- This is unneeded in all import procedures. See previous commit. Note though
that this is not because of a change in previous commit. This was already
useless previously. The file set with this PDB function was overridden by the
core anyway (i.e. even before the previous commits).
In app/file/file-import.c:file_import_image(), the imported file is correctly
set (so there is no need to set it from plug-in, which anyway libgimp's
gimp_image_set_file() was not doing) and the XCF file is reset to NULL
(rendering the call to gimp_image_set_file() in a GimpLoadProcedure useless).
- Similarly, this is a useless call in export procedures because
app/file/file-save.c:file_save() overrides such call too. I could only see one
such case for JPEG export, which was quite useless.
- Finally in other types of plug-ins, setting a non-XCF file extension was
interfering with the save feature (similarly to commit e6e73e14c7). I only
fixed the screenshot implementations doing such a thing.
- I left a few usages which will have to be looked at more in details later.
Now that we bumped our meson requirement, meson is complaining about
several features now deprecated even in the minimum required meson
version:
s/meson.source_root/meson.project_source_root/ to fix:
> WARNING: Project targets '>=0.56.0' but uses feature deprecated since '0.56.0': meson.source_root. use meson.project_source_root() or meson.global_source_root() instead.
s/meson.build_root/meson.project_build_root/ to fix:
> WARNING: Project targets '>=0.56.0' but uses feature deprecated since '0.56.0': meson.build_root. use meson.project_build_root() or meson.global_build_root() instead.
Fixing using path() on xdg_email and python ExternalProgram variables:
> WARNING: Project targets '>=0.56.0' but uses feature deprecated since '0.55.0': ExternalProgram.path. use ExternalProgram.full_path() instead

fix:

Hence avoiding the stderr messages. These are going to be localized with
centrally installed catalogs "gimp*-std-plugins", "gimp*-script-fu" and
"gimp*-python".
We now handle core plug-in localizations differently and in particular,
with kind of a reverse logic:
- We don't consider "gimp*-std-plugins" to be the default catalog
anymore. It made sense in the old world where we would consider the
core plug-ins to be the most important and numerous ones. But we want
to push a world where people are even more encouraged to develop their
own plug-ins. These won't use the standard catalog anymore (because
there are nearly no reasons that the strings are the same, it's only a
confusing logic). So let's explicitly set the standard catalogs with
DEFINE_STD_SET_I18N macro (which maps to a different catalog for
script-fu plug-ins).
- Doing something similar for Python plug-ins which have again their own
catalog.
- Getting rid of the INIT_I18N macro since now all the locale domain
binding is done automatically by libgimp when using the set_i18n()
method infrastructure.
As explained in previous commits, the _peek_ call is advantageous
because:
- It is less bug-prone as we don't have to handle freeing the string. In
all the cases I changed, I even spotted at least 2 cases where we were
leaking a string (in file-mng, `temp_file_name` is never freed; and we
were also leaking in an error case of gfig).
- As a consequence of the previous point: simpler code with less lines.
- In local file cases, the _peek_ variant does not even need to allocate
an additional string.
- In other case, if we query several times the path, it is allocated
once and cached so it stays efficient.
- When possible, working on the GFile rather than on a path string may
be more robust. For instance I changed one g_unlink() into a
g_file_delete(). Actually most reading/writing should be done with the
GIO API when possible, but I didn't want to change too much code
logics on this commit.
We were loading 16-bit per sample SGI images as 8-bit
integer images even though we have had support for
16-bit integer for a long time now.
Changed to use 16-bit integer encoding now. Saw
this request a while ago on the gimp user mailing list.
The gimp_drawable_type() is an issue though as gimp_drawable_get_type()
is already defined as a common GObject API.
Though I'm actually wondering if GimpImageType is well called. Rather
than Type, shouldn't we go with ColorModel?
sed -i 's/\<gimp_drawable_bpp\>/gimp_drawable_get_bpp/g' "$@"
sed -i 's/\<gimp_drawable_width\>/gimp_drawable_get_width/g' "$@"
sed -i 's/\<gimp_drawable_height\>/gimp_drawable_get_height/g' "$@"
sed -i 's/\<gimp_drawable_offsets\>/gimp_drawable_get_offsets/g' "$@"
This commit just changes our saving API (i.e. the GimpSaveProcedure
class) to take an array of drawables as argument instead of a single
drawable.
It actually doesn't matter much for exporting as the whole API seems
more or less bogus there and all formats plug-ins mostly care only
whether they will merge/flatten all visible layers (the selected ones
don't really matter) or if the format supports layers of some sort. It
may be worth later strengthening a bit this whole logics, and maybe
allow partial exports for instance.
As for saving, it was not even looking at the passed GimpDrawable either
and was simply re-querying the active layer anyway.
Note that I don't implement the multi-selection saving in XCF yet in
this commit. I only updated the API. The reason is that the current
commit won't be backportable to gimp-2-10 because it is an API break. On
the other hand, the code to save multi-selection can still be backported
even though the save() API will only pass a single drawable (as I said
anyway, this argument was mostly bogus until now, hence it doesn't
matter much for 2.10 logics).
This gives a big cleanup in the meson.build files of the plug-ins.
It's also quite a bit more maintainable, since anything that changes in
libgimp's dependencies, linkage, ... doesn't have to be copy-pasted into
each plug-in.
and remember them internally between begin_run() and end_run().
Simplifies plug-in code even more.
Move the begin_run() before gimp_export_image() block in all export
plug-ins.
and use the changed gimp_int_store_new() in the dialog. It appears
to be a straightforward way to replace gimp_int_radio_group_new()
which should really go away for 3.0.
and in an attack of madness, changes almost all file plug-in
code to use GFile instead of filenames, which means passing
the GFile down to the bottom and get its filename at the very
end where it's actually needed.
When cross-compiling, I got various linking errors for printf() calls:
> undefined reference to `libintl_printf'
I am unsure why, since this is not recent code, and it used to build
fine with mingw64 compilers (last I cross-built, which is many months
ago). Anyway g_printf() works fine, all necessary libs are already
linked, and it is supposed to be a synonym. So let's just go the easy
way and use g_printf() only.
(cherry picked from commit c49afa4f84)
I am going to forbid plug-ins from being installed directly in the root
of the plug-ins/ directory. They will have to be installed in a
subdirectory named the same as the entry point binary.
This may seem useless for our core plug-ins which are nearly all
self-contained in single binaries, but this is actually a necessary
restriction to eliminate totally the DLL hell issue on Windows. Moving
core plug-ins in subfolders is only a necessary consequence for it.
...in both the core and libgimp.
Images now know what the default mode for new layers is:
- NORMAL for empty images
- NORMAL for images with any non-legacy layer
- NORMAL_LEGAVY for images with only legacy layers
This changes behavior when layers are created from the UI, but *also*
when created by plug-ins (yes there is a compat issue here):
- Most (all?) single-layer file importers now create NORMAL layers
- Screenshot, Webpage etc also create NORMAL layers
Scripts that create images from scratch (logos etc) should not be
affected because they usually have NORMAL_LEGACY hardcoded.
3rd party plug-ins and scripts will also behave old-style unless they
get ported to gimp_image_get_default_new_layer_mode().
with proper value names. Mark most values as _BROKEN because they use
weird alpha compositing that has to die. Move GimpLayerModeEffects to
libgimpbase, deprecate it, and set it as compat enum for GimpLayerMode.
Add the GimpLayerModeEffects values as compat constants to script-fu
and pygimp.
and clean up the formatting of the call and the lines around it. Now
we can check the various (disabled) export options for regressions
again by changing a single line in gimp_export_image().
I'm sure some plug-ins need to add their items *not* at the toplevel,
but since making plug-ins really tree-aware is a lot more work than
just fixing insert positions, I went for passing -1 as parent in
almost all cases. And because of laziness...
Created a resource file for plug-ins and a rule to link it to them.
The application icon file is smaller than the default one, there's no
point in doubling the size of a plug-in executable just for an icon.
If no problems turn up, this will close the bug.
