This is not really needed. The gl context is totally tied to the
window it is created from by virtue of sharing the context with the
paint context of that window and that context always has the visual
of the window (which we already can get).
Also, all user visible contexts are essentially offscreen contexts, so
a visual doesn't make sense for them. They only use FBOs which have
whatever format that the users sets up.
This adds the new type GdkGLContext that wraps an OpenGL context for a
particular native window. It also adds support for the gdk paint
machinery to use OpenGL to draw everything. As soon as anyone creates
a GL context for a native window we create a "paint context" for that
GdkWindow and switch to using GL for painting it.
This commit contains only an implementation for X11 (using GLX).
The way painting works is that all client gl contexts draw into
offscreen buffers rather than directly to the back buffer, and the
way something gets onto the window is by using gdk_cairo_draw_from_gl()
to draw part of that buffer onto the draw cairo context.
As a fallback (if we're doing redirected drawing or some effect like a
cairo_push_group()) we read back the gl buffer into memory and composite
using cairo. This means that GL rendering works in all cases, including
rendering to a PDF. However, this is not particularly fast.
In the *typical* case, where we're drawing directly to the window in
the regular paint loop we hit the fast path. The fast path uses opengl
to draw the buffer to the window back buffer, either by blitting or
texturing. Then we track the region that was drawn, and when the draw
ends we paint the normal cairo surface to the window (using
texture-from-pixmap in the X11 case, or texture from cairo image
otherwise) in the regions where there is no gl painted.
There are some complexities wrt layering of gl and cairo areas though:
* We track via gdk_window_mark_paint_from_clip() whenever gtk is
painting over a region we previously rendered with opengl
(flushed_region). This area (needs_blend_region) is blended
rather than copied at the end of the frame.
* If we're drawing a gl texture with alpha we first copy the current
cairo_surface inside the target region to the back buffer before
we blend over it.
These two operations allow us full stacking of transparent gl and cairo
regions.
This is a new function that gets called every time we're drawing
some area in the Gtk paint machinery. It is a no-op right now, but
it will be required later to keep track of what areas which
we previously rendered with GL was overwritten with cairo contents.
Add gdk_device_get_last_event_window(), and use to implement the window
tracking we need for synthesizing crossing events for sensitivity changes
and gtk grabs, rather than keeping the information in qdata and updating
it based when GTK+ gets events.

And deprecate the X11-specific version of it.
We call this new API _set_shadow_width() and not _set_frame_extents()
because we already have a gdk_window_get_frame_extents() with a
different meaning and different type of value.

Setting event compression to false will allow inter-frame
mouse motion events to be delivered, which are necessary
for painting applications to produce smooth strokes.

GtkPlug directly handles X KeyPress/Release events, instead of using
translation in GDK (which expects XI2 events for XI2). When this
was done, the handling of the group was stubbed out and never replaced.
Export gdk_keymap_x11_group_for_state() and gdk_keymap_x11_is_modifier()
so we can fill out the fields correctly.

This commit introduces GDK_TOUCH_BEGIN/UPDATE/END/CANCEL
and a separate GdkEventTouch struct that they use. This
is closer to the touch event API of other platforms and
matches the xi2 events closely, too.
The function returns the part of a monitors area that should be
used for positioning popups, menus, etc. The only non-trivial
implementation atm is in the X backend, all the other backends
just return the full monitor area. The X implementation is
currently suboptimal, since it requires roundtrips to collect
the necessary information. It should be changed to monitor
the properties for changes, when XFixes allows to monitor
individual properties.

For maximized windows, titlebars cannot be used to reposition or
scale the window, so if an application does not use it to convey
useful information (other than the application name), the screen
space occupied by titlebars could be put to better use.
Add a new window property which requests from the window manager
to hide titlebars when windows are maximized to account for this.

This function can be used to find the GdkDevice wrapping
an XInput2 device ID. For core devices, the Virtual Core
Pointer/Keyboard IDs (2/3) may be used.
This function can be used to find out the XInput2 device ID
behind a GdkDevice, mostly useful when you need to interact
with say Clutter, or raw libXi calls.
The metacity theme format allows to use colors from the current
GTK+ theme in window decorations. Since GTK+ now gained support
for dark theme variants, window managers using that theme format
(metacity, mutter, compiz via gtk-window-decorator) should be able
to use colors from the correct variant; so in case a variant is
requested, export it in the _GTK_THEME_VARIANT property on
toplevel windows.

At the same time, change the library sonames for -3.0 to just -3.
This is necessary since the 2.99 releases installed libraries like
libgtk-3.0.so.0.9903.0, and we want to prevent the library version
number from jumping back. So 3.0 will have libgtk-3.so.0.0.0.
The previous function gdk_drag_get_protocol_for_display() took native
window handles, so it had to be changed. Because it didn't do what it
was named to do (it didn't return a protocol even though it was named
get_protocol) and because it doesn't operate on the display anymore but
on the actual window, it's now called gdk_window_get_drag_protocol().
... and all APIs making use of it.
That code like it hasn't been touched in years, Google codesearch
didn't find any users and most importantly it's a horrendous API, so
let's just make it die instead of having to port it over to
non-GdkNativeWindow usage, which would be required for multi-backend
GDK.

When commenting out a binary, also comment out the related variables.
Don't include Makefile.decl in gtk-doc Makefile.am's as they disagree
on assigning to EXTRA_DIST.
There's no usecase for them, so remove them before we have to commit to
keeping an API.
Make the hooks private for now, actually removing them will come in
followup patches.
Its usecase was GERD - http://testbit.eu/~timj/historic/gerd/ - and that
project is long since dead.
I couldn't find any app using it after asking around and googling either.

It has been superseded in GTK 2.2 by GdkDisplayPointerHooks anyway.
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.
This commit does a number of things:
- remove some dead wchar configury from configure.ac and gdkconfig.h
- repurpose gdkconfig.h as header that contains GDK_WINDOWING_foo
macros for each included backend, include it in gdk.h and install
it in $includedir instead of below $libdir
- drop the backend from the library names
- build libgdk-3.0.la as a convenience lib and include it in libgtk-3.0.la
It does not yet enable building multiple backends at the same time.
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.
This function will enable events for all devices of a given
GdkInputSource, either these available at the time of the call,
or these that are connected in the future.
You should not ever ever ever call cairo_reset_clip(). If you do, your
code is broken and you deserve everything you get.
And we should definitely not support this insanity.
This new function takes a GdkRGBA in order to set the background to
an alpha color. Keep in mind that RGBA visuals and a composited environment
are still necessary to have an alpha background displayed.
GdkRGBA is a boxed struct similar to GdkColor, with the difference
that it stores alpha information as well, and colors are stored in
[0..1] doubles, in the cairo spirit.
gdk_cairo_set_source_rgba() has been also added to allow easier handling
of this new type.
