This is a bit of filechooser internals that gets shared with
nautilus, which is fine, but it shouldn't be part of our
public API. There are no other users than nautilus.
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.
Instead of allowing people to pass a uint user-data, insist on them
comparing mime types.
The user data was a uint instead of a pointer anyway, so uniqueness
could not be guaranteed and it caused more issues than it was worth.
And that's ignoring the fact that it basically wasn't used.
Change constructors to reflect that.
While doing so, also add a fallback argument to the cursor constructors,
so it is now possible to create cursors with fallback.
This patch makes that work using 1 of 2 options:
1. Add all missing enums to the switch statement
or
2. Cast the switch argument to a uint to avoid having to do that (mostly
for GdkEventType).
I even found a bug while doing that: clearing a GtkImage with a surface
did not notify thae surface property.
The reason for enabling this flag even though it is tedious at times is
that it is very useful when adding values to an enum, because it makes
GTK immediately warn about all the switch statements where this enum is
relevant.
And I expect changes to enums to be frequent during the GTK4 development
cycle.
Since setting a clip is mandatory for almost all widgets, we can as well
change the size-allocate signature to include a out_clip parameter, just
like GtkCssGadget did. And since we now always propagate baselines, we
might as well pass that one on to size-allocate.
This way we can also make sure to transform the clip returned from
size-allocate to parent-coordinates, i.e. the same coordinate space
priv->allocation is in.
Showing all the different errors and warnings when renaming and creating
files/folders without potentially resizing popovers on every keystroke
requires us to know the size of the error messages beforehand, so pack
all of the possible error messages and warnings in labels and those into
a stack. This way we can also neatly crossfade transition between them.
