PatternHandler: remove unused code

hrev17117 implemented B_OP_COPY with a special treatment for text.
hrev21929 introduced the color cache to speed up that text drawing.
hrev52753 removed the special treatment of text in B_OP_COPY, but left the
color cache and the text flag behind.

app_server: Drop gfxcpy and implement some TODOs about checking for graphics memory.

We still do not know if the accelerant buffers are graphics memory or not,
but in my testing (on the VESA driver), the only time I could get _CopyRect
to be called was where the buffer was in fact not graphics memory.
So that should provide a performance improvement there.

On the other end of things, this should resolve unaligned video memory
access problems on RISCV, and potentially other platforms, as gfxcpy32
did not attempt to align pointers; it should also improve performance
as memcpy will usually be faster than our custom gfxcpy here.

Most of this code has not been touched since 2006 or so.

Added two DrawStringDry() versions for obtaining pen location only

When recording into a BPicture (ServerPicture, actually), one cannot
simply record the commands only, when the drawing itself would modify
state. This affects all drawing commands that change the pen location.
Therefore it is necessary to have a way to "dry-run" drawing a string
in order to know the pen location that would result. This is what
these two new methods help achieve.

BView: add methods for affine translation/scaling/rotation

* BView::TranslateBy(), BView::ScaleBy() and BView::RotateBy()
allow to conveniently modify the current affine transformation.
This makes it unnecessary to first read the current transform,
modify it, and then set it again.
Uses the new Pre...() methods of BAffineTransform.

* Also, remove setting the transform "through" to the BView even
while recording a BPicture, as this now results in transforms
being applied more than once.

app_server: optional coordinate shifting in renderer_region

* agg::renderer_region gets an extra feature which allows to
optionally shift the coordinates by a specified offset.

* This allows to shift coordinates at the lowest level, even below
the transformations done by BAffineTransform (which happen in the
painter, right before rasterization).

Needed for layers support: shifts the origin of the layer bitmaps
to their position in the view while keeping all transformations
(BView origin/scale transforms as well as BAffineTransforms)
intact. The offset for the layer bitmaps within their parent view
is determined by the bounding box and is then fixed, it must not
be altered while the layer's BPicture is played into the bitmap.

If this offset were added to the BView origin or as translation in
the BAffineTransform, it would be further transformed by the BView
scale or the other affine transform parameters. Thus, we need
another low-level offset mechanism which is even below
BAffineTransform's transformations.

# 79eb23a8 19-May-2014 Adrien Destugues <pulkomandy@pulkomandy.tk>

Fix handling of filled rectangles with transforms.

The DrawingEngine didn't properly make a distinction between the
rectangle being filled and the damaged region on screen. This led to
unexpected results when using BAffineTransform.


# eb431663 11-Mar-2014 Adrien Destugues <pulkomandy@pulkomandy.tk>

app_server & interface kit: support fill rules.

* BView gets SetFillRule/FillRule methods. The fill rule is part of the
view state.
* The B_NONZERO rule is the default. This is what we implemented before.
* The B_EVEN_ODD rule is the other common possibility for this, and
we need to support it to help WebKit to render properly.


# 89f8b7a1 08-Feb-2014 Stephan Aßmus <superstippi@gmx.de>

app_server: Fix computing bounding boxes for transformed stuff.

* In DrawingEngine, clipping is computed before drawing happens. This did not
take into account when drawing primitives can now be transformed. Fixes

into view and it was previously prevented to draw.
* Fixed clipping rect computation for the sanitized StrokeRoundRect()
implementation which centers the stroke on the rect.

* Remove SetAlphaMask() from DrawingEngine and Painter. It is now done in
SetDrawState().


# f08d5477 28-Jan-2014 Adrien Destugues <pulkomandy@pulkomandy.tk>

Add Alpha Masking support in ClipToPicture

Use AGG to implement ClipToPicture in a faster and better way.
There are things missing in this initial implementation:
* No support for PushState/PopState saving and restoring the picture.
* No support for nested clipping through PushState
* The clipping doesn't happen where you expect it when using SetScale()
* There are artifacts when scrolling and resizing clipped views
* The implementation uses more memory than it needs, as the clipping
bitmap is stored as RGBA32, yet only the alpha channel is used
* The clipping bitmap is rendered more times than it needs to. We need
some caching here.

# 76ab3f88 18-Mar-2010 Stephan Aßmus <superstippi@gmx.de>

Basically, this changeset implements BShape::ArcTo(). In more detail:
* Added BShape::ArcTo() and BShapeIterator::IterateArcTo(), using a previously
unused virtual slot. (Added the symbols for binary compatibility for GCC2
and GCC4.)
* Added operator=(), operator==() and operator!=() to BShape.
* Added BShape::BezierTo() version taking three points, which is sometimes
more convenient.
* Added the four new shape data ops OP_LARGE_ARC_TO_CW, OP_LARGE_ARC_TO_CCW,
OP_SMALL_ARC_TO_CW and OP_SMALL_ARC_TO_CCW. For a single arc, provided the
radius is large enough, there are four possibilities to draw the arc, these
are controlled by the two boolean flags to ArcTo() and mapped to the new
commands accordingly.
* Some style cleanup in Shape.cpp (sorry for mixing it up, but it gets
worse below...)
* Added ShapeTest to src/tests/servers/app.
* Changed the way BShapes are transformed from view to screen space in the
app_server. For arcs, it would be nontrivial to apply a proper transformation,
it's much easier to let AGG take care of it. This affects ServerPicture as
well.
* Wrapped iterating the BShape into try/catch blocks in ShapeIterator. But
I really don't understand the purpose of the class in the first place.
Maybe it can now be dropped, since coordinates don't have to be transformed
in place anymore.
* Refactored copy&paste shape iteration code in Painter. The transformation
to screen space happens there.
* Since RemoteDrawingEngine needed to be adopted anyway, I also updated
it for the new DrawString() with offsets version. But the client still needs
to be adapted.
* Style cleanup in Painter.h

* Adding a remote desktop interface that operates on app_server drawing
primitives by providing a RemoteDrawingEngine and a RemoteHWInterface.
Not really optimized yet, still a bit WIP.
* Adding corresponding infrastructure like a blocking ring buffer and network
sender/receiver that are attached to the buffers to feed/drain them as well
as a RemoteMessage helper that provides a message based interface.
* Adding target screen concept to request an app to be run on a specific screen.
It's controlled by the TARGET_SCREEN environment variable which is added on
the app side and sent to the app_server.
* Right now only remote target screens are supported, in which case a new
RemoteHWInterface is created that tries to connect to the given host:port.
* Fix shape bounds when drawing, they need to be translated by the pen position
and converted to screen like the points as well. Wasn't visible though as the
bounds weren't used in the normal DrawingEngine.

# 12349c7d 05-Apr-2009 Stephan Aßmus <superstippi@gmx.de>

Begun to use structs for the BView<->app_server communication. This makes
the protocoll less prone to errors, reduces possible points of failure and
most importantly, reduces the number of function calls to the link API.
I only know the numbers for StrokeLine(), which I tested via the Benchmark
test app. With this change, drawing random colored and positioned lines
actually doubled in speed. On the BView side, the calls to
ServerLink::Attach() only halfed, while on the app_server side, the number
of calls to ServerLink::Read() is now 1/4th. It will also be worth
investigating why the link stuff is so slow at all. I also optimized
BView::DrawString() a lot in this change, but I don't have any numbers
yet. Some other commands which used multiple Attach()/Read() calls were
also optimized, at least the most important ones. Begin/EndLineArray() was
also pretty bad on the app_server side.

Check if the Painter even has a clipping region set before trying to take the

* The StrokeLine() variation that takes a rgb_color did change the drawing
state of the painter without restoring it afterwards (HighColor and
DrawingMode).
This function is only used in decorators, but as such it could lead to
strange effects. When clicking and holding the close button on the R5
MidiPlayer for example, the background of the scope would suddenly become
the color of the close buttons middle line. As the drawing mode was also
overwritten this could probably have lead to text rendering issues when
zooming applications. As I didn't find a easy way to reproduce such a thing,
this is only theory though.
* Implement the missing IsExclusiveAccessLocked() method in the DrawingEngine
which is not used at the moment. If corresponding debug output is generated
though, it reveals possible locking issues with CopyRegion().
* Remove an empty line in the LineArrayData struct.

HWInterface::Cursor() and therefor Desktop::Cursor() accessed the
current cursor without locking, and did not add a reference while
using the cursor. I have tried to solve both problems by introducing
a simple ServerCursorReference class, which makes sure that the
reference count is properly maintained. There are only two places
where this code was even used, from within ServerApp and when taking
screenshots. Axel, you mentioned in #837 that the code is unsafe, is
this what you meant? This hopefully fixes #837, but it is very hard
to reproduce in the first place, I will close the ticket, but it should
just be reopened if ever encountered again.

* Fix build of app_server test environment by implementing atomic_get(),
maybe this should be the assembler version we use for x86, but is probably
fine for the purpose of the test environment (only BString uses this)
* Fix semantics of DrawingEngine::CopyToFront() which I recently introduced,
for the fake accelerant of the test environment, we do need to call
Invalidate(), not CopyBackToFront() directly.

* Made it possible to supress automatic back to front buffer copying of the
rectangle area that is touched by a drawing command.
* Added a CopyToFront(BRegion) method which copies a complete region from
the drawing/back buffer to the front buffer.

# 8a1c136e 10-Mar-2008 Stephan Aßmus <superstippi@gmx.de>

Use the front buffer for screenshots always, otherwise we don't get the contents
of BDirectWindows for setups where the app_server uses double buffering mode.
I didn't test the change, but the way the cursor is optionally copied into
the bitmap (which might now be not 32 bpp) looks very flexible.

* ReadBitmap() could mess up the software cursor locking, since it
used the BRect version of HideSoftwareCursor() but then called
ShowSoftwareCursor() unconditionally.

# c9d2046f 04-Aug-2007 Stephan Aßmus <superstippi@gmx.de>

* after my last changes to font rendering, it was about 15% slower than
before (although there should be much less lock contention)
* with this change, there is quite a bit of cleanup, text drawing is now
about 20% faster than before the original changes to font caching,
mostly due to turning off the kerning feature, which at the moment
gives absolutely no benefit. The correct way of doing it might be to
use kerning depending on the provided glyph spacing mode
* removed fPenLocation from Painter, the usage should be more correct now,
since it is now consistently applied before the coordinate transformation
from view to screen (also for DrawShape() now, before any view scaling
and origin offset)
* Painter no longer has it's own instance of a ServerFont, instead it uses
its AGGTextRenderer instance, which was per Painter again after the
last change, and not global anymore, made _UpdateFont() useless
* When using GlyphLayoutEngine, it supports a second pass with the same
FontCacheEntry through the introduction of a FontCacheReference. This
speeds up DrawString a little, since it needs to calculate the bounding
box for the string, and then draw the string in a second pass. This is
now done with only one FontCacheEntry lookup
* I also tried to optimize the on-the-fly conversion of UTF8->CharCode away,
since it was done four times per DrawString, but surprisingly, it proofed
to be a slight slowdown.
* introduced a shortcut in DrawingEngine::DrawString() which avoids
calculating the bounding box, we are now a tiny bit faster to figure
out that we don't need to draw any string than Dano

In the test environment (drawing to offscreen bitmap and blitting to
screen eventually), text rendering is now about 3.7 times _faster_ than Dano
text rendering (directly to screen), for untransformed text. Unfortunately
I cannot test on the same machine in accelerant using version of the test
environment.

# 2222864e 02-Aug-2007 Stephan Aßmus <superstippi@gmx.de>

* complete overhaul of the font/glyph caching
* the previous AGG implementation is superfluous
* the new implementation is based on that one, but in a way that allows
read/write locking to the list of cache entries (fonts) as well as
read/write locking to the cached glyphs per individual font cache entry
* new GlyphLayoutEngine.h, which is to be the central place for layouting
glyphs along the baseline.
It handles the locking for getting the font cache entries.
It works by giving it a template class GlyphConsumer which does the
actual work.
* changed AGGTextRenderer to use the new font cache
* changed ServerFont::StringWidth(), and the bounding box stuff to use it
* changed DrawingEngine, it doesn't need the global font lock anymore
* our BFont thought that GetBoundingBoxesAsGlyphs and GetBoundingBoxesAsString
is the same, which of course it isn't, hence the two separate functions...
AsGlyphs just gets the bounding box of each glyph in a string, not treating
the string as an actual word
AsString adds the offset of the glyph in the word to the bounding box
* changed ServerProtocol.h accordingly for the different bounding box meaning

# 38287e02 22-Jul-2007 Stephan Aßmus <superstippi@gmx.de>

* completed my changes to DrawState handling, the current DrawingState
of the active ViewLayer is now always mirrored in the Painter instance
of a ServerWindow, so that it doesn't need to be synced on every drawing
command, this was previously incomplete for font handling
* removed the DrawState parameter from all the DrawingEngine functions
* adjusted ServerWindow and ServerPicture accordingly
* made sure that string related functions used by non-drawing related
parts (ServerApp, Decorator) don't interfere with the current drawing
state
* moved AS_SYNC handling from _DispatchViewMessage to _DispatchMessage,
it is actually a window message and doesn't require fCurrentLayer to
be valid
* fixed bug #1300, fCurrentLayer was not updated when a ViewLayer was
deleted by client request which happened to be fCurrentLayer (I am now
handling it so that the parent becomes the current layer, could be
wrong)
* AGGTextRenderer is no longer using it's own scanline, which should save
a few bytes RAM, the Painter already had such an object
* StringWidth() in AGGTextRenderer is now taking the escapement_delta into
account
* Painter::StrokeLine() doesn't need to check the clipping as much, since
that is already done in DrawingEngine
* if a ServerWindow message is not handled because fCurrentLayer is NULL,
a reply is sent in case the messages needs it (client window could
freeze otherwise, waiting for the reply for ever)
* removed unused AS_SET_FONT and AS_SET_FONT_SIZE
* added automatic RGBColor -> rgb_color conversion to RGBColor.h
* minor cleanup for 80 char/line limit

# 0896fce5 18-Jul-2007 Stephan Aßmus <superstippi@gmx.de>

* since every window has it's own Painter instance, the drawing state does
not need to be "set" (transfered from the "current" view to the painter)
for each singly drawing command. Now, painter is synchronized whenever
the client changes the drawing state of the current view, or when the
current view changes.
* the screen offset of the current view has become part of the Painter state,
in the PatternHandler. This fixes a bug in which moving or scrolling a view
which used patterns for drawing, resulted in visual glitches (seams in the
pattern).

NOTE: this patch is a bit work in progress, most importantly, it is not
complete with regards to text rendering. More specifically, the server
applications and other parts of the appserver might set a font on the Painter
and this might mess up the synchronization. But this happens on the Desktop's
Painter instance (only?), and so it is not a problem. I did observe some
drawing bugs with this patch though, so bug reports are welcome, particularily
how to reproduce these bugs reliably.

# 2cfe93e7 04-Dec-2006 Stephan Aßmus <superstippi@gmx.de>

* renamed HWInterface locking to LockParallelAccess() and
LockExclusiveAccess() (meaning more or less access to the
frame buffer)
* extracted the AGGTextRenderer to be a global instance used
by each Painter instance (currently, it is thread safe because
of the global font lock, so there is some work left in this
regard)
* gave every ServerWindow it's own DrawingEngine instance, this
is work in progress. So far, there doesn't seem to be a regression,
but less fighting over the exclusive access to the frame buffer, now
each ServerWindow thread can draw in parallel. There is room for
improvement, plus I think I'm leaking the DrawingEngine...
* changed the locking for the software cursor. ShowSoftwareCursor()
can only be called if HideSoftwareCursor(BRect) returned true, or
if you called the generic HideSoftwareCursor(), since it needs
to keep the cursor lock and unlocks in Show...!
* some clean up and renaming in Decorator and friends
* moved PatternHandler.h to live along with the .cpp

# 4423855c 13-Sep-2006 Stephan Aßmus <superstippi@gmx.de>

This is the kind of bug you can search for hours. At first, I suspected
a concurency problem in the DrawingEngine, so there is some debugging
stuff added, as well as some unnecessary locking removed there. The
problem was in Painter though, in that certain functions adjusted clipping
at the "rasterizer level", while some other functions didn't care about
that. Now the clipping is consistently set at the rasterizer level (rough
estimate to avoid scanline generation outside real clipping region bounds).
There are a number of bugs fixed by this, I'm going to find out later,
what their ticket numbers are... Mouse preflet draws the mouse now,
Backgrounds preflet draws the screen reliably... probably more, anything
to do with bitmaps, round rects and possibly ellipses.

* Painter switches back correctly from using B_OP_COPY for text to
using the "normal" B_OP_COPY for lines and such that works more
like B_OP_OVER actually (for example, the slider in VLC will look
much better, but also other stuff)
* combined Stroke and FillEllipse() into DrawEllipse() and fixed
some longstanding issues, ellipses are now correctly placed
(aligned) and of the correct size
* removed locking in the DrawingEngine drawing functions, since
you need to have the DrawingEngine locked anyways for the
clipping to stay what it is (and that's already the case elsewhere
in the code)
* simplified ConstrainClippingRegion, the NULL version was never
useful and also locking is removed, see above

summary: slight speed improvements, cleanup and bugfixes...

* implemented view bitmap options (B_BITMAP_TILE...) in
ViewLayer (for example, fixes NetPositive rendering
HTML with a background image)
* use BRegion pool everywhere in ViewLayer
* WindowLayer update sessions distinguish between
different reasons for the update: exposed and requested -
on expose updates, the view backgrounds are cleared
immidiately (as on R5), to keep the time previous stuff
keeps showing as short as possible, while on requested
updates, the background clearing is delayed until the
client draws something, to keep the time until the client
fills a view with content as small as possible to reduce
flickering (might need more work, could be buggy yet)
* HWInterface and DrawingEngine support delayed syncing to
the graphics hardware at least for FillRect/Region. The
speed up gained by this is minor though.
* HWInterface cursor rendering uses a bit of rounding to
avoid the slight transparent shadow around the cursor
(I don't know if it is fully correct though, at least the
shasow disappeared)

are too small (< 100 pixel area, about the sweet spot on

areas at once, and it solves the problem of views unable to
draw into regions that are pending for another update - among
other things, updates in resizing windows are more fluent,
especially for B_FULL_UPDATE_ON_RESIZE views. "Cut off" scroll
bars should no longer appear when the view being scrolled takes
too long to redraw.

* BView gets SetFillRule/FillRule methods. The fill rule is part of the

we need to support it to help WebKit to render properly.

Add Alpha Masking support in ClipToPicture

Use AGG to implement ClipToPicture in a faster and better way.
There are things missing in this initial implementation:
* No support for PushState/PopState saving and restoring the picture.
* No support for nested clipping through PushState
* The clipping doesn't happen where you expect it when using SetScale()
* There are artifacts when scrolling and resizing clipped views
* The implementation uses more memory than it needs, as the clipping
bitmap is stored as RGBA32, yet only the alpha channel is used
* The clipping bitmap is rendered more times than it needs to. We need
some caching here.

Basically, this changeset implements BShape::ArcTo(). In more detail:
* Added BShape::ArcTo() and BShapeIterator::IterateArcTo(), using a previously
unused virtual slot. (Added the symbols for binary compatibility for GCC2
and GCC4.)
* Added operator=(), operator==() and operator!=() to BShape.
* Added BShape::BezierTo() version taking three points, which is sometimes
more convenient.
* Added the four new shape data ops OP_LARGE_ARC_TO_CW, OP_LARGE_ARC_TO_CCW,
OP_SMALL_ARC_TO_CW and OP_SMALL_ARC_TO_CCW. For a single arc, provided the
radius is large enough, there are four possibilities to draw the arc, these
are controlled by the two boolean flags to ArcTo() and mapped to the new
commands accordingly.
* Some style cleanup in Shape.cpp (sorry for mixing it up, but it gets
worse below...)
* Added ShapeTest to src/tests/servers/app.
* Changed the way BShapes are transformed from view to screen space in the
app_server. For arcs, it would be nontrivial to apply a proper transformation,
it's much easier to let AGG take care of it. This affects ServerPicture as
well.
* Wrapped iterating the BShape into try/catch blocks in ShapeIterator. But
I really don't understand the purpose of the class in the first place.
Maybe it can now be dropped, since coordinates don't have to be transformed
in place anymore.
* Refactored copy&paste shape iteration code in Painter. The transformation
to screen space happens there.
* Since RemoteDrawingEngine needed to be adopted anyway, I also updated
it for the new DrawString() with offsets version. But the client still needs
to be adapted.
* Style cleanup in Painter.h

* Adding a remote desktop interface that operates on app_server drawing
primitives by providing a RemoteDrawingEngine and a RemoteHWInterface.
Not really optimized yet, still a bit WIP.
* Adding corresponding infrastructure like a blocking ring buffer and network
sender/receiver that are attached to the buffers to feed/drain them as well
as a RemoteMessage helper that provides a message based interface.
* Adding target screen concept to request an app to be run on a specific screen.
It's controlled by the TARGET_SCREEN environment variable which is added on
the app side and sent to the app_server.
* Right now only remote target screens are supported, in which case a new
RemoteHWInterface is created that tries to connect to the given host:port.
* Fix shape bounds when drawing, they need to be translated by the pen position
and converted to screen like the points as well. Wasn't visible though as the
bounds weren't used in the normal DrawingEngine.

Begun to use structs for the BView<->app_server communication. This makes
the protocoll less prone to errors, reduces possible points of failure and
most importantly, reduces the number of function calls to the link API.
I only know the numbers for StrokeLine(), which I tested via the Benchmark
test app. With this change, drawing random colored and positioned lines
actually doubled in speed. On the BView side, the calls to
ServerLink::Attach() only halfed, while on the app_server side, the number
of calls to ServerLink::Read() is now 1/4th. It will also be worth
investigating why the link stuff is so slow at all. I also optimized
BView::DrawString() a lot in this change, but I don't have any numbers
yet. Some other commands which used multiple Attach()/Read() calls were
also optimized, at least the most important ones. Begin/EndLineArray() was
also pretty bad on the app_server side.

problems, though, like changing the window border
width or the single border decorator color. But I

Patch by Artur Wyszynski:
* Implemented BGradient, BGradientLinear, BGradientRadial,
BGradientDiamond, BGradientConic and BGradientRadialFocus
new Interface Kit classes.
* Implemented all the (AGG-based) backend necessary in
the app_server to render gradients (Painter, DrawingEngine)
* app_server/View can convert a BGradient layout to screen
coordinates.
* Added BGradient methods of the Fill* methods in BView.
* Implemented a test app and added it to the image as a
demo.
* Adopted Icon-O-Matic and libs/icon in order to avoid
clashing with the new BGradient class. Re-use some
parts where possible.

Awesome work, Artur! Thanks a lot. Now a more modern
looking GUI has just become much easier to implement! :-)

* BView::DrawBitmap[Async](const BBitmap* bitmap, BRect viewRect) was accessing
the bitmap pointer without checking it. Would therefore crash when passing
NULL, unlike the other methods.
* The BPicture code already reserved room for the BBitmap flags, but did not
store the actual flags and neiter use them for anything. Since the bitmap
data is stored anyways, the bitmap creation flags do not matter. So I reused
this for the new bitmap drawing options.
* Rewrote Bitmap.h and removed the B_BITMAP_SCALE_BILINEAR flag again.

the compiler better hints. There seems to be a marginal, possibly imagined
speed increase < 0.05 ms. ;-)

Check if the Painter even has a clipping region set before trying to take the
short cut when no text needs to be rendered. I've seen a crash yesterday in
the app_server test environment when the decorater was drawing something,
although it may also have been because I had a screwed up objects folder
where some objects were not recompiled because I am switching back and forth
between two app_server code folders.

* The StrokeLine() variation that takes a rgb_color did change the drawing
state of the painter without restoring it afterwards (HighColor and
DrawingMode).
This function is only used in decorators, but as such it could lead to
strange effects. When clicking and holding the close button on the R5
MidiPlayer for example, the background of the scope would suddenly become
the color of the close buttons middle line. As the drawing mode was also
overwritten this could probably have lead to text rendering issues when
zooming applications. As I didn't find a easy way to reproduce such a thing,
this is only theory though.
* Implement the missing IsExclusiveAccessLocked() method in the DrawingEngine
which is not used at the moment. If corresponding debug output is generated
though, it reveals possible locking issues with CopyRegion().
* Remove an empty line in the LineArrayData struct.

HWInterface::Cursor() and therefor Desktop::Cursor() accessed the
current cursor without locking, and did not add a reference while
using the cursor. I have tried to solve both problems by introducing
a simple ServerCursorReference class, which makes sure that the
reference count is properly maintained. There are only two places
where this code was even used, from within ServerApp and when taking
screenshots. Axel, you mentioned in #837 that the code is unsafe, is
this what you meant? This hopefully fixes #837, but it is very hard
to reproduce in the first place, I will close the ticket, but it should
just be reopened if ever encountered again.

maybe this should be the assembler version we use for x86, but is probably
fine for the purpose of the test environment (only BString uses this)
* Fix semantics of DrawingEngine::CopyToFront() which I recently introduced,
for the fake accelerant of the test environment, we do need to call
Invalidate(), not CopyBackToFront() directly.

* Made it possible to supress automatic back to front buffer copying of the
rectangle area that is touched by a drawing command.
* Added a CopyToFront(BRegion) method which copies a complete region from
the drawing/back buffer to the front buffer.

Use the front buffer for screenshots always, otherwise we don't get the contents
of BDirectWindows for setups where the app_server uses double buffering mode.
I didn't test the change, but the way the cursor is optionally copied into
the bitmap (which might now be not 32 bpp) looks very flexible.

* ReadBitmap() could mess up the software cursor locking, since it
used the BRect version of HideSoftwareCursor() but then called
ShowSoftwareCursor() unconditionally.
* Renamed Hide/ShowSoftwareCursor() to Hide/ShowFloatingOverlays().
* Removed no longer needed FontLocker.
* Implemented AutoFloatingOverlaysHider and got rid of a lot of
code duplication this way.

so far.

* in FillRegion(), check if the current drawing mode is B_OP_INVERT,

acceleration for invert rect/region before. Have not tested this on

* after my last changes to font rendering, it was about 15% slower than
before (although there should be much less lock contention)
* with this change, there is quite a bit of cleanup, text drawing is now
about 20% faster than before the original changes to font caching,
mostly due to turning off the kerning feature, which at the moment
gives absolutely no benefit. The correct way of doing it might be to
use kerning depending on the provided glyph spacing mode
* removed fPenLocation from Painter, the usage should be more correct now,
since it is now consistently applied before the coordinate transformation
from view to screen (also for DrawShape() now, before any view scaling
and origin offset)
* Painter no longer has it's own instance of a ServerFont, instead it uses
its AGGTextRenderer instance, which was per Painter again after the
last change, and not global anymore, made _UpdateFont() useless
* When using GlyphLayoutEngine, it supports a second pass with the same
FontCacheEntry through the introduction of a FontCacheReference. This
speeds up DrawString a little, since it needs to calculate the bounding
box for the string, and then draw the string in a second pass. This is
now done with only one FontCacheEntry lookup
* I also tried to optimize the on-the-fly conversion of UTF8->CharCode away,
since it was done four times per DrawString, but surprisingly, it proofed
to be a slight slowdown.
* introduced a shortcut in DrawingEngine::DrawString() which avoids
calculating the bounding box, we are now a tiny bit faster to figure
out that we don't need to draw any string than Dano

In the test environment (drawing to offscreen bitmap and blitting to
screen eventually), text rendering is now about 3.7 times _faster_ than Dano
text rendering (directly to screen), for untransformed text. Unfortunately
I cannot test on the same machine in accelerant using version of the test
environment.

# 2222864eed6bc28cff3d837c98d1509dcbcf38bc 02-Aug-2007 Stephan Aßmus <superstippi@gmx.de>

* complete overhaul of the font/glyph caching
* the previous AGG implementation is superfluous
* the new implementation is based on that one, but in a way that allows
read/write locking to the list of cache entries (fonts) as well as
read/write locking to the cached glyphs per individual font cache entry
* new GlyphLayoutEngine.h, which is to be the central place for layouting
glyphs along the baseline.
It handles the locking for getting the font cache entries.
It works by giving it a template class GlyphConsumer which does the
actual work.
* changed AGGTextRenderer to use the new font cache
* changed ServerFont::StringWidth(), and the bounding box stuff to use it
* changed DrawingEngine, it doesn't need the global font lock anymore
* our BFont thought that GetBoundingBoxesAsGlyphs and GetBoundingBoxesAsString
is the same, which of course it isn't, hence the two separate functions...
AsGlyphs just gets the bounding box of each glyph in a string, not treating
the string as an actual word
AsString adds the offset of the glyph in the word to the bounding box
* changed ServerProtocol.h accordingly for the different bounding box meaning

* completed my changes to DrawState handling, the current DrawingState
of the active ViewLayer is now always mirrored in the Painter instance
of a ServerWindow, so that it doesn't need to be synced on every drawing
command, this was previously incomplete for font handling
* removed the DrawState parameter from all the DrawingEngine functions
* adjusted ServerWindow and ServerPicture accordingly
* made sure that string related functions used by non-drawing related
parts (ServerApp, Decorator) don't interfere with the current drawing
state
* moved AS_SYNC handling from _DispatchViewMessage to _DispatchMessage,
it is actually a window message and doesn't require fCurrentLayer to
be valid
* fixed bug #1300, fCurrentLayer was not updated when a ViewLayer was
deleted by client request which happened to be fCurrentLayer (I am now
handling it so that the parent becomes the current layer, could be
wrong)
* AGGTextRenderer is no longer using it's own scanline, which should save
a few bytes RAM, the Painter already had such an object
* StringWidth() in AGGTextRenderer is now taking the escapement_delta into
account
* Painter::StrokeLine() doesn't need to check the clipping as much, since
that is already done in DrawingEngine
* if a ServerWindow message is not handled because fCurrentLayer is NULL,
a reply is sent in case the messages needs it (client window could
freeze otherwise, waiting for the reply for ever)
* removed unused AS_SET_FONT and AS_SET_FONT_SIZE
* added automatic RGBColor -> rgb_color conversion to RGBColor.h
* minor cleanup for 80 char/line limit

# 0896fce5fb6672058acb2a99990d3a4cd082105c 18-Jul-2007 Stephan Aßmus <superstippi@gmx.de>

* since every window has it's own Painter instance, the drawing state does
not need to be "set" (transfered from the "current" view to the painter)
for each singly drawing command. Now, painter is synchronized whenever
the client changes the drawing state of the current view, or when the
current view changes.
* the screen offset of the current view has become part of the Painter state,
in the PatternHandler. This fixes a bug in which moving or scrolling a view
which used patterns for drawing, resulted in visual glitches (seams in the
pattern).

NOTE: this patch is a bit work in progress, most importantly, it is not
complete with regards to text rendering. More specifically, the server
applications and other parts of the appserver might set a font on the Painter
and this might mess up the synchronization. But this happens on the Desktop's
Painter instance (only?), and so it is not a problem. I did observe some
drawing bugs with this patch though, so bug reports are welcome, particularily
how to reproduce these bugs reliably.

* renamed HWInterface locking to LockParallelAccess() and
LockExclusiveAccess() (meaning more or less access to the
frame buffer)
* extracted the AGGTextRenderer to be a global instance used
by each Painter instance (currently, it is thread safe because
of the global font lock, so there is some work left in this
regard)
* gave every ServerWindow it's own DrawingEngine instance, this
is work in progress. So far, there doesn't seem to be a regression,
but less fighting over the exclusive access to the frame buffer, now
each ServerWindow thread can draw in parallel. There is room for
improvement, plus I think I'm leaking the DrawingEngine...
* changed the locking for the software cursor. ShowSoftwareCursor()
can only be called if HideSoftwareCursor(BRect) returned true, or
if you called the generic HideSoftwareCursor(), since it needs
to keep the cursor lock and unlocks in Show...!
* some clean up and renaming in Decorator and friends
* moved PatternHandler.h to live along with the .cpp

This is the kind of bug you can search for hours. At first, I suspected
a concurency problem in the DrawingEngine, so there is some debugging
stuff added, as well as some unnecessary locking removed there. The
problem was in Painter though, in that certain functions adjusted clipping
at the "rasterizer level", while some other functions didn't care about
that. Now the clipping is consistently set at the rasterizer level (rough
estimate to avoid scanline generation outside real clipping region bounds).
There are a number of bugs fixed by this, I'm going to find out later,
what their ticket numbers are... Mouse preflet draws the mouse now,
Backgrounds preflet draws the screen reliably... probably more, anything
to do with bitmaps, round rects and possibly ellipses.

* Painter switches back correctly from using B_OP_COPY for text to
using the "normal" B_OP_COPY for lines and such that works more
like B_OP_OVER actually (for example, the slider in VLC will look
much better, but also other stuff)
* combined Stroke and FillEllipse() into DrawEllipse() and fixed
some longstanding issues, ellipses are now correctly placed
(aligned) and of the correct size
* removed locking in the DrawingEngine drawing functions, since
you need to have the DrawingEngine locked anyways for the
clipping to stay what it is (and that's already the case elsewhere
in the code)
* simplified ConstrainClippingRegion, the NULL version was never
useful and also locking is removed, see above

summary: slight speed improvements, cleanup and bugfixes...

* implemented view bitmap options (B_BITMAP_TILE...) in
ViewLayer (for example, fixes NetPositive rendering
HTML with a background image)
* use BRegion pool everywhere in ViewLayer
* WindowLayer update sessions distinguish between
different reasons for the update: exposed and requested -
on expose updates, the view backgrounds are cleared
immidiately (as on R5), to keep the time previous stuff
keeps showing as short as possible, while on requested
updates, the background clearing is delayed until the
client draws something, to keep the time until the client
fills a view with content as small as possible to reduce
flickering (might need more work, could be buggy yet)
* HWInterface and DrawingEngine support delayed syncing to
the graphics hardware at least for FillRect/Region. The
speed up gained by this is minor though.
* HWInterface cursor rendering uses a bit of rounding to
avoid the slight transparent shadow around the cursor
(I don't know if it is fully correct though, at least the
shasow disappeared)

Magnify does now work correctly, fixed bug 197.

Small fix for the last commit. Next thing is color conversion using a subset of what is in Bitmap.cpp. Maybe the conversion functions should be put into a conversion class that can be used by the app_server too.

Started implementing the server side of BScreen()->ReadBitmap().
Colorspace conversion is not done yet so that it only works correct in 32bit modes.
Also drawCursor is not respected yet. Partially fixes bug 197.

some changes supposed to speed up VESA mode on real hardware, based on my experience with optimizations in other parts

* round of baseline position for DrawString()
-> fixes some clipping problems (because of
hinting, the text was displayed at a rounded
position anyways, but the clipping calculation
was screwed up)
* take the drawing_mode and low color from the
current state for drawing line arrays

* removed superflous LockSingleWindow() from WindowLayer::MoveBy()
and ResizeBy()
* WindowLayer::SetSizeLimits() needs to be called with the
AllWindows lock held
* I was observing weird behaviour with "unclickable" windows
that I might have fixed by explicitly excluding invisible
windows from Desktop::WindowAt(), there might be something
wrong with the "current" window list though, Axel would know
* finally found the problem with "delayed background clearing"
* enabled delayed background clearing and removed unnecessary
code. It should be more efficient, since it clears larger
areas at once, and it solves the problem of views unable to
draw into regions that are pending for another update - among
other things, updates in resizing windows are more fluent,
especially for B_FULL_UPDATE_ON_RESIZE views. "Cut off" scroll
bars should no longer appear when the view being scrolled takes
too long to redraw.

small efficiency improvements - overall, the drawing speed of a usual BView, especially controls, is pretty much equal to R5 now (Drawing straight text, using StringWidth(), tons of AddLine()s, FillRect() etc) :-)

removed unused stuff from Painter and DrawingEngine, fixed the deadlock when trying to use the (20 times faster) DrawingEngine version of StringWidth, the font is now usually ignored when taking on a DrawState in Painter... should add a little speed overall

fixed one more drawing bug, it only showed because now the test environment uses hardware acceleration, FillRegion for the client irgnored the current clipping

* removed CopyRegionList, as it made no sense
* finally nailed that much hated bug where the
wrong background underneath the cursor was restored.
I always looked for this in the wrong place -
of course, you cannot blit regions on top
of the cursor and expect the backup of the
background to be magically valid still... ;-)

Also fixed Jamfile for the test environment.

now updates BView::PenLocation() correctly after DrawString(), stuff like DrawChar('a') is working nicely now, for rotated text much better then in BeOS in fact because of subpixel precision in pen location

* Painter uses the line_cap and join_mode settings of DrawState
* Painter implements DrawShape for stroking and filling BShape data
* Painter uses clipping to avoid problems with huge coordinates, the R5 app_server can be crashed by this.
-> this should be added to more places as well like text rendering
* DrawingEngine uses the Painter to draw BShape data

renamed DisplayDriverPainter to DrawingEngine, removed tons of duplicated code, and - guess what - found some bugs while doing so... but nothing critical. This patch removes the former DisplayDriver API from libappserver.so, which I think breaks Decorator plug-ins for now
