The GSource is created using cogl_glib_source_new which takes a

Cogl reports.
The header is only included and the source only compiled if Cogl is

out of idle. This gives Cogl winsys's the ability poll file
descriptors for events. For example when handing swap complete

This adds the following new public experimental functions to set
uniform values on a CoglPipeline:
void
cogl_pipeline_set_uniform_1f (CoglPipeline *pipeline,
int uniform_location,
float value);
void
cogl_pipeline_set_uniform_1i (CoglPipeline *pipeline,
int uniform_location,

void
cogl_pipeline_set_uniform_float (CoglPipeline *pipeline,

void
cogl_pipeline_set_uniform_int (CoglPipeline *pipeline,

const int *value);
void
cogl_pipeline_set_uniform_matrix (CoglPipeline *pipeline,
int uniform_location,
int dimensions,
int count,
gboolean transpose,
const float *value);
These are similar to the old functions used to set uniforms on a
CoglProgram. To get a value to pass in as the uniform_location there
is also:
int
cogl_pipeline_get_uniform_location (CoglPipeline *pipeline,
const char *uniform_name);
Conceptually the uniform locations are tied to the pipeline so that
whenever setting a value for a new pipeline the application is
expected to call this function. However in practice the uniform
locations are global to the CoglContext. The names are stored in a
linked list where the position in the list is the uniform location.
The global indices are used so that each pipeline can store a mask of
which uniforms it overrides. That way it is quicker to detect which
uniforms are different from the last pipeline that used the same
CoglProgramState so it can avoid flushing uniforms that haven't
changed. Currently the values are not actually compared which means
that it will only avoid flushing a uniform if there is a common
ancestor that sets the value (or if the same pipeline is being flushed
again - in which case the pipeline and its common ancestor are the
same thing).
The uniform values are stored in the big state of the pipeline as a
sparse linked list. A bitmask stores which values have been overridden
and only overridden values are stored in the linked list.

This exposes CoglTextureRectangle in the experimental cogl 2.0 api. For
now we just expose a single constructor;
cogl_texture_rectangle_new_with_size() but we can add more later.
This is part of going work to improve our texture apis with more
emphasis on providing low-level access to the varying semantics of
different texture types understood by the gpu instead of only trying to
present a lowest common denominator api.
CoglTextureRectangle is notably useful for never being restricted to
power of two sizes and for being sampled with non-normalized texture
coordinates which can be convenient for use a lookup tables in glsl due
to not needing separate uniforms for mapping normalized coordinates to
texels. Unlike CoglTexture2D though rectangle textures can't have a
mipmap and they only support the _CLAMP_TO_EDGE wrap mode.

Currently features are represented as bits in a 32bit mask so we
obviously can't have more than 32 features with that approach. The new
approach is to use the COGL_FLAGS_ macros which lets us handle bitmasks
without a size limit and we change the public api to accept individual
feature enums instead of a mask. This way there is no limit on the
number of features we can add to Cogl.
Instead of using cogl_features_available() there is a new
cogl_has_feature() function and for checking multiple features there is
cogl_has_features() which takes a zero terminated vararg list of
features.
In addition to being able to check for individual features this also
adds a way to query all the features currently available via
cogl_foreach_feature() which will call a callback for each feature.

no longer any ambiguity over when users can first start to query

Since gtk-doc is an optional dependency for Cogl then we need to special
case how EXTRA_DIST is initialized. It shouldn't be set when using
gtk-doc since gtk-doc.make expects to initialize EXTRA_DIST. If we
aren't using gtk-doc then it should be initialized to an empty value
instead of including gtk-doc.make so that the later lines that append
various extra png files to EXTRA_DIST won't fail.
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.

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.
Automake seems a bit fragile when trying to do cunning things like
including a file with "-include". It does not recurse into that file (if
it exists) to generate the final Makefiles.
Let's add a if BUILD_GTK_DOC guard around the gtk-doc.make inclusion

Instead of simply extending the cogl_pipeline_ namespace to add api for

cogl_depth_state_init
cogl_depth_state_set_test_enabled
cogl_depth_state_get_test_enabled
cogl_depth_state_set_test_function
cogl_depth_state_get_test_function
cogl_depth_state_set_writing_enabled
cogl_depth_state_get_writing_enabled
cogl_depth_state_set_range
cogl_depth_state_get_range

cogl_material_set_depth_test_enabled
cogl_material_get_depth_test_enabled
cogl_material_set_depth_test_function
cogl_material_get_depth_test_function
cogl_material_set_depth_writing_enabled
cogl_material_get_depth_writing_enabled

Gtk-doc can be hard to install on Windows. This patch enables people wanting to

To allow us to have gobject properties that accept a CoglMatrix value we

This add two new function that allows us to transform or project an

transforming lots of vertices at the same time, and also reduce the cost
of 3 component, non-projective transforms.
For now they are marked as experimental (you have to define
COGL_ENABLE_EXPERIMENTAL_API) because there is some concern that it
introduces some inconsistent naming. cogl_matrix_transform_point would
have to be renamed cogl_matrix_project_point to be consistent, but that
would be an API break.
This exposes the idea of a stack of source materials instead of just
having a single current material. This allows the writing of orthogonal

possibly make override changes in a derived material.
This adds a "Cogl deprecated API" chapter to the Cogl reference manual
so we can group all the documentation for deprecated symbols together
instead of having them clutter up the documentation of symbols we would

The CoglTexture3D API is only available when defining
COGL_ENABLE_EXPERIMENTAL_API so it should be listed in the experimental
section of the API reference.
Instead of exposing an API that provides an OpenGL state machine style
where you first have to bind the program to the context using
cogl_program_use() followed by updating uniforms using
cogl_program_uniform_xyz we now have uniform setter methods that take an
explicit CoglHandle for the program.
This deprecates cogl_program_use and all the cogl_program_uniform
variants and provides the following replacements:
cogl_program_set_uniform_1i
cogl_program_set_uniform_1f
cogl_program_set_uniform_int
cogl_program_set_uniform_float
cogl_program_set_uniform_matrix
This adds a publicly exposed experimental API for a 3D texture
backend. There is a feature flag which can be checked for whether 3D
textures are supported. Although we require OpenGL 1.2 which has 3D
textures in core, GLES only provides them through an extension so the
feature can be used to detect that.
The textures can be created with one of two new API functions :-
cogl_texture_3d_new_with_size
and
cogl_texture_3d_new_from_data
There is also internally a new_from_bitmap function. new_from_data is
implemented in terms of this function.
The two constructors are effectively the only way to upload data to a
3D texture. It does not work to call glTexImage2D with the
GL_TEXTURE_3D target so the virtual for cogl_texture_set_region does
nothing. It would be possible to make cogl_texture_get_data do
something sensible like returning all of the images as a single long
image but this is not currently implemented and instead the virtual
just always fails. We may want to add API specific to the 3D texture
backend to get and set a sub region of the texture.
All of those three functions can throw a GError. This will happen if
the GPU does not support 3D textures or it does not support NPOTs and
an NPOT size is requested. It will also fail if the FBO extension is
not supported and the COGL_TEXTURE_NO_AUTO_MIPMAP flag is not
given. This could be avoided by copying the code for the
GL_GENERATE_MIPMAP TexParameter fallback, but in the interests of
keeping the code simple this is not yet done.
This adds a couple of functions to cogl-texture-driver for uploading
3D data and querying the 3D proxy
texture. prep_gl_for_pixels_upload_full now also takes sets the
GL_UNPACK_IMAGE_HEIGHT parameter so that 3D textures can have padding
between the images. Whenever 3D texture is uploading, both the height
of the images and the height of all of the data is specified (either
explicitly or implicilty from the CoglBitmap) so that the image height
can be deduced by dividing by the depth.
There are many places in the texture backend that need to do
conversion using the CoglBitmap code. Currently none of these
functions can throw an error but they do return a value to indicate
failure. In future it would make sense if new texture functions could
throw an error and in that case they would want to use a CoglBitmap
error if the failure was due to the conversion. This moves the
internal CoglBitmap error from the quartz backend to be public in
cogl-bitmap.h so that it can be used in this way.
This adds a new API call to enable point sprite coordinate generation
for a material layer:
void
cogl_material_set_layer_point_sprite_coords_enabled (CoglHandle material,
int layer_index,
gboolean enable);
There is also a corresponding get function.
Enabling point sprite coords simply sets the GL_COORD_REPLACE of the
GL_POINT_SPRITE glTexEnv when flusing the material. There is no
separate application control for glEnable(GL_POINT_SPRITE). Instead it
is left permanently enabled under the assumption that it has no affect
unless GL_COORD_REPLACE is enabled for a texture unit.

The documentation for cogl_vertex_buffer_indices_get_for_quads was
using ugly ASCII art to draw the diagrams. These have now been
replaced with PNG figures.
CoglMaterialWrapMode was missing from the cogl-sections.txt file so it
wasn't getting displayed. There were also no documented return values
from the getters.
This adds two new API calls- cogl_path_set_fill_rule and
cogl_path_get_fill_rule. This allows modifying the fill rule of the
current path. In addition to the previous default fill rule of
'even-odd' it now supports the 'non-zero' rule. The fill rule is a
property of the path (not the Cogl context) so creating a new path or
preserving a path with cogl_path_get_handle affects the fill rule.
cogl_ortho is one of those APIs whos style was, for better or worse,
copied from OpenGL and for some inexplicable reason the near and far
arguments are inconsistent with the left, right, top, bottom arguments
because they don't take z coordinates they take a "distance" which
should be negative for a plane behind the viewer.
This updates the documentation to explain this.
We only had getters for the red, green, blue and alpha channels of a
color. This meant that, if you wanted to change, say, the alpha
component of a color, one would need to query the red, green and blue
channels and use set_from_4ub() or set_from_4f().
Instead of this, just provide some setters for CoglColor, using the same
naming scheme than the existing getters.
For some operations on pre-multiplied colors (say, replace the alpha
value), you need to unpremultiply the color.
This patch provides the counterpart to cogl_color_premultiply().
• 3 general fixes (typos, copy/paste),
• ignore cogl-object-private.h,
• cogl_fixed_atani() was in reality cogl_fixed_atan(), fixed in commit

• Fix the cogl-vector section: sections must have a </SECTION> tag at

cogl-buffer one. Let's shiffle it out and add that </SECTION> tag.
This provides a mechanism for associating private data with any
CoglObject. We expect Clutter will use this to associate weak materials

Since the API is experimental you will need to define
COGL_ENABLE_EXPERIMENTAL_API before including cogl.h if you want to use
the API.
Previously, Cogl's texture coordinate system was effectively always
GL_REPEAT so that if an application specifies coordinates outside the
range 0→1 it would get repeated copies of the texture. It would
however change the mode to GL_CLAMP_TO_EDGE if all of the coordinates
are in the range 0→1 so that in the common case that the whole texture
is being drawn with linear filtering it will not blend in edge pixels
from the opposite sides.
This patch adds the option for applications to change the wrap mode
per layer. There are now three wrap modes: 'repeat', 'clamp-to-edge'
and 'automatic'. The automatic map mode is the default and it
implements the previous behaviour. The wrap mode can be changed for
the s and t coordinates independently. I've tried to make the
internals support setting the r coordinate but as we don't support 3D
textures yet I haven't exposed any public API for it.
The texture backends still have a set_wrap_mode virtual but this value
is intended to be transitory and it will be changed whenever the
material is flushed (although the backends are expected to cache it so
that it won't use too many GL calls). In my understanding this value
was always meant to be transitory and all primitives were meant to set
the value before drawing. However there were comments suggesting that
this is not the expected behaviour. In particular the vertex buffer
drawing code never set a wrap mode so it would end up with whatever
the texture was previously used for. These issues are now fixed
because the material will always set the wrap modes.
There is code to manually implement clamp-to-edge for textures that
can't be hardware repeated. However this doesn't fully work because it
relies on being able to draw the stretched parts using quads with the
same values for tx1 and tx2. The texture iteration code doesn't
support this so it breaks. This is a separate bug and it isn't
trivially solved.
When flushing a material there are now extra options to set wrap mode
overrides. The overrides are an array of values for each layer that
specifies an override for the s, t or r coordinates. The primitives
use this to implement the automatic wrap mode. cogl_polygon also uses
it to set GL_CLAMP_TO_BORDER mode for its trick to render sliced
textures. Although this code has been added it looks like the sliced
trick has been broken for a while and I haven't attempted to fix it
here.
I've added a constant to represent the maximum number of layers that a
material supports so that I can size the overrides array. I've set it
to 32 because as far as I can tell we have that limit imposed anyway
because the other flush options use a guint32 to store a flag about
each layer. The overrides array ends up adding 32 bytes to each flush
options struct which may be a concern.

This adds three new API calls:
CoglHandle cogl_path_get()
void cogl_path_set(CoglHandle path)
CoglHandle cogl_path_copy(CoglHandle path)
All of the fields relating to the path have been moved from the Cogl
context to a new CoglPath handle type. The cogl context now just
contains a CoglPath handle. All of the existing path commands
manipulate the data in the current path handle. cogl_path_new now just
creates a new path handle and unrefs the old one.
The path handle can be stored for later with cogl_path_get. The path
can then be copied with cogl_path_copy. Internally it implements
copy-on-write semantics with an extra optimisation that it will only
copy the data if the new path is modified, but not if the original
path is modified. It can do this because the only way to modify a path
is by appending to it so the copied path is able to store its own path
length and only render the nodes up to that length. For this to work
the copied path also needs to keep its own copies of the path extents
because the parent path may change these by adding nodes.
The clip stack now uses the cogl_path_copy mechanism to store paths in
the stack instead of directly copying the data. This should save some
memory and processing time.
Although cogl_multiply_matrix was consistent with OpenGL, after further
consideration it was agreed that cogl_transform is a better name. Given
that it's in the global cogl_ namespace cogl_transform seems more self
documenting.
Gtk-doc is reporting a lot of false positives in the unused text file,
mostly because of new private files that have been added to Cogl but not
to the gtk-doc ignore list for the Cogl API reference.
Once the false positives have been removed we have a couple of really
missing symbols that should be added to the cogl-sections.txt file.
