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.
The gimp_drawable_type() is an issue though as gimp_drawable_get_type()
is already defined as a common GObject API.
Though I'm actually wondering if GimpImageType is well called. Rather
than Type, shouldn't we go with ColorModel?
sed -i 's/\<gimp_drawable_bpp\>/gimp_drawable_get_bpp/g' "$@"
sed -i 's/\<gimp_drawable_width\>/gimp_drawable_get_width/g' "$@"
sed -i 's/\<gimp_drawable_height\>/gimp_drawable_get_height/g' "$@"
sed -i 's/\<gimp_drawable_offsets\>/gimp_drawable_get_offsets/g' "$@"
Renaming the temporary function gimp_scale_entry_new2() into
gimp_scale_entry_new() now that the original code is entirely gone. This
is now a fully-fledged widget with a nice and proper introspectable API.
This gives a big cleanup in the meson.build files of the plug-ins.
It's also quite a bit more maintainable, since anything that changes in
libgimp's dependencies, linkage, ... doesn't have to be copy-pasted into
each plug-in.
I am going to forbid plug-ins from being installed directly in the root
of the plug-ins/ directory. They will have to be installed in a
subdirectory named the same as the entry point binary.
This may seem useless for our core plug-ins which are nearly all
self-contained in single binaries, but this is actually a necessary
restriction to eliminate totally the DLL hell issue on Windows. Moving
core plug-ins in subfolders is only a necessary consequence for it.
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.
Created a resource file for plug-ins and a rule to link it to them.
The application icon file is smaller than the default one, there's no
point in doubling the size of a plug-in executable just for an icon.
If no problems turn up, this will close the bug.
Get rid of artificial compiler warnings generated with the #warning
directive. They pollute the build output and don't work as incentives
for fixing stuff.
