We finish the write to the output stream long after the stream has been
closed, so we want to keep the event handler around to do just that.
Instead, remove the handler on finalize.
The OutputStream needs to write a 0 byte end of stream Property. We need
to track if that has been written, and we do that with that new
property.
We also use that property to always request flushes when the stream is
being closed, so that we don't wait for another flush() call.
We need to be very careful when writing data, because if we aren't, sync
functions will be called on the output stream and X11 does not like that
at all.
Instead of using GL_BACK, use GL_BACK_LEFT, because the spec demands
this (many drivers don't).
Also move the call from the GDK backends into the GLContext code, as
this is a generic EGL issue (nvidia being the main driver in need of
this call, see 9c4c4eaaa1 for a longer
discussion).
Fixes#4402
Add gdk_gl_context_is_api_allowed() for backends and make them use it.
Finally, have them return the final API as the return value (or 0 on
error).
And then use that api instead of a use_es boolean flag.
Fixes#4221
The term "hdr" is so overloaded, we shouldn't use them anywhere, except
from maybe describing all of this work in blog posts and other marketing
materials.
So do renames:
* hdr => high_depth
* request_hdr => prefers_high_depth
This more accurately describes what is going on.
Unify the X11 and Wayland EGL contexts.
This is a bit ugly to implement, because I don't want to create an
interface and I can't make them inherit from the same object, because
one needs to inherit from X11GLContext and the other from
WaylandGLContext.
So we have to put the code in GdkGLContext and make sure non-EGL
contexts can't accidentally run it. This is rather easy because we can
just check for priv->egl_context != NULL.
We have a global GdkGLBackendType now, just set it.
This way, using the variable forces the backend type, and we don't need
special code handling the env vars in the backends.
It also means setting the env var will now "work" on GDK backends that
don't even support that GL backend and simualte another GDK backend
having registered that GL backend already. So you can run
GDK_DEBUG=gl-wgl gtk4-demo
on test what Wayland will do when WGL is in use.
Print the extensions one per line, and sort them
alphabetically, so it is actually possible to find
something in the list.
Also print a short description of the chosen config.
Creative people managed to create an X11 display and a Wayland display
at once, thereby getting EGL and GLX involved in a fight to the death
over the ownership of the glFoo() symbolspace.
A way to force such a fight with available tools here is (on Wayland)
running something like:
GTK_INSPECTOR_DISPLAY=:1 GTK_DEBUG=interactive gtk4-demo

It seems these are sent with `xwindow` set to the root window, so this
was failing to find a surface and get the screen from that.
I'm not sure if there's a reason not to get the screen this way
elsewhere in the function, but it seems this should be correct.
This fixes the behavior of `gdk_x11_display_get_monitors()`, which
wasn't correctly changing when monitors were added or removed. For
instance, this python code was always showing the same number of
monitors when one was turned off and on, but updates correctly with this
change applied:
```python
import gi
gi.require_version("GLib", "2.0")
gi.require_version("Gdk", "4.0")
gi.require_version("Gtk", "4.0")
from gi.repository import GLib, Gdk, Gtk
def f():
print(len(Gdk.Display.get_default().get_monitors()))
return True
GLib.timeout_add_seconds(1, f)
GLib.MainLoop().run()
```
With gtkmm, when using `Application()`, the display is initialized
before we know the application name and therefore, the program class
associated to the display is NULL.
Instead of providing a default value, we set it equal to program name
when NULL. Moreover, we give up on capitalizing the class name to keep
the code super simple. Also, not using a capitalized name is
consistent with `gdk_x11_display_open()`. If someone has a good reason
to use a capitalized name, here is how to do it.
```c
class_hint = XAllocClassHint ();
class_hint->res_name = (char *) g_get_prgname ();
if (display_x11->program_class)
{
class_hint->res_class = (char *) g_strdup (display_x11->program_class);
}
else if (class_hint->res_name && class_hint->res_name[0])
{
class_hint->res_class = (char *) g_strdup (class_hint->res_name);
class_hint->res_class[0] = g_ascii_toupper (class_hint->res_class[0]);
}
XSetClassHint (xdisplay, impl->xid, class_hint);
g_free (class_hint->res_class);
XFree (class_hint);
```
Fix eff53c023a ("x11: set a default value for program_class")
Usually the "dnd-finished" signal will be used to unref the GdkDrag. In
those cases, we would lose the object, so that when we do the final
drag_drop_done() afterwards, we wouldn't have a remaining reference.
With the reference guard, this now works.
It is good practice for (floating) window managers to respect explicit
position hints from clients (as long as the window wouldn't end up
off-screen etc.).
Before commit 13d3afa56e, GTK had a flag for setting the PPosition hint,
but now does so unconditionally. However the real intention is to *not*
request a fixed position, so don't do that.
nvidia sets the default draw buffer to GL_NONE if EGL contexts are
initially bound to EGL_NO_SURFACE which is exactly what we are doing. So
bind them to GL_BACK when drawing, as they should be.
See https://phabricator.services.mozilla.com/D118743 for a discussion
about EGL_NO_CONTEXT and draw buffers.
This has the benefit that we can refactor it and make sure we deal with
GdkDisplay::init_gl() not being called at all because
GDK_DEBUG=gl-disable had been specified.
It's not used there, but both backends have independent
immplementationgs for it.
I want to get rid of GdkGLContextX11 and moving code from it is the
first step.
Now that we have the display's context to hook into, we can use it to
construct other GL contexts and don't need a GdkSurface vfunc anymore.
This has the added benefit that backends can have different GdkGLContext
classes on the display and get new GLContexts generated from them, so
we get multiple GL backend support per GDK backend for free.
I originally wanted to make this a vfunc on GdkGLContextClass, but
it turns out all the abckends would just call g_object_new() anyway.
Instead of
Display::make_gl_context_current()
we now have
GLContext::clear_current()
GLContext::make_current()
This fits better with the backends (we can actually implement
clearCurrent on macOS now) and makes it easier to implement different GL
backends for backends (like EGL/GLX on X11).
We also pass a surfaceless boolean to make_current() so the calling code
can decide if a surface needs to be bound or not, because the backends
were all doing whatever, which was very counterproductive.
The code to create and manage a fake egl surface to bind to is
complex and completely untested because everyone seems to support this
extension.
nvidia and Mesa do support it and according to Mesa devs, adding support
in a new driver is rather simple and Mesa drivers gain that feature
automatically, so all future drivers shoould have it.
... or more exactly: Only use paint contexts with
gdk_cairo_draw_from_gl().
Instead of paint contexts being the only contexts who call swapBuffer(),
any context can be used for this, when it's used with
begin_frame()/end_frame().
This removes 2 features:
1. We no longer need a big sharing hierarchy. All contexts are now
shared with gdk_display_get_gl_context().
2. There is no longer a difference between attached and non-attached
contexts. All contexts work the same way.
The vfunc is called to initialize GL and it returns a "base" context
that GDK then uses as the context all others are shared with. So the GL
context share tree now looks like:
+ context from init_gl
- context1
- context2
...
So this is a flat tree now, the complexity is gone.
The only caveat is that backends now need to create a GL context when
initializing GL so some refactoring was needed.
Two new functions have been added:
* gdk_display_prepare_gl()
This is public API and can be used to ensure that GL has been
initialized or if not, retrieve an error to display (or debug-print).
* gdk_display_get_gl_context()
This is a private function to retrieve the base context from
init_gl(). It replaces gdk_surface_get_shared_data_context().
We try EGL first, but are very picky about what we accept.
If that fails, we try to go with GLX instead.
And if that also fails, we try EGL again, but this time accept anything.
The idea here is that EGL is the preferred method going forward, but GLX is
the tried and tested method that we know works. So if we detect issues with
EGL, we want to avoid using it in favor of GLX.
Also add a GDK_DEBUG=gl-egl option to force EGL at all costs and not try
GLX.
That way, we can give a useful error message when things break down for
users.
These error messages could still be improved in places (like looking at
the actual EGL error codes), but that seemed overkill.
Query the EGL_VISUAL_ID from the egl Config and select a config with the
matching Visual.
This is currently broken on Mesa because it does not expose any RGBA
X Visuals in any EGL config, so we always end up with opaque Windows.

This reverts commit c35a6725b9.
This approach doesn't work because if NVIDIA doesn't work for EGL, the
EGL implementation won't be provided by NVIDIA, so checking the vendor
doesn't work.
