Due to being a compositor, kwin has to conform to some certain
interfaces. It means a lot of virtual functions and function tables to
integrate with C APIs. Naturally, we not always want to use every
argument in such functions.
Since we get -Wunused-parameter from -Wall, we have to plumb those
unused arguments in order to suppress compiler warnings at the moment.
However, I don't think that extra work is worth it. We cannot change or
alter prototypes in any way to fix the warning the desired way. Q_UNUSED
and similar macros are not good indicators of whether an argument is
used too, we tend to overlook putting or removing those macros. I've
also noticed that Q_UNUSED are not used to guide us with the removal no
longer needed parameters.
Therefore, I think it's worth adding -Wno-unused-parameter compiler
option to stop the compiler producing warnings about unused parameters.
It changes nothing except that we don't need to put Q_UNUSED anymore,
which can be really cumbersome sometimes. Note that it doesn't affect
unused variables, you'll still get a -Wunused-variable compiler warning
if a variable is unused.
Currently, kwin will continue matching dnd actions after a drop. This is
mainly needed in order to make "ask" action work.
However, it appears like there are clients in the wild that update offer
actions after receiving wl_data_source.dnd_drop_performed and wl_data_device.drop
events.
One could argue that's a client bug, and perhaps it is, but the spec is
vague about that. In meanwhile, let's make sure that dnd action matching
is active after drop only when the selected data source action is "ask."
This makes KWin switch to in-tree copy of KWaylandServer codebase.
KWaylandServer namespace has been left as is. It will be addressed later
by renaming classes in order to fit in the KWin namespace.
In a recent refactor a guard seemingly in the wrong place on
SeatInterface was moved into AbstractDataSource, as typically that's
where we guard.
However it turns out the original code was correct, we want to send
cancel for all clipboard cancels, but for D&D it's version dependent.
This class introduces a new method to astract that from seat.
A dataDevice has a request to start a drag with multiple parameters.
As kwayland's goal is to turn an event-driven API into a property cache API we
store this data. This patch moves that storage to the Seat as properties of the
active drag, rather than a property of the data device that happened to
initialise it.
This both helps keep a lot of other logic together, but also allows us to expose
a public startDrag method that can be invoked from Kwin's internal surfaces or
xwayland.
Any properties in DataDevice now relate to data being dropped on the device.
In plasma code, it's more common to see `/** ... */` doxygen comments
rather than `/** ... **/`.
This change fixes up doxygen comment terminators to prevent inconsistency
issues.
This was done mostly because I wanted to get rid of the Resource
dependency in AbstractDataSource so I can make our xwl bridge direct,
but this also fixes up some issues with object lifespan present in the
previous version and keeps all our clipboard code in-line.
Summary:
Clipboard managers and middle click paste are new protocols.
We want to be able to copy from a clipboard manager to a regular
clipboard and vice versa without duplicating loads of code.
If we support kliper's "syncronise contents of the clipboard and
selection" inside the compositor that would become an unmanageable amount
of combinations.
It also potentially allows the idea of our XWayland bridge not being a
wayland client and simplifying that code.
