To build a better world sometimes means having to tear the old one down.
-- Alexander Pierce, "Captain America: The Winter Soldier"
ATK served us well for nearly 20 years, but the world has changed, and
GTK has changed with it. Now ATK is mostly a hindrance towards improving
the accessibility stack:
- it maps to a very specific implementation, AT-SPI, which is Linux and
Unix specific
- it requires implementing the same functionality in three different
layers of the stack: AT-SPI, ATK, and GTK
- only GTK uses it; every other Linux and Unix toolkit and application
talks to AT-SPI directly, including assistive technologies
Sadly, we cannot incrementally port GTK to a new accessibility stack;
since ATK insulates us entirely from the underlying implementation, we
cannot replace it piecemeal. Instead, we're going to remove everything
and then incrementally build on a clean slate:
- add an "accessible" interface, implemented by GTK objects directly,
which describe the accessible role and state changes for every UI
element
- add an "assistive technology context" to proxy a native accessibility
API, and assign it to every widget
- implement the AT context depending on the platform

After the :can-focus change in the previous commit, widgets
need to set suitable focus and grab_focus implementations
to implement the desired focus behavior.
This commit does that for all widgets.
This is an automated change doing these command:
git sed -f g gtk_widget_set_has_window gtk_widget_set_has_surface
git sed -f g gtk_widget_get_has_window gtk_widget_get_has_surface
git sed -f g gtk_widget_set_parent_window gtk_widget_set_parent_surface
git sed -f g gtk_widget_get_parent_window gtk_widget_get_parent_surface
git sed -f g gtk_widget_set_window gtk_widget_set_surface
git sed -f g gtk_widget_get_window gtk_widget_get_surface
git sed -f g gtk_widget_register_window gtk_widget_register_surface
git sed -f g gtk_widget_unregister_window gtk_widget_unregister_surface
git checkout NEWS*
Remove all the old 2.x and 3.x version annotations.
GTK+ 4 is a new start, and from the perspective of a
GTK+ 4 developer all these APIs have been around since
the beginning.
Since gtk+ draws more than the widget and allocates more size to it than
it knows about, this flag doesn't work anymore. Removing it (or setting
it to TRUE for widgets that used to set it to FALSE) fixes drawing
invalidation when these widgets get allocated a new size.
gtk_statusbar_remove_all() was popping the top message if its
context_id matched before removing other matching messages from the
stack. This meant that if the context_id of the second top message
matched it was still displayed when the top message was popped and
then removed from the list of messages without updating the display.
Fix this by removing all the matching messages below the top one
before popping it if it matches.

Resize grips were introduced for GNOME 3.0, before we had any of the
"new GNOME app" features like invisible borders and CSD. With OS X 10.6
and 10.7, Apple has replaced the classic grips in their applications
with invisible borders as well.
New GNOME app designs don't use resize grips anymore and the new
default theme for GTK+, Adwaita, disables them entirely by forcing their
width and height to 0.
They're past their time. Remove the code to support them. This can
always be reverted if some app relies on them.
We rename the gtk_widget_class_bind_template_child{_internal}
macros by appending a _private to their name. Otherwise, it
would be too magic to pass the 'public' names as arguments,
but affect a member of the Private struct. At the same time,
Add two new macros with the old names,
gtk_widget_class_bind_template_child{_internal} that operate
on members of the instance struct.
The macros and functions are inconsistently named, and are not tied to
the "template" concept - to the point that it seems plausible to use
them without setting the template.
The new naming scheme is as follows:
gtk_widget_class_bind_template_child_full
gtk_widget_class_bind_template_callback_full
With the convenience macros:
gtk_widget_class_bind_template_child
gtk_widget_class_bind_template_child_internal
gtk_widget_class_bind_template_callback

Using an offset from the struct means you can have children in
both the public and private (via G_PRIVATE_OFFSET) parts of the
instance. It also matches the new private macros nicer.
