We were already considering the plugins under /common but
not the plug-ins that have their own subdirectories. So,
plugin_executables did not match custom_plugin_targets and
the build started to fail on macOS where install_name_tool
neeeds to process the plugins setting the right LC_RPATH.
The code was mistakenly calling gimp_ui_init to init gegl,
and then gtk_init was aborting in headless gimp-console.
Now require GimpPlugin class to init gegl/babl.
See next commit.
Call gimp_ui_init only when run mode INTERACTIVE.
In particular, we want the new Script-Fu plug-in to be able to handle
their progress status themselves, which is possible with
(gimp-progress-set-text) except that it is far too quickly overriden
because each procedure call generates a new progress message.
This is a followup of previous commit. We must set the win_subsystem
option on executable() so that the result binary is compiled as a GUI
application (and doesn't output a console every time).
The previous commit is still needed and is what allows us to control
when to actually display a console.
Call gimp_ui_init during query phase as well as run phase.
Maybe gimp_main() should do this.
Since space invasion from GimpRGB to GeglColor,
plugins that declare defaults for formal args of type GeglColor
need babl and gegl at plugin registration time.
Fixes errors introduced by my prior commit c0ca0b74
1. SF is storing colors in GimpRGB, not GeglColor.
Storing using wrong pointer type seemed to work, but would not build on newer compilers.
2. spurious error message "CRITICAL....Two different plugins tried to register..."
Due to calling gimp_ui_init too early, in the class instance init.
Since PDB now traffics in GeglColor instead of GimpRGB.
Change GimpParamSpecRGB to GeglParamSpecColor when declaring args to procedure.
Declared default is temporarily "black".
Change conversion of gvalue to scheme representation, now from GeglColor.
Incidental change to interpreter to init gegl early,
since now needed during registration phase.
Now that we bumped our meson requirement, meson is complaining about
several features now deprecated even in the minimum required meson
version:
s/meson.source_root/meson.project_source_root/ to fix:
> WARNING: Project targets '>=0.56.0' but uses feature deprecated since '0.56.0': meson.source_root. use meson.project_source_root() or meson.global_source_root() instead.
s/meson.build_root/meson.project_build_root/ to fix:
> WARNING: Project targets '>=0.56.0' but uses feature deprecated since '0.56.0': meson.build_root. use meson.project_build_root() or meson.global_build_root() instead.
Fixing using path() on xdg_email and python ExternalProgram variables:
> WARNING: Project targets '>=0.56.0' but uses feature deprecated since '0.55.0': ExternalProgram.path. use ExternalProgram.full_path() instead
s/get_pkgconfig_variable *(\([^)]*\))/get_variable(pkgconfig: \1)/ to
fix:
> WARNING: Project targets '>=0.56.0' but uses feature deprecated since '0.56.0': dependency.get_pkgconfig_variable. use dependency.get_variable(pkgconfig : ...) instead
- Setting an exec_dir variable is an error. As meson docs says, if
relative, it is installed relatively to prefix anyway: "If this is a
relative path, it is assumed to be relative to the prefix."
On the other hand, it would make problems if someone tried to set an
absolute bindir.
Moreover it is a lot clearer now. When we want to install in the
binary directory unconditionally, then get_option('bindir') is the
meson way, hence the way to go.
- On the other hand, the `gimp-debug-tool` is installed either in bindir
for Windows or macOS and libexecdir for all other platforms, at least
that's how it's set in the autotools build. So let's keep both builds
consistent.
- Make a hopefully clearer description for enable-default-bin option.
Let's clarify this is just about creating unversionning links pointing
to versionned files.
- Adding an item in the "Optional Features" part of the summary listing
during meson configure, for better discovery.
For the ".exe" extension on Windows, I wished we had an $(EXEEXT)
equivalent on meson rather than trying to set it ourselves (are there
other platforms where we must set a different extension?). But I could
not find any.
Why:
1) users can install .scm scripts to plug-ins dir
2) Crashing scripts do not crash extension-script-fu
Scripts (.scm files) have a shebang and are executable
and in a same-named subdir of plugin dir.
Interpreter/scripts create PDB procs of type PLUGIN unlike extension-script-fu
which creates PDB procs of type TEMPORARY, owned by extension-script-fu.
Unlike other interpreters, the interpreter is-a plugin outright,
not by virtue of the script subclassing GimpPlugin and using GI.
