The test application copyClient creates a ShellSurface, maps it as
fullscreen, renders a green buffer and when it gets pointer focus it
sets "foo" in mimetype "text/plain" into the selection.
This test application "testRenderingServer" is able to start a
Wayland server and uses a QWidget to render the "scene". It manages
ShellSurfaces and renders them on the QWidget in a very static way.
Furthermore input events (key, pointer, wheel) are forwarded to the
top most Surface.
This test server is able to support kwin_wayland as a client, but
weston's test application in latest release fail due to missing
xdg_shell support.
Qt::MouseButton is mapped to the linux buttons. The mapping does
not match the mapping used in QtWayland module [1] as that seems
to be incorrect to me. E.g. Qt::BackButton is not mapped to BTN_BACK.

Proof-of-concept code illustrating how to start a Wayland server
before creating the QGuiApplication and also starting an Xwayland
server before creating the QGuiApplication. Thus the QGuiApplication
is able to connect to the Xwayland server started in the same
application.
Event dispatching in Display requires a QSocketNotifier which
requires the QCoreApplication to be created. This requirement renders
it impossible to create the server before the QCoreApplication is
created. But there are use cases which need this:
Let's assume we want to integrate a wayland server into an existing
X11 dependent application which uses QApplication and enforces the
xcb plugin. This means said application requires that an X Server is
up and running before the QApplication is created. If we want said
application to connect to an Xwayland server we need to be able to
create the Wayland server AND the Xwayland server before creating
the QApplication.
The solution is to only create the socket notifier if the
QCoreApplication exists. For the case that it doesn't exist an
additional method is added which needs to be called once the
QCoreApplication got created. In addition a manual event dispatch
method is added which allows to block for events when we don't
have a QSocketNotifier set up yet.
Only selection part is implemented, drag'n'drop still needs to be
implemented.
Unit test is not properly testing whether the data can be transferred.
This needs some better architecture to have multiple processes which
perform the source and target part.
This implements the subcompositor and subsurface protocol on both
Client and Server side.
Client:
New classes SubCompositor and SubSurface. The SubCompositor can be
created through the Registry and creates the SubSurface which is
bound to a Surface and has a parent Surface. The SubSurface class
provides convenient wrappers for all calls exposed in the
wl_subsurface interface.
Server:
New classes SubCompositorInterface and SubSurfaceInterface. Support
for all commands is added, though the API probably still can need
some fine tuning. The synchronized vs. desynchronized behavior is
not yet exposed in the API. This could also be delegated towards
the user of the library.
This makes it possible to install and then use it. Installation is still
commented since we can't give enough stability guarantees for now.
In detail:
- do not actually install headers
- generate the export header into Wayland/Server
- include it from there

Emitted when the Wayland display is done flushing the initial interface
callbacks, announcing wl_display properties. This can be used to compress
events. Note that this signal is emitted only after announcing interfaces,
such as outputs, but not after receiving callbacks of interface properties,
such as the output's geometry, modes, etc..
This signal is emitted from the wl_display_sync callback.

The test started to fail on my system without changing anything. I
assume my system got an update to latest wayland version and it
looks like the registry doesn't announce anything if nothing is
registered. So now our display at least creates the Shm interface.
In addition the test case is slightly improved with a few smaller
changes added during the debug session.
The EventQueue is a wrapper for wl_event_queue. The usage is for the
case that the connection is in a different thread.
The EventQueue needs to be added to the Registry before Registry::create
is invoked. This ensures that the Registry gets added to the EventQueue
and all objects created by the Registry (and further down the tree)
will be added to the same EventQueue.
The auto-tests which already used a wl_event_queue are transited to the
EventQueue class. That's also the reason why there is no dedicated
unit test: the new code is sufficiently tested by the existing tests.
This makes the API more consistent and allows to properly cleanup
Keyboard and Pointer if the connection dies. Like with Shell and
ShellSurface signals are emitted from Seat when the interface is
going to be released or destroyed. These are connected to the
methods of the created Pointer and Keyboard.
The Buffers are exclusively hold by ShmPool. The user of a Buffer is not
supposed to delete it as a no longer used Buffer should be reused by the
ShmPool.
To make it obvious that the ownership of the pointer is not passed to the
user the return type is changed to QWeakPointer. This also allows the
ShmPool to destroy Buffers as needed.
The unit test found a few problems which are now addressed
* getBuffer did not check the format when reusing a buffer
* creatBuffer used the wrong method on QSize to check whether it is empty
* destroy didn't call destroy on the Buffer. This is now added by moving
the Buffer::Private in a dedicated header which can also be included
from the ShmPool
Ensure that we do not connect to a version which our client library
does not support. If we would allow higher versions we would run the
risk that the wayland library calls into not existing callbacks.
It also adds a
static SurfaceInterface *get(wl_resource*)
to SurfaceInterface which can find the SurfaceInterface for the
given wl_resource. This is needed for ShellSurfaceInterface which
can no longer just cast the wayland user data.
