It should be implemented as a efl_part() API.
For now I've only done a quick hack, as the only overrides were:
- notify: already a Part implementation. Also it turns out the default
theme does not even have any text part in the notify group.
- combobox: not a Part implementation, but also very badly defined wrt.
parts in general. efl_part() is handled by the parent class (button)
which makes it tricky to override just for one function.
With this patch I'm trying to keep the same behaviour as earlier (where
efl_part() is used for layouts and there is a special path for
combobox).

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 :)

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.
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.

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.
