Search for all potential library names in each directory, otherwise e.g.
libImath-2_2.a from a system directory will be preferred over libImath.a even
if we specified a directory.
It was disabled in D7520 to keep the pdb's from growing out
of control however the increased link time is just not worth
it.
I'll keep an eye on the dailies and see if we have to come up
with a different solution.
Ever since debug symbols were added for release builds the linker
has been on the chatty side about symbols being missing for our
binary libs.
There's currently no plans to supply those, so best for the linker
not to warn us about them.
Static tbb has always been frowned upon [1] sofar it has worked for us but
given our reliance on tbb is about to increase (D7475), I'd like to move the library
to more supported configuration. Which means moving it to be a dynamic library
The libs part of this change is in rBL62416

This diff add supports for crash logs on windows for
release builds. This can be toggled on/off with the
`WITH_WINDOWS_PDB` cmake option. by default it is on.
Things to take into consideration:
Release builds are hightly optimized and the resulting
backtraces can be wrong/misleading, take the backtrace
as a general area where the problem resides rather than
an exact location.
By default we ship a minimized symbol file that can only
resolve the function names. This was chosen to strike
a balance between growth in size of the download vs
functionality gained. If more detailed information is
required such as source file + line number information
a full pdb can be shipped by setting `WITH_WINDOWS_STRIPPED_PDB`
to off.

This patch enables TBB as the default task scheduler. TBB stands for Threading Building Blocks and is developed by Intel. The library contains several threading patters. This patch maps blenders BLI_task_* function to their counterpart. After this patch we can add more patterns. A promising one is TBB:graph that can be used for depsgraph, draw manager and compositor.
Performance changes depends on the actual hardware. It was tested on different hardwares from laptops to workstations and we didn't detected any downgrade of the performance.

Otherwise file browsers do not recognize the Blender executable. This is

We leave it off for non-portable builds, since that's how Linux distribution

default there. Using a file browser to launch executables from e.g. /usr/bin

Following up to b555b8d.
Building Blender with hidden symbols but using libraries with visible symbols
was giving linker warnings, specifically for USD. So revert that for now, as
it was not needed for the bugfix.
Hide USD symbols (some of which are not in the USD namespace) to avoid potential
conflicts. May potentially help with AMD OpenCL issues in T74262.
This means symbols from Blender itself and most external libraries. We can't
just hide all because that breaks some libraries. The better solution would
be to rebuild all library dependencies with hidden visibility.
Fixes T75223: Luxrender add-on failing to load on macOS
Happens on macOS 10.15.4 and Xcode 11.4.
The reason of failure is caused by following factors:
- xcodebuild reports full semantic macOS SDK version 10.15.4
- The actual SDK file path will only include major and minor part
of the version (10.15, MacOSX10.15.sdk)
- Previous CMake code of ours expected direct match between SDK
version and file path.
The solution is to make our detection code a bit more flexible and
additionally check for major.minor macOS SDK version in the path.
The specific goal of this change is to get rid of separate code paths
for older and newer Xcode versions.
The version 8.2 is picked since it's the latest version which runs on
macOS 10.11 (which is our current deployment target). If that turns
out too new for some reason the alternative would be to require Xcode
version 5.
The main CMakeLists already requires CMake 3.5, so there is no point of
requiring "newer" CMake on macOS.
This was a code from a while back where CMake 3 was not required on all
platforms.
The OpenXR-SDK contains utilities for using the OpenXR standard
(https://www.khronos.org/openxr/). Namely C-headers and a so called
"loader" to manage runtime linking to OpenXR platforms ("runtimes")
installed on the user's system.
The WITH_XR_OPENXR build option is disabled by default for now, as there
is no code using it yet. On macOS it will remain disabled for now, it's
untested and there's no OpenXR runtime in sight for it.
Some points on the OpenXR-SDK dependency:
* The repository is located at
https://github.com/KhronosGroup/OpenXR-SDK (Apache 2).
* Notes on updating the dependency:
https://wiki.blender.org/wiki/Source/OpenXR_SDK_Dependency
* It contains a bunch of generated files, for which the sources are in a
separate repository
(https://github.com/KhronosGroup/OpenXR-SDK-Source).
* We could use that other repo by default, but I'd rather go with the
simpler solution and allow people to opt in if they want advanced dev
features.
* We currently use the OpenXR loader lib from it and the headers.
* To use the injected OpenXR API-layers from the SDK (e.g. API
validation layers), the SDK needs to be compiled from this other
repository.
The extra "XR_" prefix in the build option is to avoid mix-ups of OpenXR
with OpenEXR.
Most of this comes from the 2019 GSoC project, "Core Support of Virtual
Reality Headsets through OpenXR"
(https://wiki.blender.org/wiki/User:Severin/GSoC-2019/).

System GLEW often is not new enough, which gives error on startup. The build

MSVC has a conformance mode (/permissive-) where the C++ standard is more strictly
enforced. This mode is available on MSVC 15.5+ [1]
This patch enables this mode on compilers that support it and cleans up the few violations it threw up in the process.
- Mantaflow was using M_PI without requesting them using the _USE_MATH_DEFINES define to opt in to non default behaviour.
- Collada did not include the right header for std::cerr, this seemingly was fixed for other platforms already but put inside a platform guard.
- Ghost had some scoping issues regarding uninitialized variables and goto behaviour
Second landing of this patch, earlier commit was reverted due to some compiler configurations having slipped though testing

- move the TBB checks to a central location rather than the individual platform files
