The CodeView format introduces some advantages to our Windows build:
- It is way smaller than DWARF, reducing the .exe installer. With
the strip of COFF symbols too, the installation is 120MB smaller.
- Can be uploaded as .appxsym to be used on demand by MSIX (in thesis)
- Works better with DIA and DbgHelp debuggers like WinDbg and DrMingW,
respectively. LLDB also works by using LLDB_USE_NATIVE_PDB_READER=1
Context: that was not working before because DrMingw and LLDB seems to
only search for the build-time .pdb path in '.buildid' section of bins.
See: https://github.com/jrfonseca/drmingw/issues/91 and
https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/125355. So, we will set
_NT_SYMBOL_PATH at least for $PREFIX/bin for now as workaround.
For plug-in writers, here is how to replace it:
- (plug-in-c-astretch RUN-NONINTERACTIVE img drawable)
+ (gimp-drawable-merge-new-filter drawable "gegl:stretch-contrast" 0 LAYER-MODE-REPLACE 1.0 "keep-colors" FALSE)
A few functions were added, but the main one is
gimp_drawable_get_filters() to request the list of filters applied
non-destructively on a drawable. We can't do much with these for the
time being, but this will come.
WIP.
Several types functions were using the wording "float" historically to
mean double-precision, e.g. the float array type (which was in fact a
double array). Or the scanner function gimp_scanner_parse_float() was in
fact returning a double value. What if we wanted someday to actually add
float (usually this naming means in C the single-precision IEEE 754
floating point representation) support? How would we name this?
Now technically it's not entirely wrong (a double is still a floating
point). So I've been wondering if that is because maybe we never planned
to have float and double precision may be good enough for all usage in a
plug-in API (which doesn't have to be as generic so the higher precision
is enough)? But how can we be sure? Also we already had some functions
using the wording double (e.g. gimp_procedure_add_double_argument()), so
let's just go the safe route and use the accurate wording.
The additional change in PDB is internal, but there too, I was also
finding very confusing that we were naming double-precision float as
'float' type. So I took the opportunity to update this. It doesn't
change any signature.
In fact the whole commit doesn't change any type or code logic, only
naming, except for one bug fix in the middle which I encountered while
renaming: in gimp_scanner_parse_deprecated_color(), I discovered a
hidden bug in scanning (color-hsv*) values, which was mistakenly using a
double type for an array of float.
… PDB type.
This is a first step for #7369. Clearly our GimpObjectArray was meant to
be used with C arrays, hence the wrapper function
gimp_value_set_object_array() which was taking a C array and actually
creating and setting a GimpObjectArray.
This is why our new type is actually a C array aliased as a boxed type
and containing its own size (thanks to NULL-termination).
Eventually GimpCoreObjectArray is meant to replace GimpObjectArray.
The only issue is that such a type does not allow NULL as a valid
element in such an array, but fact is that I don't think we currently
have any use case where this matters. If ever such a case arise in the
future, we may introduce back GimpObjectArray.
In this first commit, I replaced all itemarray PDB types with a new
drawablearray using this new boxed type when relevant.
Since we consider it private, yet it's still needed in libgimp and app,
let's at least put it in a private header because there is no need for
people to try it out.
I'm also editing a bit the annotations for gimp_main() and GIMP_MAIN().
This fixes all our GObject Introspection issues with GimpUnit which was
both an enum and an int-derived type of user-defined units *completing*
the enum values. GIR clearly didn't like this!
Now GimpUnit is a proper class and units are unique objects, allowing to
compare them with an identity test (i.e. `unit == gimp_unit_pixel ()`
tells us if unit is the pixel unit or not), which makes it easy to use,
just like with int, yet adding also methods, making for nicer
introspected API.
As an aside, this also fixes#10738, by having all the built-in units
retrievable even if libgimpbase had not been properly initialized with
gimp_base_init().
I haven't checked in details how GIR works to introspect, but it looks
like it loads the library to inspect and runs functions, hence
triggering some CRITICALS because virtual methods (supposed to be
initialized with gimp_base_init() run by libgimp) are not set. This new
code won't trigger any critical because the vtable method are now not
necessary, at least for all built-in units.
Note that GimpUnit is still in libgimpbase. It could have been moved to
libgimp in order to avoid any virtual method table (since we need to
keep core and libgimp side's units in sync, PDB is required), but too
many libgimpwidgets widgets were already using GimpUnit. And technically
most of GimpUnit logic doesn't require PDB (only the creation/sync
part). This is one of the reasons why user-created GimpUnit list is
handled and stored differently from other types of objects.
Globally this simplifies the code a lot too and we don't need separate
implementations of various utils for core and libgimp, which means less
prone to errors.
This commit renames the GimpVectors
object to GimpPath in both app/core and
in libgimp. It also renames the files
to gimppath.[ch] and updates the relevant
build and translation files.
There are still outstanding gimp_vectors_* ()
functions on the app side that need to be renamed
in a subsequent commit.
If the type is not registered, g_type_from_name() is not able to find
the GType from the type name.
Fixes:
> gimp_gp_param_to_value: type name GimpGroupLayer is not registered
Also add a bit more type handling code.
- Replaces GimpRGB in Channel Dialog
with gdouble array, as was done in
channel_options_color_changed ()
- Replace %ld with G_GSIZE_FORMAT
in libgimp checkboard color message to
fix warning in Windows build
- Set file-gih documentation text as
translatable.
We pass 2 GeglColor through the wire now. Since it is passed very early
(when sharing the configuration), I had some issues with initialization
order of GEGL, and in particular when calling gegl_init() before
gegl_config() inside _gimp_config(), I had a bunch of such criticals:
> Plugin script-fu: GLib-GObject: CRITICAL: Two different plugins tried to register 'GeglOpPlugIn-transform-core'
Anyway in the end, I store the passed colors as raw bytes and strings in
the GPConfig object, and re-construct the GeglColor last minute in
_gimp_config().
MINGW64
- uses 0x601 as value for _WIN32_WINNT. No need for us to define
it to that value or even lower values in some places.
This also gets rid of: warning: "_WIN32_WINNT" redefined
- has 0x0502 for WINVER, so get rid of us setting it to 0x0500 in
gimp-app-test-utils.h. It also seems that the need to use G_OS_WIN32
has disappeared here.
- DIRECTINPUT_VERSION is 0x0800, no need for us to set it to that value.
- AI_ADDRCONFIG was apparently missing from the MINGW headers in the
past, but not anymore.
We cannot be 100% sure generically (i.e. for all possible bindings available
with GObject Introspection) if bindings add their own reference to objects or
not. Clearly we have cases when they always do (Lua, Javascript), cases when
they do only in certain conditions (global Python variables) and cases when they
don't (Vala). What we know for sure is that in these script languages,
developers don't manually manage memory anyway. So the additional reference is
not their fact.
So let's just maintain a list of automatic memory managed binding languages,
among the few we officially support (i.e. the ones for which we have working
test plug-ins) and verify by executable extension if the plug-in is written in
one of these.
Both keeping a manually-updated list and verifying by extension are not so
pretty solution, but for now it will do.
from plug-in
I get a critical error when calling gimp_text_layer_new and the function
doesn't return a GimpTextLayer:
(file-psd:47120): LibGimp-CRITICAL **: 16:00:59.035:
gimp_gp_param_to_value: type name GimpTextLayer is not registered
Adding the above line to libgimp/gimp.c fixes the problem.
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).

On Windows fopen () is limited to the current codepage,
GLib's g_fopen () instead accepts full UTF-8 by calling
_wfopen () internally (or a similar wide-char CRT routine).
Only libgimpui depends on GTK+, display servers and other GUI-related
dependencies. There was a problematic include added in commit 0b56aa0d13 for
macOS, but the needed code (testing the macro GDK_WINDOWING_QUARTZ to use some
[NSApp activateIgnoringOtherApps:YES] API) doesn't seem to be present anymore in
there, so I think that removing this include (replace by including GLib for
other calls) should work fine. Of course, we'll know it when the separate CI
will test a macOS build as we still don't have in-Gitlab macOS jobs. :-/
- Some coding style fixes (alignment, etc.).
- Adding missing "Since: 3.0" annotations. We are still wondering
whether this should go in 2.10, in which case, it would become
"Since: 2.10.32" annotations. See discussion in !274.
- Changing gimp_checks_get_colors() signature: merge the 4 color
arguments into 2 (inout) arguments which seems a bit nicer in C,
whereas binding handles such arguments correctly. The other
alternative would have been to at least change the order to have out
arguments in the end.
I also hesitated to get another API in libgimp, which would have been
config-aware (just returning the 2 check colors, depending on user-set
Preferences), then having GimpPreviewArea handling 2 colors (without a
GimpCheckType input). But actually, doing this, we'd remove the nice
menu popup where one could choose a generic check type (not everyone
wants to play with specific non-gray colors) in Gimp*Preview widgets.
So in the end, I left this whole thing as-is.
Instead I document the function with code sample to initialize
properly the GimpPreviewArea (since libgimpwidgets/ are independent
with no knowledge of the core config) in order to respect user
preferences.
- Hide the color properties in gimp_preview_area_menu_new() because
anyway gimp_preview_area_menu_new() does not support GimpRGB
properties right now (so all we get are warnings). It's still possible
to select custom colors on GimpPreviewArea, simply we are stuck at the
ones set in Preferences globally for now (unless a plug-in creates
custom GUI to set these).

GLib has a specific type of NULL-terminated string arrays:
`G_TYPE_STRV`, which is the `GType` of `char**` aka `GStrv`.
By using this type, we can avoid having a `GimpStringArray` which is a
bit cumbersome to use for both the C API, as well as bindings. By using
`GStrv`, we allow other languages to pass on string lists as they are
used to, while the bindings will make sure to do the right thing.

Saving a thumbnail is closely related to the other metadata preferences,
but so far this was the only one that didn't have a preference for a
default user value.
This commit adds a preference in the metadata section where a user can
select whether thumbnail saving is enabled by default or not.
It isn't being used by any plug-in or any code in GIMP at all even.
Let's get rid of it while we can still break API, so we can cut down on
all the complexity of the gimp-param stuff a bit.
There were still a few references to functions which have been removed
from GIMP 3 (because they were deprecated in previous versions), which I
found as I was doing an inventory of removed functions.
export it to libgimp via GPConfig and add new API gimp_export_comment().
Bump the protocol version and improve variable names in both GPConfig
and libgimp/gimp.c.
In libgimp/gimp.c: gimp_main() make sure that GIMP_TYPE_OBJECT_ARRAY
and GIMP_TYPE_PARAM_OBJECT_ARRAY are known to the type system and can
be looked up by name.
Break reference cycles between the objects and the procedures they
keep by moving procedure destruction to dispose() and calling
g_object_run_dispose() before unrefing PLUG_IN and PDB in gimp.c.
Also some formatting and "Since: 3.0" annotation .
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/.
