This commit changes the meaning of sway_container so that it only refers
to layout containers and view containers. Workspaces, outputs and the
root are no longer known as containers. Instead, root, outputs,
workspaces and containers are all a type of node, and containers come in
two types: layout containers and view containers.
In addition to the above, this implements type safe variables. This
means we use specific types such as sway_output and sway_workspace
instead of generic containers or nodes. However, it's worth noting that
in a few places places (eg. seat focus and transactions) referring to
them in a generic way is unavoidable which is why we still use nodes in
some places.
If you want a TL;DR, look at node.h, as well as the struct definitions
for root, output, workspace and container. Note that sway_output now
contains a workspaces list, and workspaces now contain a tiling and
floating list, and containers now contain a pointer back to the
workspace.
There are now functions for seat_get_focused_workspace and
seat_get_focused_container. The latter will return NULL if a workspace
itself is focused. Most other seat functions like seat_get_focus and
seat_set_focus now accept and return nodes.
In the config->handler_context struct, current_container has been
replaced with three pointers: node, container and workspace. node is the
same as what current_container was, while workspace is the workspace
that the node resides on and container is the actual container, which
may be NULL if a workspace itself is focused.
The global root_container variable has been replaced with one simply
called root, which is a pointer to the sway_root instance.
The way outputs are created, enabled, disabled and destroyed has
changed. Previously we'd wrap the sway_output in a container when it is
enabled, but as we don't have containers any more it needs a different
approach. The output_create and output_destroy functions previously
created/destroyed the container, but now they create/destroy the
sway_output. There is a new function output_disable to disable an output
without destroying it.
Containers have a new view property. If this is populated then the
container is a view container, otherwise it's a layout container. Like
before, this property is immutable for the life of the container.
Containers have both a `sway_container *parent` and
`sway_workspace *workspace`. As we use specific types now, parent cannot
point to a workspace so it'll be NULL for containers which are direct
children of the workspace. The workspace property is set for all
containers, except those which are hidden in the scratchpad as they have
no workspace.
In some cases we need to refer to workspaces in a container-like way.
For example, workspaces have layout and children, but when using
specific types this makes it difficult. Likewise, it's difficult for a
container to get its parent's layout when the parent could be another
container or a workspace. To make it easier, some helper functions have
been created: container_parent_layout and container_get_siblings.
container_remove_child has been renamed to container_detach and
container_replace_child has been renamed to container_replace.
`container_handle_fullscreen_reparent(con, old_parent)` has had the
old_parent removed. We now unfullscreen the workspace when detaching the
container, so this function is simplified and only needs one argument
now.
container_notify_subtree_changed has been renamed to
container_update_representation. This is more descriptive of its
purpose. I also wanted to be able to call it with whatever container was
changed rather than the container's parent, which makes bubbling up to
the workspace easier.
There are now state structs per node thing. ie. sway_output_state,
sway_workspace_state and sway_container_state.
The focus, move and layout commands have been completely refactored to
work with the specific types. I considered making these a separate PR,
but I'd be backporting my changes only to replace them again, and it's
easier just to test everything at once.
This changes the destroy functions to the following:
* output_begin_destroy
* output_destroy
* workspace_begin_destroy
* workspace_destroy
* container_begin_destroy
* container_destroy
* view_begin_destroy
* view_destroy
The terminology was `destroy` and `free`, and it has been changed to
`begin_destroy` and `destroy` respectively.
When the last output is disconnected, its workspaces will now be stashed
in the root. Upon connection of a new output they will be restored.
There is a new function `workspace_consider_destroy` which decides
whether the given workspace should be destroyed or not (ie. empty and
not visible).
Calling container_begin_destroy will no longer automatically reap the
parents. In some places we want to reap the parents and in some we
don't, so this is left to the caller.
container_reap_empty_recursive and container_reap_empty have been
combined into one function and it will recurse up the tree.
Previously we used a reparent event to detect when a view changes
parent, then sent an output enter/leave to the surfaces if needed. This
worked for tiling views but not floating views, as floating views can
intersect another output without changing parent.
The solution implemented for floating views also applies cleanly to
tiling views, so the previous method has been completely replaced and
the reparent event has been removed.
This introduces a new function container_discover_outputs. This function
compares the container's `current` position to the outputs, sends enter
and leave events as needed, and keeps track of which outputs it's
intersecting in a new `container->outputs` list. If it has entered a new
output with a different scale then the title and marks textures will
also be recreated at the new scale.
The function is called when a transaction applies. This is convenient as
it means we don't have to call it from various places.
There is imperfect rendering when a floating view overlaps two outputs
with different scales. It renders correctly for the most recently
entered output, but there is only one title texture so it renders
incorrectly on the old output.
Fixes#2482
Fixes#2364.
Suppose a view is 600px wide, and we tell it to resize to 601px during a
resize operation. We create a transaction, save the 600px buffer and
send the configure. This buffer is saved into the associated
instruction, and is rendered while we wait for the view to commit a
601px buffer.
Before the view commits the 601px buffer, suppose we tell it to resize
to 602px. The new transaction will also save the buffer, but it's still
the 600px buffer because we haven't received a new one yet.
Then suppose the view commits its original 601px buffer. This completes
the first transaction, so we apply the 601px width to the container.
There's still the second (now only) transaction remaining, so we render
the saved buffer from that. But this is still the 600px buffer, and we
believe it's 601px. Whoops.
The problem here is we can't stack buffers like this. So this commit
removes the saved buffer from the instructions, places it in the view
instead, and re-saves the latest buffer every time the view completes a
transaction and still has further pending transactions.
As saved buffers are now specific to views rather than instructions, the
functions for saving and removing the saved buffer have been moved to
view.c.
The calls to save and restore the buffer have been relocated to more
appropriate functions too, favouring transaction_commit and
transaction_apply rather than transaction_add_container and
transaction_destroy.
Fixes the render and container_at order for popups.
Fixes#2210
For rendering:
* render_view_surfaces has been renamed to render_view_toplevels
* render_view_toplevels now uses output_surface_for_each_surface (which
is now public), as that function uses wlr_surface_for_each_surface which
doesn't descend into popups
* Views now have a for_each_popup iterator, which is used by the
renderer to render the focused view's popups
* When rendering a popup, toplevels (xdg subsurfaces) of that popup are
also rendered
For sending frame done, the logic has been updated to match the
rendering logic:
* send_frame_done_container no longer descends into popups
* for_each_popup is used to send frame done to the focused view's popups
and their child toplevels
For container_at:
* floating_container_at is now static, which means it had to be moved
higher in the file.
* container_at now considers popups for the focused view before checking
containers.
* tiling_container_at has been introduced, so that it doesn't call
container_at recursively (it would check popups recursively if it did)
Things worth noting:
* When a fullscreen view unmaps, the check to unset fullscreen on the
workspace has been moved out of view_unmap and into container_destroy,
because containers can be fullscreen too
* The calls to `container_reap_empty_recursive(workspace)` have been
removed from `container_set_floating`. That function reaps upwards so it
wouldn't do anything. I'm probably the one who originally added it...
* My fix (b14bd1b0b1) for the tabbed child
crash has a side effect where when you close a floating container, focus
is not given to the tiled container again. I've removed my fix and
removed the call to `send_cursor_motion` from `seat_set_focus_warp`. We
should consider calling it from somewhere earlier in the call stack.
This allows to update the title even if the view doesn't commit.
This is useful e.g. when a terminal sets its toplevel title to
the currently running command and when the view isn't visible.
This removes the urgency stuff from the commit handler and puts it in a
new set_hints handler instead. This allows the xwayland surface to
become urgent without having to commit (which doesn't happen if it's on
an non-visible workspace).
Introduces a command to manually set urgency, as well as rendering of
urgent views, sending the IPC event, removing urgency after focused for
one second, and matching urgent views via criteria.
* The arrange_foo functions are now replaced with arrange_and_commit, or
with manually created transactions and arrange_windows x2.
* The arrange functions are now only called from the highest level
functions rather than from both high level and low level functions.
* Due to the previous point, view_set_fullscreen_raw and
view_set_fullscreen are both merged into one function again.
* Floating and fullscreen are now working with transactions.
The criteria struct now uses properties for each token type rather than
the list_t list of tokens. The reason for this is that different token
types have different data types: pcre, string and number to name a few.
This solution should be more flexible moving forward. A bonus of this is
that criteria is now easier to understand when looking at the struct
definition.
The criteria parser has been rewritten because the previous one didn't
support valueless pairs (eg. [class="foo" floating]).
Criteria now has types. Types at the moment are CT_COMMAND,
CT_ASSIGN_WORKSPACE and CT_ASSIGN_OUTPUT. i3 uses types as well.
Previously the assign command was creating a criteria with 'move to
workspace <name>' as its command, but this caused the window to appear
briefly on the focused workspace before being moved to the assigned
workspace. It now creates the view directly in the assigned workspace.
Each view will only execute a given criteria once. This is achieved by
storing a list of executed criteria in the view. This is the same
strategy used by i3.
Escaping now works properly. Previously you could do things like
[class="Fire\"fox"] and the stored value would be 'Fire\"fox', but it
should be (and now is) 'Fire"fox'.
The public functions in criteria.c are now all prefixed with criteria_.
Xwayland views now listen to the set_title, set_class and
set_window_type events and criteria will be run when these happen. XDG
shell has none of these events so it continues to update the title in
handle_commit.
Each view type's get_prop function has been split into get_string_prop
and get_int_prop because some properties like the X11 window ID and
window type are numeric.
The following new criteria tokens are now supported:
* id (X11 window ID)
* instance
* tiling
* workspace
This implements the title_format command, with a new placeholder %shell
which gets substituted with the view type (xwayland, xdg_shell_v6 or
wl_shell).
Example config:
for_window [title=".*"] title_format %title (class=%class instance=%instance shell=%shell)
Implements rendering of borders. Title text is still to do.
Implements the following configuration directives:
* client.focused
* client.focused_inactive
* client.unfocused
* client.urgent
* border
* default_border
Replaces arrange_windows() with arrange_root(), arrange_output(),
arrange_workspace() and arrange_children_of().
Also makes fullscreen views save and restore their dimensions, which
allows it to preserve any custom resize and is also a requirement for
floating views once they are implemented.
