- add preview_get() and description_get(), breaking ABI badly.
- add abi_version field to be fileld with EDJE_EXTERNAL_TYPE_ABI_VERSION
and checked with edje_external_type_abi_version_get()
SVN revision: 44135
This is the recommended way to register a batch of types, it will not
do check (hash lookup) before adding and keys are added as "direct"
(not copied), thus lighter on memory.

Since we are on a freeze, the patch goes on updated to current svn, but without changing its API. After the freeze some things will be added, and some will change :)

* change behavior of edje_shutdown() to make it more standard
* move eet_shutdown()
the order still seems strange. I don't know if i can freely move
the init/shutdown functions

will be created. The logic is the following:
* if the environment variable TMPDIR is set, use its value
* if it is not set, take the directory passed with the
-td option (see edje_cc help)
* otherwise on Windows use a temporary dir and on other
platform, use /tmp

This concerns Ticket #109: Add Lua support for Edje
It adds Lua as scripting facility to Edje, letting Embryo untouched.
It should be easier to use and be more flexible than Embryo, imho ;-)
---
The patch
---
Lua 5.1 is used in sandboxed mode. Lua byte code is not
platform/architecture independent, Lua code is saved as text in the Edje
container and parsed at load time, therefore.
The patch goes in two directions
1) Analogous to Embryo for scripting logic, messaging and custom states.
The same things are implemented as in Embryo:
- messaging from and to C
- manual creation of timers, animators, pollers for custom events /
animations
- manual manipulation of Edje parts by means of the public
edje_object_part_* and internal functions and custom states
-> those routines are actually implemented as Lua
bindings to
functions in Edje.h and Ecore.h
-> the implementation is done in an object oriented way, so that the
interface gives the feel of an object description language, pretty
similar to EDC itself
-> combining custom states and custom animators allows
for fancy
animations and transitions, e.g circular/spline translations or
complex/conditional transitions, etc.
-> this is just the same as Embryo does, but implemented in Lua, so
nothing new here, actually
2) Dynamic object creation and manipulation
- this interface stems from the 'script_only' objects in
Edje. Those
objects are a kind of scriptable Edje counterparts to Evas_Smart
objects. The infrastructure for Embryo is already there, but has
never been used
- I added this in Lua and added some first bindings to
experiment
with
- I thought it would be useful to allow for a limited dynamic
creation of ui parts
- We can create instances of groups from within the same Edje
container and use them just like the main Edje object as
stated in
1)
- And there are some stand-alone bindings to dynamically create
Evas_Image, Evas_Table, Evas_Line, Evas_Polygon as examples
-> this may be useful to decouple the program from the ui
even more,
to be able to do things that have to be done in the program itself
atm, but actually belong to the user interface, but need dynamic
creation of objects or complex interactions
-> those objects are manipulated manually with Lua bindings
to the
corresponding edje_object_* and evas_object_* functions
---
Discussion points
---
Both stuff in 1) & 2) is functioning, but needs testing, feedback,
improvements, ...
Stuff in 1) can already fully replace Embryo scripting with Lua
scripting. There still is space for improvements/additions, though.
Of the stuff in 2), I think it may only make sense to add the dynamic
creation of groups defined in the same Edje container. Dynamic creation
of other Evas_Objects makes not much sense, as most of them can already
be used as Edje parts and be manipulated with custom states (apart from
polygons and lines) and it would make the whole theming potentially more
programing-like and much more susceptible for errors, etc.
Would this be useful, or drop it all?
The scripting should be there just for logic, conditionals, custom
states and animations, not for a whole dynamic canvas, imho.
There is a patch around with EXTERNAL Edje parts. Seems to be a better,
faster, more secure way to extend Edje with custom objects.
There would be the possibility of precompiling Lua code at compile time
(edje_cc) for faster loading, but we would have to patch and run our own
Lua version.
The Lua parser is pretty fast, though, and using
byte-converted/endianness-swapped byte-code does only pay off for Lua
chunks of some kilo lines.
Byte code also occupies much more space than text in the final Edje
container, as it includes debug symbols.
---
Cedric and Vincent told me, that the plan was to replace Embryo totally
by Lua before the official release of Edje at the end of the year? So it
would make sense to bring Lua to svn soon and look how it fits in, test,
debug, adapt it further to the themers needs, decide on its final shape,
GATHER SOME PEOPLE TO HELP ;-)

The Lua enhanced Edje is in sync with svn and can be get directly here
git clone git://repo.or.cz/edje_lua.git
cd edje_lua
git checkout -b lua_patch origin/lua_patch
or apply the attached patch
There are also some examples to show the usage of the things
mentioned
above
- showcase.edj: shows usage of custom animators, custom states,
messaging and the script_only object
- test.edj: test cases of script usage and bindings (custom states,
custom transitions, tween_states, animators, timers,
object_parts),
but most of it are experimental script_only objects
http://didgmo.sourceforge.net/showcase.edjhttp://didgmo.sourceforge.net/test.edj
The source of showcase.edc is attached, too, to just have a glimpse at
Lua inside of EDC

So, what do you guys think?
Thanks and sry for the looong mail, hehe ;-)

- Edje_Real_Part use less memory.
- Edje_Real_Part and Edje_Real_Part_State now use a mempool.
- When both param1 and param2 are the same, only recalc param1.
- Don't compute Edje_Real_Part more than one time per edje_recalc_do.
SVN revision: 41771
if sfont=something was given to _edje_text_class_font_get(), sfont
might be untouched there and old pointer was being freed, resulting in
double free. So make sure we're using the correct pointer there.
SVN revision: 41714
Note: A bug spotted in layout of box is the reason of this revert. From
my understanding, layout require some property on the object to be
correctly set. This is done during edje_recalc_single on the part. The
layout fonction of evas would be called just after the resize. If we
didn't do an edje_recalc_do, but an edje_recalc, the call to
edje_recalc_single will be delayed and the layout property will not be
set correctly.
SVN revision: 41698
WARNING: THIS CAN CAUSE RENDERING GLITCH AND OTHER WEIRD BEHAVIOUR WITH
YOUR EDJE FILE. PLEASE REPORT ANY ALIEN STUFF.
Note: This patch cache the result of _edje_part_recalc_single, until
any relative part are moved, the object is resized or some property
are changed (like during text set or color class set).
Note: Be carefull when you call edje_object_size_min_restricted_calc,
it's really an inderect heavy user of _edje_part_recalc_single and
I wasn't able to bring it down.
Note: This patch use more RAM, around 480 bytes per Edje state, so I
don't recommand using it on a Desktop with a lot of CPU power.
SVN revision: 41663
Note: It doesn't really impact edje memory foot print yet. But in
the plan to do a computation cache inside edje, this structure
will be used a lot (I am planning to do this feature at some point,
but no ETA yet, and be reassured it will be optionnal so we can
choose between CPU load or memory load).
Note: As I was looking for similar area of improvements,
Edje_Part_Description could really use an union to reduce it's size,
but as we load this structure directly from an Eet file, we need
union in Eet first. And this should be part of a comming Edje file
format break.
SVN revision: 41652
Today signals emitted inside GROUP sub-parts are delivered to parent
group as "part-name:original-source". This is good and allow edje
groups to be reused. But no counter part to send events to inside
sub-groups existed.
This patch allows one to send a signal "signal" to inside a part
"part" that is of type GROUP by prepending signal emission with part name:
emission: "part:signal"
source: "source"
this is the same as:
o = edje_object_part_swallow_get(ed);
edje_object_signal_emit(o, "signal", "source");
but can be done all in themes, no need to go to application c/c++/python.
Based on patch by Pieter, see mail list.

these two new calls will escape the unescaped text if required, will
unescape when get is called.
Also I fixed edje_object_part_text_get() on non-editable TEXTBLOCK,
now it will return the text with markup.
SVN revision: 40066
Often requested for animations that want to grow or shrink text
quickly. This is a faster alternative to using geometry with rel1/rel2
and "text.fit: 1 1;" since it does not need to figure out which size
fits better into that object.
I tested and it does not seem to introduce any regression. Also
checked with scale and text_class variations.
SVN revision: 38958
as reported, elicity triggers an infinite loop by calling
edje_object_part_geometry_get(), which in turns calls
_edje_recalc_do() which in turns calls the elicit code that requests
edje_object_part_geometry_get() and since it's still marked as
"dirty", it enters the loop...
the real fix is just the move of ed->dirty = 0; before calling
recalcs, but I also unmarked object as need_recalculate so we can even
avoid requesting object to recalculate from evas.
SVN revision: 38139
destroyed by _edje_cache_coll_unref. So moving the call to _edje_cache_coll_unref
after the last use of Edje_Real_Part should be better.
SVN revision: 38020
* Fix buffer overflow with EDJE_PROGRAM_CACHE (not tested since I don't use it).
* break_prog should always unset walking_callbacks and do after-tasks.
* Fix list walking! ouch!!!
SVN revision: 37944
This makes use of new Evas_Smart_Class calculate() callback to
postpone calculations until render time, possible saving lots of
calculations to happen.
It is another try, with Cedric's changes to force recalculations when
requried (ie: just before doing some edje_object_*_get()), let's see
if this one solve found issues.
SVN revision: 37620
solution, but the fastest to implement without breaking edje file format.
So now, when a callback or a program don't use globbing charactere (*, ?,
[] and \), the match are put in a little rbtree instead of the big automate
matrix.
This patch could potentially break edje user, if you experience anything
strange with your edje file, please report.
SVN revision: 37577
* configure.ac re-organisation
* don't compile edje binaries on windows ce
* add doc rule to build documentation (hence gendo is removed,
Doxyfile is moved to doc/ and edje.c.in is renamed doc/edje.dox.in)
Next commit will fix completely the documentation
* fix edje.pc.in
SVN revision: 37137
This means that file created with the editor can now be decompiled!!
But make attention because not every feature of edje is supported.
This means that (if you modify an existing file) you will lost some feature
while saving; like MACRO, inherit values, comments in the EDC code and some
other smallies.
But if you have created the file with the editor all will be edje_decc well.
