The documentation is still at 1.3 on the website
Hi, please update it to 1.4 and/or add a simple step by step how to build the docs yourself (be it in the FAQ region, or in building from source). ___ wayland-devel mailing list wayland-devel@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/wayland-devel
[PATCH] Extend wl_surface protocol [reminder]
Just a reminder on how clocks differ (on LInux) from one another, taken from here: http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-man/msg00973.html Needless to say, gettimeofday() should be avoided. CLOCK_REALTIME - can jump - can slew - if ntp is running this clock is always kept close to GMT. even if hardware is not 100% correct, ntp will correct everything over time. CLOCK_MONOTONIC - cannot jump - can slew !!! (because of ntp) - it is not kept in sync with GMT. but the speed of seconds is kept in sync with GMT by varying it constantly by ntp. CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW - cannot jump - cannot slew ! - the speed of seconds is not the same as the speed of GMT seconds since the hardware timer is never 100% exact and ntp daemon does NOT have influence here /** *Just one question. Which clock is being used. Ideally a monotony one, or *even better, a configurable one. We would normally not want these *timestamps affected by the user changing the system time. **/ ___ wayland-devel mailing list wayland-devel@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/wayland-devel
Wayland cut/copy/paste better than in X11?
Hi, Between application running on X11 apparently there's no standard way to tell if file(s) (their URIs) have been cut or copied into the clipboard, so you don't know what to do on Paste, so people invented (silly) workarounds as explained here [1]: Since there is no standard way to copy and paste files between applications on X11, various MIME types and conventions are currently in use. For instance, Nautilus expects files to be supplied with a x-special/gnome-copied-files MIME type with data beginning with the cut/copy action, a newline character, and the URL of the file. I wonder if the Wayland protocol allows for a proper/easy solution to this problem (I'm talking about cut/copy/paste, not drag-n-drop), like an additional uint32_t info field to code the type of action into it, not just the URI strings? I looked here [2] and wl_data_device::set_selection_arguments has a uint serial field but I'm not sure if it's meant to solve this problem or for a different reason. Can anyone please explain?

[PATCH] client: Add acquire-fd API to avoid requiring a polling main thread
Hi Kristian, Your patch calls like 3 times pthread_cond_wait(..), shouldn't each of these calls be in a loop? From a book on pthreads: You should always wait for a condition variable in a loop, to protect against errors, multiprocessor races, and spurious wakeups. Kind Regards ___ wayland-devel mailing list wayland-devel@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/wayland-devel
