This commit enables GimpBrowser to emit the "stop-search" signal,
originally emitted only by the internal GtkSearchEntry.
It also connects this signal to all widgets embedding a GimpBrowser,
so they can intercept it and close themselves.
This restores the behaviour that existed before the GtkSearchEntry update
The 'Plugin Browser' and 'Procedure Browser' use the same logic for
enforcing the minimum size of the details page and the list views. And
both are doing it by first setting the minimum: size of GtkTreeView and
then they climb up the widget tree to do the same. This is not ideal.
Setting the minimum size of GtkTreeView is not necessary because it is
inside of GtkScrolledWindow which makes this request moot. It also does
not enforce the minimum height of the widget for that reason. And if
GimpBrowser ever changes, both browsers will need to update their logic.
Moving the size enforcing a level up is logical and more robust.
Using an explicit value of width for the height of the dialog window
makes little sense. This makes the size of the dialog window clear.
And now the height of the list widget is set with its own macro instead
of piggybacking on the dialog window height.
PDB code is now looking directly into the GimpArray length for
determining the data length.
Also adding a 'size' argument (number of elements, not bytes) to
gimp_value_(get|dup)_int32_array() to make it actually introspectable.
Until now, it was somehow introspected but was segfaulting on run.
I.e. that, e.g. in Python, calling Gimp.value_set_int32_array(v, [1, 2, 3])
followed by Gimp.value_get_int32_array(v) would actually make a
segmentation fault. Now the binding works flawlessly.
This will also make these functions much more usable in general.
With the new API introduced int d1c4457f,
we next need to port all plug-ins using
the argument macros to functions.
This will allow us to remove the macros
as part of the 3.0 API clean-up.
If we leave a space between the macro name and opening parenthese for argument
lists, the args are not considered macro args (which will be discovered when
using it). I experienced this issue while testing code on some plug-in
yesterday, so thought I might as well fix all these broken macros for casting to
the specific GimpPlugIn subclass, so that we won't have a next time.
The gimp_procedure_run() already existed, though it was with an ordered
GimpValueArray array of arguments. Its usage feels redundant to the series of
gimp_pdb_run_procedure*() functions (which is confusing), but
gimp_procedure_run() was actually a bit more generic, because it does not
necessarily calls GimpProcedure-s through the PDB! For instance, it can runs a
local GimpProcedure, such as the case of one procedure which would want to call
another procedure in the same plug-in, but without having to go through PDB. Of
course, for local code, you may as well run relevant functions directly, yet it
makes sense that if one of the redundant-looking function is removed, it should
be the more specific one. Also gimp_procedure_run() feels a lot simpler and
logical, API wise.
A main difference in usage is that now, plug-in developers have to first
explicitly look up the GimpPdbProcedure with gimp_pdb_lookup_procedure() when
they wish to call PDB procedures on the wire. This was done anyway in the
gimp_pdb_run_procedure*() code, now it's explicit (rather than calling by name
directly).
Concretely:
* gimp_pdb_run_procedure(), gimp_pdb_run_procedure_config() and
gimp_pdb_run_procedure_valist() are removed.
* gimp_procedure_run() API is modified to use a variable args list instead of a
GimpValueArray.
* gimp_procedure_run_config() and gimp_procedure_run_valist() are added.
* gimp_procedure_run_config() in particular will be the one used in bindings
which don't have variable args support through a (rename-to
gimp_procedure_run) annotation.
Passing (name, type, value) triplets is actually useless because we can get the
type information from the procedure/config anyway. That only adds one more
verification to do. Let's just change the function so that we pass (name, value)
couples instead, pretty much like in `g_object_set()`.
As far as plug-in API is concerned, at least the calling API, order of arguments
when calling PDB procedures doesn't matter anymore.
Order still matters for creating procedures with standard arguments (for
instance, "run-mode" is first, then image, or file, drawables or whatnot,
depending on the subtype of procedure), but not for calling with libgimp.
Concretely in this commit:
- gimp_pdb_run_procedure_argv() was removed as it's intrinsically order-based.
- gimp_pdb_run_procedure() and gimp_pdb_run_procedure_valist() stay but their
semantic changes. Instead of an ordered list of (type, value) couple, it's now
an unordered list of (name, type, value) triplets. This way, you can also
ignore as many args as you want if you intend to keep them default. For
instance, say you have a procedure with 20 args and you only want to change
the last one and keep the 19 first with default values: while you used to have
to write down all 20 args annoyingly, now you can just list the only arg you
care about.
There are 2 important consequences here:
1. Calling PDB procedures becomes much more semantic, which means scripts with
PDB calls are simpler (smaller list of arguments) and easier to read (when
you had 5 int arguments in a row, you couldn't know what they refer to,
except by always checking the PDB source; now you'll have associated names,
such as "width", "height" and so on) hence maintain.
2. We will have the ability to add arguments and even order the new arguments in
middle of existing arguments without breaking compatibility. The only thing
which will matter will be that default values of new arguments will have to
behave like when the arg didn't exist. This way, existing scripts will not be
broken. This will avoid us having to always create variants of PDB procedure
(like original "file-bla-save", then variant "file-bla-save-2" and so on)
each time we add arguments.
Note: gimp_pdb_run_procedure_array() was not removed yet because it's currently
used by the PDB. To be followed.
This removes a bunch of inconsistencies we had from the before-2.99.16 version
because new items from plug-ins were all added at the bottom of their respective
submenu.
and Plug-in/Procedure Browser size.
gtk_widget_set_size_request () is applied to the dialog, as it does not
seem to bubble up from being applied to individual elements.
The existing 2.10 width/height values are used.
This is the consequence of previous commit. Plug-ins' label and
documentation are now localized before sending these data to GIMP core.
In other words, we replace N_() macros with basic gettext calls.
Hence avoiding the stderr messages. These are going to be localized with
centrally installed catalogs "gimp*-std-plugins", "gimp*-script-fu" and
"gimp*-python".
We now handle core plug-in localizations differently and in particular,
with kind of a reverse logic:
- We don't consider "gimp*-std-plugins" to be the default catalog
anymore. It made sense in the old world where we would consider the
core plug-ins to be the most important and numerous ones. But we want
to push a world where people are even more encouraged to develop their
own plug-ins. These won't use the standard catalog anymore (because
there are nearly no reasons that the strings are the same, it's only a
confusing logic). So let's explicitly set the standard catalogs with
DEFINE_STD_SET_I18N macro (which maps to a different catalog for
script-fu plug-ins).
- Doing something similar for Python plug-ins which have again their own
catalog.
- Getting rid of the INIT_I18N macro since now all the locale domain
binding is done automatically by libgimp when using the set_i18n()
method infrastructure.
GLib has a specific type of NULL-terminated string arrays:
`G_TYPE_STRV`, which is the `GType` of `char**` aka `GStrv`.
By using this type, we can avoid having a `GimpStringArray` which is a
bit cumbersome to use for both the C API, as well as bindings. By using
`GStrv`, we allow other languages to pass on string lists as they are
used to, while the bindings will make sure to do the right thing.
In the end, it makes the API a little bit simpler for everyone, and
reduces confusion for people who are used to working with string arrays
in other C/GLib based code (and not having 2 different types to denote
the same thing).

- remove the menu path and image types from "gimp-plugins-query",
they are available via GimpProcedure, also reorder and rename
its remaining return values to make sense
- remove the "menu_path" parameter to gimp_proc_view_new(),
it can also ask GimpProcedure
- adapt plugin-browser to the new API and make it use GimpProcedure
- fix plugin-browser's tree view to show all menu hierarchies
completely, it was still expecting menu paths that contain
the menu label too
because they are deprecated.
Change GIMP_ICON_TYPE_INLINE_PIXBUF to GIMP_ICON_TYPE_PIXBUF and the
libgimp API to (icon-name, GdkPixbuf, GFile). Use the file's uri and a
PNG blob of the pixbuf to pass around on the wire and for storage in
pluginrc.
It was agreed that we should write "plug-in" consistently. Only possibly
user-visible strings were updated.
Thanks to scootergrisen for a first patch which could not make it
after changing decision on the canonical writing.
Try to sort all GIMP_ICON_* defines into FDO categories like in
https://specifications.freedesktop.org/icon-naming-spec/latest/ar01s04.html
Add defines for all icons we override, rename some icons to their FDO
standard names, and mark the ones we duplicate with a comment so we
don't forget to rename those to standard names in 3.0.
and keep GIMP_ICON_TYPE_STOCK_ID as a deprecated alias. Change all
plug-ins accordingly and increase the pluginrc file version number so
it gets regenerated with "icon-name" instead of "stock-id".
