Instead, pass the source window to gdk_drag_begin().
Also make Wayland use this window instead of the one under the pointer
(though those 2 Windows are most likely the same anyway).
Without selections, drags can't have them either.
Also included is removing the selection from GtkSelectionData.
Includes a bunch of crude cleanups to Wayland code that no longer has to
care about selection atoms.
In the motion compression phase the coalesced events will be saved
as a GdkTimeCoord on the motion event that shall be delivered.
For simplicity (and because history doesn't make much sense otherwise)
event history is only recorded while there are buttons pressed, this
also tidily ensures that those coalesced events would have the same
target widget on the gtk side than the delivered one, because of
implicit grabs.
Two warts remain. gdk_event_copy() should be unnecessary as
events should be considered static after delivery, so g_object_ref()
should be just as good. There's a few exceptional cases that the event
is copied and then modifier for later processing, those cases should be
reconsidered individually.
And gdk_event_free() could be likewise turned into g_object_unref(),
many callers remain though.
Now all events structs are private, it doesn't make as much sense
having GdkEventPrivate wrapping allocating events. This is a first
step towards removing it.
It won't stand true anymore that the GdkEventType argument is the
first field of the GdkEvent* structs. All callers have been updated
to use event->any.type instead.
Instead of just passing the GdkContentFormats, we are now passing the
GdkContentProvider to gdk_drag_begin().
This means that GDK itself can now query the data from the provider
directly instead of having to send selection events.
Use this to provide the private API gdk_drag_context_write() that allows
backends to pass an output stream that this data will be written to.
Implement this as the mechanism for providing drag data on Wayland.
And to make this all work, implement a content provider named
GtkDragContent that is implemented by reverting to the old DND
drag-data-get machinery inside GTK, so for widgets everything works just
like before.
We now have a GdkX11Display::xevent signal that gets emitted for every
XEvent and allows you to interrupt processing via TRUE/FALSE return
values.
These return values to correspond to GDK_FILTER_REMOVE and
GDK_FILTER_CONTINUE respectively.
The GDK_FILTER_TRANSLATE case from gdk_window_add_filter() is now meant
to be handled via gdk_display_put_event().
This is in preparation for DND.
It moves a lot of code from gdkclipboard-x11.c to
gdkselectionoutputstream-x11.c to untangle it from GdkX11Clipboard
usage.
Instead, pass the actions as part of gdk_drag_begin() and insist DND is
always managed.
A new side effect is that gdk_drag_begin() can now return %NULL.
This fixes stuttering in animations that rely on the regularity of
gdk_frame_clock_get_frame_time.

gdkgears:
58 FPS and visibly stuttering

AFTER
gdkgears:
60 FPS and smoother
gnome-maps on a 59.95Hz monitor:
"paint" g_get_monotonic_time +18228μs, gdk_frame_clock_get_frame_time +16680μs
"paint" g_get_monotonic_time +15010μs, gdk_frame_clock_get_frame_time +16680μs
"paint" g_get_monotonic_time +17134μs, gdk_frame_clock_get_frame_time +16680μs
This is the replacement for selection usage.
Backend implementations for X11 (missing support for backwards compat
formats like COMPOUND_TEXT) and Wayland are included.
GTK code should be adapted to use gdk_drop_read_*() functions instead
of gtk_drag_get_data().
If we fail to connect to the session bus, it would be a bit silly to
immediately try and use that NULL connection.

In order to map a window with the correct initial parent-child
relationship when a modal dialog is set up to be a child of an imported
foreign window, the relationship must be set up before the window is
mapped.
In order to do this, if a window is not yet mapped, postpone the
relationship setup until when the window is eventually mapped.

Traditionally (and on most backends) there's a single master pointer driven
by all pointing devices. The notable exception is Wayland though, where
master pointing devices are created per capability in the case of
pointer/touch, and one for each drawing tablet.
This function call makes it easy to access all these.

We are using `path` unconditionally, but it can be conditionally filled.
To avoid inconsistent internal state, and a compiler warning, let's
assert that the variable is always set.
This API allows specifying a GType and va_args of a value of that type
to set the clipboard contents. This massively simplifies setting weird
object types into the clipboard.
2 example patches included in this patch are the GtkTextBuffer and the
file list in the file chooser.
Using gobject-introspection, this should work without specifying the
type, so that you can literlally say
clipboard.set ("Hello World")
or
clipboard.set (pixbuf)
which is why I've also marked all other setters as (skip). They just
exist in C as wrappers for type safety reasons.
This is in preparation of using input streams to show that these
coordinates aren't needed most of the time and can otherwise be saved
during GtkWidget::drag-drop.
I decided to put this in a custom subclass, because then I could keep
the whole gtk primary protocol self-contained.
The other option would have been reusing GdkWaylandClipboard, but that
didn't seem worth it, especially because that code needs to interact
with the DND machinery, while the primary doesn't.
When the reply to a TARGETS request comes in, the clipboard may already
be reclaimed by the local app. Deal with that case (in an ugly way,
strictly speaking we should use a cancellable here).
This happens for example at startup when the initial TARGETS requests
have not been answered until after the main widow popped up. And if such
a window immediately claims the primary clipboard (like when the initial
focus is inside an entry), this race will happen.
This object tracks the SelectionNotifyEvent that has to be sent in
response to a SelectionRequest.
Currently it just looks like code reshuffling, but it's a prerequisite
for handling MULTIPLE, which requires to only send the notify after
every stream has writtten at least once.
But anyway, code is cleaner now, so it's a win!
This is a GSList of GFile and we want it so we can operate with lists of
files and text/uri-list.
I chose GSList over GList because that's what the GtkFileChooser API
uses, too.
Also make clipboard_claim() a vfunc so backends can override it.
Because the whole operation a vfunc, backends have the option of adding
code before the actual claim is done and potentially even fail or do
something after the successful claim.
Instead of having just one function that has the gtype and mime type as
out arguments, have 3 functions: 1 that finds any match, 1 that finds a
GType match and one for a mime type match.
This makes the API way more convenient to use.
This requires implementing a "pipe" so we can have 2 streams running:
contentprovider => serializer => outputstream
inputstream => deserializer => reader
And the pipe shoves the data from the outputstream into the inputstream.
GdkContentProvider is the object that represents local data in the
clipboard.
This patch only introduces the object and adds the clipboard properties,
it does not yet provide a way for the actual implementations to access
it.
The only access that is implemented is the local shortcut GValue access.
(1) Try all passed in formats in order if one of them fails.
(2) Don't blindly accept all formats, make sure they are mime types
(3) Add a bunch of special non-mime types that plug converters to
get to mime types
