With this, the mouse no longer stays disconnected from the dragged item
when the item can't move any further. It does show some interesting
behavior when window resizes don't behave, but it's still an
improvement.
Copy the component out of the pool so that it can be overwritten now,
thus removing it from the pool, before actually destroying the component
so that any recursive removals of the same component don't mess up the
indices, and also don't try to remove the component from the same
entity.
This fixes a rather sneaky component leak caused by said recursion.
Descenders still cause problems for layout, but now the paragraphs are
no longer on top of each other. Also, the paragraph spacing is currently
hard-coded (but should be part of a style).
With the change to hierarchies being components, any pointers to the
hierarchy component are not stable and must be refreshed after the
possibility of adding or removing a hierarchy.
It was a right cow to get working at all due to the tangled mess of
dependencies between different hierarchies (switching to hierarchies as
components helpt), but other that some vertical positioning (paragraphs
and descenders), it's working fairly well now (and fairly quick other
than I think I need to ensure the shaping cache is used).
Some of them were actual leaks, but tracking memory should be a lot
easier now. However, there's a lot of room for optimization of
allocations (eg, recylcling of hierarchies. There is now 1 active
allocation (according to tracy) when nq exits: Qgetline's string buffer
(I think an api change is in order).
This makes it possible for hierarchies to clean themselves up (by
deleting their entities (though that will cause other problems later
when the hierarchy doesn't own the entities)), thus plugging a memory
leak when parsing passage text.
The main goal of this change was to make it easier to tell when a
hierarchy has been deleted, but as a side benefit, it got rid of the use
of PR_RESMAP. Also, it's easy to track the number of hierarchies.
Unfortunately, it showed how brittle the component side of the ECS is
(scene and canvas registries assumed their components were the first (no
long the case), thus the sweeping changes).
Centerprint doesn't work (but it hasn't for a while).
It's used for finding the entity that has the actual canvas component
attached. Useful for sharing a single canvas between multiple view
hierarchies, and worked as a proof of concept for doing similar with
hierarchy references, and might work for properly destroying canvas
items (fills etc) when a view entity is deleted (if attached to every
view).
I'm not entirely sure what's going on yet, but deleting the referenced
view via its entity rather than the view results in a corrupted href in
the component pool (with a null entity id in the dense array) and then
an href component leak (as well as some very weird numbers when dumping
canvas bounds). I suspect Hierref_DestroyComponent is missing a few
steps (though I do need to verify that it's getting called in this
particular case).
This is for scroll boxes (the nesting of canvases is for the clipping
they provide). There are some issues with automatic layout, but this
gets things mostly working, in particular the management of the link
between hierarchies as a canvas is always the root of its hierarchy.
With the scroll box work I'm doing, I realized 16 bits is a little
cramped. Although I doubt it would be that much of a problem, switching
to 32 bits turned out to be free because of alignment.
Much of the state handling was highly redundant (in particular, handling
entity and old_entity). This should make it easier to get dragable items
for window resizing.
Tracy is a frame profiler: https://github.com/wolfpld/tracy
This uses Tracy's C API to instrument the code (already added in several
places). It turns out there is something very weird with the fence
behavior between the staging buffers and render commands as the
inter-frame delay occurs in a very strangle place (in the draw code's
packet acquisition rather than the fence waiter that's there for that
purpose). I suspect some tangled dependencies.
gcc didn't like a couple of the changes (rightly so: one was actually
incorrect), and the fix for qfcc I didn't think to suggest while working
with Emily.
The general CFLAGS etc fixes mostly required just getting the order of
operations right: check for attributes after setting the warnings flags,
though those needed some care for gcc as it began warning about main
wanting the const attribute.
Fixing the imui link errors required moving the ui functions and setup
to vulkan_lighting.c, which is really the only place they're used.
Fixing a load of issues related to autoconf and some small source-level issues to re-add clang support.
autoconf feature detection probably needs some addressing - partially as -Werror is applied late.
Panels can be anchored to a widget in another hierarchy, allowing for
things like cascading menus. They can also be extended via referencing
them by name, allowing for subsystems to add items to an already panel
(eg, extending a menu).
This prevent the layout system from repositioning the text view and thus
breaking text-shaping. Now Tengwar Telcontar looks much more balanced in
the widgets.
Skipping the root view (widget) sort of made sense before windows became
separate canvases as there was only the one hierarchy, but doing so
prevented windows (panels) from fitting themselves to their children.
However, now I need to think of a good way of specifying a minimum size
for panels.
WIdgets can't possibly be active when the entire UI is hidden, and
resetting the active widget when hiding the UI helps when the state gets
broken due to widget id conflicts.
The intent is to use them for menus, tooltips and anything else along
those lines, but windows was a good starting point (and puts a border
along the top of the window too).
It's not perfect as the first N expanding children get grown by 1 pixel
regarless of weight, but it's much better than leaving a (possibly quite
large) gap at the edge of the layout.
I'm not sure this is what I want, especially in the long run, but it
does make simple windows much easier to create (and not look broken due
to being specified too small).
Canvas draw order is sorted by group then order within the group. As a
fallback, the canvas entity id is used to keep the sort stable, but
that's only as stable as the ids themselves (if the canvases are
destroyed and recreated, the ids may switch around).
