orientedViewEdgeIterator.
* Simplified Python-related error handling in C++ class definitions.
The definitions of the following C++ methods were simplified and most
code segments using the C/Python API were moved to Director.cpp.
ChainingIterator::init()
ChainingIterator::traverse()
UnaryPredicate0D::operator()()
UnaryPredicate1D::operator()()
BinaryPredicate0D::operator()()
BinaryPredicate1D::operator()()
UnaryFunction0D::operator()()
UnaryFunction1D::operator()()
StrokeShader.shade()
* Moved part of the introspection-based automatic type conversion code
from BPy_Interface0DIterator.cpp and Director.cpp to BPy_Convert.cpp
for the sake of better code organization.
* Fixed an uninitialized member in StrokeVertexIterator___init__().
AdjacencyIterator::isBegin() and AdjacencyIterator::isEnd() always
returned a False value and printed a "not implemented" warning message.
This caused an infinite loop in a few chaining iterators, resulting in
a crash of the program. The origin of the issue seemed to be a fact
that in the C++ layer, the AdjacencyIterator class had not properly
overloaded the definitions of the methods in the Iterator superclass.
The fix here looks okay, although I'm not sure why this inconsistency
was not addressed for a long time.
propagation up to the toplevel error handler in BPY_txt_do_python_Text().
Before these changes were made, the operator() methods of predicates
and functions, for example, returned a value of various types such as
bool, double and Vec2f. These returned values were not capable to
represent an error state in many cases.
Now the operator() methods always return 0 on normal exit and -1 on
error. The original returned values are stored in the "result" member
variables of the predicate/function classes.
This means that if we have a code fragment like below:
UnaryPredicate1D& pred;
Interface1D& inter;
if (pred(inter)) {
/* do something */
}
then we have to rewrite it as follows:
UnaryPredicate1D& pred;
Interface1D& inter;
if (pred(inter) < 0)
return -1; /* an error in pred() is propagated */
if (pred.result) {
/* do something */
}
Suppose that pred is a user-defined predicate in Python, i.e. the predicate
is likely error-prone (especially when debugging the predicate). The first
code fragment shown above prevents the proper error propagation because
the boolean return value of UnaryPredicate1D::operator() cannot inform the
occurrence of an error to the caller; the second code fragment can.
In addition to the operator() methods of predicates and functions, similar
improvements have been made to all other C++ API functions and methods that
are involved in the execution of user-defined Python code snippets. Changes
in the signatures of functions and methods are summarized as follows (note
that all subclasses of listed classes are also subject to the changes).

Other methods could easily be supported in the future. The method now works as planned for the contour style. For style modules with Python shaders, there still is a problem that I will fix right away.
- getExactTypeName()
- increment()
- decrement()
- isBegin()
- isEnd()
Contrary to previously stated, I am reverting back to implementing iterators in the (Python) API, for different reasons:
- it will make testing quicker to achieve, as I won't have to recode a big chunk of the original Python files
- it will be a base for API refactoring
- it won't prevent the use a list-based approach later (it is simple to get it from the Iterator)
