Windows now learn when the mouse cursor leaves or enters them.
Use this to implement GWidget::{enter,leave}_event() and use that
to implement the CoolBar button effect. :^)
This patch also adds a Format concept to GraphicsBitmap. For now there are
only two formats: RGB32 and RGBA32. Windows with alpha channel have their
backing stores created in the RGBA32 format.
Use this to make Terminal windows semi-transparent for that comfy rice look.
There is one problem here, in that window compositing overdraw incurs
multiple passes of blending of the same pixels. This leads to a mismatch in
opacity which is obviously not good. I will work on this in a later patch.
The alpha blending is currently straight C++. It should be relatively easy
to optimize this using SSE instructions.
For now I'm just happy with the cute effect. :^)
To facilitate listening for action on arbitrary file descriptors,
I've added a GNotifier class. It's quite simple but very useful:
GNotifier notifier(fd, GNotifier::Read);
notifier.on_ready_to_read = [this] (GNotifier& fd) {
// read from fd or whatever else you like :^)
};
The callback will get invoked by GEventLoop when select() says we
have something to read on the fd.
My needs are really quite simple, so I'm just going to add what I need
as I go along. The first thing I needed was a simple box layout with
widgets being able to say whether they prefer fixed or fill for both
their vertical and horizontal sizes.
I also made a simple GStatusBar so FileManager can show how many bytes
worth of files are in the current directory.
This widget is far from finished, but it's off to a good start.
Also added a GResizeEvent and GWidget::resize_event() so that widgets
can react to being resized.
To start painting, call:
gui$get_window_backing_store()
Then finish up with:
gui$release_window_backing_store()
Process will retain the underlying GraphicsBitmap behind the scenes.
This fixes racing between the WindowServer and GUI clients.
This patch also adds a WSWindowLocker that is exactly what it sounds like.
