This means that images' ownership is not given to caller in particular.
libgimp will now keep a reference of all GimpImage-s it creates and
return this same reference if called again. It also means that you can
now compare images by pointer comparison (as 2 GimpImage objects
representing the same image ID will be equal).
Obviously as a side effect, gimp_image_list() is changed to (transfer
container) as you must only free the container now, not the elements.
Also various other functions creating new images are now (transfer none)
too.
Long-time plug-ins will have to be taken in consideration in a further
step (we currently never free GimpImage for destroyed images in
particular).
I.e.: gimp_image_get_(layers|channels|vectors)(), gimp_image_list() and
gimp_item_get_children().
Instead of returning an array of IDs, these will now return a GList with
the right objects ready to use.
Same as previous commit: by default the new API will be used. But if a
plug-in builds with GIMP_DEPRECATED_REPLACE_NEW_API macro, then the same
function names will call the old API with ids.
This means that all functions which were returning or taking as
parameter an image id (as gint32) are now taking a GimpImage object
instead.
The PDB is still passing around an id only over the wire. But we create
an object for plug-ins to work on.
This is quite a huge API break, but is probably the best bet for the
future quality. It will make nicer API instrospection (and nicer API in
binding), will fix the issues with pspec on GimpImageID in Python
bindings (which makes the current Python API unusable as soon as we need
to work on images, which is most of our plug-ins!), etc.
Also it will allow to use signals on images, which will be a great asset
when we will finally have bi-directionnal communications (i.e. plug-ins
would be able to connect to image changes, destructions, and whatnot).
Based on original patches from Hartmut Kuhse and modified
by Michael Natterer. Changes include:
- remove libexif dependency and add a hard dependency on gexiv2
- typedef GExiv2Metadata to GimpMetadata to avoid having to
include gexiv2 globally
- add basic GimpMetadata handling functions to libgimpbase
- add image and image file specific metadata functions to libgimp,
including the exif orientation image rotate dialog
- port plug-ins to use the new APIs
- port file-tiff-save's UI to GtkBuilder
- add new plug-in "metadata" to view the image's metadata
- keep metadata around as GimpImage member in the core
- update the image's metadata on image size, resolution and precision
changes
- obsolete the old metadata parasites
- migrate the old parasites to new GimpMetadata object on XCF load

* 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.

Sven Neumann <sven@gimp.org>
Completed the new file structure. Yet only few of the _pdb.[ch]
files are based upon generated code and nothing is really
autogenerated...
* app/Makefile.am
* app/gdisplay_cmds.c -> app/display_cmds.c
* app/gimage_cmds.c -> app/image_cmds.c
* app/gimage_mask_cmds.c -> app/selection_cmds.c
* app/internal_procs.c: related change
* libgimp/Makefile.am
* libgimp/gimp.h
* libgimp/gimp_pdb.h
* libgimp/gimpdisplay_pdb.[ch]
* libgimp/gimpimage_pdb.[ch]
* libgimp/gimpselection_pdb.[ch]: replaced with code based on files
generated using pdbgen
* libgimp/gimpchannelops_pdb.[ch]
* libgimp/gimpcolor_pdb.[ch]

* libgimp/gimpgradientselect.[ch]

autogenerated PDB wrappers as found in *_pdb.[ch]. This is necessary
since the number of parameters or their order is different from the
PDP calls.
* plug-ins/common/CEL.c: plugged memleak
* plug-ins/common/aa.c: removed compiler warning
* tools/pdbgen/Makefile.am
* tools/pdbgen/groups.pl
* tools/pdbgen/pdb/gdisplay.pdb -> display.pdb
