The X11 backend exports a number of symbols which are _-prefixed
(so don't become part of the gdk api), but are not named in a
way to prevent accidental clashes between backends.
The one API change here is that the gdk_xid_table functions
have been removed - they did not server an purpose, since the
xid table only stores windows anyway, and we already have a
lookup-by-xid function for windows.
These functions were trivial g_spawn wrappers in all backends
except for X11, and they can be easily replaced by
g_app_info_create_for_commandline + GdkAppLaunchContext.
Commandline arguments should go away altogether, but this one
goes first, since we then don't need to worry about
_gdk_windowing_substitute_screen_number anymore.
This commit hides the GdkDisplayManager instance and class structs,
adds vfuncs for listing displays, opening displays, and getting and
setting the default display. The X11 backend has a derived
GdkDisplayManagerX11.
The gdk_display_manager_get() function is responsible for deciding on
which of the compiled in backends to use. Currently, it consults the
GDK_BACKEND environment variable and falls back to x11.
Use the grab and ungrab vfuncs from the frontend instead of the
_gdk_windowing wrappers, and move some things around accordingly.
Again, only the X11 backend has been updated, other backends
need to be updated to match.
It turned out no vfuncs were necessary. I've decided to move
the screen member up to GdkVisual, since it is the same in all
backends. The X11 backend subclasses now, to add the X members
that it needs to keep track of. GdkVisual and GdkVisualClass
are hidden now.
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.
Add a GdkDisplay::get_app_launch_context vfunc, and a
gdk_display_get_app_launch_context that for X11 returns a subclass.
For win32 and quartz, the implementations were trivial, so we
just return a new GdkAppLaunchContext without subclassing. Since
the type of the context now depends on the display,
gdk_app_launch_context_set_display is deprecated.
Running gnome-shell under valgrind, I saw the attached invalid write.
Basically we can destroy a window during event processing, and the old
window_remove_filters simply called g_free() on the filter, ignoring
the refcount. Then later in event processing we call filter->refcount--,
which is writing to free()d memory.
Fix this by centralizing list mutation and refcount handling inside
a new shared _gdk_window_filter_unref() function, and using that
everywhere.

The old functions to get core pointer and devices list are gone as
well. This slice is entirely replaced internally by multidevice
handling and may just go.
The xi2 device manager now handles slaves being detached and/or
attached to a master.
gdk_device_list_slaves() has been added so it is possible to
know how slaves relate with masters. The other backends (X11 and not)
don't neeed to to anything special here since their hierarchy is
fully flat.
When the slave device changes, the master takes the shape of the
new one, modifying its axes, this signal is more useful to catch
this situation than the n-axes property
This function may be used to know the hardware device that triggered
an event, it could resort to the master device in the few cases there's
not a direct hardware device to relate to the event (i.e.: crossing events
due to grabs)
gdk_enable_multidevice() has been replaced with gdk_disable_multidevice(),
so applications may call that function if they want to go back at the
previous behavior.
There would be usually little reasons to call that function, unless the
application is doing X calls itself that count on old fashioned core
devices.
Scanner doesn't detect this case correctly because it's a typedef;
work around it here by explicitly specifying that it's caller
allocates. See bug 636393 for the scanner issue.
