This was necessary due to a bug/design issue between Glibmm and Glib (see https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=561885)
but the problem needs to be managed by the *creator* of the IOSource and that has now moved inside CrossThreadChannel.
Several DEBUG_TRACE changes to help identify race conditions;
git-svn-id: svn://localhost/ardour2/branches/3.0@12693 d708f5d6-7413-0410-9779-e7cbd77b26cf
* fixes Master Fader Touch button in the Mackie;
* implements a MasterFaderTouch global button;
* removes unused MackieControlProtocol::_transport_previously_rolling property;
* implements DeviceInfo::get_global_button() method;
* creates GlobalButtonsInfo and StripButtonsInfo types in DeviceInfo;
* implements Surface::_last_master_gain_written property to help master fader feedback;
* makes Surface respect _mcp.device_info().strip_cnt() to create master fader and when connecting signals for strips and master fader instead of using hardcoded 8;
* removed a few unnecessary updates in Surface::turn_it_on();
* included master_gain_changed() in Surface::periodic();
* implemented MackieControlProtocol::master_fader_touch_press and
* MackieControlProtocol::master_fader_touch_release;
git-svn-id: svn://localhost/ardour2/branches/3.0@12631 d708f5d6-7413-0410-9779-e7cbd77b26cf
* delays Mackie's led initialization until the Mackie is actually ready to receive messages;
* at the button X function mapping customization interface in Preferences:
o show specific device names instead of global ones;
o mark the buttons that are actually available in the device with a *;
o included a bottom text explaining what the * means;
* created a DeviceInfo::get_global_button_name(Button::ID) method;
* included several DEBUG_TRACE in mackies code;
* renamed device buttons and groups according to the following logic: Mackie buttons are named exactly like a actual (mine) Mackie names them on the interface itself. Logic Control buttons are named exactly like they appear at Logic Pro 7.2.1 Dedicated Control Surface Support manual;
* improved timecode display (new format);
git-svn-id: svn://localhost/ardour2/branches/3.0@12582 d708f5d6-7413-0410-9779-e7cbd77b26cf
* setting a (arbitraty) limit to zoom out to prevent segfaults because out of memory condition;
* setting initial update of master fader, and read, play and stop leds on the Mackie;
* changed the timecode display char selection for update algorithm as chars are sent one by one and not all right most;
* implemented method of showing timecode at the mackie to better deal with the differences between Ardour's foramts and Mackie's, i.e, use spaces in place of the zeros that had no meaning;
* preventing timecode display updates when the surface isn't yet active.
git-svn-id: svn://localhost/ardour2/branches/3.0@12541 d708f5d6-7413-0410-9779-e7cbd77b26cf
* implements Metering on/off through Button::Read as per Seablade's suggestion. I choose this button as it's the "Show meters" button in Traktion;
* removes redundant code from Meter::update_transport_rolling();
* renames Meter::update_transport_rolling() to Meter::notify_metering_state_changed();
* renamed Surface::notify_transport_state_changed() to Surface::notify_metering_state_changed();
* renamed Strip::notify_transport_state_changed() to Strip::notify_metering_state_changed();
* created MackieControlProtocol::notify_metering_state_changed() and made MackieControlProtocol::notify_transport_state_changed() use it;
* implemented turning off of timecode display and two char display in Surface::zero_all ();
* implemented master fader zeroing in Surface::zero_all ();
* calling Surfaces->zero_all() at MackieControlProtocol destructor;
* implemented restore of 2nd LCD line content after metering being active.
