Patch from a series of patches to rename EAPI symbols to specific
library DSOs.
EAPI was designed to be able to pass
```__attribute__ ((visibility ("default")))``` for symbols with
GCC, which would mean that even if -fvisibility=hidden was used
when compiling the library, the needed symbols would get exported.
MSVC __almost__ works like GCC (or mingw) in which you can
declare everything as export and it will just work (slower, but
it will work). But there's a caveat: global variables will not
work the same way for MSVC, but works for mingw and GCC.
For global variables (as opposed to functions), MSVC requires
correct DSO visibility for MSVC: instead of declaring a symbol as
export for everything, you need to declare it as import when
importing from another DSO and export when defining it locally.
With current EAPI definitions, we get the following example
working in mingw and MSVC (observe it doesn't define any global
variables as exported symbols).
Example 1:
dll1:
```
EAPI void foo(void);
EAPI void bar()
{
foo();
}
```
dll2:
```
EAPI void foo()
{
printf ("foo\n");
}
```
This works fine with API defined as __declspec(dllexport) in both
cases and for gcc defining as
```__atttribute__((visibility("default")))```.
However, the following:
Example 2:
dll1:
```
EAPI extern int foo;
EAPI void foobar(void);
EAPI void bar()
{
foo = 5;
foobar();
}
```
dll2:
```
EAPI int foo = 0;
EAPI void foobar()
{
printf ("foo %d\n", foo);
}
```
This will work on mingw but will not work for MSVC. And that's why
EAPI is the only solution that worked for MSVC.

we really should have data inside the loop object, so begin moving it
one small thing at a time. this is the basics that will allow multiple
efl loops. make an eo efl object and class for fd handlers that is efl loop
bound make fd handlers really bound to their parent loop and not global as
well as have a nice class/obj. create an message queue per loop and
put legacy ecore events on top of it... and a lot more.
this is not 100% done, but it's a lot of the core and groundwork.
various ecore_timer_add(), ecore_diler_add() etc. need changes.
The following still need doing:
ecore_timer (internal usage for sure)
ecore_idler (internal usage for sure)
ecore_idle_enterer
ecore_idle_exiter
ecore_pollers? (is the new efl loop stuff ok?)
ecore_exe (fork/spawn from any thread and track exe from that thread?)
ecore_signal code
ecore_throttle (should we have a single global too? we have per loop)
ecore_app ? (should every loop be given its own argv/argc?)
Lots of internal ecore code uses/calls these legacy calls and we
should have efl loop replacements and/or use the ones we have
The following will bedifferently designed for loop to loop
control/messaging/ipc:
ecore_thread
ecore_pipe
I just ran my script (email to follow) to migrate all of the EFL
automatically. This commit is *only* the automatic conversion, so it can
be easily reverted and re-run.
This is another cleanup in perparation for the Eo stable release.
This is no longer needed thanks to the proper error reporting with
eo_constructor()'s new return value.
The finalizer change cleans it up a bit so it catches more cases/issues.
This also means that the finalizer cleans up the object in all cases,
and not only some.
@feature.
Before this change eo_add() used to create an object with 1 ref, and if
the object had a parent, a second ref.
Now, eo_add() always returns an object with 1 ref, and eo_add_ref()
preserves the old behaviour (for bindings).
eo_unref now un-parents if refcount is 0, and eo_del() is an alias for
eo_unref (will change to be a way to ensure an object is dead and goes
to zombie-land even if still refed).
This reverts commit 1714fe93f4.
We actually want this type, it makes things clearer.
