This adds a check in clutter_actor_real_queue_redraw after calling
_clutter_actor_get_stage_internal to check in case the actor doesn't yet
have an associated stage so we can avoid passing a NULL stage pointer to
_clutter_stage_set_pick_buffer_valid which could cause a crash.
We have an optimization to track when there are multiple picks per
frame so we can do a full render of the pick buffer to reduce the
number of pick renders for a static scene.
There was a problem though in that we were tracking this information in
the ClutterMainContext, but conceptually this doesn't really make sense
because the pick buffer is associated with a stage framebuffer and there
can be multiple stages for one context.
This patch moves the state tracking to ClutterStage.
This reverts commit d7e86e2696.
This was a half baked patch that was pushed a bit early since it broke
test-texture-pick-with-alpha + the commit message refers to a change on
the wip/paint-box branch that hasn't happened yet.
We have an optimization to track when there are multiple picks per
frames so we can do a full render of the pick buffer to reduce the
number of pick renders for a static scene.
There were two problems with how we were tracking this state though.
Firstly we were tracking this information in the ClutterMainContext, but
conceptually this doesn't really make sense because the pick buffer is
associated with a stage framebuffer and there can be multiple stages for
one context. Secondly - since the change to how redraws are queued - we
weren't marking the pick buffer as invalid when a queuing a redraw, we
were only marking the buffer invalid when signaling/finishing the
queue-redraw process, which is now deferred until just before a paint.
This meant using clutter_stage_get_actor_at_pos after a scenegraph
change could give a wrong result if it just read from an existing (but
technically invalid) pick buffer.
This patch moves the state tracking to ClutterStage, and ensures the
buffer is invalidated in _clutter_stage_queue_actor_redraw.

The Constraint should plug directly into the allocation mechanism, and
modify the allocation of the actor to which they are applied to. This is
similar to the mechanism used by the Effect class to modify the paint
sequence of an actor.
This adds a verbose warning that will be displayed if
clutter_actor_allocate is passed an actor that isn't a descendent of a
ClutterStage. Layouting should always bubble up from a stage so this
condition is likely to indicate a buggy container that allocating a
child that it has already unparented.
When building actor relative transforms, instead of using the matrix
stack to combine transformations and making assumptions about what is
currently on the stack we now just explicitly initialize an identity
matrix and apply transforms to that.
This removes the full_vertex_t typedef for internal transformation code
and we just use ClutterVertex.
ClutterStage now implements apply_transform like any other actor now
and the code we had in _cogl_setup_viewport has been moved to the
stage's apply_transform instead.
ClutterStage now tracks an explicit projection matrix and viewport
geometry. The projection matrix is derived from the perspective whenever
that changes, and the viewport is updated when the stage gets a new
allocation. The SYNC_MATRICES mechanism has been removed in favour of
_clutter_stage_dirty_viewport/projection() APIs that get used when
switching between multiple stages to ensure cogl has the latest
information about the onscreen framebuffer.
This adds _clutter_actor_get_stage_internal to clutter-private.h since
we plan to use it in clutter-offscreen-effect when preparing to
redirect an actor offscreen.
Comprehensively add (out) annotations to functions parameters
returning int/float/double.
Not handled here: structure out returns like ClutterColor or
ClutterPerspective or GValue that should get (out caller-allocates).
Not handled here: Cogl

This clarifies the documentation for clutter_actor_queue_redraw to
explain that custom actors should call this whenever some private state
changes that affects painting *or* picking.
The idea is that if we see multiple picks per frame then that implies
the visible scene has become static. In this case we can promote the
next pick render to be unclipped so we have valid pick values for the
entire stage. Now we can continue to read from this cached buffer until
the stage contents do visibly change.
Thanks to Luca Bruno on #clutter for this idea!
* wip/table-layout:
Add ClutterTableLayout, a layout showing children in rows and columns
box-layout: Use allocate_align_fill()
bin-layout: Migrate to allocate_align_fill()
actor: Add allocate_align_fill()
test-flow-layout: Use BindConstraints
Layout managers are using the same code to allocate a child while taking
into consideration:
• horizontal and vertical alignment
• horizontal and vertical fill
• the preferred minimum and natural size, depending
on the :request-mode property
• the text direction for the horizontal alignment
• an offset given by the fixed position properties
Given the amount of code involved, and the amount of details that can go
horribly wrong while copy and pasting such code in various classes - let
alone various projects - Clutter should provide an allocate() variant
that does the right thing in the right way. This way, we have a single
point of failure.
This adds a wrapper macro to clutter-private that will use
g_object_notify_by_pspec if it's compiled against a version of GLib
that is sufficiently new. Otherwise it will notify by the property
name as before by extracting the name from the pspec. The objects can
then store a static array of GParamSpecs and notify using those as
suggested in the documentation for g_object_notify_by_pspec.
Note that the name of the variable used for storing the array of
GParamSpecs is obj_props instead of properties as used in the
documentation because some places in Clutter uses 'properties' as the
name of a local variable.
Mose of the classes in Clutter have been converted using the script in
the bug report. Some classes have not been modified even though the
script picked them up as described here:
json-generator:
We probably don't want to modify the internal copy of JSON
behaviour-depth:
rectangle:
score:
stage-manager:
These aren't using the separate GParamSpec* variable style.
blur-effect:
win32/device-manager:
Don't actually define any properties even though it has the enum.
box-layout:
flow-layout:
Have some per-child properties that don't work automatically with
the script.
clutter-model:
The script gets confused with ClutterModelIter
stage:
Script gets confused because PROP_USER_RESIZE doesn't match
"user-resizable"
test-layout:
Don't really want to modify the tests

The Animatable interface was created specifically for the Animation
class. It turns out that it might be fairly useful to others - such as
ClutterAnimator and ClutterState.
The newly-added API in this cycle for querying and accessing custom
properties should not require that we pass a ClutterAnimation to the
implementations: the Animatable itself should be enough.
This is necessary to allow language bindings to wrap
clutter_actor_animate() correctly and do type validation and
demarshalling between native values and GValues; an Animation instance
is not available until the animate() call returns, and validation must
be performed before that happens.
There is nothing we can do about the animate_property() virtual
function - but in that case we might want to be able to access the
animation from an Animatable implementation to get the Interval for
the property, just like ClutterActor does in order to animate
ClutterActorMeta objects.
It's possible - though not recommended - that user code causes the
destruction of an actor in one of the notification handlers for
flag-based properties. We should protect the multiple notification
emission with g_object_ref/unref.
Up until now, the "behaviours" member of an actor definition was parsed
by the ClutterScript parser itself - even though it's not strictly
necessary.
In an effort to minimize the ad hoc code in the Script parser, we should
let ClutterActor handle all the special cases that involve
actor-specific members.
The scanner has some issues when parsing valid gtk-doc annotations; we
should make its (and, in return, ours) life easier.
We still get warnings for code declared in <programlisting> sections,
unfortunately.
ClutterActor should allow attaching actions, constraints and effects
just like it allows behaviours, e.g.:
{
...
"constraints" : [
{
"type" : "ClutterAlignConstraint",
"source" : "stage",
"align-axis" : "x-axis",
"factor" : 0.5
},
{
"type" : "ClutterAlignConstraint",
"source" : "stage",
"align-axis" : "y-axis",
"factor" : 0.5
}
],
...
}
or:
{
...
"actions" : [
{
"type" : "ClutterDragAction",
"signals" : [
{ "name" : "drag-end", "handler" : "on_drag_end" }
]
}
],
...
}
In order to do so, we use the Scriptable interface implementation and
add three new custom properties accepting an array; then we parse each
member of the array as a new object.
The marshallers we use for the signals are declared in a private header,
and it stands to reason that they should also be hidden in the shared
object by using the common '_' prefix. We are also using some direct
g_cclosure_marshal_* symbol from GLib, instead of consistently use the
clutter_marshal_* symbol.
It is often useful to determine if one actor is an ancestor of
another. Add a method to do that.

Since ClutterEffect is an ActorMeta it should be possible to animate the
properties of named effects using the @effects syntax, just like it
happens for actions and constraints.
ClutterEffect is an abstract class that should be used to apply effects
on generic actors.
The ClutterEffect class just defines what an effect should implement; it
could be defined as an interface, but we might want to add some default
behavior dependent on the internal state at a later point.
The effect API applies to any actor, so we need to provide a way to
assign an effect to an actor, and let ClutterActor call the Effect
methods during the paint sequence.
Once an effect is attached to an actor we will perform the paint in this
order:
• Effect::pre_paint()
• Actor::paint signal emission
• Effect::post_paint()
Since an effect might collide with the Shader class, we either allow a
shader or an effect for the time being.
When getting the relative modelview matrix we need to reset it to the
stage's initial state or, at least, initialize it to the identity
matrix, instead of assuming we have an empty stack.
While this is totally fine (0 in the pointer context will be converted
in the right internal NULL representation, which could be a value with
some bits to 1), I believe it's clearer to use NULL in the pointer
context.
It seems that, in most case, it's more an overlook than a deliberate
choice to use FALSE/0 as NULL, eg. copying a _COGL_GET_CONTEXT (ctx, 0)
or a g_return_val_if_fail (cond, 0) from a function returning a
gboolean.
New virtual functions cannot go wherever they want, if we need to
preserve the ABI.
Also, the coding style should match the rest of ClutterActor and
Clutter's own coding style.
Added the implementation for clutter_actor_get_accessible, virtual
ClutterActor function, used to obtain the accessible object of
any ClutterActor.
As it is defined virtual, it would be possible to redefine it, so
any custom clutter actor could implement their accessibility object,
withouth relying totally on a accessibility implementation module.
See gtkiconview as example.

The ClutterActor API should have modifier methods for adding, removing
and retrieving Actions and Constraints using the ClutterActorMeta:name
property - mostly, for convenience.
By implementing the newly added support for custom animatable
properties, we can allow addressing action and constraint properties
from ClutterAnimation and clutter_actor_animate().
