This is to be used from the Outliner, when dragging and dropping
collections from the Active Render Layer
It also includes a cleanup on the outliner so it calls the new
functions. Note: the outliner still needs fix to allow all the
functionality here exposed.
But this will be tackled by Julian Eisel later.
This feature was adding extra complexity to task scheduling
which required yet extra variables to be worried about to be
modified in atomic manner, which resulted in following issues:
- More complex code to maintain, which increases risks of
something going wrong when we modify the code.
- Extra barriers and/or locks during task scheduling, which
causes extra threading overhead.
- Unable to use some other implementation (such as TBB) even for
the comparison tests.
Notes about other changes.
There are two places where we really had to use that limit.
One of them is the single threaded dependency graph. This will
now construct a single-threaded scheduler at evaluation time.
This shouldn't be a problem because it only happens when using
debugging command line arguments and the code simply don't
run in regular Blender operation.
The code seems a bit duplicated here across old and new
depsgraph, but think it's OK since the old depsgraph is already
gone in 2.8 branch and i don't see where else we might want
to use such a single-threaded scheduler.
When/if we'll want to do so, we can move it to a centralized
single-threaded scheduler in threads.c.
OpenGL render was a bit more tricky to port, but basically we
are using conditional variables to wait background thread to
do all the job.
Can't say enough how much I hate those proxies... their duality (sharing
some aspects of both direct *and* indirect users) is a nightmare to handle. :(
It wasn't using old immediate mode, but was using
- client vertex arrays (obsolete)
- quads (obsolete)
- state attrib stack (obsolete)
- polygon mode (still allowed, but gross)
Nothing happen yet when it's supposed to insert the collection into
another one, that part will be handled by @dfelinto.
See gif for demo of how it works UI wise: {F500337}
Also fixed off-by-one error in utility function.
There are now only referenced in:
* drawobject.c
* particle_edit.c
* space_image.c (a single case to be handled on workspace branch)
* rigidbody_constraint.c (to be handled in the following commit)
Not really happy of per-pool threads limit, need to find better
approach to that. But at least it's possible to get rid of half
of the nastyness here by removing getter which was only used in
an assert statement.
That piece of code was already well-tested and this code becomes
obsolete in the new depsgraph and does no longer exists in blender
2.8 branch.
There were some issues with how we store outliner tree elements:
Apparently the only removable elements have been data-blocks so far.
When recreating the TreeElements, their TreeStoreElem instances were
mainly identified by their ID pointer. However non-data-blocks mostly
depend on an index. For collections, such an index isn't a reliable
measure though if we want to allow removing items. Depending on it for
identifying the TreeStoreElem instance would cause some quite noticeable
glitches (wrong highlights, two elements sharing highlight, etc).
For now I've solved that by actually removing the TreeStoreElem that
represents the removed element. A little limitation of this is that
after undoing the removal, some information might get lost, like
flags to store selection, or opened/closed state.
A better solution that would also fix this issue would be having a real
unique identifier for each non-data-block element, like an idname or even
its data-pointer. Not sure if we can get those to work reliable with
file read/write though, would have to investigate...
Also added a general Outliner tree traversal utility.
Based on the previous overlay shader from merwin.
This shader takes care of clipped vertex cases and do all edit mode face info in one pass (except face centers).
As the shading is done one the triangle itself the visual can't go beyond the surface of the mesh. That leads to half displayed edges on the outline of the mesh.
This problem can be fixed by a second pass.
This is work in progress.
This was causing blender to segfault.
We now add create a new collection and link to the layer before adding
the new object
(also included unittests, and requires updated lib/tests)
This adds an option to force fields of type "Force", which enables the
simulation of gravitational behavior (dist^-2 falloff).

Note that since there is no (efficient) ways to get arrays of
MVert/MEdge/etc. out of a BMesh, I refactored quite heavily internals of
BKE_mesh_render.
Now, when you do need acess to mesh data to generate cached batches, you
create an abstract struct from mesh (either Mesh or BMesh if available),
and then use advanced helpers to extract needed data, on a per-item
basis (no more handling of arrays of verts/edges/... in batches code).
This allows to:
* Avoid having to create arrays of BMesh elements.
* Take advantage of existing advanced BMesh topology and connectivity data.

So... Curve+shapekey was even more broken than it looked, this report was
actually a nice crasher (immediate crash in an ASAN build when trying to
edit a curve shapekey with some viewport rendering enabled).
There were actually two different issues here.
I) The less critical: rB6f1493f68fe was not fully fixing issues from
T50614. More specifically, if you updated obdata from editnurb
*without* freeing editnurb afterwards, you had a 'restored' (to
original curve) editnurb, without the edited shapekey modifications
anymore. This was fixed by tweaking again `calc_shapeKeys()` behavior in
`ED_curve_editnurb_load()`.
II) The crasher: in `ED_curve_editnurb_make()`, the call to
`init_editNurb_keyIndex()` was directly storing pointers of obdata
nurbs. Since those get freed every time `ED_curve_editnurb_load()` is
executed, it easily ended up being pointers to freed memory. This was
fixed by copying those data, which implied more complex handling code
for editnurbs->keyindex, and some reshuffling of a few functions to
avoid duplicating things between editor's editcurve.c and BKE's curve.c
Note that the separation of functions between editors and BKE area for
curve could use a serious update, it's currently messy to say the least.
Then again, that area is due to rework since a long time now... :/
Finally, aligned 'for_render' curve evaluation to mesh one - now
editing a shapekey will show in rendered viewports, if it does have some
weight (exactly as with shapekeys of meshes).
