Add gimplegacy-private.h to keep it separate from gimp-private.h.
The legacy code could now be removed and GimpPlugIn-ported plug-ins
would not notice.
Move all old wire code to gimplegacy.c and add wire code to
GimpPlugIn, which now talks with the GIMP core all by itself.
Add some more ASSERT_NO_PLUG_IN_EXISTS assertions to gimplegacy.c and
fix new code that was still using legacy API.
and make the places who need it dispatch between it and
_gimp_read_expect_msg() depending on whether there is a GimpPlugIn
instance. Also clean up some includes.
Basically this commit makes sure that all return values that are marked
as "Returns:" also have a `(nullable)` annotation if it is mentioned on
the same line that NULL can also be returned.
This will prevent a few problems in GObject-introspection.
Start copying all the actual wire communication to GimpPlugIn, and
move the legacy versions to gimplegacy.c.
This implies having the entire protocol code twice, but without any
if(PLUG_IN) { plug_in_stuff(); } else { legacy_stuff(); }
At the moment it is a wild mixture of old and new, but when finished
the wire code in gimplegacy.c will be entirely separate from the wire
code in GimpPlugIn, which will make it easy to g_assert() that only
one API is used by a plug-in.
- Change the wire protocol's GPProcInstall to transmit the entire
information needed for constructing all GParamSpecs we use, don't
use GimpPDBArgType in GPProcInstall but an enum private to the wire
protocol plus the GParamSpec's GType name. Bump the wire protocol
version.
- Add gimpgpparamspecs.[ch] in both app/plug-in/ and libgimp/ which
take care of converting between GPParamDef and GParamSpec. They
share code as far as possible.
- Change pluginrc writing and parsing to re-use GPParamDef and the
utility functions from gimpgpparamspecs.
- Remove gimp_pdb_compat_param_spec() from app/pdb/gimp-pdb-compat.[ch],
the entire core uses proper GParamSpecs from the wire protocol now,
the whole file will follow down the drain once we use a GValue
representation on the wire too.
- In gimp_plug_in_handle_proc_install(), change the "run-mode"
parameter to a GParamSpecEnum(GIMP_TYPE_RUN_MODE) (if it is not
already an enum). and change all places in app/ to treat it as an
enum value.
- plug-ins: fix cml-explorer to register correctly, a typo in
"run-mode" was never noticed until now.
- Add gimpgpcompat.[ch] in libgimp to deal with all the transforms
between old-style wire communication and using GParamSpec and
GValue, it contains some functions that are subject to change or
even removal in the next steps.
- Change the libgimp GimpProcedure and GimpPlugIn in many ways to be
able to actually install procedures the new way.
- plug-ins: change goat-exercise to completely use the new GimpPlugIn
and GimpProcedure API, look here to see how plug-ins will look in
the future, of course subject to change until this is finished.
- Next: changing GPParam to transmit all information about a GValue.
Mostly the same code as GimpProcedure in app/pdb/.
Move the "run" function to GimpProcedure. Add API to GimpPlugIn to
list and create procedures, and always keep a list of the plug-ins
procedures around. Still only using the old params and return_vals.
The new way of doing plug-ins:
- subclass GimpPlugIn in your plug-in
- implement its query() and run() methods, run() will move to a
new GimpProcedure class soon
- instead of MAIN(), say GIMP_MAIN(YOUR_PLUG_IN_TYPE)
Instead of keeping around a GimpPlugInInfo struct, libgimp will
create an instance of your plug-in class, keep it around during
the plug-in's lifetime, and call its virtual functions.
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".

* 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.

* tools/pdbgen/pdb/plug_in.pdb: made plugin_icon_register() an
underscore-prefixed function which needs to be wrapped.
* libgimp/gimpplugin_pdb.[ch]: regenerated.
* libgimp/Makefile.am
* libgimp/gimp.h
* libgimp/gimpplugin.[ch]: new files containing
gimp_plugin_icon_register() which has no "icon_data_length"
parameter and determines it from the passed icon data.
* libgimp/gimp.def: added gimp_plugin_icon_register.
* plug-ins/common/plugindetails.c
* plug-ins/common/screenshot.c
* plug-ins/common/uniteditor.c
* plug-ins/print/print.c: don't pass the icon_data_length.
