Adds a second renderer implementation to the nested compositor example that creates a subsurface for each of the client's surfaces. The client buffers are directly attached to the subsurface using the EGL_WL_create_wayland_buffer_from_image extension instead of blitting them in the redraw_handler. The new renderer is always used if the parent compositor supports the wl_subcompositor protocol and the EGL extension is available. Otherwise it will fall back to the blit renderer.
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.
