Summary:
Eolian adds a per-class BETA guard (like EFL_UI_WIN_BETA) to any method tagged
as @beta. This means that any app (and the EFL code) wanting to use BETA features
has to enable them class by class, which is cumbersome.
This commit replaces the individual guards with the global EFL_BETA_API_SUPPORT
guard, so apps only need to define one symbol to access BETA features.
Any usage of the per-class guards has been removed from the EFL code and examples.
When building EFL the global guard is defined by configure, so all EFL methods
already have access to BETA API.
Efl_Core.h and Efl_Ui.h no longer define EFL_BETA_API_SUPPORT. Apps wanting to
use BETA API have to define this symbol before including any EFL header
(It has been added to the examples requiring it).
Test Plan:
make && make check && make examples still work, but there's a lot less #defines
in the code

As in the previous commit explained, we want to get rid of class
functions in eo, and make them just c functions right away.
This commit removes the class parameter from the eo_class_function_set
call, and adjusts the tests to not depend on class functions anymore.
Class functions are now not tested anymore, tests that used them as a
way to test *things* are adjusted to test them now with object
functions, tests that just tested the working of class functions are
dropped.
This fixes T7675.

Until this commit eo did class functions as part of the vtable, which
enabled those functions to be overwritten in classes inheriting another
class. However in task T7675 we decided that this is not really good for
bindings, as most OOP languages do not support this sort of feature.
After this commit eolian realizes class function completly outside of
the vtable, the c-symbol that is the class funciton is now just directly
redirecting to a implementation, without the involvement of the vtable.
This also means a change to the syntax created by eo:
Calling before:
class_function(CLASS_A);
Calling after:
class_function();
Implementation before:
class_function(const Eo *obj, void *pd) { ... }
Implementation after:
class_function(void) { ... }
This fixes T7675.

Each regular class can now have a section called 'composite',
which can contain interfaces and interfaces only. This defines
a list of interfaces that are allowed to be unimplemented on the
class, as it is assumed the class will be composited with some
other class implementing those interfaces.
Only regular classes can have this, as only regular classes can
be instantiated.
It will also be necessary to check whether the classes in the
section appear somewhere within the inheritance tree. For now,
this testing is not being done.
Example of usage:
composite {
Some.Magic.Interface;
Another.Magic.Interface;
}
directly in the class body.

This is needed in order to support checking the correct regular classes

This introduces a new keyword called required. It only works on mixins.
You can specify a list of regular/abstract classes in there.
Classes specified after the required keyword are later used to verify
the usage of the mixin. With this feature a mixin can define a list of
types that the inheriting object (the object that inherits from a mixin)
needs to fullfill, if one class that is required is not in the
implemented classes, then eolian will bail out.

Having these files would result in eolian cxx tests failing when
building using autotools, as eolian generators by default include
entire src directory and eolian cxx already had classes a/b/c.
In an ideal case this should not happen as eolian cxx should not
scan tests that are not its own, and it already behaves correctly
under meson but there is no good way to fix it for autotools, so
just rename as a workaround.
This new syntax separates the parent class from extensions, in
a familiar way to similar to e.g. Java. Since changing everything
at once is a lot of effort, implement it alongside for the time
being.
Eolian now separates 'parent' and 'extensions'. For regular
classes, parent is the first item in the inherits list and
extesions is the rest. For interfaces and mixins, parent is
NULL and extends is the inherits list.
The reason for this is the separation of them in syntax in near
future. It also slightly changes the behavior; since for interfaces
and mixins, parent is always NULL now, you can freely inherit from
all types of classes without needing to manually put an interface
type as the first item of the inherits list.
This will make it easier for generators and utilities to retrieve
the class that implemented a method/property/etc rather than the
class the implement was originally defined for. Thanks to this
it will no longer be necessary to carry the class pointer around
the place.
Summary:
This tagging keyword explicitly asks, for bindings that support it,
that the constructor's parameters are added to the class constructor.
Allowing the user to instantiate the class and call the constructor in
a straightforward way.

This uses the meson/ninja depfile functionality + eolian to make
sure proper dependencies between generated files and .eo files
are managed, to ensure consistent re-generation of all generated
files that are affected upon .eo file modification.
For custom rules with multiple outputs, Ninja currently does not
support depfiles. Therefore, split those into two custom rules
so that the depfiles functionality can be enabled. While this
is ugly and slows down the process a little by having to invoke
Eolian twice instead of once, it has to be done and it's still
better than what we had in Autotools anyway.

meson was taken because it went quite good for enlightenment, and is a traction gaining system that is also used by other mayor projects. Additionally, the DSL that is defined my meson makes the configuration of the builds a lot easier to read.
Further informations can be gathered from the README.meson
Right now, bindings & windows support are missing.
It is highly recommented to use meson 0.48 due to optimizations in meson

This adds code to run the Eolian static checker as part of tests,
but considering how many failures there are at this point, does
not enable it. Once they're all fixed, it can be enabled by
removing the #if 0.
Doc refs no longer introduce new dependencies into files. Instead,
they're parsed globally, and any doc ref lookup is also made
globally. This allows unit based dependencies to correspond more
to what files actually really need at compile time/runtime, with
docs being irrelevant to that; it also simplifies the API.
The doc resolution API now takes Eolian_State instead of
Eolian_Unit, too.
This changes a lot of things all across the EFL. Previously,
methods tagged @const had both their external prototype and
internal impl generated with const on object, while property
getters only had const on the external API. This is now changed
and it all has const everywhere.

As it is no longer necessary to pass unit when evaluating exprs,
it is not necessary to pass it here either. Convert all the APIs
to the new style and update all instances in our tree.
Most of the time you need to retrieve the class from the string
anyway, so remove this relic of old Eolian and gain some small
performance benefits and extra convenience.
Subtly breaks API but everything should be updated.
Because of a typo in generator source (and overlooked error in
tests) we were previously generating incorrect code for setters
with the @auto qualifier. This was brought up in D5306 and is
now fixed.
These types are of questionable value and the API was not entirely
thought out - remove for now, and if a legitimate use is found
later, they may be readded (with a better API), but typically it
seems best to redesign the bad APIs around safe containers...
This is a new type representing a mutable string (no const).
Regular strings cannot be made mutable with @owned because
they might be hidden behind typedefs.
First steps toward explicit function pointer support in eolian.
To declare a function pointer type, use the following syntax, similar to
a regular eolian method declaration.
function FunctionName {
params {
...
}
return: Return type
}
We don't need to keep this in eo files anymore because the APIs
using them are now fully in C. This also allows removal of the
event callback builtin from Eolian.
If you define either the macro MY_CLASS_EXTRA_OPS for normal
methods/properties or MY_CLASS_EXTRA_CLASS_OPS for class methods
or properties, which contains a comma-delimited list of ops defs
(i.e. EFL_OBJECT_OP_FUNC(...), ...) right before including the
generated my_class.eo.c file, the definitions from these will
be included in the actual class. This can be used to override
certain things in a class internally without exposing it to
Eolian, or for testing/debugging.
This allows us to unify retrieval of docs for both regular and
overridden funcs without having two separate APIs. It's currently
missing validation and docgen is still not adjusted properly for
it either, but at least there's this. Enables retrieval of docs
for overridden funcs by default as well.
As there is no need to have separate is_auto, is_empty and
is_pure_virtual for functions and implements (each function has
its own base implement by default) I removed the function ones.
Instead, I added a way to retrieve a function's base implement
so that you can instead do the checks on the implement even when
you only have the function.
I also moved base implement build directly into the parser instead
of the database filler. That allows for significant cleanup. I
also removed distinction of implement pointers in Eolian_Function
for get and set as implements now always contain an entire thing
so the pointer was always the same anyway.
Things should still behave more or less the same, but ordering
of generated functions has changed because ordering of implements
has changed.
Previously one API used just virtual (incorrect) and one used
virtual_pure (which just sounds weird). So unify with a single
name, pure_virtual, similar as in other lanugages.
This does not change eo file syntax yet.
Strictness of various Eolian APIs has been enhanced, for example
eolian_class_function_get_by_name now won't return anything if
you request an EOLIAN_PROPERTY and the found func is just an
EOLIAN_PROP_GET, and various APIs won't accept arbitrary inputs
like EOLIAN_UNRESOLVED or EOLIAN_PROPERTY now, instead you will
need to provide EOLIAN_PROP_GET, EOLIAN_PROP_SET or EOLIAN_METHOD
explicitly.
The purpose of this is to reduce potential bugs and fix ambiguous
behavior. Thanks to use of EINA_SAFETY, appropriate errors should
be printed into terminal when an API is used incorrectly.
New API function eolian_doc_token_ref_get will resolve the kind of
reference in the given token and extract the necessary data you
might need for further use, for example class and function for
methods, or struct and field for struct field. It also supports
event references that will be added into Eolian later.
EFL will be switched to the new resolver (by changing the validator
code) during the next step.
