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.
Change SF server to load /scripts, just like extensio-script-fu.
This restores SF server to v2 behaviour re:
1) the content of responses
2) the need for a run_mode arg in calls to scripts
Thus calls to scripts (submitted to the server)
are evaluated without a call via the PDB to extension-script-fu.
This means such a call yields the string repr
of the last evaluated expression of the script,
instead of the string repr of a call via the PDB,
which is #t since scripts are declared in the PDB as returning void.
This also means the run-mode argument is not required in such calls,
since it is a call to a run_func in Scheme, which has no run_mode arg.
This also means that the SF server will continue to run
even if extension-script-fu crashes.
A test is that a call to a simple "echo" script, installed to /scripts,
yields the same response from the server in both GIMP 2 and 3.
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.
This benefits script authors and testers of ScriptFu.
Now a call to (display "foo") in a plugin goes to the terminal where GIMP started.
Whether interactive or in batch mode.
Make TS errors go to an error port instead of the output port.
Tool plugins: Console, Eval, Server get error messages from the error port.
TextConsole not changed. Tools behave per new doc "ScriptFu Tools" at dev web site.
Driveby fix of SF Server: send whole message instead of byte by byte.
Driveby comments and more semantic checking of set-output-port in TS.
Add test plugin test-display.scm
MINGW64
- uses 0x601 as value for _WIN32_WINNT. No need for us to define
it to that value or even lower values in some places.
This also gets rid of: warning: "_WIN32_WINNT" redefined
- has 0x0502 for WINVER, so get rid of us setting it to 0x0500 in
gimp-app-test-utils.h. It also seems that the need to use G_OS_WIN32
has disappeared here.
- DIRECTINPUT_VERSION is 0x0800, no need for us to set it to that value.
- AI_ADDRCONFIG was apparently missing from the MINGW headers in the
past, but not anymore.
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
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.
Create new plugin file script-fu-server-plugin.c
with code extracted from script-fu.c, which is an omnibus plugin
implementing PDB proc extension-script-fu and other PDB procs.
Why:
1. extension-script-fu is smaller and doesn't doesn't link to socket libraries.
(GIMP always starts extension-script-fu and it stays running.)
2. packagers/admins can omit script-fu-server executable from an installation,
if they think letting users serve net ports is not secure.
3. crashing script-fu-server does not crash extension-script-fu,
which requires restart of GIMP
The changes are mostly a simple refactor, extracting code.
No functional change apparent to users.
Low risk of introduced bugs.
Extremely few users use script-fu-server anyway.
Added some logging.
While at it, use G_DECLARE_FINAL_TYPE
