Turn all ID param specs into object param specs (e.g. GimpParamImageID
becomes GimpParamImage) and convert between IDs and objects in
gimpgpparams.c directly above the the wire protocol, so all of app/,
libgimp/ and plug-ins/ can deal directly with objects down to the
lowest level and not care about IDs.
Use the actual object param specs for procedure arguments and return
values again instead of a plain g_param_spec_object() and bring back
the none_ok parameter.
This implies changing the PDB type checking functions to work on pure
integers instead of IDs (one can't check whether object creation is
possible if performing that check requires the object to already
exist).
For example gimp_foo_is_valid() becomes gimp_foo_id_is_valid() and is
not involved in automatic object creation magic at the protocol
level. Added wrappers which still say gimp_foo_is_valid() and take the
respective objects.
Adapted all code, and it all becomes nicer and less convoluted, even
the generated PDB wrappers in app/ and libgimp/.
No need of is_id_arg() anymore in pdb/lib.pl. Let's reuse the {id}
value. Also I had to add an additional trick for GimpDisplay which we
will now generate as such in libgimp PDB files, but still need to show
as GimpObject on app/pdb/.
As previously, only the new classes and the PDB generation for a first
step.
By default the new API will be used. But if we build with
GIMP_DEPRECATED_REPLACE_NEW_API macro, then the same function names will
call the old API with ids.
This way, we don't have to update all our plug-ins at once (which I
tried and is very tedious work).
Note that bindings won't have access to the deprecated API at all.
This means that all functions which were returning or taking as
parameter an image id (as gint32) are now taking a GimpImage object
instead.
The PDB is still passing around an id only over the wire. But we create
an object for plug-ins to work on.
This is quite a huge API break, but is probably the best bet for the
future quality. It will make nicer API instrospection (and nicer API in
binding), will fix the issues with pspec on GimpImageID in Python
bindings (which makes the current Python API unusable as soon as we need
to work on images, which is most of our plug-ins!), etc.
Also it will allow to use signals on images, which will be a great asset
when we will finally have bi-directionnal communications (i.e. plug-ins
would be able to connect to image changes, destructions, and whatnot).

* all files with a GPL header and all COPYING files:
Change licence to GPLv3 (and to LGPLv3 for libgimp).
Cleaned up some copyright headers and regenerated the parsers in
the ImageMap plugin.

* configure.in: bumped version number to 1.3.1.
Require Glib/GTK+-1.3.11 and Pango-0.22. Removed GDK_DISABLE_COMPAT_H
and GTK_DISABLE_COMPAT_H from our default CFLAGS since they don't
exist any longer.

be frozen now.

* app/gui/menus.c
* app/tools/gimptexttool.c: applied RELEASE-TO-CVS.patch to conform
to the new GTK+/Pango API.
* app/core/Makefile.am: generate marshallers with gimp_marshal prefix.
* app/core/gimpmarshal.list: added all marshallers we use.
* app/core/gimpmarshal.[ch]: regenerated.
* app/[lots of .c files]: use gimp_marshal_* for all marshallers.

all _get_type function as G_GNUC_CONST.
* tools/pdbgen/enumcode.pl
* tools/pdbgen/lib.pl: make them generate header files using
G_BEGIN_DECLS/G_END_DECLS.

Sven Neumann <sven@gimp.org>
Completed the new file structure. Yet only few of the _pdb.[ch]
files are based upon generated code and nothing is really
autogenerated...
* app/Makefile.am
* app/gdisplay_cmds.c -> app/display_cmds.c
* app/gimage_cmds.c -> app/image_cmds.c
* app/gimage_mask_cmds.c -> app/selection_cmds.c
* app/internal_procs.c: related change
* libgimp/Makefile.am
* libgimp/gimp.h
* libgimp/gimp_pdb.h
* libgimp/gimpdisplay_pdb.[ch]
* libgimp/gimpimage_pdb.[ch]
* libgimp/gimpselection_pdb.[ch]: replaced with code based on files
generated using pdbgen
* libgimp/gimpchannelops_pdb.[ch]
* libgimp/gimpcolor_pdb.[ch]
* libgimp/gimpedit_pdb.[ch]
* libgimp/gimpfloatingsel_pdb.[ch]
* libgimp/gimpgimprc_pdb.[ch]
* libgimp/gimptexttool_pdb.[ch]
* libgimp/gimptools_pdb.[ch]
* libgimp/gimpundo_pdb.[ch]: new files based on generated code
* libgimp/gimpgradientselect.[ch]
* libgimp/gimpimage.[ch]
* libgimp/gimpselection.[ch]: new files wrapping around the
autogenerated PDB wrappers as found in *_pdb.[ch]. This is necessary
since the number of parameters or their order is different from the
PDP calls.
* plug-ins/common/CEL.c: plugged memleak
* plug-ins/common/aa.c: removed compiler warning
* tools/pdbgen/Makefile.am
* tools/pdbgen/groups.pl
* tools/pdbgen/pdb/gdisplay.pdb -> display.pdb
