Summary of changes

Detailed changes

phoc (0.31.0) experimental; urgency=medium
.
  * ci: Install gcovr.
    Use that instead of lcov to make ninja happy
  * utils: Drop long_side and short_side when calculating scale.
    Otherwise we no longer match the correct width in mm to the
    pixel width and physical height to the pixel height.
  * Add missing includes.
    The modules use wlr_subcompositor or PhocInputMethodRelay
    but didn't include the headers.
  * seat: Add types for GSLists
  * seat: Name `self` as such.
    We're not super consistent in seat.c yet but can fixup functions we
    touch anyway.
  * seat: Make on_tablet_destroy consistent with other on_*_destroy
  * seat: Free device lists
  * virtual: Fix indent
  * pointer: Add missing G_{BEGIN,END}_DECLS
  * switch: Make switches GObjects.
    Helps to further unclutter the headers and improves separation: Switch
    notifies and the seat acts on it.
  * seat: Use `self` in seat_add_switch
  * switch: Allow to infer switch type
  * Simplify getting PhocSeat from wlr_seat.
    No need to get an input (which often involves getting the server first)
    and then iterate when we can infer it directly.
  * render: Move wlr_box_from_pixman_box32 past struct declarations
  * render: Untabify phoc_renderer_initable_init.
    This removes the last tab in this file so we can drop it from
    check-indent to not break the tests.
  * render: Use G_LIKELY to check if touch point debugging is disabled.
    It's likely off so let the compiler optimize for that. In cases
    where we iterate over the list we can check that rather than the
    debug flag.
  * render: Move `continue` to separate line.
    While at that fix some other indentation nits in
    collect_touch_points().
  * treewide: Use g_assert consistently.
    We had some remaining plain `assert ()`. This makes sure we can use
    G_DISABLE_ASSERT.
  * cursor: Use G_UNLIKELY for debug flag
  * cursor: Fix indentation
  * cursor: Use explicit cast
    Make use of the full line length and give every protocol that also
    registers signals a small block to ease readability.
    This also gets rid of tabs in that function which made indenting
    harder than necessary.
  * desktop: Enable support for wp_single_pixel_buffer protocol
  * desktop: Fix formatting of handle_xwayland_*
  * Set xwayland seat when XWayland comes up.
    Since XWayland can run on demand setting it only on server startup
    is not enough.
    This unbreaks copy/paste between X11 and Wayland applications as
    selection handling doesn't work without an assigned seat.
    It also prevents emacs from hanging on close when trying to safe the
    clipboard.
  * seat: Rename seat_{set,get}_focus to seat_{set,get}_focus_view.
    This makes it consistent with seat_set_focus_layer().
  * view: Document phoc_view_activate
  * server: Make it simple to get the last focused seat.
    The current server -> input -> seat wasn't nice.
  * view: Reindent and prefix view_initial_focus
  * view: Reindent and prefix view_setup()
  * view: Simplify phoc_view_set_initial_focus()
    Just use phoc_server_get_last_active_seat ()
  * view: Make the activation token a r/o property.
    It's only supposed to be set by derived classes and those can use the
    phoc_view_set_activation_token().
    We could move that method to view-private.h but keep it in view.h
    for the moment to keep code movement at bay.
  * view: Allow to submit and clear the activation token.
    Will be used in follow up commits
  * xdg-activation: Just let the seat handle the activation.
    The token is meant to focus the view so invoke phoc_seat_focus_view()
    and handle the token submission there.
    This also works for yet unmapped view as all view derived classes
    call phoc_view_setup()
           --> phoc_view_set_initial_focus()
             --> phoc_set_set_focus_view ()
  * view: Drag token type around.
    This will allow us to flush tokens for other protocols too
  * gtk-shell: Add TODO.
    We should use the startup-id for activation.
  * xwayland-surface: Use startup_id for activation.
    Instead of just notifying that we received the startup-id use
    it for actual activation.
  * build: Don't redefine PHOC_XWAYLAND for the doc build.
    We bring it in via phoc-config.h already
  * doc-check: Fail on gi-docgen and (most) gir compiler warnings.
    This way we can use it in ci. We filter out some warnings we don't want
    to fix right away.
  * ci: Fail on gi-docgen warnings.
    Let's make sure we catch these.
  * view: Reindent subsurface_destroy.
    We're adding more code around that
  * view: Implement subsurface:get_pos.
    Closes: https://gitlab.gnome.org/World/Phosh/phoc/-/issues/331
  * view: Drop fallback for ChildView without get_pos.
    It's mandatory now
  * render: No need to schedule frame after adding touch point damage
    damage_touch_point_cb invokes wlr_output_damage_add which does that
    already.
  * render: Move damage checking to a separate function
  * render: Stay clear of wlr_ namespace.
    We use `box` instead of `wlr_box` in function and method names elsewhere.
    This makes sure a function doesn't look like if it's coming from
    wlroots.
  * output: Move phoc_output_scale_box to utils.
    The output argument is unused. This makes it clearer that we don't care
    about any output rotation or scale in this function.
  * output-shield: Use proper prefix
  * utils: Document phoc_utils_compute_scale
  * treewide: Use explicit cast for wlr_output->data.
    This gives us some additional type checks.
  * desktop: Make it simple to get the output at given layout coordinates
  * cursor: Use phoc_desktop_layout_get_output.
    This simplifies the back and forth between output and
    wlr_output. PhocView's methods will soon switch to using PhocOutput
    rather than wlr_output as arguments which will further simplify this.
  * desktop: Simplify phoc_desktop_surface_at
    wlr_output->data, phoc_output and output all refer to the same output.
    Just use output everywhere.
  * view: Use phoc_desktop_layout_get_output
  * output: Invoke arrange-layers less
    phoc_layer_shell_arrange() needs to be called on mode, scale and
    transform changes to adjust the layer surfaces and available space for
    views. It doesn't need to be called when we only submit damage or attach
    new buffers. This reduces the number of invocations (and hence used CPU
    time).
    Fixes: 3d788792 ("Update to wlroots 0.13 and drop support for older versions")
  * output: Handle mode changes in commit handler.
    No need for an extra listener
  * input: Invoke constructed of parent object first.
    For consistency with other objects, doesn't change anything here.
  * input: Use 'self' in 'handle_new_input'
  * input: Make sure we always add a seat.
    Otherwise the headless backend doesn't expose a wl_seat which makes it
    hard to use for tests.
  * layer-shell-effects: Drop version.
    We want to check resource versions anyway so no need to track
    the passed in version.
  * desktop: Make phoc specific protocols private.
    We want to empty out PhocDesktop and as we add a new protocol
    this is another step in that direction.
  * input: Add a doc string for phoc_input_get_seat()
  * seat: Introduce private struct.
    As with other objects we don't want to make more internal members
    public. So introduce a private struct and should we have all members
    private we can drop this again.
    Let's start with PhocInput which will already help to e.g. unclutter
    headers further.
    There's a bunch of easy follow ups like the device lists.
  * switch: Allow to query switch by type.
    We use wlroots enums for the switch types.
  * seat: Update capabilities for seat on switch changes too.
    We want to update the device state caps as well.
  * Add phoc-device-state-unstable protocol.
    This is meant to inform interested clients about hardware device state
    not handled via wl_seat's capabilities. This for now includes lid
    and tablet mode switches but we can also extend that to cover hardware
    keyboards later.
    The `PhocSeat` dispatches between the signals emitted from the
    `PhocSwitch` and the device-state protocol so we keep the switch
    itself clear from caring about any protocol details.
    Can be tested via the `device-state` example.
    Helps: https://gitlab.gnome.org/World/Phosh/phoc/-/issues/320
  * switch: Keep track of switch state.
    This allows us to query the switch state at any time and not only when
    receiving events.
  * device-state: Send initial switch state.
    Whenever a client connects send the switch state if known
  * build: Bump required meson version to 0.63.0
    diff_files was only introduces there and 1.0 is in Debian stable
  * property-easer: Allow for unsigned int properties too
  * output: cache renderer.
    We need the renderer at different places, no need to get it over
    and over again.
  * view: Add method to get dimensions of the maximized box
  * view: Use phoc_view_get_maximized_box in phoc_view_arrange_maximized.
    Note that we don't take the geometry into account as this is the
    clients geometry prior to resize anyway.
  * view: Add method to get dimensions of the tiled box
  * view: Use phoc_view_get_tiled_box in phoc_view_arrange_tiled
  * output: Keep the outputs layout coordinates around.
    We need them ever so often
  * output: Simplify phoc_output_get_decoration_box.
    By using phoc_utils_scale_box we also handle fractional scaling better.
  * output: Make it simple to submit damage
  * Add boxed types for colors and boxes.
    We want to use these as GObject properties so create
    thin wrappers.
  * Add an interface to render blings.
    To attach some graphical sugar in various spaces of the compositor
    add an interface the objects can implement to get rendered.
    This will allow us to have e.g. additional rects or quads in various
    places when needed. We can combine this nicely with PhocTimedAnimation.
  * view: Allow to add and render blings.
    These are currently all rendered before the view.
  * view: Add TODO.
    We want decorations to use the bling interface too
  * Add support for using colored rectangles as blings.
    This allows them to be rendered e.g. when attached to views.
  * output-shield: Add TODO.
    The PhocOutputShields can use a PhocColorRect
  * cursor: Suggest window state changes.
    Instead of changing the size right away suggest the new size when tiling
    and maximizing and only resize if still within the threshold when
    releasing the button.
    Closes: https://gitlab.gnome.org/World/Phosh/phoc/-/issues/309
    Closes: https://gitlab.gnome.org/World/Phosh/phoc/-/issues/203
  * cursor: Make phoc_cursor_handle_constraint_commit static.
    Not needed outside the cursor code.
  * cursor: Drop unnused view parameter from phoc_cursor_submit_pending_view_state_change
  * cursor: Don't forget to apply state changes with touch.
