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.
For the X11 backend, keep a list of monitors for which the surface
intersects the monitor area.
Whenever the X11 surface is configured, check against the list of
monitors to determine whether it enters a new monitor or if it left a
monitor, to emit the corresponding ::enter/leave-monitor signals just
like a Wayland compositor would.
As monitors can be added, removed or reconfigured at any time, redo
those checks whenever any of these events occur.
Stop rewriting key and focus events on the GDK side.
Instead deliver them as they are, and propagate them
from the root on the gtk side, in gtkmain.c. And
stop complaining about focus events on popups - we
can just ignore them if we have no use for them.
A toplevel will only ever be transient-for to another toplevel, and only
a toplevel will ever be transient-for, so move the field into the
GdkWaylandToplevel, and make it a pointer to another GdkWaylandToplevel.
We them up there, so that code higher up compared to where they are
defined now can make use of them. Also add a few macros for type
checking and casting.
The third version of xdg-shell introduces support for explicit popup
repositioning. If available, make use of this to implement popup
repositioning.
Note that this does *NOT* include atomic parent-child state
synchronization. For that,
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/wayland/wayland-protocols/issues/13 will
be needed.
This currently uses my own fork of wayland-protocols which adds meson
support, so that we can use it as a subproject. Eventually when
wayland-protocols' meson support lands upstream, we should change it to
point there.
Silence some meson warnings while at it to make CI happy.
This also bumps the glib requirement, since g_warning_once() is used.
We don't need all of them, only the ones that contain public API. This
allows us to reduce the chance of a stray symbol getting incorrectly
added to the introspection data.
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.
Add all of the keyboard translation results in the key event,
so we can translate the keyboard state at the time the event
is created, and avoid doing state translation at match time.
We actually need to carry two sets of translation results,
since we ignore CapsLock when matching accelerators, in
gdk_event_matches().
At the same time, drop the scancode field - it is only ever
set on win32, and is basically unused in GTK.
Update all callers.
The win32 backend is using GDK_MOD2_MASK for AltGr,
so define GDK_MOD2_MASK locally to keep this working,
but remove any mention of GDK_MOD3_MASK,...,GDK_MOD5_MASK.
With C compilers defaulting to -fcommon, this isn't an issue, but
upcoming compilers (GCC 10 and Clang 11) will default to -fno-common,
ending up with duplicate definitions of these variables.
With the removal of `gdk_seat_grab` we do not need to keep the
definitions of `GdkGrabStatus` and `GdkGrabOwnership` public.
Move those definitions to become internal only.
When we reconfigure, `configure_file()` is called again, and
`*.gresource.xml` files are regenerated, which causes many (all?)
binaries to be relinked. Now we only write those out if the contents
actually changed (or if the output didn't already exist).
This is exactly what Meson already does with `configure_file()` when
`command:` is not used.
While we're at it, also do the same for `gen-c-array.py` and
`gentypefuncs.py` for completeness. Now even if the input to those
changes, re-building of those custom targets may not result in
relinking if the outputted C files have the same contents.
When we `Alt+Tab` away from a GTK application, it loses keyboard focus.
If we don't clear the modifiers, events from other devices that we
receive while unfocused will assume `Alt` is still pressed. This results
in e.g. Firefox navigating through the history instead of scrolling the
page when using the mouse wheel on it.
We don't get any information about modifiers while we are missing
keyboard focus, so assuming no modifiers are active is the best we can
do.
The shell sends us a modifier update immediately before we regain
keyboard focus, so the state shouldn't get out of sync.
Fixes https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gtk/-/issues/2112
Win32 backend doesn't have support for inhibit shortcuts, yet it needs
support the standard set of GdkToplevel properties.
Add support for the "inhibit-list" object property to GdkToplevel on
win32.
