* Proper handling of keyword arguments was implemented in Operators and ContextFunctions,
as well as in methods of Interface0D, Interface1D, Iterator, their subclasses, Noise and
IntegrationType.
* Operators' methods and functions in the ContextFunctions module were renamed from
CamelCase to lower cases + underscores. Style modules were updated accordingly.
* Additional code clean-up was also made.
Handling of keyword arguments in Python wrapper class constructors was revised.
This revision is mainly focused on Interface0D, Interface1D, Iterator, and
their subclasses, as well as a few additional view map component classes.
Implementation notes: Because of the extensive use of constructor overloading
in the underlying C++ classes, the corresponding Python wrappers try to parse
arguments through multiple calls of PyArg_ParseTupleAndKeywords() if needed.
The downside of this implementation is that most argument errors result in the
same error message ("invalid argument(s)") without indicating what is wrong.
For now this issue is left for future work.
* Now the instantiation of ViewVertex is prohibited since the underlying
C++ class is an abstract class.
* Removed the .cast_to_interface0diterator() method from CurvePointIterator
and StrokeVertexIterator. Instead the constructor of Interface0DIterator now
accepts the instances of these two iterator classes to construct a nested
Interface0DIterator instance that can be passed to Function0D functor objects.
Specifically, an iterator 'it' is passed to a functor 'func' as follows:
func(Interface0DIterator(it))
instead of:
func(it.cast_to_interface0diterator())
* Boolean arguments of class constructors only accept values of boolean type.
Input values of other types are considered as error.
* Additional code clean-up was made.
StrokeAttribute class methods were renamed from camel case to lower case plus underscore.
Also made changes to shaders.pyTVertexOrientationShader that uses the affected methods.
* The API syntax of StrokeVertex and StrokeAttribute was updated by means of getter/setter
properties instead of class methods. Python style modules (including the Parameter Editor
implementation) were updated accordingly.
* Code clean-up was done for a few Python style modules, mostly by removing duplicated
definitions of stroke shaders and fixing indentation.
(http://freestyle.sourceforge.net/doc/html/index.html) has been
incorporated into the Blender/Freestyle Python API implementation
in the form of Sphinx-based embedded docstrings. Some C++-specific
descriptions of classes and functions were revised so that they are
suitable for Python programmers. Missing docstrings were filled,
and sparse descriptions were extended. By means of the new
documentation system for Blender, an up-to-date Freestyle Python
API reference will be part of the Blender 2.5 documentation.
* Added to python/BPy_Convert.{cpp,h} 4 utility converters below for
better introspection-based automatic type conversion.
PyObject * Any_BPy_Interface0D_from_Interface0D( Interface0D& if0D );
PyObject * Any_BPy_Interface1D_from_Interface1D( Interface1D& if1D );
PyObject * Any_BPy_FEdge_from_FEdge( FEdge& fe );
PyObject * Any_BPy_ViewVertex_from_ViewVertex( ViewVertex& vv );
There are 4 corresponding converters without the "Any_" prefix. All
calls of them in the code base were replaced with these new converters
so that the introspection-based automatic conversion would take place
universally.
* python/BPy_Convert.{cpp,h}: Those C++ to Python converters having
had a "_ptr" suffix were renamed to a name without the suffix, and
their arguments were changed so as to take a reference (e.g.,
ViewVertex&) instead of a pointer (e.g., ViewVertex *). The changed
converters and their new function prototypes are listed below. These
converters now return a Python wrapper object that retains the passed
reference, instead of retaining a newly created C++ object by the
converters.
// Interface0D converters
PyObject * BPy_Interface0D_from_Interface0D( Interface0D& if0D );
PyObject * BPy_CurvePoint_from_CurvePoint( CurvePoint& cp );
PyObject * BPy_StrokeVertex_from_StrokeVertex( StrokeVertex& sv );
PyObject * BPy_SVertex_from_SVertex( SVertex& sv );
PyObject * BPy_ViewVertex_from_ViewVertex( ViewVertex& vv );
PyObject * BPy_TVertex_from_TVertex( TVertex& tv );
PyObject * BPy_NonTVertex_from_NonTVertex( NonTVertex& ntv );
// Interface1D converters
PyObject * BPy_Interface1D_from_Interface1D( Interface1D& if1D );
PyObject * BPy_Chain_from_Chain( Chain& c );
PyObject * BPy_FEdge_from_FEdge( FEdge& fe );
PyObject * BPy_FEdgeSharp_from_FEdgeSharp( FEdgeSharp& fes );
PyObject * BPy_FEdgeSmooth_from_FEdgeSmooth( FEdgeSmooth& fes );
PyObject * BPy_Stroke_from_Stroke( Stroke& s );
PyObject * BPy_ViewEdge_from_ViewEdge( ViewEdge& ve );
PyObject * BPy_directedViewEdge_from_directedViewEdge( ViewVertex::directedViewEdge& dve );
// some other converters
PyObject * BPy_ViewShape_from_ViewShape( ViewShape& vs );
PyObject * BPy_SShape_from_SShape( SShape& ss );
PyObject * BPy_FrsMaterial_from_FrsMaterial( FrsMaterial& m );
PyObject * BPy_StrokeAttribute_from_StrokeAttribute( StrokeAttribute& sa );
* Added a "borrowed" flag to the definitions of Python types being
used to wrap C++ components of Freestyle's internal data structures.
The flag indicates whether or not a Python wrapper object has a
reference to a C++ object that comprises the internal data structures.
The deallocation routines of the Python types check this flag and
release a wrapped C++ object only when it is not part of the internal
data structures. The following files were modified:
python/BPy_FrsMaterial.{cpp,h}
python/BPy_Interface0D.{cpp,h}
python/BPy_Interface1D.{cpp,h}
python/BPy_SShape.{cpp,h}
python/BPy_StrokeAttribute.{cpp,h}
python/BPy_ViewShape.{cpp,h}
python/Interface0D/BPy_CurvePoint.cpp
python/Interface0D/BPy_SVertex.cpp
python/Interface0D/BPy_ViewVertex.cpp
python/Interface0D/CurvePoint/BPy_StrokeVertex.cpp
python/Interface0D/ViewVertex/BPy_NonTVertex.cpp
python/Interface0D/ViewVertex/BPy_TVertex.cpp
python/Interface1D/BPy_FEdge.cpp
python/Interface1D/BPy_FrsCurve.cpp
python/Interface1D/BPy_Stroke.cpp
python/Interface1D/BPy_ViewEdge.cpp
python/Interface1D/Curve/BPy_Chain.cpp

python/Interface1D/FEdge/BPy_FEdgeSmooth.cpp
* view_map/Interface[01]D.h, python/BPy_Interface[01]D.cpp: Removed
from the Interface0D and Interface1D C++ classes a back pointer to a
Python wrapper object and all "director" calls. These classes (and
their subclasses) are used to build Freestyle's main data structures
(such as a view map and strokes) and their class hierarchy is static.
Python wrappers of these C++ classes are only used to access the data
structures from the Python layer, and not intended to extend the data
structures by subclassing the Python wrappers. Without the necessity
of subclassing in the Python layer, the back pointer to a wrapping
Python object and "director" calls would be useless (actually they
were not used at all), so they were all removed.
* python/Director.{cpp,h}: Removed the definitions of directors that
were no longer used.
* stroke/Stroke.{cpp,h}: Removed an (unused) back pointer to a Python
wrapper object.
* python/BPy_ViewMap.cpp: Fixed a possible null pointer reference.
* python/Interface1D/BPy_FEdge.cpp: Fixed parameter checking in
FEdge___init__().
built-in types (the first was in revision 21877). When an exception
has raised within from the __init__ method of a user-defined class
derived from a built-in type (e.g., UnaryPredicate0D and
BinaryPredicate1D), some member variables of the base type are
left uninitialized, leading to a null pointer reference in the
"__dealloc__" function in the base type. To avoid this, pointer
checking was added in the deallocators of those built-in types that
can be used to define a subclass by a user.
Now the following methods in the Freestyle Python API accept
not only Blender.Mathutils.Vector instances but also lists and
tuples having an appropriate number of elements.
FrsNoise::turbulence2()
FrsNoise::turbulence3()
FrsNoise::smoothNoise2()
FrsNoise::smoothNoise3()
SVertex::__init__()
SVertex::setPoint3D()
SVertex::setPoint2D()
SVertex::AddNormal()
FEdgeSharp::setNormalA()
FEdgeSharp::setNormalB()
FEdgeSmooth::setNormal()
CalligraphicShader::__init__()
StrokeAttribute::setAttributeVec2f()
StrokeAttribute::setAttributeVec3f()
StrokeAttribute::setColor()
StrokeVertex::setPoint()
* Added the following converters for the sake of the improvements
mentioned above.
Vec2f_ptr_from_PyObject()
Vec3f_ptr_from_PyObject()
Vec3r_ptr_from_PyObject()
Vec2f_ptr_from_PyList()
Vec3f_ptr_from_PyList()
Vec3r_ptr_from_PyList()
Vec2f_ptr_from_PyTuple()
Vec3f_ptr_from_PyTuple()
Vec3r_ptr_from_PyTuple()
Those converters with the suffixes _PyList and _PyTuple accept
only lists and tuples having an appropriate number of elements,
respectively, while those with the suffix _PyObject accept lists,
tuples, or Blender.Mathutils.Vector instances.
* Fixed a null pointer reference in Interface0D___dealloc__().
* Corrected the names of 3 methods in the FEdgeSmooth class.
