
different header for each winsys.
This stubs out an xlib event handling mechanism for Cogl. The intention
is for Clutter to use this to forward all x11 events to Cogl. As we move
winsys functionality down into Cogl, Cogl will become responsible for
handling a number of X events: ConfigureNotify events for onscreen
framebuffers, swap events and Damage events for cogl_x11_texture_pixmap.
Since using addresses that might change is something that finally
the FSF acknowledge as a plausible scenario (after changing address
twice), the license blurb in the source files should use the URI
for getting the license in case the library did not come with it.
Not that URIs cannot possibly change, but at least it's easier to
set up a redirection at the same place.
As a side note: this commit closes the oldes bug in Clutter's bug
report tool.

Some changes to make COGL pass distcheck with Automake 1.11 and
anal-retentiveness turned up to 11.
The "major" change is the flattening of the winsys/ part of COGL,
which is built directly inside libclutter-cogl.la instead of an
intermediate libclutter-cogl-winsys.la object.
Ideally, the whole COGL should be flattened out using a
quasi-non-recursive Automake layout; unfortunately, the driver/
sub-section ships with identical targets and Automake cannot
distinguish GL and GLES objects.
As part of an incremental process to have Cogl be a standalone project we
want to re-consider how we organise the Cogl source code.
Currently this is the structure I'm aiming for:
cogl/
cogl/
<put common source here>
winsys/
cogl-glx.c
cogl-wgl.c
driver/
gl/
gles/
os/ ?
utils/
cogl-fixed
cogl-matrix-stack?
cogl-journal?
cogl-primitives?
pango/
The new winsys component is a starting point for migrating window system
code (i.e. x11,glx,wgl,osx,egl etc) from Clutter to Cogl.
The utils/ and pango/ directories aren't added by this commit, but they are
noted because I plan to add them soon.
Overview of the planned structure:
* The winsys/ API is the API that binds OpenGL to a specific window system,
be that X11 or win32 etc. Example are glx, wgl and egl. Much of the logic
under clutter/{glx,osx,win32 etc} should migrate here.
* Note there is also the idea of a winsys-base that may represent a window
system for which there are multiple winsys APIs. An example of this is
x11, since glx and egl may both be used with x11. (currently only Clutter
has the idea of a winsys-base)
* The driver/ represents a specific varient of OpenGL. Currently we have "gl"
representing OpenGL 1.4-2.1 (mostly fixed function) and "gles" representing
GLES 1.1 (fixed funciton) and 2.0 (fully shader based)
* Everything under cogl/ should fundamentally be supporting access to the
GPU. Essentially Cogl's most basic requirement is to provide a nice GPU
Graphics API and drawing a line between this and the utility functionality
we add to support Clutter should help keep this lean and maintainable.
* Code under utils/ as suggested builds on cogl/ adding more convenient
APIs or mechanism to optimize special cases. Broadly speaking you can
compare cogl/ to OpenGL and utils/ to GLU.
* clutter/pango will be moved to clutter/cogl/pango
How some of the internal configure.ac/pkg-config terminology has changed:
backendextra -> CLUTTER_WINSYS_BASE # e.g. "x11"
backendextralib -> CLUTTER_WINSYS_BASE_LIB # e.g. "x11/libclutter-x11.la"
clutterbackend -> {CLUTTER,COGL}_WINSYS # e.g. "glx"
CLUTTER_FLAVOUR -> {CLUTTER,COGL}_WINSYS
clutterbackendlib -> CLUTTER_WINSYS_LIB
CLUTTER_COGL -> COGL_DRIVER # e.g. "gl"
Note: The CLUTTER_FLAVOUR and CLUTTER_COGL defines are kept for apps
As the first thing to take advantage of the new winsys component in Cogl;
cogl_get_proc_address() has been moved from cogl/{gl,gles}/cogl.c into
cogl/common/cogl.c and this common implementation first trys
_cogl_winsys_get_proc_address() but if that fails then it falls back to
gmodule.
