It is basically not used by default and is pretty much broken at this point, so
it's about time to drop it.
Let's focus on fixing the OLE2 DnD protocol.
Make _gdk_win32_display_get_monitor_scale_factor() less complex, by:
* Drop the preceding underscore.
* Dropping an unused parameter.
* Using a GdkSurface instead of a HWND, as the HWND that we pass into
this function might have been taken from a GdkSurface, which are now
always created with CS_OWNDC. This means if a GdkSurface was passed
in, we ensure that we only acquire the DC from the HWND once, and do
not attempt to call ReleaseDC() on it.
* Store the HDC that we acquire from the GdkSurface's HWND into the
surface, and use that as the HDC we need for our GdkGLContext.
* Drop the gl_hwnd from GdkWin32Display, as that is really should be
stored in the GdkSurface.
* For functions that were updated, name GdkWin32Display variables as
display_win32 and GdkSurface variables as surface, to unify things.
* Stop calling ReleaseDC() on the HDC that we use for OpenGL, since
they were acquired from HWND's created with CS_OWNDC.
Determine the root_x and root_y coordinates of the drag surface by
relying on the coordinates of the surface where the drag is being
carried out, plus the coordinates that we receive from the drag event,
which is in-line with what the X11 backend does.
This will prevent the drag surface from being initially drawn at the
correct position, but jumping towards the top-left corner of the screen
shortly afterwards.
The DnD support will still need some more updates to function correctly
on Windows, but at least this is a small improvement.
Fixes issue #3798.
In GTK4, we are now defaulting to the OpenGL renderer with the Cairo renderer
only used as a fallback, so there is no point keeping the code paths that use
layered windows as layered windows do not work well with OpenGL nor Vulkan.
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
