This change is done for 2 reasons:
- The logic to request this phase when compressing scroll events is
slightly broken. If there are multiple scroll events that are
coalesced into one, the surface frame clock will not get this request.
The worst case is having >= 2 scroll events on every frame, as the
compressed event will be left in the queue, and be further compressed
on future events.
- Even scroll events aside, this phase is requested in oddly specific
places that are not enough to cover all events, others do rely on
unrelated GdkFrameClock activity that happens to flush the events
as well.
Unify this phase request so it explicitly happens on the arrival of any
event. This ensures that events (compressed or not) will be handled
promptly after arrival.
It makes sense to connect the begin/update/end events
for touchpad swipes and pinches in a sequence. This
commit adds the plumbing for it, but not backends
are setting sequences yet.
Remove a boatload of "or %NULL" from nullable parameters
and return values. gi-docgen generates suitable text from
the annotation that we don't need to duplicate.
This adds a few missing nullable annotations too.
GTK traditionally lets you activate keyboard shortcuts
even if they are for a non-active layout. But it is meant
to only activate with a keysym from a non-active layout
when that symbol is not present in the current layout.
That last condition was lost when key event handling
was redone for GTK4. Bring it back.
100% symbol docs coverage.
833 symbols documented.
0 symbols incomplete.
0 not documented.
What's left are just type system macros and windowing system opaque
structures.
This removes the GDK_CONFIGURE event and all related functions and data
types; it includes untested changes to the MacOSX, Win32 and Broadway
backends.
The use of volatile was incorrect in GLib and has been that way for
a long time. Recently however that has changed, and this makes GTK
follow suit to avoid using volatile in the type registration.

Combined with the above merge request for GLib, this fixes a large
number of compilation warnings when using Clang.
The current code was marking queued events as flushed,
but left them in the queue. That doesn't make sense to
me - we should deliver all events we have before we
reach the paint phase of the frame cycle.
No users of gdk_display_peek_event, gdk_display_has_pending
_gdk_display_event_data_copy or _gdk_display_event_data_free,
so drop all of these, and related vfuncs.
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.
Scroll events can have history too, so make a
getter that works for both. This drops the
gdk_scroll_event_get_history getter that was
added a few commits earlier, since we now
store scroll history in the same way as
motion history.
Update the docs, and all callers.
Only return one accumulated scroll event per frame.
Compress them by adding up the deltas.
Still missing: a way to capture history, like
we do for motion events.
Fixes: #2800
Scroll events do not have a position, so they shouldn't implement the
GdkEventClass.get_position() virtual function; nor they should have an x
and y fields that never get updated.
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.
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.
This removes the use of the context menu and shift group
intents in gdkevents.c. If it turns out to be important,
we need to introduce vfuncs for gdk_event_triggers_context_menu
and gdk_event_matches.
