The tracking of whether it is over a window or not is only updated when the
mouse moves. If a window was created or moved under it, then the state can be
stale. That caused us to defer hiding the cursor until the mouse was moved.
This happens at the start of games pretty often.
The main dispatch queue is a serial queue and is a shared resource. If we
submit a long-running task to it, then no other tasks, including those submitted
by the system frameworks, can run until it completes.
The standard keyboard shortcut for switching the keyboard layout is Command-
Space, but the Mac driver never sees the Space key press. So, Wine only sees
a press and release of Alt, which puts focus on the menu bar. This prevents
that focus change.
The code had previously set the cursor back to the standard arrow and unhid
it when it left all app windows. Now it restores the cursor image that the
app set and re-hides it if necessary when it moves back over any app window.
Some events get queued for all GUI-connected threads but are only processed
by the first to dequeue them. Other threads which tend their event queue
discard such already-processed events. However, some threads may be
connected to the GUI but never tend their event queue. To prevent such
threads from accumulating zombie events, the zombies are cleared each time a
new event is queued.
This fixes a problem where windows could spontaneously re-minimize after
being unminimized. Cocoa would see the window unminimize. It would queue
a WINDOW_DID_UNMINIMIZE event. While that event was pending, Wine might do
something which caused set_cocoa_window_properties() to be called and tell
Cocoa to conform itself to the current Win32 state. The current Win32 state
still had the window minimized, so Cocoa would re-minimize the window. It
would even discard the WINDOW_DID_UNMINIMIZE event.
Cocoa would automatically do this for a normal app. However, the Mac driver
makes all of its windows inherit from NSPanel and Cocoa ignores panels for
this feature.
They show up in the taskbar on Windows 7. Selecting them from there is
meaningful and useful, as is selecting them from the Window menu.
In addition to just switching among windows from that menu, this is also
important to recovering a minimized window if the user has configured their
system preferences to minimize windows into the process's dock icon (rather
than as separate dock icons).
The Mac driver captures the displays when the program changes the display
mode. If the user types Command-Tab to switch away, it resets the displays
to their original modes and releases them. However, if they switched back,
it didn't restore the mode to what the program had set, so the program often
showed the game window in a corner of the screen with the top behind the Mac
menu bar.
Cocoa won't order a minimized window out of the screen list using -orderOut:.
This leaves a window that should be hidden still visible in the Dock, where
it can be unminimized.
That event can confuse things if the program switches focus from A to B and
then back to A and then processes events. It will get an event saying that
A lost focus in Cocoa, check that A does indeed have current focus in Wine,
and so switch focus away from it (to the desktop window). (It then gets an
event that B lost focus, but that does nothing at that point.)
This matches what Cocoa does when determining how to handle an event so that,
for example, our test if a click is in the window grow box corresponds to
whether Cocoa will run an internal mouse-tracking loop to resize the window
when we pass it the event. This fixes a problem where both Cocoa and user32
would try to run a resize loop and the cursor would get "stuck" resizing the
window after the button was released.
It's fairly common in Mac keyboard layouts that, if you type a dead key twice,
the second key press will both produce a non-dead character and also
perpetuate the dead-key state. For example, with the U.S. layout, Option-E,
E will produce "" and Option-E, Option-E, E will produce "". Windows
keyboard layouts don't tend to do this. The second key press produces the
non-dead character and clears the dead-key state.
The Cocoa parent-child relationship has undesirable side effects and bugs. In
the general case, it's the only way to maintain the z-order of owned windows
relative to their owner. But when the owner is non-topmost and an owned
window is topmost, the Cocoa window level will enforce that and we don't
need it.
It may be necessary to reorder to some extent because the clicked window is
behind a sibling at the same level, but that shouldn't move it later in the
list than higher-level siblings.
Cocoa gets buggy if the list of child windows isn't in z-order.
The right place may not be the end of the list of Cocoa child windows if some
of the siblings are at a higher window level (i.e. floating if the clicked
window is not).
For keys pressed in combination with Command, -[NSApplication sendEvent:]
simply doesn't pass the key-up event through to the window. We have to
track which keys we've told Wine are pressed because Cocoa may consume
key-downs that trigger menus or system behaviors.
We generally prevent Cocoa from making our windows key (focused) so that
Wine can be in control. However, after unminimizing, Wine believes the
window is already focused but Cocoa doesn't, so key presses just cause beeps.
This improves the animation of the window unminimizing from the Dock in some
cases. The window would often be blank or, for shaped windows, invisible
during that animation.
