Summary:
For now, how to check whether a widget is legacy or not
is to check flags in private data or static flag, which is set
during elm_legacy_add.
If Efl.Ui.Legacy interface is added, it can be easilly checked
by efl_isa(obj, EFL_UI_LEGACY_INTERFACE)

Also prefix with widget.
I want to rename this as child rather than sub. It's inconsistent with
the other parent/child hierarchies. Anyway the various hierarchies are
confusing, so let's keep this name :)
Ref T5363
Some names have not been changed, hopefully making a distinction
between legacy APIs and internal code (elm_layout_blah) and valid EO
usages.
This means many internal functions are still elm_layout_ as their
sole purpose is to support the legacy API.
Ref T5315
elm_layout_sizing_eval() marks an object as requiring recalc.
Unfortunately, it's been massively abused by various widgets into
actually doing the calc, or the min calc. So we end up with one API
that has 3 different definitions depending on the widget type:
1. Mark as requiring recalc (correct, respects doc, elm_layout)
2. Calculate min size and other size hints
3. Actually do some geometry modification
I believe we need to clarify these 3 requirements into 3 very clear
and specific APIs in elementary. Right now we have similar functions
in evas for 1 (evas_object_smart_changed) and 3 (smart_calculate).
But their exact definition also isn't necessarily what we want for
elementary.
Another clear problem is that layout_eval does not do any calculation
(in theory), so the "eval" word is a bit of a stretch here.
Once we're sure about the exact API we want, we can add this back to
EO and make it work across our EO widgets. For now let's just keep
the legacy API, and its EO overrides, as is.
Ref T5315
Now you can't use the same syntax as you would for a method to
implement a property as whole, instead you need to specify the
getter and/or setter explicitly. This is to allow parent classes
to expand their properties without altering behavior of the child
classes.
This is an override of efl_gfx_size_set. Same as before, the
order of operations matter so it is possible that a corner
case will break. In particular, legacy code was:
- intercept
- smart resize (do stuff), super, super, super
- evas object resize
The new code is more like:
- intercept
- super, super, super, evas object resize
- do stuff
But unfortunately this broke elm_widget (read: all widgets) as
the internal resize was done before the object resize. So,
inside the resize event cb, the resize_obj size would not match
the smart object size. >_<
This is an override of efl_gfx_position_set.
As for the other patches, I hope I didn't break anything.
A problem likely to happen is that the super call was inserted
too early or too late in the call flow. For instance:
_myclass_position_set(obj, x, y) {
position_set(super(obj), x, y);
position_get(obj, &prevx, &prevy);
do_something_with_delta_xy();
}
The above code flow is obvisouly wrong, but may have crept in this
patch (such a bug sneaked in inside smart object, breaking
everything at first).
These should be just overrides of Efl.Gfx.visible.set. Many
widgets were handling smart show() and hide() manually, which
means this patch is quite large.
Hopefully this doesn't break anything, obviously. But here are
some widgets known to be problematic, as the old code flow was
really strange (sometimes not calling the efl_super function):
- window
- notify
This touches Edje and also Elementary where part names are used.
This commit blew up in size since now all content part APIs
(get, set, unset) require to use Efl.Part instead.
This is a big refactoring commit, but no logic should
have been changed. Fingers crossed.
Complex types (i.e. list, array, hash, accessor etc.) now do not require
pointers with them anymore (the pointer is implied) and the same goes for
class handles. Eolian now explicitly disallows creating pointers to these
as well. This is the first part of the work to remove pointers from Eolian
completely, with the goal of simplifying the DSL (higher level) and therefore
making it easier for bindings (as well as easier API usage).
@feature
Previously events used to use class name as a prefix and ignored eo_prefix
when specified. This is no longer the case. Events follow eo_prefix by default
now. In order to get around this for classes where this is undesirable, a new
field event_prefix was added which takes priority over eo_prefix. If neither
is specified, class name is used like previously.
@feature
This removes Efl.Pack_Named which had a terrible name,
removes Elm.Container which should have been renamed
Efl.Ui.Container anyway, and introduces an interface
Efl.Container instead.
The hierarchy tree is now changed as objects don't inherit
from Efl.Container (it's an interface, not a regular class)
but only implement it. Obviously it is very easy to
reintroduce an Efl.Ui.Container parent class if we need it,
but I guess it should have some actual logic. It's basically
part of what Elm.Widget already does.
Some function names have been modified to look better in C
with the efl_content prefix.
@feature
This removes the conflicts between the different parents and also
indicates that this is to be used internally by widgets and should
not be confused with the normal user visible parent.
It is an internal attribute that should not be used by people
not implementing widgets. Marking it as protected signifies it
as such.
