Since GLX and EGL are abstracted by Cogl the two backends are both
implementing everything using the Cogl API and they are almost
identical.
This updates the egl backend to support everything that the glx backend
supports. Now that EGL and GLX are abstracted by Cogl, the plan is that
we will squash the clutter-egl/glx backends into one. Since the EGL
backend in clutter can conditionally not depend on X11 we will use the
EGL backend as the starting point of our common backend.

Cogl has now been split out into a standalone project with a separate
repository at git://git.gnome.org/cogl. From now on the Clutter build
will now simply look for a cogl-1.0 pkg-config file to find a suitable
Cogl library to link against at build time.
When comparing the wrap modes of two pipeline layers it now considers
COGL_WRAP_MODE_AUTOMATIC to be equivalent to CLAMP_TO_EDGE. By the
time the pipeline is in the journal, the upper primitive code is
expected to have overridden this wrap mode with something else if it
wants any other behaviour. This is important for getting text to batch
together with textures because the text explicitly sets the wrap mode
to CLAMP_TO_EDGE on its pipeline.
The material cache will now only set the special combine mode if the
texture only has an alpha component. The atlased textures will have
all four components so it will leave the combine functions at the
default. This increases the chances of batching between glyphs and
images.
When using the global atlas, the glyph from cairo is now rendered into
an ARGB surface rather than an alpha-only surface.
Instead of creating just two materials (one for texturing and one for
solid primitives) the pango renderer now maintains a cache of
pipelines. The display list can request a pipeline for a texture from
the cache. The same pipeline cache is used by all display lists so
that the pipelines can be shared. This avoids changing the texture on
the material during a paint run.
It now avoids trying to reserve space for zero-sized glyphs. That
happens for example when the layout contains a space. This was causing
the regular glyph cache to be used because the global atlas does not
support zero-sized images. That would then break up the
batching. Instead it now still reserves an entry in the cache but
leaves the texture as COGL_INVALID_HANDLE.
When rendering a glyph from a texture, instead of adding the glyph's
texture handle to the display list it now retrieves the base texture
using _cogl_texture_foreach_subtexture_in_region and adds that
instead. That way the display can recognise that glyphs in the global
atlas are sharing the same texture and combine them into one VBO.
Whenever the glyph cache puts a glyph in the global atlas it will now
register for notifications of reorganisation of the global
atlases. When this happens it will forward this on as a notification
of reorganisation of the glyph cache.
This adds cogl_atlas_texture_* functions to register a callback that
will get invoked whenever any of the CoglAtlas's the textures use get
reorganized. The callback is global and is not tied to any particular
atlas texture.
If mipmapping is disabled, it will now try to create a standalone
atlas texture for a glyph rather than putting it in the atlas.
If the atlas texture can't be created then it will fallback to the
glyph cache.
This adds a new function called _cogl_atlas_texture_new_with_size. The
old new_from_bitmap function now just calls this and updates the
texture with the data.
If the texture can't be hardware repeated (ie, if it is sliced or it
has waste) then Cogl will reject the layer when rendering with a
VBO. In this case we should always fall back to rendering with
cogl_rectangle.
This commit is only needed temporarily because Cogl will end up
putting atlas textures in the display list. A later commit in the
series will make it so that the display list always has primitive
textures in it so this commit can be reverted.
This reverts the changes in 54d8aadf which combined the two glyph
caches into one. We want to start using separate caches again so that
we can non-mipmapped textures into the global atlas.
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.
When building on windows for example we need to ensure we pass
-no-undefined to the linker. Although we were substituting a
COGL_EXTRA_LDFLAGS variable from our configure.ac we forgot to
reference that when linking cogl-pango.
For compatibility with the way we build Cogl as part of Clutter we now
substitute an empty MAINTAINER_CFLAGS variable. When building Cogl
standalone all our extra CFLAGS go through COGL_EXTRA_CFLAGS so the
separate MAINTAINER_CFLAGS aren't used, but automake will get confused
if a substitution isn't made.
This fixes the gdk-pixbuf check to not mistakenly check for the "xi"
package instead of gdk-pixbuf and remove a spurious listing "gl" in
COGL_PKG_REQUIRES which should only be there when we are using using
opengl not if we are using gles.
When building on windows for example we need to ensure we pass
-no-undefined to the linker. Although we were substituting a
COGL_EXTRA_LDFLAGS variable from our configure.ac we forgot to
reference that when linking cogl.
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.
This is a workaround for a bug on OSX for some radeon hardware that
we can't verify and the referenced bug link is no longer valid.
If this is really still a problem then a new bug should be opened and we
can look at putting the fix in some more appropriate place than
cogl-gl.c
We want to be able to split Cogl out as a standalone project but there
are still some window systems that aren't natively supported by Cogl.
This allows Clutter to support those window systems directly but still
work with a standalone Cogl library.
This also ensures we set the SUPPORT_STUB conditional in clutter's
configure.ac when building for win32/osx and wayland.
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.
Instead of using AC_DEFINE for the various COGL_HAS_PLATFORM defines
this now adds them to the COGL_DEFINES_SYMBOLS variable which gets
substituted into the public cogl-defines.h header.
This adds a simple standalone Cogl application that can be used to
smoke test a standalone build of Cogl without Clutter.
This also adds an x11-foreign app that shows how a toolkit can ask Cogl
to draw to an X Window that it owns instead of Cogl being responsible
for automatically creating and mapping an X Window for CoglOnscreen.
This allows more detailed control over the driver and winsys features
that Cogl should have. Cogl is designed so it can support multiple
window systems simultaneously so we have enable/disable options for
the drivers (gl vs gles1 vs gles2) and options for the individual window
systems; currently glx and egl. Egl is broken down into an option
for each platform.
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.
The "DRM_SURFACELESS" EGL platform was invented when we were adding the
wayland backend to Clutter but in the end we added a dedicated backend
instead of extending the EGL backend so actually the platform name isn't
used.
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.
