When using the legacy API (and in fact also with the EO API) to
listen to mouse events (move, in, out...) on a window instead
of an actual evas object, some information was missing:
- buttons (bitmask of pressed buttons)
- prev.x/y (previous position)
This is because Evas had not handled the event yet at this
point, it was coming directly from ecore_evas with incomplete
information. This patch involves evas a little bit earlier, and
also fixes evas_events_legacy.c to have consistent values for
cur/prev canvas/ouput coordinates. See also 890a91785 and
484dae76e6. Those commits were making the pointer coord
a seat-based property (instead of canvas-based) but the event
should already have those proper values before converting to
a legacy struct. This patch restores the meaning of the DUP
macros, as I observed 4 different coordinates from the app side
(instead of just 2: prev and cur).
Thanks to Andy for reporting the original issue on the ML!
Test scenario:
elementary_test -to "ExtScroller"
Try and modify a slider's value with the mouse wheel. Bad things
were happenning, as the flag ON_HOLD was not properly propagated
from the slider to the scroller. This is because the legacy
event_info structure inside the eo event info was not updated
with the new flag value.
By introducing a new EO only API, which is meant to remain
internal, we can use a single legacy info structure, fixing
this issue.
Note: In the future this API needs to be internal, not protected.
@fix
This patch introduces the possibility to set the pointer mode and
query other properties like current position per pointer device.
The old API will still works, however it will only act on the default seat.
In case of a mapped object (eg. when applying a map to a window
in wayland compositor), the canvas and output coordinates are
not meant to be the same.
In EO land, applications should instead use the common interface
Efl.Input.Interface.pointer_xy.get (on the canvas).
@fix
This adds support for distance, pressure, tilt and twist.
Not entirely sure if normalized & raw (x,y) should be exposed
in the eo interface. Also not sure what to do with tilt_x/y
(as used by libinput) or touch/tool width "major/minor" vs.
radius x/y.
Add debug logs in the example, including the distance.
I can't test most of these values due to a lack of compatible
hardware, but the most basic features seem to work :)
This removes:
Efl.Event interface
And renames:
Efl.Event.Input -> Efl.Input.Event
Efl.Event -> Efl.Input.Event (merged)
Efl.Event.Pointer -> Efl.Input.Pointer
Efl.Event.Key -> Efl.Input.Key
Efl.Event.Hold -> Efl.Input.Hold
This also moves some interfaces from efl/ to evas/ where they
belong better.
This allows renaming Eo_Event to Efl_Event.
This converts Evas_Axis or Ecore_Axis info arrays into basic
pointer data. Also marks those fields as set. All events need
to properly implement the value_has property (mark all bits
whenever a value is known).
This moves MULTI events to those new finger event types,
and also sends a finger event for finger 0 (aka the pointer).
NOTE: This may require a separation between a mouse input and
an actual finger touch. To be defined, ie: do we let the app
check the input device info to decide whether the event is
actually the first finger of a multi touch device, or do
we want to send only actual finger events from multi touch
devices only?
@feature
Since the new event type is the same for multi and single
touch (finger id is the only difference), multi touch listeners
would get triggered even for single mouse events.

Fixes https://phab.enlightenment.org/T4378
This raises a question though: How do we want to differentiate
between single & multi touch events in the eo interfaces?
The previous patch 1185c40e50 shows how having
two event types for the same thing (key or mouse input events)
was a bad idea. The only guaranteed order of callbacks is the
priority but even that was not enforced (since legacy or eo
style event had to come first).
Fixes T4310
So, I was stupid. I was relying on legacy callbacks to
trigger eo events, which means that only when a legacy
callback was registered would my new eo events be triggered.
Instead, I can pass the eo event desc & info whenever
calling evas_object_event_callback_call().
This is going back to the same idea as legacy. We will have
events such as:
- move
- down
- up
- in
- out
- wheel
- cancel ("new" - very rare)
Now the question is whether/how we should divide "multi" events
which start from the 2nd finger from standard mouse events. The first
multitouch finger should by default look like a mouse event.
This moves Efl.Pointer.Event back to Evas. Originally I wanted
to share this class with Ecore but eventually I didn't need to
do so, since only ecore_evas (which depends on evas) really needs
access to these.
The internal data struct is not moved out of efl (yet?)
This continues the work started in the previous commit:
forward full event info (Efl_Pointer_Event) from evas to
the upper layers.
This also includes more support for IN and OUT.
