    Add support for X11 primary selection (#6132) X11 has a so-called primary selection, which you can use by marking text and middle-clicking elsewhere to copy the marked text. There are 3 new API functions in `SDL_clipboard.h`, which work exactly like their clipboard equivalents. ## Test Instructions * Run the tests (just a copy of the clipboard tests): `$ ./test/testautomation --filter Clipboard` * Build and run this small application: <details> ```C #include <SDL.h> #include <unistd.h> #include <stdbool.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <time.h> void print_error(const char *where) { const char *errstr = SDL_GetError(); if (errstr == NULL || errstr[0] == '\0') return; fprintf(stderr, "SDL Error after '%s': %s\n", where, errstr); SDL_ClearError(); } int main() { char text_buf[256]; srand(time(NULL)); SDL_Init(SDL_INIT_VIDEO); print_error("SDL_INIT()"); SDL_Window *window = SDL_CreateWindow("Primary Selection Test", SDL_WINDOWPOS_UNDEFINED, SDL_WINDOWPOS_UNDEFINED, 400, 400, SDL_WINDOW_SHOWN); print_error("SDL_CreateWindow()"); SDL_Renderer *renderer = SDL_CreateRenderer(window, -1, SDL_RENDERER_ACCELERATED); print_error("SDL_CreateRenderer()"); bool quit = false; unsigned int do_render = 0; while (!quit) { SDL_Event event; while (SDL_PollEvent(&event)) { print_error("SDL_PollEvent()"); switch (event.type) { case SDL_QUIT: { quit = true; break; } case SDL_KEYDOWN: { switch (event.key.keysym.sym) { case SDLK_ESCAPE: case SDLK_q: quit = true; break; case SDLK_c: snprintf(text_buf, sizeof(text_buf), "foo%d", rand()); SDL_SetClipboardText(text_buf); print_error("SDL_SetClipboardText()"); printf("clipboard: set_to=\"%s\"\n", text_buf); break; case SDLK_v: { printf("clipboard: has=%d, ", SDL_HasClipboardText()); print_error("SDL_HasClipboardText()"); char *text = SDL_GetClipboardText(); print_error("SDL_GetClipboardText()"); printf("text=\"%s\"\n", text); SDL_free(text); break; } case SDLK_d: snprintf(text_buf, sizeof(text_buf), "bar%d", rand()); SDL_SetPrimarySelectionText(text_buf); print_error("SDL_SetPrimarySelectionText()"); printf("primselec: set_to=\"%s\"\n", text_buf); break; case SDLK_f: { printf("primselec: has=%d, ", SDL_HasPrimarySelectionText()); print_error("SDL_HasPrimarySelectionText()"); char *text = SDL_GetPrimarySelectionText(); print_error("SDL_GetPrimarySelectionText()"); printf("text=\"%s\"\n", text); SDL_free(text); break; } default: break; } break; } default: { break; }} } // create less noise with WAYLAND_DEBUG=1 if (do_render == 0) { SDL_RenderPresent(renderer); print_error("SDL_RenderPresent()"); } do_render += 1; usleep(12000); } SDL_DestroyRenderer(renderer); SDL_DestroyWindow(window); SDL_Quit(); print_error("quit"); return 0; } ``` </details> * Use c,v,d,f to get and set the clipboard and primary selection. * Mark text and middle-click also in other applications. * For wayland under x: * `$ mutter --wayland --no-x11 --nested` * `$ XDG_SESSION_TYPE=wayland SDL_VIDEODRIVER=wayland ./<path_to_test_appl_binary>`
