Since it appeared with GLib 2.68.0, we could not change this until we
bumped the dependency which has only become possible a few days ago
(since Debian testing is our baseline for dependency bumps). Cf.
previous commit.
As this is a drop-in replacement (just a guint parameter changed to
gsize to avoid integer overflow), search-and-replace with:
> sed -i 's/g_memdup\>/g_memdup2/g' `grep -rIl 'g_memdup\>' *`
… followed by a few manual alignment tweaks when necessary.
This gets rid of the many deprecation warnings which we had lately when
building with a recent GLib version.
In the generated libgimp wrappers, we can't return object arrays
from a call to GIMP_VALUES_DUP_OBJECT_ARRAY() because it returns
a deep copy and adds a reference to all objects, which the caller
would have to unref.
But we want a shallow (transfer container) copy because we don't want
libgimp proxy objects to be refed or unrefed by any user code.
Therefore, add a HACK that simply memdup()s and returns the
GimpObjectArray's array memory, and leaves the contained object
pointers alone.
Turn all ID param specs into object param specs (e.g. GimpParamImageID
becomes GimpParamImage) and convert between IDs and objects in
gimpgpparams.c directly above the the wire protocol, so all of app/,
libgimp/ and plug-ins/ can deal directly with objects down to the
lowest level and not care about IDs.
Use the actual object param specs for procedure arguments and return
values again instead of a plain g_param_spec_object() and bring back
the none_ok parameter.
This implies changing the PDB type checking functions to work on pure
integers instead of IDs (one can't check whether object creation is
possible if performing that check requires the object to already
exist).
For example gimp_foo_is_valid() becomes gimp_foo_id_is_valid() and is
not involved in automatic object creation magic at the protocol
level. Added wrappers which still say gimp_foo_is_valid() and take the
respective objects.
Adapted all code, and it all becomes nicer and less convoluted, even
the generated PDB wrappers in app/ and libgimp/.
This means that images' ownership is not given to caller in particular.
libgimp will now keep a reference of all GimpImage-s it creates and
return this same reference if called again. It also means that you can
now compare images by pointer comparison (as 2 GimpImage objects
representing the same image ID will be equal).
Obviously as a side effect, gimp_image_list() is changed to (transfer
container) as you must only free the container now, not the elements.
Also various other functions creating new images are now (transfer none)
too.
Long-time plug-ins will have to be taken in consideration in a further
step (we currently never free GimpImage for destroyed images in
particular).
I.e.: gimp_image_get_(layers|channels|vectors)(), gimp_image_list() and
gimp_item_get_children().
Instead of returning an array of IDs, these will now return a GList with
the right objects ready to use.
This means that all functions which were returning or taking as
parameter an image id (as gint32) are now taking a GimpImage object
instead.
The PDB is still passing around an id only over the wire. But we create
an object for plug-ins to work on.
This is quite a huge API break, but is probably the best bet for the
future quality. It will make nicer API instrospection (and nicer API in
binding), will fix the issues with pspec on GimpImageID in Python
bindings (which makes the current Python API unusable as soon as we need
to work on images, which is most of our plug-ins!), etc.
Also it will allow to use signals on images, which will be a great asset
when we will finally have bi-directionnal communications (i.e. plug-ins
would be able to connect to image changes, destructions, and whatnot).
So a value array can now we created like this:
array = gimp_value_array_new_from_types (&error_msg,
G_TYPE_STRING, "foo",
G_TYPE_INT, 23,
G_TYPE_NONE);
Change PDB generation to use this, which makes for much nicer code in
the libgimp wrappers, and only set arrays separately instead of all
values.
Also generate comments like "Must be freed with g_free()" for all
return values instead of manually and inconsistently having them on
some return values only.
This reverts commit 833666d462.
The _pdb files are an implementation detail and we do not want
separate doc sections for them, the conflicts need so be resolved in
another way.
Otherwise we get a few duplicate sections since some of the non-PDB
files are named similarly.
Fix this GObject introspection warning and other similar warnings:
> libgimp/gimp_pdb.c:28: Warning: Gimp: multiple comment blocks
> documenting 'SECTION:gimp:' identifier (already seen at gimp.c:129).
All foo_pdb.c functions in libgimp regenerated. I have reviewed this a
dozen times, but please have a look, there might well be glitches and
our public API is sortof important...
Add property "color-tag" of type enum GimpColorTag to GimpItem so all
layers, channels and paths can be tagged with a color.
For interoperability, use the color list from Krita which is a
superset of Photoshop's colors.
Features a "Color Tag" submenu in the layers, channels and paths
menus, a row of color radio buttons in the properties dialogs,
undo and PDB API.
As a side effect, some common code is now factores out into
items-actions.[ch] and items-commands.[ch] which adds visible, linked
and lock actions for layers and channels.
In e61b1f76 things were changed to return string arrays that can be
freed with g_strfreev(), but that returned a one-element array
containing a NULL pointer for zero-length arrays. Fix the code
to return NULL again for zero-length arrays. See bug #751584.
because it confuses gtk-doc and breaks some links. Also change the
"Index of new symbols in GIMP 2.x" sections to be what seems to be the
modern standard (looked at the GLib and GTK+ docs), and update some
other stuff.
Add the note about the need to free the returned string array
to the generated libgimp code. This way it will show up in the
libgimp documentation but not in the general PDB API.
Such comment should not be included in the general PDB
documentation as it is specific to the C bindings and can
be easily added by the pdbgen infrastructure.
This reverts commit c9888f2222.
Apply and heavily modify patch from remyDev which adds "lock position"
to GimpItem, similar to "lock content". Lock position disables all
sorts of translation and transform, from the GUI and the PDB.
Cleaned up some aspects of the lock content code as well because a
second instance of similar code always shows what went wrong the first
time.
gimp-item-find-parasite -> gimp-item-get-parasite
gimp-item-list-parasites -> gimp-item-get-parasite-list
Also changed the signature of gimp-item-get-parasite-list's C wrapper
in libgimp to be sane.
and rename them yet again to be gimp_item_foo_parasite() instead of
gimp_item_parasite_foo() because the latter is just a misnaming (they
are not GimpItemParasites, they are GimpParasites attached to
GimpItems, just as layers are attached to images).
