This partially reverts commit 0b2d1badec
Post increment can deep-copy for C++ iterators, while in my own checks
GCC was able to optimize this to get the same output,
better follow C++ best practice and use pre-increment for iterators.
- added import of transparency and emission into principled BSDF Shader
- added support for importing all default collada material parameters
* diffuse
* emission
* index_of_refraction
* shininess (mapped to BSDF Roughness)
* reflectivity (mapped to BSDF Metallic)
* transparency + transparent mapped to BSDF Alpha)
* ambient (creates unconnected texture node)
* specular (creates unconnected texture node)
* reflective(creates unconnected texture node)
- added support for exporting collada material parameters:
* diffuse
* emission
* index_of_refraction
* shininess (mapped to BSDF Roughness)
* reflectivity (mapped to BSDF Metallic)
* transparency + transparent mapped to BSDF Alpha)
- prepared support for exporting the following parameters
but currently commented out:
* ambient (creates unconnected texture node)
* specular (creates unconnected texture node)
* reflective(creates unconnected texture node)
Problem: For now we only allow export of principled BSDF based
materials. I am not sure from where to get ambient, specular
and reflective as those values are not included in the
principled BSDF Shader (wip).
Added new feature: Collada: global axis rotation upon export (UI)
The new feature allows to specify the target rest coordinate system upon export.
This allows for example to export a character that is in Blender orientation (Y forward)
to match the Secondlife orientation where (-X forward)
- Refactor:Added new utility methods to collada_utils
Made BCMatrix class more powerfull
moved Blender related structures into new BlenderContext class
added class wrapper to encapsulate ExportSettings structure
Added blender context getters to ExportSettings
added access methods to BlenderContext into ExportSettings class
Moved class BCMatrix into BlenderContext
moved utility functions from collada_util into BlenderContext
replace own function for parenting by a call to ED_object_parent_set()
- Cleanup: removed obsolete parameters from methods
renamed parameters for better understanding
cleanup whitespace and indentation
removed obsolete comments
Convention was not to but after discussion on 918941483f we agree its
best to change the convention.
Names now mostly follow RNA.
Some exceptions:
- Use 'nodetrees' instead of 'nodegroups'
since the struct is called NodeTree.
- Use 'gpencils' instead of 'grease_pencil'
since 'gpencil' is a common abbreviation in the C code.
Other exceptions:
- Leave 'wm' as it's a list of one.
- Leave 'ipo' as is for versioning.
We already have different storages for cddata of verts, edges etc.,
'simply' do the same for the mask flags we use all around Blender code
to request some data, or limit some operation to some layers, etc.
Reason we need this is that some cddata types (like Normals) are
actually shared between verts/polys/loops, and we don’t want to generate
clnors everytime we request vnors!
As a side note, this also does final fix to T59338, which was the
trigger for this patch (need to request computed loop normals for
another mesh than evaluated one).

Differential Revision: https://developer.blender.org/D4407
- The Collada exporter did not take care of
material transparency when nodes are turned off.
- recent change to use ma->alpha_threshold seems to have
been wrong. transparency is now taken from ma->a when
nodes are turned off.
Turns out most of our 'local working copy' cases can use same set of
flags.
Note that this commit adds LIB_ID_COPY_CACHES to all our local meshes
copying, however this is no-op since that flag is unused during mesh
copying... We may want to add another set of flags without that one at
some point, but for now it would not be useful imho.
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.
There were at least three copies of those:
- OB_RECALC* family of flags, which are rudiment of an old
dependency graph system.
- PSYS_RECALC* which were used by old dependency graph system
as a separate set since the graph itself did not handle
particle systems.
- DEG_TAG_* which was used to tag IDs.
Now there is a single set, which defines what can be tagged
and queried for an update. It also has some aggregate flags
to make queries simpler.
Lets once and for all solve the madness of those flags, stick
to a single set, which will not overlap with anything or require
any extra conversion.
Technically, shouldn't be measurable user difference, but some
of the agregate flags for few dependency graph components did
change.
Fixes T58632: Particle don't update rotation settings
Most important changes are in the Animation exporter and Animation Importer.
There is still some cleaning up to be done. But the Exporter/Importer basically
work within Blender 2.8
Some details:
User Interface:
The interface has been reorganized to look more like the FBX interface.
New options in user interface:
* keep_keyframes:
When sampling the distance between 2 keyframes is defined by
the sampling rate. Furthermore the keyframes defined in the
FCurves are not exported. However when this option is enabled
then also the defined keyframes will be added to the exported fcurves
* keep_smooth_curves:
When sampling we do not use FCurves. So we also have no Curve handles
for smooth exporting. However when this option is enabled, Blender
does its best to recreate the handles for export. This is a very
experimental feature and it is know to break when:
- the exported animated objects have parent inverse matrices
different from the unit matrix
- The exported objects have negative scaling
There may be many other situations when this feature breaks.
This needs to be further tested. It may be removed later or replaced
by something less wonky.
BlenderContext:
is a new class that contains the bridge to Blender. It contains
pointers to the current export/import context plus derived values
of Depsgraph, Scene, Main
Reporting:
I reorganized the output on the Blender Console to become more
informative and more readable
Preservation of Item names:
name attributes are now encoded with XML entities. This makes
sure that i can export/import names exactly defined in the tool.
This affects material names, bone names and object names.
Hierarchy export:
* Object and Bone Hierarchies are now exported correctly
by taking the Blender parent/child hierarchy into account
* Export also not selected intermediate objects
Problem:
When we export an Object Hierarchy, then we must export
all elements of the hierarchy to maintain the transforms. This
is especially important when exporting animated objects, because the
animation curves are exported as relative curves based on the
parent-child hierarchy. If an intermediate animated object is missing
then the exported animation breaks.
Solution:
If the "Selected" Optioon is enabled, then take care
to also export all objects which are not selected and hidden,
but which are parents of selected objects.
Node Based Material Importer (wip):
Added basic support for Materials with diffuse color and
diffuse textures. More properties (opacity, emission) need
changes in the used shader.
Note: Materials are all constructed by using the principled BSDF shader.
Animation Exporter:
* Massive optimization of the Animation Bake tool (Animation Sampler).
Instead of sampling each fcurve separately, i now sample all
exported fcurves simultaneously. So i avoid many (many!)
scene updates during animation export.
* Add support for Continuous Acceleration (Fcurve handles)
This allows us to create smoother FCurves during importing Collada
Animation curves. Possibly this should become an option ionstead of
a fixed import feature.
* Add support for sampling curves (to bake animations)
* The animation sampler now can be used for any animation curve.
Before the sampler only looked at curves which are supported by
Standard Collada 1.4. However the Collada exporter currently
ignores all animation curves which are not covered by the 1.4.1
Collada Standards. There is still some room for improvements
here (work in progres)
Known issues:
* Some exports do currently not work reliably, among those
are the camera animations, material animations and light animations
those animations will be added back next (work in progres)
* Exporting animation curves with keyframes (and tangents)
sometimes results in odd curves (when parent inverse matrix is involved)
This needs to be checked in more depth (probably it can not be solved).
* Export of "all animations in scene" is disabled because the
Collada Importer can not handle this reliably at the
moment (work in progres).
* Support for Animation Clip export
Added one extra level to the exported animations
such that now all scene animations are enclosed:
<Animation name="id_name(ob)_Action">
<Animation>...</Animation>
...
</Animation>
Animation Importer:
* Import of animations for objects with multiple materials
When importing multiple materials for one object,
the imported material animation curves have all been
assigned to the first material in the object.
Error handling (wip):
The Importer was a bit confused as it sometimes ignored fatal
parsing errors and continued to import. I did my best to
unconfuse it, but i believe that this needs to be tested more.

That kind of implicit includes should really only be done when totally,
absolutely necessary, and ideally only with rather simple 'second-level'
headers.
Otherwise not being explicit with includes always end up biting in
unexpected ways...
