Well, the get/put functionality is actually a kind of "last resort" thing. It's generally very slow to 'get' from a display target.. but it would be there for very particular obj types that need an argb copy of what's already been rendered in order for it to 'do its thing'.. Most objs would not need this. What they would use is some form of compositing to the display target, or to a target specific buffer surface. For this we'd have two sets of functions - one set that 'directly' composites a triple (argb buf, a8 buf, color) to a target surface.. and one set that involves target specific buffers. Many engines have some sort of native notion of a 'buffer' that one can get/put data to, which they can composite to a target surface.. eg. xrender has 'pictures', gl has at least 'textures', etc.. and usually this compositing can be done with some 'transform' (scaling, rotating, shearing,..) being specified. Most of the hardware accelerated aspects that evas needs really come from this compositing step. So what one can do is to realize one's object to an (argb buf, a8 buf), and 'put' this (plus maybe the global context color) on an engine provided buffer of some sort. Then let the engine do the compositing of this to the target surface. One can cache such buffers and only need re-generating/ putting the data from the obj when state changes require it.. and thus obtain some good performance on that part - even though you know nothing about what the object may be doing to realize itself onto the argb/a8 buffers that it puts on engine provided buffers. Some tests I've run show that even when the engine supports functions for drawing things like sub-pixel positioned polygons, it's actually faster to draw these in software and use the above. When I say faster here, I mean not 10% or 30% faster.. I mean it's like 20 or more times faster. But the main reason for this re-design is really to allow for both modular engines AND modular objects to work.. not just to make it easier to add new engines supporting the current set (or an extended set) of objects and/or their properties - though that is certainly an added bonus. Each object type is thus a collection of modules, one for each engine it may want to provide an optimized implementation for.. But it must provide at least one module - the 'generic' one. The mechanism is then setup so that this generic module can work with ANY engine - so long as the engine provides the required buffer functions, and its general gfx context 'derives' from the 'generic' one. > just one last thing, with this changes in mind, in what level > would you insert the "object engine" (i guess it wont be called > like that anymore) the idea of making a layer above the object > functions (API object functions, _move, _resize, _image_file_set, > rectangle_add, etc) was to avoid duplicating functions on evoak. > evas still maintains the state of objects but after a state change > the "object engine" (evoak engine) sends a protocol's command to > the evoak server. the main idea is to set up callbacks for any > object state change. > > > ... > > The obj-engine sounds nice.. :) I just think that > > exporting many of these things may just be too pre-mature - > > regardless of how the objs and engines and such eventually end > > up looking. > > i agree, so a good previous design will be usefull. > It would.. and it would make it easier to write any engine without having to worry about giving specific implementations of some set of objects at first.. Also, it would give loadable obj types.. something which is very desirable (for various reasons). Altough adding render-pre/post functions to smart objects would also help in speeding self-rendering 'external' objects, having the ability to put some of these as loadable obj-types would be more efficient and faster - and allow for whatever engine specific optimizations to be written as well. However, I just don't see myself sendi
[E-devel] Position bug?
Hi, I tell a program to remember it's virtual desktop and position. When I start the program from an other desktop or from startup/.order the program starts on the desired desktop but the position are wrong. It always starts in the upper left corner!
