This allows us to use DPI_AWARENESS_CONTEXT_PER_MONITOR_AWARE_V2 for the
DPI awareness mode, which will help us to better support use cases with
multiple monitors. This is actualy a more advaned version of the
current PROCESS_PER_MONITOR_DPI_AWARE via using SetProcessDpiAwareness().
Note that this is not enabled by default, but also enabled via using
GDK_WIN32_PER_MONITOR_HIDPI, as in the PROCESS_PER_MONITOR_DPI_AWARE
case.
Note also, that appliation compatibility settings and DPI-awareness
manifests takes precedence over this API call, as before.
Like the other backends, we ought to create our WGL/EGL GL contexts like
the following:
"Create a global GL context that connects all GL contexts on a display
and lets us share textures between them."
If GLES support is enabled on Windows, force GLES mode if we are running
on a ARM64 version of Windows (i.e. Windows 10 for ARM).
This is required as ARM64 versions of Windows only provide a software
implementation of OpenGL 1.1/1.2, which is not enough for our purposes.
Thus, we could make instead use the GLES support provided via Google's
libANGLE (which emulates OpenGL/ES 3 with Direct3D 9/11), so that we
can run GtkGLArea programs under OpenGL/ES in ARM64 versions of Windows.
Note that eventually we could update the libepoxy build files for Windows
to not check nor enable WGL when building for ARM64 Windows, as the WGL
items do not work, although they do build.
We need to use GL_BGRA instead of GL_RGBA when doing glReadPixels() on
EGL on Windows (ANGLE) so that the red and blue bits won't be displayed
inverted.
Also fix the logic where we determine whether to bit blit or redraw
everything.
This is for adding a EGL-based renderer which is done via the ANGLE
project, which translate EGL calls to Direct3D 9/11. This is done as a
possible solution to issue #105, especially for cases where the needed
full GL extensions to map OpenGL to Direct3D is unavailable or
unreliable, or when the OpenGL implementation from the graphics drivers
are problematic.
To enable this, do the following:
-Build ANGLE and ensure the ANGLE libEGL.dll and libGLESv2.dll are
available. A sufficiently-recent ANGLE is needed for things to
work correctly--note that the copy of ANGLE that is included in
qtbase-5.10.1 is sufficient. ANGLE is licensed under a BSD 3-clause
license.
-Build libepoxy on Windows with EGL support enabled.
-Currently, prior to running GTK+ programs, the GDK_DEBUG envvar needs
to be set with gl-gles as at least one of the flags.
Known issues:
-Only OpenGL ES 3 is supported, ANGLE's ES 2 does not support the needed
extensions, notably GL_OES_vertex_array_object, but its ES 3 support is
sufficient.
-There is no autodetection or fallback mechanism to enable using
EGL/Angle automatically yet. There are no plans to do this in this
commit.
...EGL support needs to be explicitly enabled during the build of
libepoxy on Windows as it is not enabled by default on Windows.
With this, we can add an EGL renderer for Windows that make use of
Google's libANGLE, which is a library that translates OpenGL/ES calls
to Direct3D 9/11, which will provide better hardware compatibility
on Windows and would act as one of the foundations to resolve issue #105.
It's not a portable API, so remove it. The corresponding backend
specific functions are still available, if they were implemented, e.g.
gdk_macos_monitor_get_workarea() and gdk_x11_monitor_get_workarea().
Make GdkEvents hold a single GdkDevice. This device is closer to
the logical device conceptually, although it must be sufficient for
device checks (i.e. GdkInputSource), which makes it similar to the
physical devices.
Make the logical devices have a more accurate GdkInputSource where
needed, and conflate the event devices altogether.
Use better matching format modifiers/specifiers, initialise some things
which in theory wont be written to because of getters using g_return_if_fail(),
a cast, and gsize as input for malloc because gsize!=glong on 64bit Windows.
We require a C compiler supporting C99 now. The main purpose of
these fallbacks was for MSVC. From what I can see this is now all supported
by MSVC 2015+ anyway.
The only other change this includes is to replace isnanf() with the
(type infering) C99 isnan() macro, because MSVC doesn't provide isnanf().
This is not used anymore now that surfaces are always toplevel in the
semantics of GdkWindow where child windows were available. We can drop
that and simplify the vfunc just a bit more.
Fixes#2765
We currently calling gdk_display_map_keyval up to
once per key event per shortcut trigger, and that function
does an expensive loop over the entire keymap and
allocates an array. Avoid this by caching the entries
in a single array, and have a lookup table for finding
the entries for a keyval.
To do this, change the GdkKeymap.get_entries_for_keyval
signature, and change the ::keys-changed signal to be
RUN_FIRST, since we want to clear the cache in the class
handler before running signal handlers. These changes are
possible now, since keymaps are no longer public API.
The api to configure surfaces is now GdkToplevelLayout
and GdkPopupLayout. Unfortunately, there's still quite
a bit of internal use of GdkGeometry that will take some
time to clean up, so move it go gdkinternals.h for now.
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.
