Listing the "Blender Foundation" as copyright holder implied the Blender
Foundation holds copyright to files which may include work from many
developers.
While keeping copyright on headers makes sense for isolated libraries,
Blender's own code may be refactored or moved between files in a way
that makes the per file copyright holders less meaningful.
Copyright references to the "Blender Foundation" have been replaced with
"Blender Authors", with the exception of `./extern/` since these this
contains libraries which are more isolated, any changed to license
headers there can be handled on a case-by-case basis.
Some directories in `./intern/` have also been excluded:
- `./intern/cycles/` it's own `AUTHORS` file is planned.
- `./intern/opensubdiv/`.
An "AUTHORS" file has been added, using the chromium projects authors
file as a template.
Design task: #110784
Ref !110783.
A lot of files were missing copyright field in the header and
the Blender Foundation contributed to them in a sense of bug
fixing and general maintenance.
This change makes it explicit that those files are at least
partially copyrighted by the Blender Foundation.
Note that this does not make it so the Blender Foundation is
the only holder of the copyright in those files, and developers
who do not have a signed contract with the foundation still
hold the copyright as well.
Another aspect of this change is using SPDX format for the
header. We already used it for the license specification,
and now we state it for the copyright as well, following the
FAQ:
https://reuse.software/faq/
The goal is to solve confusion of the "All rights reserved" for licensing
code under an open-source license.
The phrase "All rights reserved" comes from a historical convention that
required this phrase for the copyright protection to apply. This convention
is no longer relevant.
However, even though the phrase has no meaning in establishing the copyright
it has not lost meaning in terms of licensing.
This change makes it so code under the Blender Foundation copyright does
not use "all rights reserved". This is also how the GPL license itself
states how to apply it to the source code:
<one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.>
Copyright (C) <year> <name of author>
This program is free software ...
This change does not change copyright notice in cases when the copyright
is dual (BF and an author), or just an author of the code. It also does
mot change copyright which is inherited from NaN Holding BV as it needs
some further investigation about what is the proper way to handle it.
Use a shorter/simpler license convention, stops the header taking so
much space.
Follow the SPDX license specification: https://spdx.org/licenses
- C/C++/objc/objc++
- Python
- Shell Scripts
- CMake, GNUmakefile
While most of the source tree has been included
- `./extern/` was left out.
- `./intern/cycles` & `./intern/atomic` are also excluded because they
use different header conventions.
doc/license/SPDX-license-identifiers.txt has been added to list SPDX all
used identifiers.

- Added space below non doc-string comments to make it clear
these aren't comments for the symbols directly below them.
- Use doxy sections for some headers.
Ref T92709
Surrounding includes with an 'extern "C"' block is not necessary anymore.
Also that made it harder to add any C++ code to some headers, or include headers
that have "optional" C++ code like `MEM_guardedalloc.h`.
I tested compilation on linux and windows (and got help from @LazyDodo).
If this still breaks compilation due to some linker error, the header containing
the symbol in question is probably missing an 'extern "C"' block.

Currently unused, but will allow to keep of an owner of the depsgraph.
Could also simplify other APIs in the future by avoiding to pass bmain
explicitly to relation update functions and things like that.
BF-admins agree to remove header information that isn't useful,
to reduce noise.
- BEGIN/END license blocks
Developers should add non license comments as separate comment blocks.
No need for separator text.
- Contributors
This is often invalid, outdated or misleading
especially when splitting files.
It's more useful to git-blame to find out who has developed the code.
See P901 for script to perform these edits.
Some summary of changes:
- Don't use DEG prefix for types and enumerator values:
the code is already inside DEG namespace.
- Put code where it locally belongs to: avoid having one
single header file with all sort of definitions in it.
- Take advantage of modern C++11 enabled by default.
Scene, view layer and mode are now set in the constructor and never changed.
Time is updated on frame changes to indicate which frame is being or has been
evaluated last.
This is a step towards making EvaluationContext obsolete.

The RenderResult struct still has a listbase of RenderLayer, but that's ok
since this is strictly for rendering.
* Subversion bump (to 2.80.2)
* DNA low level doversion (renames) - only for .blend created since 2.80 started
Note: We can't use DNA_struct_elem_find or get file version in init_structDNA,
so we are manually iterating over the array of the SDNA elements instead.
Note 2: This doversion change with renames can be reverted in a few months. But
so far it's required for 2.8 files created between October 2016 and now.

This is a final step of having proper ownership. Now selecting different
layers in the "top bar" will actually do what this is expected to do.
Surely, there are still things to be done under the hood, that will happen
in a less intrusive way.
Was never actually used and implementation seems to be slow: we shouldn't be
doing per-node evaluation hash lookups, adds too much overhead. We can instead
store statistics in the node itself, and maybe even group them somehow.
Ideally such a statistics should be user-friendly so riggers and animators
can see exactly what's happening.

This is a first step towards proper depsgraph "ownership", where
we would allow scene to be in multiple states dependent on active
workspace or scene layer.
This commit introduces a basic API to get proper dependency graph
for a given scene layer. It also renames scene->depsgraph to
depsgraph_legacy, so it's easier to search0-n-replace in the future.
This is mainly a maintenance commit which was aimed to make work with
this module more pleasant and solve such issues as:
- Annoyance with looong files, which had craftload in them
- Usage of STL for the data structures we've got in BLI
- Possible symbol conflicts
- Not real clear layout of what is located where
So in this commit the following changes are done:
- STL is prohibited, it's not really predictable on various compilers,
with our BLI algorithms we can predict things much better.
There are still few usages of std::vector, but that we'll be
solving later once we've got similar thing in BLI.
- Simplify foreach loops, avoid using const_iterator all over the place.
- New directory layout, which is hopefully easier to follow.
- Some files were split, some of them will be split soon.
The idea of this is to split huge functions into own files with
good documentation and everything.
- Removed stuff which was planned for use in the future but was never
finished, tested or anything.
Let's wipe it out for now, and bring back once we really start using
it, so it'll be more clear if it solves our needs.
- All the internal routines were moved to DEG namespace to separate
them better from rest of blender.
Some places now annoyingly using DEG::foo, but that we can olve by
moving some utility functions inside of the namespace.
While working on this we've found some hotspot in updates flush, so
now playback of blenrig is few percent faster (something like 96fps
with previous master and around 99-100fps after this change).
Not saying it's something final, there is still room for cleanup and
API simplification, but those might happen as a regular development
now without doing any global changes.
