After quite a bit of searching, I finally found where the various UI functions were wrapped for use in Py Layouts.
For the reference of others, check out editors/interface/interface_api.c
also deprecated getActuators() and getSensors() for 'sensors' and 'actuators' attributes.
an example of getting every sensor connected to an object.
all_sensors = [s for c in ob.controllers for s in c.sensors]
1) Remove WITH_FREETYPE2 from code, so now blender always need freetype2
2) Remove the old bmfont
3) Remove ftfont and bFTGL library
4) Implement a new BLF_draw_default function for place that still need/use
the old BMF api.
I try to update both, scons and cmake, but I only can test with make, so
hope all work fine.
MSVC is broken, but I don't have Windows, things to search and fix are
any reference to WITH_FREETYPE2, FTGL and BMFONT (take in care that
blenkernel also have a BKE_bmfont.h, this don't have anything to do with bmfont).
Always have to link/include the freetype2 library
Remove any reference to libbmfont
Remove any reference to libftfont
Remove any reference to libbftgl (or libbFTGL)
patch from Alex Fraser (z0r)
eg.
- vec.xyz = vec.zyx
- vec.xy = vec.zw
- vec.xxy = vec.wzz
- vec.yzyz = vec.yxyx
See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swizzling_(computer_graphics)
made some minor modifications to this patch.
tested access times and adding 336 attributes to vectors doesn't make a noticeable differences to speed of existing axis attributes (x,y,z,w) - thanks to python dict lookups.
I added module clearing before there was checks for invalid python objects, so now its not needed for BGE Builtin types at least.
also made the builtin modules get re-used if they already exist and clear all user modules when the game engine finishes so with Module-Py-Controllers the referenced modules are at least up to date when pressing Pkey.
- fix own mistake with matrix slicing that would crash blender (from recent commit).
- fix 3 memory leaks from ascotan r4717 in the Mathutils.Quaternion(...) function.
* Headers and menus can now be created in python.
* Replaced the uiMenuItem functions to create menus with equivalent
uiItem functions using a layout, removing duplicated code.
* More uiItem functions are now exposed to python.
* The text editor header, panels and one of its menus are now created
in space_text.py.
* Buttons window data context icon new changes depending on active
object.
Issues
* Icons are not wrapped yet, hardcoded ints at the moment.
* The ID browse template is unfinished.
- Removed the gen_utils.c dependency from Mathutils (since gen_utils wont go into 2.5 but mathutils will), repalced with python functions.
- removed Blender.Mathutils.Point, since it was not documented, the C api never used it, none of our scripts used it (and I never saw a script that used it).
Now it is possible to write a Python Expression using the variable names for driver targets (see mockup from initial commit) to substitute the appropriate values into the expression.
In the __global__ namespace for PyDriver evaluation, the following modules are available:
* __builtins__ - i.e. the builtin Python functions
* bpy - new Python API
* math or m - math module
For example:
Consider a driver with three targets, named: A, B, C
Now, you could write an expression like:
C if A < 5 else B
or even:
2*C if A < 5 or A > 20 else m.PI*B
Of course, you don't have to have three targets, the above was just an example.
TODO:
* Bring back way to load pydrivers.py
* Blender.Noise equivalent would be nice to have
P.S. I hope I haven't made any terrible Python API coding errors here (i.e. mem leaks, etc.)
- no source code since this is only useful if the epydocs contain code, ours are only docstrings.
- set inheritance to included so you dont have to search up the classes to find available functions.
- SConstruct, isolate the exception for importing epydoc.
- Added a print to the SConscript files otherwise it looks like nothings happening.
The Python API to define Panels and Operators is based on subclassing,
this makes that system more generic, and based on RNA. Hopefully that
will make it easy to make various parts of Blender more extensible.
* The system simply uses RNA properties and functions and marks them
with REGISTER to make them part of the type registration process.
Additionally, the struct must provide a register/unregister callback
to create/free the PanelType or similar.
* From the python side there were some small changes, mainly that
registration now goes trough bpy.types.register instead of
bpy.ui.addPanel.
* Only Panels have been wrapped this way now. Check rna_ui.c to see
how this code works. There's still some rough edges and possibilities
to make it cleaner, though it works without any manual python code.
* Started some docs here:
http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/BlenderDev/Blender2.5/RNATypeRegistration
* Also changed some RNA_property and RNA_struct functions to not
require a PointerRNA anymore, where they were not required (which
is actually the cause of most changed files).
* For new buttons spaces, automatically set horizontal/vertical
align depending on size, instead of free.
* Cleaned up the UI panel API. There's now a new uiBeginPanel
function which takes a panel type, and a uiEndPanel which takes
the final size. uiNewPanel* functions will be phased out.
* Animate the re-alignment when a panel size changes, e.g. when
enabling dupliframes.
* Load ui scripts from the release/ folder first if it is
available. This makes it easier to edit ui scripts, since it
will directly use the original files which avoids having to
run the build system.
* Improve editing of panel types while blender is open. That
means fixing some issues with lacking updates, overlaps, strange
ordering. It even does an animation now when the panel resizes.
Free python modules defined within the blendfile between loading scenes since they would end up accessing old GameLogic, Rasterizer modules as well as old game engine data in the module namespace which can cause problems.
- The armature weakref list was being incref'd twice then decrefed twice (incref and decref were used incorrectly), now only once. My 'fix' broke this.
- In bpy_pydriver_create_dict the 2 refs added from running PyDict_SetItemString twice were undone when clearing the dictionary (added comment)
- changed Py_XDECREF to Py_DECREF int BPY_pyconstraint_update and BPY_pyconstraint_target, Py_XDECREF checs for NULL value which would have crashed blender before it got to Py_XDECREF anyway.
- after every error is reported (PyErr_Print), remove sys.last_traceback and clear the error, I found this fixed certain crashes (usually when starting the game engine or exiting blender), so best do this all the time.
- header_text.c, CcdPhysicsEnvironment.cpp, KX_CameraActuator.cpp - remove some warnings.
own error, EXPP_incr_ret from a macro was an implicit decloration in BGL.c
For some reason this only crashed on 64bit linux
To my defence the BGE makes so many warnings that they become usless, need to improve the situation here at some point.
More cleanup!
- removed old UI font completely, including from uiBeginBlock
- emboss hints for uiBlock only have three types now;
Regular, Pulldown, or "Nothing" (only icon/text)
- removed old font path from Userdef
- removed all old button theme hinting
- removed old "auto block" to merge buttons in groups
(was only in use for radiosity buttons)
And went over all warnings. One hooray for make giving clean output :)
Well, we need uniform definitions for warnings, so people at least fix
them... here's the real bad bugs I found:
- in mesh code, a call to editmesh mixed *em and *me
- in armature, ED_util.h was not included, so no warnings for wrong call
to ED_undo_push()
- The extern Py api .h was not included in the bpy_interface.c, showing
a several calls using different args.
Further just added the missing includes, and removed unused vars.
Added occlusion culling capability in the BGE.
More info: http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Dev:Ref/Release_Notes/2.49/Game_Engine#BGE_Scenegraph_improvement
MSVC, scons, cmake, Makefile updated.
Other minor performance improvements:
- The rasterizer was computing the openGL model matrix of the objects too many times
- DBVT view frustrum culling was not properly culling behind the near plane:
Large objects behind the camera were sent to the GPU
- Remove all references to mesh split/join feature as it is not yet functional
