We have seen during the Qt 5 series that QMouseEvent::source() does not provide enough information: if it is synthesized, it could have come from any device for which mouse events are synthesized, not only from a touchscreen. By providing in every QInputEvent as complete information about the actual source device as possible, we will enable very fine-tuned behavior in the object that handles each event. Further, we would like to support multiple keyboards, pointing devices, and named groups of devices that are known as "seats" in Wayland. In Qt 5, QPA plugins registered each touchscreen as it was discovered. Now we extend this pattern to all input devices. This new requirement can be implemented gradually; for now, if a QTWSI input event is received wtihout a device pointer, a default "core" device will be created on-the-fly, and a warning emitted. In Qt 5, QTouchEvent::TouchPoint::id() was forced to be unique even when multiple devices were in use simultaneously. Now that each event identifies the device it came from, this hack is no longer needed. A stub of the new QPointerEvent is added; it will be developed further in subsequent patches. [ChangeLog][QtGui][QInputEvent] Every QInputEvent now carries a pointer to an instance of QInputDevice, or the subclass QPointingDevice in case of mouse, touch and tablet events. Each platform plugin is expected to create the device instances, register them, and provide valid pointers with all input events. If this is not done, warnings are emitted and default devices are created as necessary. When the device has accurate information, it provides the opportunity to fine-tune behavior depending on device type and capabilities: for example if a QMouseEvent is synthesized from a touchscreen, the recipient can see which touchscreen it came from. Each device also has a seatName to distinguish users on multi-user windowing systems. Touchpoint IDs are no longer unique on their own, but the combination of ID and device is.

This directory contains autotests and benchmarks based on Qt Test. In order
to run the autotests reliably, you need to configure a desktop to match the
test environment that these tests are written for.
Linux X11:
* The user must be logged in to an active desktop; you can't run the
autotests without a valid DISPLAY that allows X11 connections.
* The tests are run against a KDE3 or KDE4 desktop.
* Window manager uses "click to focus", and not "focus follows mouse". Many
tests move the mouse cursor around and expect this to not affect focus
and activation.
* Disable "click to activate", i.e., when a window is opened, the window
manager should automatically activate it (give it input focus) and not
wait for the user to click the window.
