Avoiding the Logging Performance Hit
Sometimes you have a function or a method which more often throws away its arguments than actually uses them. Quite possibly the most common example of this situation is logging. Often you'll see a snippet like this:log.Debug("Processing " + index + " of...

DBus and Threads
Sometimes you'll be using Dbus with threads and notice intermittent segfaults with stack traces like this;#0 0xb4d58d29 in _dbus_watch_invalidate (watch=0x0) at dbus-watch.c:147#1 0xb4d57066 in free_watches (transport=0x979c0d0) at...

Compiling D Source is Easy
There are two compilers available for D. The original D compiler (the one written by Walter) is DMD. It has an open-source front-end (the part that generate the IL) and a proprietary, closed-source back-end (the part that converts the IL into machine...

Different People
Being There warms my heart for several reasons. One of the most notable is that Hal Ashby managed to turn a Cheech and Chong song into some kind of religious experience with umbrellas. There is also the unexpected vignette during the ending, which many...

Embedding Python in D
Oooooooooh.It's some snakes.It's some snakes.A while back I began spending some time acquainting myself with D. For those who don't know, D is a relatively new system programming language with all kinds of interesting features like very flexible garbage...

Make scrolling tick by device pixels
Make scrolling tick by device pixels Instead of converting a device offset into a page offset and then converting back when positioning layers, keep scroll offsets in device pixels. We still do conversions when calculating the scroll offset for pinch...
Martin Robinson01/08/2014Remove CompositorData::add_child
Remove CompositorData::add_child The contents of this method have dwindled to two statements. Just remove the method now.
Martin Robinson01/08/2014Rename Compositor::ask_for_tiles to send_buffer_requests_for_all_layers
Rename Compositor::ask_for_tiles to send_buffer_requests_for_all_layers This name better reflects what the method does.
Martin Robinson01/08/2014Push get_buffer_requests_recursively into rust-layers
Push get_buffer_requests_recursively into rust-layers Also do some reorganization and abstraction in IOCompositor now that we do not have to borrow self.scene.root.
Martin Robinson01/08/2014Layer bounds and buffer requests should use layer coordinates
Layer bounds and buffer requests should use layer coordinates Instead of passing a scaling factor down to rust-layers and keeping all layers in page coordinates, work in layer coordinates. This is much more natural, as the compositor and rust-layer...
