- 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).
Separate getting a normal attribute and getting __dict__, was having to do too a check for __dict__ on each class (multiple times per getattro call from python) when its not used that often.
In OSX, using spin/extrude etc. buttons, with more than 1 3d window open,
should turn cursor in a Question Mark to indicate you have to tell which
window to use (yes weak, but that's 2.4x!). OSX didn't support that type
of cursor, so no hint happened. Now uses the 'hand' icon for osx... no
nicer one is there afaik.
Fixes:
- HSV picker didn't work. Old option "No Hilite" for buttons made it not
being checked for input anymore. Needs to be on attention list!
- Node editor wasn't drawing buttons correctly. Two things to keep track
off:
- Use wmLoadIdentity(), not glLoadIdentity()
- I've added a wmPushMatrix() and wmPopMatrix() version for correct
wm-compatible push/pop. Only one level for now.
Restored the code to get this working. I haven't tested this to verify it, but it 'should' work...
Also, deleted old gpencil.c file in editors, since it was causing compiling errors.
Patch from Joshua, converting Grease Pencil to 2.5.
All GP data now is an ID block, allowing re-use, link and append.
For better contextual control within 2.5, these GP ID's will get
linked to actual data, like NodeTrees, Scenes, Images or Objects.
That will ensure Undo works, and opens up exciting new use cases
as well. :)
Patch note: on reading files, GPencils linked from editors will
get moved to the main library, using standard naming (indicating
where it was used), and with "Fake User" set. That way the user
can manually relink the pencils where appropriate.
We can check on just linking GP to some default, like 3d window
pencils to Scene? Nice to experiment with.
Notes for Joshua:
- for reading old GPencil, it has to use old code as well, meaning
to tread data as "indirect data, within another ID".
- Saving ID data means the chunk in file BHead needs the ID_GD code,
and not "DATA", which indicates 'indirect data'. That's the file
format spec.
- I've added do_versions_gpencil_2_50(), feel free to further tweak
things here, like linking things to scene or so.
- Formerly GPencil saved 2.50 files won't convert gpencil
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.)
- initialize pythons sys.argv in the blenderplayer
- ignore all arguments after a single " - " in the blenderplayer (like in blender), so args can be passed to the game.
- add a utility function PyOrientationTo() - to take a Py euler, quat or 3x3 matrix and convert into a C++ MT_Matrix3x3.
- add utility function ConvertPythonToMesh to get a RAS_MeshObject from a KX_MeshProxy or a name.
- Added error prefix arguments to ConvertPythonToGameObject, ConvertPythonToMesh and PyOrientationTo so the error messages can include what function they came from.
- deprecated brick.getOwner() for the "owner" attribute.
In much the same way as Keying Sets are defined in the Outliner, you can now select items in the Datablocks view of the Outliner, and use the D/Alt-D hotkeys to Add/Remove drivers (repectively). This is useful for settings which don't have buttons yet (in the buttons window).
- 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.
- More verbose error messages.
- BL_Shader wasnt setting error messages on some errors
- FilterNormal depth attribute was checking for float which is bad because scripts often expect ints assigned to float attributes.
- Added a check to PyVecTo for a tuple rather then always using a generic python sequence. On my system this is over 2x faster with an optmized build.
- comments to PyObjectPlus.h
- remove unused/commented junk.
- renamed PyDestructor to py_base_dealloc for consistency
- all the PyTypeObject's were still using the sizeof() their class, can use sizeof(PyObjectPlus_Proxy) now which is smaller too.
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).
This changes how the BGE classes and Python work together, which hasnt changed since blender went opensource.
The main difference is PyObjectPlus - the base class for most game engine classes, no longer inherit from PyObject, and cannot be cast to a PyObject.
This has the advantage that the BGE does not have to keep 2 reference counts valid for C++ and Python.
Previously C++ classes would never be freed while python held a reference, however this reference could be problematic eg: a GameObject that isnt in a scene anymore should not be used by python, doing so could even crash blender in some cases.
Instead PyObjectPlus has a member "PyObject *m_proxy" which is lazily initialized when python needs it. m_proxy reference counts are managed by python, though it should never be freed while the C++ class exists since it holds a reference to avoid making and freeing it all the time.
When the C++ class is free'd it sets the m_proxy reference to NULL, If python accesses this variable it will raise a RuntimeError, (check the isValid attribute to see if its valid without raising an error).
- This replaces the m_zombie bool and IsZombie() tests added recently.
In python return values that used to be..
return value->AddRef();
Are now
return value->GetProxy();
or...
return value->NewProxy(true); // true means python owns this C++ value which will be deleted when the PyObject is freed
Hiding faces is a editing option like selection and should not change rendering, it wasn't even working right because meshes without UVs ignored it.
I thought this was needed for compatibility with old files but just noticed this messes up 2 of the files in demos-2.42.zip
Other small changes...
- KX_Camera and KX_Light didnt have get/setitem access in their PyType definition.
- CList.from_id() error checking for a long was checking for -1 against an unsigned value (own fault)
- CValue::SpecialRelease was incrementing an int for no reason.
- renamed m_attrlist to m_attr_dict since its a PyDict type.
- removed custom getattro/setattro functions for KX_Scene and KX_GameObject, use py_base_getattro, py_base_setattro for all subclasses of PyObjectPlus.
- lowercase windows.h in VideoBase.cpp for cross compiling.
* Forgot to finish this code yesterday, dragging panels was
broken. This is fixed and new panels are now inserted after
the last added one, inbetween others rather than at the end.
