Unfortunately, it is bit complex for me, to understand what are you
trying to do and why do you dancing with diff's instead of just
simple merge.<br>
<br>
Anyway, I gave you an edit-access to my repository. If you want, you
can work with it directly on your own branch. I hope, this will make
things simpler for you.<br>

Take look at my latest commit It now merged with latest master
version and successfully compiles with ./configure
--enable-spice-compositor. <br>
But unfortunately it doesn't work due to new spice API. I hope,
this evening it will!. <br>

Its doesn't used by spice, so if there no monitor renderer additions

Why? It is just another part of weston. If you don't need it just

About spice-server api I did't found good docs to make update simply and fast but with a fast search I found this xspice (similar project for xorg instead) commit that probably can be faster update some deprecrated spice functions:

<p style=" margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:0px; margin-right:0px; -qt-block-indent:0; text-indent:0px;">I don't have sufficent free time for try to change it and test build/use today.</p>

I spend much time for reading spice source code to understand its
API far in 2013. To understand it you have to read sources as I. I
remember that in fact spice protocol is - to say simple - drawing
API. You can draw stuff from spice-server on spice-client's screen.
Anyway we need to learn new api, reading example source code as I
did.<br>
<br>
I did simple <a href="https://github.com/ein-shved/qxl-test">example</a>
then to practice on spice API.<br>

After update to newer api I suppose will be good add also a required spice-server version check in configure based on newer api, I found this that seems will make fast see at what version was added any api:
<a moz-do-not-send="true" class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://cgit.freedesktop.org/spice/spice/tree/server/spice-server.syms">https://cgit.freedesktop.org/spice/spice/tree/server/spice-server.syms</a></p>

</p>
<p style=" margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:0px; margin-right:0px; -qt-block-indent:0; text-indent:0px;">
Another important note if you don't know it, spice-server recently is under heavy changes, latest version (0.13.0) is like a "devel snapshot".
Latest stable version that I think is good to use also with this project for now is 0.12.6.</p>

- in configure.ac some changes seems strange, including LIBS
and CFLAGS that <br>
seems "double" <br>
</blockquote>
I think this can be removed. Usually setting LIBS/CFLAGS and <br>
foo_save_LIBS/foo_save_CFLAGS is used for an AC_CHECK_* call,
which <br>
relies on LIBS and CFLAGS already being set. I guess there may
have <br>
been a call here which has since been removed. <br>

</blockquote>
There is no documentation on the change, no. <br>
<br>
As you can see, several functions have changed: <br>
- weston_output_finish_frame now takes a struct timespec
rather than <br>
an integer number of milliseconds (trivial conversion) <br>
- the output repaint function now returns an integer
marking success <br>
or failure <br>
- the compositor interface has now changed to
weston_backend, and <br>
you can see examples of the changes required in commit
954f183e <br>
<br>
Hope this helps: just pick out the warnings and errors one by
one, and <br>
try to figure them out - searching git commits for anything
relevant <br>
always helps - until you get something that builds. <br>
