That way, it doesn't need a specific init function.
Also chain up last, so that the generic initialization code in
GdkSurface::constructed can access a fully initialized macos surface.
This significantly cleans up how we handle various move-resize, compute-
size, and configure (notification of changes) in the macOS GDK backend.
Originally when prototyping this backend, there were some bits that came
over from the quartz backend and some bits which did not. It got confusing
and so this makes an attempt to knock down all that technical debt.
It is much simpler now in that the GdkMacosSurface makes requests of the
GdkMacosWindow, and the GdkMacosWindow notifies the GdkMacosSurface of
changes that happen.
User resizes are delayed until the next compute-size so that we are much
closer to the layout phase, reducing chances for in-between frames.
This also improves the situation of leaving maximized state so that a
grab and drag feels like you'd expect on other platforms.
I removed the opacity hack we had in before, because that is all coming
out anyway and it's a bit obnoxious to maintain through the async flows
here.
This is fairly substantial rewrite of the GDK backend for quartz and
renamed to macOS to allow for a greenfield implementation.
Many things have come across from the quartz implementation fairly
intact such as the eventloop integration design and discovery of
event windows from the NSEvent.
However much has been changed to fit in with the new GDK design and
how removal of child GdkWindow have been completely eliminated.
Furthermore, the new GdkPopup allows for regular NSWindow to be used
to provide popovers unlike the previous implementation.
The object design more closely follows the ideal for a GDK backend.
Views have been broken out into subclasses so that we can support
multiple GSK renderer paths such as GL and Cairo (and Metal in the
future). However mixed mode GL and Cairo will not be supported. Currently
only the Cairo renderer has been implemented.
A new frame clock implementation using CVDisplayLink provides more
accurate information about when to draw drawing the next frame. Some
testing will need to be done here to understand the power implications
of this.
This implementation has also gained edge snapping for CSD windows. Some
work was also done to ensure that CSD windows have opaque regions
registered with the display server.
** This is still very much a work-in-progress **
Some outstanding work that needs to be done:
- Finish a GL context for macOS and alternate NSView for GL rendering
(possibly using speciailized CALayer for OpenGL).
- Input rework to ensure that we don't loose remapping of keys that was
dropped from GDK during GTK 4 development.
- Make sure input methods continue to work.
- Drag-n-Drop is still very much a work in progress
- High resolution input scrolling needs various work in GDK to land
first before we can plumb that to NSEvent.
- gtk/ has a number of things based on GDK_WINDOWING_QUARTZ that need
to be updated to use the macOS backend.
But this is good enough to start playing with and breaking things which
is what I'd like to see.
