The way gdk_drag_status() may be called multiple times during the
processing of drag and drop events throughout the widget hierarchy
brings some superfluous messaging going in, esp. when it's the last
request the one we want to honor, yet we emit messaging requests on
all.
This is barely appreciable in the X11 backend, but due to the design
of the wayland protocol, quick series of changes like this it have
some self-amplificating consequences which may end up flooding the
connection.
We can delegate this to a late "commit" call, performed within GDK
event management. This way gdk_drag_status() calls may be cached
and only result in windowing messaging once per ::drag-motion or
::drag-data-received event. Emitting the final status will also
avoid spurious action changes on the compositor and the other peer.

That way we can let ::cancel callers to override the visual
result of the operation (eg. when detaching notebook tabs on
NO_TARGET).
Also, document gdk_drag_drop_done() so it is mentioned that
this is a one-shot call.

We should conform to a minimal set of reasons for the gtk side to emit
a better GtkDragResult than GTK_DRAG_RESULT_ERROR. This fixes the notebook
tab DnD feature, where we rely on GTK_DRAG_RESULT_NO_TARGET.
In the wayland side, unfortunately we can't honor either NO_TARGET nor
USER_CANCELLED, we don't know of the latter, so we could return false
positives on the former.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=761954
This was a thinko - what we sometimes do for signal names is to
use I_() to intern them (to avoid a strdup), but I_() is not
currently available in gdk, so lets just skip this
microoptimization for now.
These functions will be automatically called by the windowing backend.
The usual hooks to run this from in gtk/ shouldn't even happen, but
it is worth to document which calls are expected and which aren't.
This function (most similar to gtk_drag_get_cursor() helps figure out
the right cursor that applies to a given action. To be used by the
various backends.
We've traditionally left GTK+ to handle the input side of things,
letting GDK only manage the windowing-specific messaging. This
way of splitting responsibilities is not compatible however with
some backends, we must fold then input management at the DnD stage
into GDK (and backends) domain.
The gdk_drag_context_manage_dnd() call is meant to be the entry
point for this mode of operation, if the drag and drop operation
becomes managed, the caller (i.e. gtkdnd.c) doesn't need to perform
grabs, nor manage input events itself.
As a consequence of this, different aspects now belong to the
backend GdkDragContext implementation:
- Because the caller doesn't see keyboard events anymore,
keyboard navigation must be managed in GDK, so is the decision
of the current action based on modifiers/button pressed.
- Because the caller won't see input events in general, the lifetime
of the drag and drop operation is now communicated through the
::drop-performed, ::dnd-finished and ::cancel events
- Because the caller doesn't participate anymore on the action
being chosen, the pointer cursor must be set by the backend.
The caller is rather notified of the final action through the
::action signal.
The caller is still responsible of dealing with the corresponding
GdkSelection, ensuring its ownership and communicating the supported
mimetypes.
This commit hides GdkDragContext and GdkDragContextClass, adds
vfuncs for most drag context functionality, and turns the X11 DND
implementation into GdkDragContextX11. We also add vfuncs to
GdkDisplay for gdk_drag_get_protocol and to GdkWindow for
gdk_drag_begin, and implemenet them for X11.
Other backends need similar treatment and are broken now.
The Gdk-custom.c file in gir-repository contained a number of
introspection annotations. Merge those into the GDK source files.
Some documentation was moved from the tmpl/ files to accomodate
the addition of annotations.

Bug 544684 - Win64 issue, window handles are assumed to be 32-bit
* gdk/gdkdnd.h
* gdk/gdkdnd.c
* gdk/win32/gdkdnd-win32.c
* gdk/x11/gdkdnd-x11.c: Change return value and type of window id
from guint32 to GdkNativeWindow for
gdk_drag_get_protocol_for_display() and
gdk_drag_get_protocol(). This is not an API break on existing
platforms, as GdkNativeWindow has been guint32 for them
already.

* Practically everything changed.
Change all references of GIMP Toolkit (and variations of it)
to GTK+ Toolkit, showing no mercy at all to our beloved
ancestry. (#540529)

Make PLT-reduction work with gcc4, and don't include
everything in gdkalias.h:
* gdk/gdk.symbols: Group symbols by header and source file.
* gdk/makegdkalias.pl: Protect definitions by the same
preprocessor symbols used to guard the headers. Move
the alias declarations to a separate file which is
produced when calling makegdkalias.pl -def
* gdk/Makefile.am (gdkaliasdef.c): Add a rule to generate this
file.
* gdk/*.c, gdk/x11/*.c: Include gdkalias.h after the other
headers, include gdkaliasdef.c at the bottom.

Add hidden aliases for exported symbols which are
used internally in order to get rid of many PLT
entries. (#145519, Arjan van de Ven)
* gdk/Makefile.am: Add rules to generate gdk.def and
gdkalias.h from gdk.symbols, and make make check check
the abi with abicheck.sh.
* gdk/gdk.symbols: New file. Definition of the GDK ABI.
The file can be processed by cpp to filter out certain
subsets of symbols.
* gdk/abicheck.sh: New file. Script to check the actually
symbols exported from libgdk-x11.2.0.so against the symbols
found in gdk.symbols.
* gdk/makegdkalias.pl: New file. Perl script to generate the
header containing the alias definitions for internally used
exported symbols from a list of symbols.
* gdk/*.c, gdk/x11/*.c: Include gdkalias.h

Move all X specific code into the x11/ directory.
Aside from shuffling things around, did the following:
* gdk/gdkprivate.h gdk/gdk.h gdk/x11/gdkmain-x11.h: Add
gdk_arg_context_* - a simple argument parsing system
in the style of popt.
* gdk/gdkdrawable.[ch] gdk/gdkprivate.h gdk/gdkwindow.[ch]
gdk/x11/gdkprivate-x11.h:
Remove X specific stuff from GdkDrawable and GdkWindowPrivate -
add ->klass and ->klass_data fields. The klass_data
field points to an auxilliary structure that is
windowing system dependent.
* gdk/gdkfont.c: Make most of the measurement functions
simply wrappers around gdk_text_extents().
* gdk/gdkfont.c gdk/gdkprivate.h gdk/x11/gdkfont-x11.c: Add a
_gdk_font_strlen() function that hides the weird
behavior in gtk+-1.[02] where a string is interpreted
differently for 8-bit and 16-bit fonts.
* gdk/gdkevents.c: Add a new function gdk_event_button_generate()
to store common code for synthesizing double/triple
press events.
* gdk/gdkgc.[ch]: Virtualize in the same way as gdkdrawable.h.
Make all the function that modify an existing GC
simply wrappers around gdk_gc_set_values().
* gdk/gdkcc.[ch]: Moved into x11/ directory in preparation
for throwing out later.
* gdk/gdkfont.c gdk/gdkimage.c gdk/gdkcolor.c: Change GdkFontPrivate,
GdkImagePrivate and GdkColormapPrivate to have a
windowing system dependent part (GdkFontPrivateX etc.)
that "derives" from the system-independent part.
* configure.in gdk/x11/Makefile.in gdk/x11/gdkinput*.c:
Got rid of the included-source-files for XInput in
favor of automake conditionals. (Which didn't exist
when XInput support was originally added.)
* gdk/gdkrgb.c: Remove the visual id from the debugging
statements since that is X11 specific; print out
type/depth info instead.
Sun Oct 3 18:13:44 1999 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
* gtk/gtkwidget.c (gtk_reset_shapes_recurse):
Fix a reference to window_private->destroyed.
* gtk/gtkplug.c (gtk_plug_realize): Fix up a direct
(ugly) setting of an internal GdkWindow member to use
a _slightly_ cleaner macro.
* gdk/gdkprivate.h: Split GdkWindowPrivate into
GdkDrawablePrivate and GdkWindowPrivate.
Add extra macros for accessing GDK_DRAWABLE_ components.
* *.[ch]: Massive adjustments for the above, use the
new macros in a lot of places.
Fri Oct 1 18:03:36 1999 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
* docs/Changes-1.4.txt: Started
* gtk/Makefile.am (gdk_headers): Include all the new headers.
* gdk/*.h gdk/*.c: Split gdk.h into lots of itty-bitty little pieces.
* gdk/gdkprivate.h gdk/gdkcc.c: Moved GdkColorContext private
into C file.
* gdkinput.h gdkinputprivate.h - renamed the internal gdkinput
header to gdkinputprivate.h.
* gdk/gdk.h gdk/gdk.c: Removed gdk_time* functions which have been
unused since before 1.2.
