- Use the object referenced in `BMEditMesh` as the `ghash` key to save the bvhtrees in cache;
- Create a boundbox around edit_mesh to test the snap before creating bvhtree;
- Save the `edit_mesh`s bvhtree in the mesh bvh_cache;
This is a part of the D3504.
BLI_bvhkdop functions were not made to work with zero-leaf trees.
Perhaps a better solution would be to modify BLI_bvhkdop to work with zero leaf trees.
But this solution of returning NULL was already used for bvhtrees of looptris.
- When returning the number of items in a collection use BLI_*_len()
- Keep _size() for size in bytes.
- Keep _count() for data structures that don't store length
(hint this isn't a simple getter).
See P611 to apply instead of manually resolving conflicts.
This was... horribly wrong, CDDM will often *not* need to allocate
anything to return arrays of mesh items! Just check whether array
pointer is NULL.
Also, remove `DM_get_looptri_array`, that one is useless currently,
`dm->getLoopTriArray` will always return cached array (computing it if
needed).
The release of these arrays should be the programmer's discretion since these arrays can continue to be used.
Only the expanded functions `bvhtree_from_mesh_edges_ex` and `bvhtree_from_mesh_looptri_ex` are currently being used in blender (in mesh_remap.c), and from what I could to analyze, these changes can prevent a crash.
Instead of reference the vertex first and test the bitmap afterwards. Test the bitmap first and reference the vertex after.
In a mesh with 31146 vertices and the entire bitmap disabled, the loop time is 243% faster
With all bitmap enabled, the time becomes 463473% faster!!!
One possible reason for this huge difference in peformance is that maybe the compiler is not putting the function "BM_vert_at_index" inline (I dont know if buildbot do this, but it's good to investigate).
changes in BLI_kdopbvh:
- `BLI_bvhtree_find_nearest_to_ray` now takes is_ray_normalized and scale argument.
- `BLI_bvhtree_find_nearest_to_ray_angle` has been added (use for perspective view).
changes in BLI_bvhutils:
- `bvhtree_from_editmesh_edges_ex` was added.
changes in math_geom:
- `dist_squared_ray_to_seg_v3` was added.
other changes:
- `do_ray_start_correction` is no longer necessary to snap to verts.
- the way in which the test of depth was done before is being simulated in callbacks.
Separate the creation of trees from EditMesh from the creation of trees from DerivedMesh.
This was meant to simplify the API, but didn't work out so well.
`bvhtree_from_mesh_*` actually is working as `bvhtree_from_derivedmesh_*`.
This is inconsistent with the trees created from EditMesh. Since for create them does not use the DerivedMesh.
In such cases the dm is being used only to cache the tree in the struct DerivedMesh. What is immediately released once
bvhtree is being used in functions that change(tag) the DM cleaning the cache.
- Use a filter function so users of SnapObjectContext can define how edit-mesh elements are handled.
- Remove em_evil.
- bvhtree of EditMesh is now really cached in the snap functions.
- Code becomes organized and easier to maintain.
This is an important patch for future improvements in snapping functions.
