Many keyboard layouts (italian, spanish, german...) have direct access to '+' key on main
keyboard area (not the numpad one), ans x11 has own define for this key, so use it instead
of generating an unkown key event.
Note that we most likely have much more missing 'specific' keycodes for non-US keyboard layout,
but think since we already had a 'minus' keyevent, supporting 'plus' one is totally consistent.
And we had a spare space in our defined values just for it even!
This keyevent is only supported/generated by x11 and cocoa Ghost backends for now,
neither SDL nor win32 seem to have matching key events...
Historically blender had an audio sample rate of 44.1 kHz as default which is mostly popular because it's the sample rate of audio CDs. Audaspace kept using this default from the pre 2.5 era. It was about time to change to 48 kHz, which is a more widespread standard nowadays, especially in video. It is the recommended sampling rate of the Audio Engineering Society.

- rename WITH_EXTERNAL_AUDASPACE to WITH_SYSTEM_AUDASPACE.
- rename C/PYAUDASPACE to AUDASPACE_C/PY
- simplifying cmake defines and includes.
- fixing include paths and enabling WITH_SYSTEM_AUDASPACE for windows.
- fixing scons building.
- other minor build system fixes.
Holds 30 frames in memory. Could make it check memory instead but that
should suffice for now to make sure blender does not crash on me with
movie files.
Previously the system would load eveything in memory so something like
playing caminandes in player would swap after 30 seconds in local
computer.
OpenGL is detected:
Hoping to decrease the frequency of by far one of the most frequent bug
reports by windows users.
There is some reorganization of the GHOST API to allow easy addition of
further OpenGL options in the future. The change is not propagated too
deep to keep the size of the patch managable. We might reorganize things
here later.
For OpenGL we do two checks here:
One is a combination of GDI generic renderer or vendor microsoft
corporation and OpenGL version 1.1. This means the system does not
use GPU acceleration at all. We warn user to install a graphics
driver and of cases where this might happen (remote connection, using
blender through virtual machine)
The other one just checks if OpenGL version is less than 1.4 (we can
easily change that in the future of course) and warns that it is
deprecated.
Both cases will still let blender startup correctly but users should now
have a clear idea of the system being unsupported.
A user preference flag is provided to turn the warning off.
Now stop posting those bug reports without installing a driver first -
please?
Summary:
Made objects update happening from multiple threads. It is a task-based
scheduling system which uses current dependency graph for spawning new
tasks. This means threading happens on object level, but the system is
flexible enough for higher granularity.
Technical details:
- Uses task scheduler which was recently committed to trunk
(that one which Brecht ported from Cycles).
- Added two utility functions to dependency graph:
* DAG_threaded_update_begin, which is called to initialize threaded
objects update. It will also schedule root DAG node to the queue,
hence starting evaluation process.
Initialization will calculate how much parents are to be evaluation
before current DAG node can be scheduled. This value is used by task
threads for faster detecting which nodes might be scheduled.
* DAG_threaded_update_handle_node_updated which is called from task
thread function when node was fully handled.
This function decreases num_pending_parents of node children and
schedules children with zero valency.
As it might have become clear, task thread receives DAG nodes and
decides which callback to call for it.
Currently only BKE_object_handle_update is called for object nodes.
In the future it'll call node->callback() from Ali's new DAG.
- This required adding some workarounds to the render pipeline.
Mainly to stop using get_object_dm() from modifiers' apply callback.
Such a call was only a workaround for dependency graph glitch when
rendering scene with, say, boolean modifiers before displaying
this scene.
Such change moves workaround from one place to another, so overall
hackentropy remains the same.
- Added paradigm of EvaluaitonContext. Currently it's more like just a
more reliable replacement for G.is_rendering which fails in some
circumstances.
Future idea of this context is to also store all the local data needed
for objects evaluation such as local time, Copy-on-Write data and so.
There're two types of EvaluationContext:
* Context used for viewport updated and owned by Main. In the future
this context might be easily moved to Window or Screen to allo
per-window/per-screen local time.
* Context used by render engines to evaluate objects for render purposes.
Render engine is an owner of this context.
This context is passed to all object update routines.

Differential Revision: https://developer.blender.org/D94
- reading bmp images was failing (needed to increase the size of the header to 64 bytes)
- the dnd image was being incorrectly checked (was always returning true even when none was used).
- RGBA images (without alpha) now don't draw with alpha blending enabled
- Checkerboard backdrop for alpha images now shows on size of image
- Window always clears now, in very dark grey (so you can see black)
- On resizing window, the aspect of image is being kept, keeping the
image always visible within the window frame
- Image now centers OK.
- On pause, playback now halts (it was drawing same image all the time)

More use of bool type, necessitating adding inclusion of BLI_utildefines.h, or moving it up in the inclusion order if it was already included, in various places
- storage.c: make some variables only used in bli_builddir local to that
- storage.c: BLI_file_descriptor_size should allow 0 as a valid file descriptor
- path_util.c: make pointers to non-reentrant storage returned from folder routines const, necessitating making variables holding these returned pointers const elsewhere as well
- path_util.c: BLI_string_to_utf8 closes iconv context in case of conversion error
- blf_lang.c: fill_locales routine now has its own "languages" local variable to construct paths (was stealing internal storage belonging to BLI_get_folder before)
This makes it easier and useful to investigate alpha channels,
without this straight colors are displayed on the screen which
are completely useless in case of player.
