The first advantage of this new API is that it is per-output instead of global to the gl_renderer instance. This means that different windows can have different titles, different button states, etc. The new api also uses four textures (one for each side) instead of one. This allows you to draw real borders with text and buttons in them instead of a simple image that gets streached. Images will be scaled as needed, so the right and left can be one pixel tall if desired. Signed-off-by: Jason Ekstrand <jason@jlekstrand.net>
Weston Weston is the reference implementation of a Wayland compositor, and a useful compositor in its own right. Weston has various backends that lets it run on Linux kernel modesetting and evdev input as well as under X11. Weston ships with a few example clients, from simple clients that demonstrate certain aspects of the protocol to more complete clients and a simplistic toolkit. There is also a quite capable terminal emulator (weston-terminal) and an toy/example desktop shell. Finally, weston also provides integration with the Xorg server and can pull X clients into the Wayland desktop and act as a X window manager. Refer to http://wayland.freedesktop.org/building.html for buiding weston and its dependencies.
