Many use cases for clonning an actor don't require running a shader on the
resulting clone image and so requiring FBOs in these cases is overkill and
in-efficient as it requires kicking and synchronizing a render for each clone.
This approach basically just uses the paint function of another actor to
implement the painting for the clone actor with some fiddling of the model-
view matrix to scale according to the different allocation box sizes of
each of the actors.
A simple unit test called test-actors2 was added for testing.
The Effects API and all related symbols have been superceded by
the newly added Animation API and clutter_actor_animate().
This commit removes the Effects implementation, the documentation
and the interactive test/example code.

My previous work to provide muti-texturing support has been extended into
a CoglMaterial abstraction that adds control over the texture combine
functions (controlling how multiple texture layers are blended together),
the gl blend function (used for blending the final primitive with the
framebuffer), the alpha function (used to discard fragments based on
their alpha channel), describing attributes such as a diffuse, ambient and
specular color (for use with the standard OpenGL lighting model), and
per layer rotations. (utilizing the new CoglMatrix utility API)
For now the only way this abstraction is exposed is via a new
cogl_material_rectangle function, that is similar to cogl_texture_rectangle
but doesn't take a texture handle (the source material is pulled from
the context), and the array of texture coordinates is extended to be able
to supply coordinates for each layer.
Note: this function doesn't support sliced textures; supporting sliced
textures is a non trivial problem, considering the ability to rotate layers.
Note: cogl_material_rectangle, has quite a few workarounds, for a number of
other limitations within Cogl a.t.m.
Note: The GLES1/2 multi-texturing support has yet to be updated to use
the material abstraction.
The test-opacity interactive test is superceded by the equivalent
units inside the conformance test suite.
The test-entry interactive test is superceded by the test-text one.
The TidyText actor is meant as a replacement for both ClutterLabel
and ClutterText.
Any text-displaying and editing actor should derive from ClutterText
and implement the various visual cues to differentiate the editable
from the non-editable state. Those visual cues usually belong to
a high-level toolkit, especially if themeing is involved.
* clutter/Makefile.am:
* clutter/clutter.h: Add ClutterBindingPool to the build.
* clutter/clutter-binding-pool.c:
* clutter/clutter-binding-pool.h: Add ClutterBindingPool, a data
structure meant to hold (key symbol, modifiers) pairs and associate
them to a closure. The ClutterBindingPool can be used to install
key bindings for actors and then execute closures inside the
key-press-event signal handlers, removing the need for big
switch() or if() blocks for each key.
* clutter/clutter-event.c: Consistently use "key symbol" instead
of "key value".
* clutter/clutter-event.h: Add more modifier masks.
* clutter/clutter-marshal.list:
* tests/conform/Makefile.am:
* tests/conform/test-binding-pool.c:
* tests/conform/test-conform-main.c: Add ClutterBindingPool
conformance test.
* tests/interactive/Makefile.am:
* tests/interactive/test-binding-pool.c: Add interactive test (and
example code) for the ClutterBindingPool usage.
Bug 1014 - Clutter Animation API Improvements
* clutter/Makefile.am:
* clutter/clutter.h: Update the build
* clutter/clutter-types.h: Add AnimationMode, an enumeration
for easing functions.
* clutter/clutter-alpha.[ch]: Add the :mode property to
control the function bound to an Alpha instance using an
enumeration value. Also add six new alpha functions:
- ease-in, ease-out, ease-in-out
- sine-in, sine-out, sine-in-out
* clutter/clutter-deprecated.h: Deprecate the #defines for
the alpha functions. They will be replaced by entries in the
ClutterAnimationMode.
* clutter/clutter-interval.[ch]: Add ClutterInterval, an
object for defining, validating and computing an interval
between two values.
* clutter/clutter-animation.[ch]: Add ClutterAnimation, an
object responsible for animation the properties of a single
actor along an interval of values. ClutterAnimation memory
management is automatic. A simple wrapper method for
ClutterActor is provided:
clutter_actor_animate()
which will create, or update, an animation for the passed
actor.
* clutter/clutter-debug.h:
* clutter/clutter-main.c: Add a new 'animation' debug note.
* clutter/clutter-script.c: Clean up the alpha functions
whitelist, and add the new functions.
* doc/reference/clutter/Makefile.am:
* doc/reference/clutter/clutter-sections.txt: Update the
API reference.
* doc/reference/clutter/clutter-animation.xml: Renamed to
doc/reference/clutter/clutter-animation-tutorial.xml to
avoid clashes with the ClutterAnimation section.
* doc/reference/clutter/clutter-docs.sgml: Renamed to
doc/reference/clutter/clutter-docs.xml, as it was an XML
file and not a SGML file.
* tests/Makefile.am:
* tests/interactive/Makefile.am:
* tests/interactive/test-animation.c:
* tests/interactive/test-easing.c: Add two tests for the
new simple animation API and the easing functions.

* tests/interactive/test-threads.c:
* tests/interactive/test-viewport.c: Update interactive tests
to the deprecations and new alpha API.
* tests/interactive/test-pixmap.c:
test-pixmap + test-devices accidentally got dropped from the makefiles
when changing the unit test layout; this puts them back.
* tests/conform/Makefile.am:
* tests/conform/test-actor-invariants.c:
* tests/conform/test-conform-main.c: Move the actor invariants
unit to the conform section of the test suite.
* tests/interactive/Makefile.am:
* tests/interactive/test-entry-auto.c:
* tests/interactive/test-invariants.c: Remove the entry-auto
and invariants test, since those two belong to the conform
section.

The tests have been reorganised into different categories: conformance,
interactive and micro benchmarks.
- conformance tests can be run as part of automated tests
- interactive tests are basically all the existing tests
- micro benchmarks focus on a single performance metric
I converted the timeline tests to conformance tests and also added some
tests from Neil Roberts and Ebassi.
Note: currently only the conformance tests use the glib test APIs,
though the micro benchmarks should too.
The other change is to make the unit tests link into monolithic binaries
which makes the build time for unit tests considerably faster. To deal
with the extra complexity this adds to debugging individual tests I
have added some sugar to the makefiles so all the tests can be run
directly via a symlink and when an individual test is run this way,
then a note is printed to the terminal explaining exactly how that test
may be debugged using GDB.
There is a convenience make rule: 'make test-report', that will run all
the conformance tests and hopefully even open the results in your web
browser. It skips some of the slower timeline tests, but you can run
those using 'make full-report'
