The wayland code was written more than 4 years ago when wayland wasn't
even at version 1.0. This commit rewrites everything in a more modern way,
switches to using the new xdg v6 shell interface which solves a lot of bugs
and makes mpv tiling-friedly, adds support for drag and drop, adds support
for touchscreens, adds support for KDE's server decorations protocol,
and finally adds support for the new idle-inhibitor protocol.
It does not yet use the frame callback as a main rendering loop driver,
this will happen with a later commit.
See "Copyright" file for caveats.
This changes the remaining "almost LGPL" files to LGPL, because we think
that the conditions the author set for these was finally fulfilled.
Most contributors have agreed. This claims it's based on gstreamer code,
but this was LGPL at the time (and still is). Contributors whose code
was removed were not accounted for. There are still some potentially
problematic cases:
06eee1b67 is potentially the most problematic case. Most of these
changes are gone due to mpv not using BITMAPINFOHEADER anymore. Some
of the other changes are rather trivial. If someone contests this and
claims that copyrightable changes are left, the original change can
simply be reverted.
62bfae140 has only 2 lines left: a "char *name;" struct field, and a
line that prints a message. All other code was removed. The parsing code
in particular was made declarative, which replaced reading this element
explicitly (and other elements, see 1b22101c77). I'm putting the log
message under HAVE_GPL, but I don't think the declaration is
copyrightable, or the mere concept of reading this element. Redoing the
other 2 lines of code would result in the same program text.
d41e860ba was applied by someone who (potentially) disagreed. The patch
itself is from someone who did agree, though. It's unknown whether the
applier changed the patch. But it seems unlikely, and the change was
mostly rewritten.

This reverts commit fae7307931.
Before the waf build system was used, we had a configure script written
in shell. To drop the build dependency on Python, someone rewrote the
Python scripts we had to Perl. Now the shell configure script is gone,
and it makes no sense to have a build dependency on both Perl and
Python.
This isn't just a straight revert. It adds the new Matroska EBML
elements to the old Python scripts, adjusts the waf build system, and of
course doesn't add anything back needed by the old build system.
It would be better if this used matroska.py/file2string.py directly by
importing them as modules, instead of calling them via "python". But for
now this is simpler.
Until now, it only used the hash from the previous configure run,
instead of trying to get the latest hash. The "old" build system did
this correctly - we just have to use the existing logic in version.sh.
Since waf supports separate build dirs, extend version.sh with an
argument for setting the path of version.h.
Starting to get tired of seeing the full config.h in verbose output
every time. Make it slightly more elegant by outputting the list of
satisfied dependencies instead.
We certainly don't use the mplayer configuration dir. The name didn't
matter, but now that it's in user-visible output (as part of config.h
being dumped in verbose mode), it's a bit too strange.
It was requested that mpv should print what features etc. have been
enabled at compile time. It can print the configure command line, but it
obviously doesn't include autodetected features.
I tried to think of a nicer way than dumping the config.h as text, but
this was still the simplest way.
Some mpv builds identify with e.g. "mpv b'0.3.3' ". The version looks
like str() was called on a Python byte string. I couldn't reproduce it
on my machine (I tried with both Python 2 and 3), so I'm not exactly
sure what's going on here, but I'm hoping this commit does fix it.
This commit adds a new build system based on waf. configure and Makefile
are deprecated effective immediately and someday in the future they will be
removed (they are still available by running ./old-configure).
You can find how the choice for waf came to be in `DOCS/waf-buildsystem.rst`.
TL;DR: we couldn't get the same level of abstraction and customization with
other build systems we tried (CMake and autotools).
For guidance on how to build the software now, take a look at README.md
and the cross compilation guide.
