/**
 * SECTION:gdkframeclock
 * @Short_description: Frame clock syncs painting to a window or display
 * @Title: Frame clock
 *
 * A #GdkFrameClock tells the application when to update and repaint a
 * window. This may be synced to the vertical refresh rate of the
 * monitor, for example. Even when the frame clock uses a simple timer
 * rather than a hardware-based vertical sync, the frame clock helps
 * because it ensures everything paints at the same time (reducing the
 * total number of frames). The frame clock can also automatically
 * stop painting when it knows the frames will not be visible, or
 * scale back animation framerates.
 *
 * #GdkFrameClock is designed to be compatible with an OpenGL-based
 * implementation or with mozRequestAnimationFrame in Firefox,
 * for example.
 *
 * A frame clock is idle until someone requests a frame with
 * gdk_frame_clock_request_phase(). At some later point that makes
 * sense for the synchronization being implemented, the clock will
 * process a frame and emit signals for each phase that has been
 * requested. (See the signals of the #GdkFrameClock class for
 * documentation of the phases. %GDK_FRAME_CLOCK_PHASE_UPDATE and the
 * #GdkFrameClock::update signal are most interesting for application
 * writers, and are used to update the animations, using the frame time
 * given by gdk_frame_clock_get_frame_time().
 *
 * The frame time is reported in microseconds and generally in the same
 * timescale as g_get_monotonic_time(), however, it is not the same
 * as g_get_monotonic_time(). The frame time does not advance during
 * the time a frame is being painted, and outside of a frame, an attempt
 * is made so that all calls to gdk_frame_clock_get_frame_time() that
 * are called at a “similar” time get the same value. This means that
 * if different animations are timed by looking at the difference in
 * time between an initial value from gdk_frame_clock_get_frame_time()
 * and the value inside the #GdkFrameClock::update signal of the clock,
 * they will stay exactly synchronized.
