… and gimp_brush_get_mask().
gimp_brush_get_pixels() was a bit crappy, returning raw data with only
dimensions and bpp to go with (no color model/space, no bit depth…). So the
assumption is that we work with 8-bit per channel data, possibly with alpha
depending of number of channels as deduced from bpp, and very likely in sRGB
color space. It might be globally ok with many of the brush formats (and
historical brushes) but won't fare well as we improve brush capabilities.
- gimp_brush_get_pixels() is in fact made private.
- The 2 new functions are using this old PDB call _gimp_brush_get_pixels() to
construct buffers. This has some limitations, in particular that it returns
only 8-bit per channel sRGB data, but at least the signature won't change when
we will improve things in the future (so if some day, we pass fancy brushes in
high-bit depth, the method will stay the same).
- This new implementation also allows scaling down the brush (keeping aspect
ratio) which is useful when you need to fit a brush preview into a drawing
widget.
- Current implementation stores the buffers at native size in the libgimp's
GimpBrush object, hence save re-querying the core every time you need an
update. This can be improved as current implementation also means that you
don't get updates if the brush changed. This should handle most common use
cases for now, though.
- Also with this change, I move GimpBrush class implementation into its own
dedicated file.
Much like for images and items. Change the PDB to transmit IDs
instead of names for brush, pattern etc. and refactor a whole
lot of libgimp code to deal with it.

GLib has a specific type for byte arrays: `GBytes` (and it's underlying
GType `G_TYPE_BYTES`).
By using this type, we can avoid having a `GimpUint8Array` which is a
bit cumbersome to use for both the C API, as well as bindings. By using
`GBytes`, we allow other languages to pass on byte arrays as they are
used to, while the bindings will make sure to do the right thing.
In the end, it makes the API a little bit simpler for everyone, and
reduces confusion for people who are used to working with byte arrays
in other C/GLib based code (and not having 2 different types to denote
the same thing).

So procedures can declare args and GimpProcedureDialog show chooser
widgets
Fix so is no error dialog on id_is_valid for resources
Palette.pdb changes and testing
Memory mgt changes
Gradient pdb
Font and Pattern tests
Test brush, palette
Cleanup, remove generator
Rebase, edit docs, install test-dialog.py
Whitespace, and fix failed distcheck
Fix some clang-format, fix fail distcheck
Fix distcheck
Cleanup from review Jehan
By default the new API will be used. But if we build with
GIMP_DEPRECATED_REPLACE_NEW_API macro, then the same function names will
call the old API with ids.
This way, we don't have to update all our plug-ins at once (which I
tried and is very tedious work).
Note that bindings won't have access to the deprecated API at all.

* all files with a GPL header and all COPYING files:
Change licence to GPLv3 (and to LGPLv3 for libgimp).
Cleaned up some copyright headers and regenerated the parsers in
the ImageMap plugin.
svn path=/trunk/; revision=27913
2008-02-07 Michael Natterer <mitch@gimp.org>
* tools/pdbgen/app.pl: add some perl evilness to make the includes
in the generated files look almost like they should.
* tools/pdbgen/pdb/*.pdb: remove inclusion of "core/gimp.h" where
not needed, clean up lists of includes and functions and reorder
some functions to make more sense. Zero logic changed.
* app/pdb/*_cmds.c
* libgimp/gimpcontext_pdb.[ch]
* libgimp/gimpbrush_pdb.[ch]: regenerated.

2004-10-06 Michael Natterer <mitch@gimp.org>
* tools/pdbgen/pdb/brush.pdb: return the mask's bpp and the
brush's pixmap data if it has one.
* tools/pdbgen/pdb/pattern.pdb: cleaned up.
* tools/pdbgen/pdb/image.pdb: added $deprecated = 1 to deprecated
functions even if they are not exported to libgimp any more.
* app/pdb/procedural_db.h (struct ProcRecord): added member
"gboolean deprecated".
* tools/pdbgen/app.pl
* app/xcf/xcf.c: fill it accordingly.
* app/plug-in/plug-in-message.c (plug_in_handle_proc_run): warn
not only for deprecated procedured which are in the compat hach
table, but also for procedures with deprecated flag set to TRUE.
* app/pdb/*_cmds.c
* libgimp/gimpbrush_pdb.[ch]
* libgimp/gimppattern_pdb.[ch]: regenerated.
* libgimp/gimpbrushmenu.c
