The Windows backend produces full, multithreaded backtraces. When
DrMingw is available, it also provides full symbol and (where
available) source-location information. Otherwise, it provides
symbol information for most of our libraries, but not for the GIMP
binary itself.
GimpBacktrace provides an interface for creating and traversing
multi-threaded backtraces, as well as querying symbol information.
While we already have some backtrace functionality, it relies on
external tools for the most part, and as such is rather expensive,
and is only meant for producing opaque backtraces. GimpBacktrace,
on the other hand, is meant to be relatively cheap (we're going to
use it for profiling,) and allow inspection of the backtrace data.
In the future, it might make sense to replace some, or all, of the
other backtrace functions with GimpBacktrace.
GimpBacktrace currently only supports Linux. By default, it uses
dladdr() to query symbol information, which is somewhat limited (in
particular, it doesn't work for static functions.) When libunwind
is installed, GimpBacktrace uses it to get more complete symbol
information. libunwind is currently an optional dependency, but it
might make sense to promote it to a mandatory, or opt-out,
dependency, as it's lightweight and widely available.
On other platforms, the GimpBacktrace interface can still be used,
but it always returns NULL backtraces.
Right now it only loads AppStream data, which is completely useless, yet
is a base of a managed extension system. Having proper metadata is what
will allow to actually know what is installed.
This is only the first draft.
Note that I am not adding the extension path into GimpCoreConfig on
purpose, since the point is not to have people manage their extension
directories manually anymore.
The extensions will be loaded from the build-time system path or the
config directory, and that's all.
What will probably be stored in the config though will be the remote
repositories URLs (allowing third-party extension repositories).
Treat the gimp-core-pixbufs and gimp-icon-pixbufs resources like we
changed the cursor resources before, and clean out a lot of cruft from
icons/ (there is no need to generate stuff in all icon themes when we
include only one fallback icon from one theme).
GimpAsyncSet represents a dynamic set of running GimpAsync objects.
The objects are automatically removed from the set once they're
synced.
GimpAsyncSet implements the GimpWaitable and GimpCancelable
interfaces, allowing the entire set to be waited-on or canceled.
Additionally, GimpAsyncSet provides an "empty" property, which
indicates whether the set is empty or not. This allows responding
to the completion of all the GimpAsync objects through the set's
"notify::empty" signal, or drive UI changes through property
bindings.
GimpUncancelableWaitable is a simple proxy object for another
GimpWaitable object, implementing only the GimpWaitable interface.
Its main purpose is to mask away the cancelability of an object
implementing both GimpWaitable and GimpCancelable.
Add gimp-parallel.[cc,h], which provides a set of parallel
algorithms.
These currently include:
- gimp_parallel_distribute(): Calls a callback function in
parallel on multiple threads, passing it the current thread
index, and the total number of threads. Allows specifying the
maximal number of threads used.
- gimp_parallel_distribute_range(): Splits a range of integers
between multiple threads, passing the sub-range to a callback
function. Allows specifying the minimal sub-range size.
- gimp_parallel_distribute_area(): Splits a rectangular area
between multiple threads, passing the sub-area to a callback
function. Allows specifying the minimal sub-area.
The callback function is passed using an appropriately-typed
function pointer, and a user-data pointer. Additionally, when used
in a C++ file, each of the above functions has an overloaded
template version, taking the callback through a generic parameter,
without a user-data pointer, which allows using function objects.
Some gimprc properties' default values depend on the machine where
"make dist" in run. We had an ugly hack in place to force
(num-processors 1) in the installed system gimprc and its manpage, but
were still leaking "tile-cache-size" and "mypaint-brush-path".
The files are generated by the hidden options --dump-gimprc-system
and --dump-gimprc-manpage which exist only for this purpose.
In gimpconfig-dump.c, special case the three properties in
dump_gimprc_system() and dump_gimprc_manpage() to output constant
default values for "num-processors" and "tile-cache-size" and
output @mypaint_brushes_dir@ in "mypaint-brush-path" which can
be replaced at configure time.
Also introduce etc/gimprc.in so @mypaint_brushes_dir@ can actually be
substituted for the installed system gimprc.
The reason is that this file is now included for a binary in tools/ as
well (the debug binary) and tools/ contents needs to be built before
app/. Even using BUILT_SOURCES in the Makefile under app/ is not enough.
Anyway it makes sense that this file should be under the root of the
repository since that describes the status of the source repository. So
let's move it up one folder.
Since commit 9fdf35550b, I removed the GIMP_APP_GLUE_COMPILATION check
because we need to have the whole versioning info from the new debug
widget. It just makes sense to go further and just make this a proper
internal API to get version information.
AFAIK this means on all platforms but Win32 and macOS which would rather
need relative path and therefore cannot make use of build-time
LIBEXECDIR. Anyway on these platforms, leaving the binary in BINDIR is
not likely to "pollute" too much as it would on Linux or BSD where
people often use terminal.
Commit 3635cf04ab moved the special
handling of bottom-layer compositing to GimpOperationLayerMode.
This required giving the op more control over the process()
function of its subclasses. As a temporary workaround, the commit
bypassed the subclasses entirely, using "gimp:layer-mode" for all
modes. This is the reckoning :)
Add a process() virtual function to GimpOperationLayerMode, which
its subclasses should override instead of
GeglOperationPointComposer3's process() functions. Reinstate the
subclasses (by returning the correct op in
gimp_layer_mode_get_oepration()), and have them override this
function.
Improve the way gimp_operation_layer_mode_process() dispatches to
the actual process function, to slightly lower its overhead and
fix some thread-safety issues.
Remove the "function" field of the layer-mode info array, and have
gimp_layer_mode_get_function() return the
GimpOperationLayerMode::process() function of the corresponding
op's class (caching the result, to keep it cheap.) This reduces
redundancy, allows us to make the ops' process() functions private,
and simplifies SSE dispatching (only used by NORMAL mode,
currently.)
Move the blend and composite functions of the non-specialized
layer modes to gimpoperationlayermode-{blend,composite}.[hc],
respectively, to improve code organization.
Move the SSE2 composite functions to a separate file, so that they
can be built as part of libapplayermodes_sse2, allowing
libapplayermodes to be built without SSE2 compiler flags. This
allows building GIMP with SSE acceleration enabled, while running
the resulting binary on a target with no SSE accelration.
Add a "blend_function" field to the layer-mode info array, and use
it to specify the blend function for the non-specialized modes.
This replaces the separate switch() statement that we used
previously.
Remove the "affected_region" field of the layer-mode info array.
We don't need it anymore, since we can go back to using
GimpOperationLayerMode's virtual get_affected_region() function.
Last but not least, a bunch of code cleanups and consistency
adjustments.
The abbreviated commit hash we show in the shell and the about
dialog is currently just the last 7 characters of 'git describe',
based on the assumption that abbreviated hashes are always 7-digits
long. When the hash is longer than that, we're just showing a
nonsense commit.
This was never a good idea, since users can override this, and
since disambiguation can result in longer hashes, but since git
2.11, the default abbreviated hash length is determined based on
the size of the repository, which currently results in 10 digits
for us.
Let's just do it right.
and initialize units in gimp_init(). This was completely
over-engineered but in the end boils down to a bad hack that needs a
static "the_unit_gimp" pointer anyway, so let's at least have the hacks
in one file.
The work-in-progress was using a source tree of libmypaint embedded
into GIMP tree. This is a cleaning with pkg-config test in configure,
and correct includes.
and parse the profile in gimpimageprofileview.c instead of calling the
lcms plug-in. Make the app link against lcms. This is WIP because the
widget is of course the wrong place for such profile parsing code.
Based on original patches from Hartmut Kuhse and modified
by Michael Natterer. Changes include:
- remove libexif dependency and add a hard dependency on gexiv2
- typedef GExiv2Metadata to GimpMetadata to avoid having to
include gexiv2 globally
- add basic GimpMetadata handling functions to libgimpbase
- add image and image file specific metadata functions to libgimp,
including the exif orientation image rotate dialog
- port plug-ins to use the new APIs
- port file-tiff-save's UI to GtkBuilder
- add new plug-in "metadata" to view the image's metadata
- keep metadata around as GimpImage member in the core
- update the image's metadata on image size, resolution and precision
changes
- obsolete the old metadata parasites
- migrate the old parasites to new GimpMetadata object on XCF load
Source file ("unique.c") includes header file from subdirectory
("gui/gimpdbusservice.h") which includes generated header file
("gimpdbusservice-generated.h").
In off-root builds this file isn't created in the same directory,
therefore the directory needs to be explicitly added as an include path.
