Since we'll want to share the fallback logic with CoglVertexArray this
moves the malloc based fallback (for when OpenGL doesn't support vertex
or pixel buffer objects) into cogl-buffer.c.
Explicitly warn if we detect that a CoglBuffer is being freed while it
is still mapped. Previously we silently unmapped the buffer, but it's
not something we want to encourage.
This makes CoglBuffer track the last used bind target as a private
property. This is later used when binding a buffer to map instead of
always using the PIXEL_UNPACK target.
This also adds some additional sanity checks that code doesn't try to
nest binds to the same target or bind a buffer to multiple targets at
the same time.
This allows you to tell Cogl that you are planning to replace all the
buffer's data once it is mapped with cogl_buffer_map. This means if the
buffer is currently being accessed by the GPU then the driver doesn't
have to stall and wait for it to finish before it can access it from the
CPU and can instead potentially allocate a new buffer with undefined
data and map that.
The usage hint should be implied by the CoglBuffer subclass type so the
public getter and setter APIs for manually changing the usage hint of a
CoglBuffer have now been removed.
Instead of having to extend cogl_is_buffer with new buffer types
manually this now adds a new COGL_BUFFER_DEFINE macro to be used instead
of COGL_OBJECT_DEFINE for CoglBuffer subclasses. This macro will
automatically register the new type with ctx->buffer_types which will
iterated by cogl_is_buffer. This is the same coding pattern used for
CoglTexture.
We had several different ways of exposing experimental API, in one case
the symbols had no special suffix, in two other ways the symbols were
given an _EXP suffix but in different ways.
This makes all experimental API have an _EXP suffix which is handled
using #defines in the header so the prototypes in the .c and .h files
don't have the suffix.
The documented reason for the suffix is so that anyone watching Cogl for
ABI changes who sees symbols disappear will hopefully understand what's
going on.
As part of an effort to improve the architecture of CoglMaterial
internally this overhauls how we flush layer state to OpenGL by adding a
formal backend abstraction for fragment processing and further
formalizing the CoglTextureUnit abstraction.
There are three backends: "glsl", "arbfp" and "fixed". The fixed backend
uses the OpenGL fixed function APIs to setup the fragment processing,
the arbfp backend uses code generation to handle fragment processing
using an ARBfp program, and the GLSL backend is currently only there as
a formality to handle user programs associated with a material. (i.e.
the glsl backend doesn't yet support code generation)
The GLSL backend has highest precedence, then arbfp and finally the
fixed. If a backend can't support some particular CoglMaterial feature
then it will fallback to the next backend.
This adds three new COGL_DEBUG options:
* "disable-texturing" as expected should disable all texturing
* "disable-arbfp" always make the arbfp backend fallback
* "disable-glsl" always make the glsl backend fallback
* "show-source" show code generated by the arbfp/glsl backends
While this is totally fine (0 in the pointer context will be converted
in the right internal NULL representation, which could be a value with
some bits to 1), I believe it's clearer to use NULL in the pointer
context.
It seems that, in most case, it's more an overlook than a deliberate
choice to use FALSE/0 as NULL, eg. copying a _COGL_GET_CONTEXT (ctx, 0)
or a g_return_val_if_fail (cond, 0) from a function returning a
gboolean.
This replaces the use of CoglHandle with strongly type CoglBuffer *
pointers instead. The only function not converted for now is
cogl_is_buffer which will be done in a later commit.
Since using addresses that might change is something that finally
the FSF acknowledge as a plausible scenario (after changing address
twice), the license blurb in the source files should use the URI
for getting the license in case the library did not come with it.
Not that URIs cannot possibly change, but at least it's easier to
set up a redirection at the same place.
As a side note: this commit closes the oldes bug in Clutter's bug
report tool.

In the frenzy of the last 10mins before API freeze, I obviously forgot
to update the OpenGL path for _cogl_buffer_hints_to_gl_enum(). This
commit fixes this.
We've had complaints that our Cogl code/headers are a bit "special" so
this is a first pass at tidying things up by giving them some
consistency. These changes are all consistent with how new code in Cogl
is being written, but the style isn't consistently applied across all
code yet.
There are two parts to this patch; but since each one required a large
amount of effort to maintain tidy indenting it made sense to combine the
changes to reduce the time spent re indenting the same lines.
The first change is to use a consistent style for declaring function
prototypes in headers. Cogl headers now consistently use this style for
prototypes:
return_type
cogl_function_name (CoglType arg0,
CoglType arg1);
Not everyone likes this style, but it seems that most of the currently
active Cogl developers agree on it.
The second change is to constrain the use of redundant glib data types
in Cogl. Uses of gint, guint, gfloat, glong, gulong and gchar have all
been replaced with int, unsigned int, float, long, unsigned long and char
respectively. When talking about pixel data; use of guchar has been
replaced with guint8, otherwise unsigned char can be used.
The glib types that we continue to use for portability are gboolean,
gint{8,16,32,64}, guint{8,16,32,64} and gsize.
The general intention is that Cogl should look palatable to the widest
range of C programmers including those outside the Gnome community so
- especially for the public API - we want to minimize the number of
foreign looking typedefs.
OpenGL ES has no PBO extension, so we fallback to using a malloc'ed
buffer. Make sure the OpenGL-only defines don't leak into the OpenGL ES
compilation.
Buffer objects are cool! This abstracts the buffer API first introduced
by GL_ARB_vertex_buffer_object and then extended to other objects.
The coglBuffer abstract class is intended to be the base class of all
the buffer objects, letting the user map() buffers. If the underlying
implementation does not support buffer objects (or only support VBO but
not FBO for instance), fallback paths should be provided.
