The following warnings are printed to stderr, which I haven't seen
previously. Maybe canBecomeKeyWindow should be implemented?

I think this could be related to tab-bar-mode (C-x t 2, ...), which I
started using today. I'm also observing frequest beach balls (freezes)
with tabs.

Beach balls of death, i.e. Emacs doesn't seem to recover.

Odd, Apple's documentation says:

    The value of this property is YES if the window can become the key
    window, otherwise, NO.
    
    Attempts to make the window the key window are abandoned if the
    value of this property is NO. The value of this property is YES if
    the window has a title bar or a resize bar, or NO otherwise.

Is there anything unusual about your frames?

I don't have the first clue about this one. NSTextInputClient has
apparently been around since macOS 10.5, and I haven't heard of this
problem before... EmacsView *should* conform to NSTextInputClient
because it's a subclass of NSView.

Please try reverting 6acb3c5b05a7b9fb32a5336e1bb740f527571ae9. I
expect that'll fix the freezing, but I don't know about the others.

I have menu-bar-mode, toolbar-mode, scroll-bar-mode nil, and I use 1
frame in full screen.

I also tried to use tabs today. That's when I noticed the messagers,
because I started Emacs in LLDB to maybe get an impression where the
freezes come frame with tabs. (No luck so far.)

Don't know how tabs are implemented, maybe these are also some NS
widget/view?

This also appears when never using tabs in a session, BTW.

I did revert the commit, but I now think, the freezes might not be
related to this all:

When trying to start Emacs after the revert, Emacs froze. I have a
desktop file that loads Emacs' frame.h. And Emacs freezes only if I load
eglot in my init file, and put eglot-ensure in c-mode-common-hook.

The other freezes I saw yesterday were also while doing C stuff, so they
could be related to using Eglot as well.

Maybe it's some change in Eglot, or, below that, in Emacs process code?
If someone knows if something changed in Eglot and/or Emacs in that
department, I'd be grateful.

Found out how to reproduce this with emacs -Q. In scratch, eval

  (make-frame (list (cons 'parent-frame (selected-frame))
		    (cons 'no-accept-focus t)))

This looks to me like some function in ELPA package consult uses
no-accept-focus t, so that nsterm.m returns NO from canBecomeKeyWindow.
Consult with posframe seems to work anyway, so...

This doesn't seem to be related to the other warning. To reproduce,
start emacs -Q from a terminal and switch focus between Emacs and
Terminal.  Of course, I have no idea either what it means either.

The commit didn't make a difference, as far as the 2 warnings are
concerned.

With the freezes I'm no step further, BTW, but that's a different
subject, I guess.

FYI, it's actually posframe. I've submitted an issue for that

We should be able to create a frame without the system throwing out
errors, though. I wonder if this is something we're doing (like
makeKeyAndOrderFront being called on the new frame and it not checking
canBecomeKeyWindow) or if there's some other step we need to take to
prevent this. I'm fairly sure that I've never seen these warnings so
presumably they're new since 10.14.

You are thinking of this in nsterm.m?

I've now compared Apple's docss at

  https://developer.apple.com/documentation/appkit/nstextinputclient

with what's in nsterm.m, and I think it's indeed different. (Add usual
disclaimer that I know neither ObjC nor NS.)

  Apple:
  func setMarkedText(Any, selectedRange: NSRange, replacementRange: NSRange)
  Replaces a specified range in the receiver’s text storage with the given string and sets the selection.
  Required

  nsterm.m
  - (void)setMarkedText: (id)aString selectedRange: (NSRange)selRange

  func validAttributesForMarkedText() -> [NSAttributedString.Key]
  Returns an array of attribute names recognized by the receiver.
  Required

  - (NSArray *)validAttributesForMarkedText

  func attributedSubstring(forProposedRange: NSRange, actualRange: NSRangePointer?) -> NSAttributedString?

  - (NSAttributedString *)attributedSubstringFromRange: (NSRange)theRange

  func insertText(Any, replacementRange: NSRange)
  Inserts the given string into the receiver, replacing the specified content.
  Required

  - (void)insertText: (id)aString

Stopped here.

Yes. I think it's the only place we actually call makeKeyWindow
ourselves, so perhaps it should have a test. Could be worth it just to
see if it makes the messages go away.

So I guess just something like

    if ([self canBecomeKeyWindow])
      [self makeKeyWindow];

Alas, that didn't work. I replaced the whole method body with the 2
lines, but then the Emacs frame wouldn't show up on start. There are
some calls to makeKeyWindow in other .m files, BTW.

The attached patch fixes this for me, and seems logical.

Apple's documentation says

  Important
  
  NSTextInput protocol is slated for deprecation. Please use the
  NSTextInputClient protocol instead.

I guess that's the reason for the warning, and we should switch to using
NSTextInputClient.

Does this mean the patch you just posted is no longer relevant or
desirable?

No, there are 2 kinds of warnings, with two different reasons.
The patch I sent is for the warning regarding makeKeyWindow.

This mail concerns

  2024-07-26 12:38:12.984973+0200 emacs[61974:18565128] [CursorUI]
  -[TUINSCursorUIController activate:]: EmacsView doesn't conform to
  NSTextInputClient protocol.

And it looks like we have to switch to using NSTextInputClient at some
point instead of using NSTextInput.

FYI, up at the top right of the Apple docs you can change from Swift
to Objective C, which will probably make comparisons easier.

Looks that way. AFAICT NSTextInputClient should be available on all
versions of macOS we support and also in GNUstep, although it can be
hard to tell which versions of GNUstep support what.

Some of these functions are just used for normal input, but many of
them are used exclusively for macOS input methods.

Ah thanks, I didn't see that!

I find Apple's documentation of the protocol pretty bad, to say the
least, and examples seem to be lacking completely. Don't know if I can
pull that off.

Yeah, I was trying to work out what the actual differences are between
them and I suspect they're fairly minimal, but I don't know how we
should handle insertText:replacementRange: vs the current insertText:,
for example.

The new one takes a range and the old one doesn't. IMO it's none of
the window system's business where we insert the text, so do we just
ignore it? That might cause issues if we're dealing with the language
input stuff, so we might need to fiddle with that a bit (it was mostly
contributed by someone who actually used it).

I would agree that Apple's documentation is abysmal. AFAICT most new
features are exclusively documented in WWDC talks, so if you're not
immersed in the Apple eco-system it can be very hard to keep track of
what's changed. I assume that's some sort of marketing ploy.

Yeah, could be. Although I wonder what advantage they expect from making
such stuff effectively a secret :-/.

BTW, I found a github repo with lots of Cocoa samples which might be of
help at some point. This one is about NSTextInputClient, it seems:

  https://github.com/HelmutJ/CocoaSampleCode/tree/master/TextInputView

I've read it, but without any further background I find it hard to
understand. Maybe it's helpful for you, though. It does do something
with these ranges, for example.

Companies that develop proprietary software for macOS can probably
fund courses for their employees, or buy auxiliary documentation that
is not available for free, or ask Apple questions and get answers,
something that could be available only for those who have contracts
with Apple.
