GdkEvent has been a "I-can't-believe-this-is-not-OOP" type for ages,
using a union of sub-types. This has always been problematic when it
comes to implementing accessor functions: either you get generic API
that takes a GdkEvent and uses a massive switch() to determine which
event types have the data you're looking for; or you create namespaced
accessors, but break language bindings horribly, as boxed types cannot
have derived types.
The recent conversion of GskRenderNode (which had similar issues) to
GTypeInstance, and the fact that GdkEvent is now a completely opaque
type, provide us with the chance of moving GdkEvent to GTypeInstance,
and have sub-types for GdkEvent.
The change from boxed type to GTypeInstance is pretty small, all things
considered, but ends up cascading to a larger commit, as we still have
backends and code in GTK trying to access GdkEvent structures directly.
Additionally, the naming of the public getter functions requires
renaming all the data structures to conform to the namespace/type-name
pattern.
These fixes were done blindly, to make the ci pass,
and will need review by somebody with access to an
actual win32 system to make sure the surface subtypes
are implemented properly.
We want to use a gdk_surface_new_popup for popups,
and align the constructor names with the surface
types, so rename
gdk_surface_new_popup -> gdk_surface_new_temp
gdk_surface_new_popup_full -> gdk_surface_new_popup
The temp surface type will disappear eventually.
Change GdkDrag::action to GdkDrag::selected-action, which is
more clearly different from actions, and follows the existing
name of the struct field and getter.
This lets us drop the ::action-changed signal for the
property change notification. But, can just as well move
the signal class handers which just update the cursor
to the ::action setter. No need to do this in the backends.
* There's no GdkDragContext->dest_surface anymore.
Add dest_window field to GdkWin32DragContext,
and use that instead.
* Remove unused function prototypes
* Add more comments
* Rename variables and fields from 'window' to 'surface'
where appropriate
* Fix header indentation a bit
* Try to ensure that uninitialized/unknown handle variables
and fields are set to INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE instead of NULL,
as there may be cases where NULL is a valid handle value.
* Remove clipdrop->dnd_target_state, it's not used anymore
* Remove non-functioning _gdk_dropfiles_store(), store dropfiles
list in GdkWin32Drop instead
* Fix multiple comment typos
* Fix _gdk_win32_get_clipboard_format_name_as_interned_mimetype() to
leave names that look like mime/types alone
* Refactor _gdk_win32_add_w32format_to_pairs() to populate
GdkContentFormatsBuilder directly, instead of making a GList
* Rename context -> drag (still using GdkDragContext type,
but [almost?] all variables and comments say "drag" now)
* Rename GdkDropContext -> GdkDrop
* Rename some parameter names for clarity
* Rewrite local protocol to look more like OLE2 protocol
instead of mirroring the structure of the X11 API.
* Add handle_events field to GdkWin32DragContext,
to shut off event handling (temporary fix until GTK is patched up)
* Remove _gdk_win32_drag_context_find() - the drag object is stored
in GdkDrop instead. Use _gdk_win32_find_drag_for_dest_surface()
to get it initially.
* Remove target_ctx_for_window, droptarget context is stored
in the surface instead.
* Call gdk_drag_context_set_cursor() just like wayland backend does
(slightly broken for now)
* Clean up the action choosing code (filter source actions by using
keyboard state, pass that to GTK, get all actions supported by GTK in
response, match them up with filtered source actions, return the
result, falling back to COPY in case of multiple actions)
* Check drag_win32->protocol instead of the use_ole2_dnd variable where
possible
* Remove protocol checks from functions that are only used by the local
protocol
* Use event state to manufacture the keyboard state for WM_MOUSEMOVE
* Change function names printed by GDK_NOTE to name the actual
functions, not their theoretical generic GDK stack ancestors
* Consistently use drag_win32 and drop_win32 variables instead of a mix
of that and win32_drag/win32_drop
* Return FALSE from button handler to ensure that GTK gets the button
event to break implicit grab
* Emit leave event on failed idroptarget_drop() calls
* Remove DC refcounting (we trust GDK to always do
begin_frame/end_frame calls in pairs)
* Now that there's no GDK-provided double-buffer up the stack,
double-buffering is implemented here
(though it's disabled by default - in my tests it didn't provide
any visual improvements, but did decrease performance).
* For some reason delaying window resizes until the point where
we need to blit the double-buffer into the window leads
to visual glitches, so doulbe-buffered windows are resized
in begin_frame, same as non-double-buffered ones.
* New code to clear the paint region, for all drawing modes.
Hopefully, it isn't duplicated anywhere up the stack.
* GL has its own context now, so remove any GL-related comments.
* Layered windows are still used (because cairo actually works
better with them)
* A bit more code re-use for layered windows
* Some functions that were local to gdksurface-win32.c are made
usable for the whole backend
* Drag-indicator drawing is temporarily commented out to match
a similar change in X11 backend
Rename GdkWin32Selection to GdkWin32Clipdrop, since GdkSelection
is mostly gone, and the word "selection" does not reflect the
functionality of this object too well.
Clipboard is now handled by a separate thread, most of the code for
it now lives in gdkclipdrop-win32.c, gdkclipboard-win32.c just uses
clipdrop as a backend.
The DnD source part is also put into a thread.
The DnD target part does not spin the main loop, it just
emits a GDK event and returns a default value if it doesn't get a reply
by the time the event is processed.
Both clipboard and DnD use a new GOutputStream subclass to get data
from GTK and put it into a HGLOBAL.
GdkWin32DragContext is split into GdkWin32DragContext and GdkWin32DropContext,
anticipating a similar change that slated to happen to GdkDragContext.
OLE2 DnD protocol is now used by default, set GDK_WIN32_OLE2_DND envvar to 0
to make GDK use the old LOCAL and DROPFILES protocols.
