12:21:50 jackdaniel hurrey, drag and drop rewrites looks now like something that can be finished within a few hours

12:26:16 jackdaniel (generally if they hadn't been such a drag (for me) then this estimate would be applicable from start to finish ,p)

13:41:39 cmack jackdaniel: I'm happy to help do some regression hunting and file issues when it would be helpful before the release.

13:53:20 jackdaniel cmack: sounds great! thanks; I'll let you know when I'm done;

13:53:59 jackdaniel generally I need to finish drag-and-drop (technically done), then fix one regression I'm aware of

13:54:30 jackdaniel then move repaint queues to have one per frame (and not one per port)

13:55:17 jackdaniel and finally rewrite functions handling phases in repaint loop as actual generic functions

13:56:27 jackdaniel generally event loop will call handle-event on incoming events, while repaint-loop will call update-sheet, layout-sheet and repaint-sheet (in this order) at constant intervals (i.e 1/60s) on enqueued requests

14:14:01 cmack jackdaniel: ok, looking forward to it... are the intervals truly constant or can they be configured? I'm still thinking ahead (for myself) about how wayland uses the wl_surface::frame event to signal a client (app) that it's ready for a new image/frame

14:14:57 jackdaniel when I'm done with the prototype we can discuss it (i.e if you hint a resource I can study re requirements I'll think whether we can adjust to it, and how)

14:15:17 cmack ok sounds good

14:15:18 jackdaniel intervals can be configured in a sense that you can change the fps currently

14:15:50 jackdaniel but technically before frames I'm currently doing something in a spirit of (sleep remaining-time)

14:16:47 jackdaniel as a "later thing" I want to introduce a third buffer to cater to exposure events without calling handle-repaint; perhaps that's what will be a good thing to hook into this "give me a ready frame"

14:17:19 jackdaniel but, at least at this moment, it is not something I'm focused on

14:17:41 jackdaniel (and didn't throughfully think about the idea)

14:22:50 cmack ok, I'll continue to think on it until it's time to discuss.

15:55:43 jackdaniel sigh: https://codeberg.org/McCLIM/McCLIM/issues/1407 (unrelated issue manifests even in master)

15:55:53 jackdaniel any taker? :3
