The `ascii` member was only kept for historic reason as some platforms
didn't support utf8 when it was first introduced.
Remove the `ascii` struct members since many checks used this as a
fall-back for utf8_buf not being set which isn't needed.
There are a few cases where it's convenient to access the ASCII value
of an event (or nil) so a function has been added to do that.
*Details*
- WM_event_utf8_to_ascii() has been added for the few cases an events
ASCII value needs to be accessed, this just avoids having to do
multi-byte character checks in-line.
- RNA Event.ascii remains, using utf8_buf[0] for single byte characters.
- GHOST_TEventKeyData.ascii has been removed.
- To avoid regressions non-ASCII Latin1 characters from GHOST are
converted into multi-byte UTF8, when building X11 without
XInput & X_HAVE_UTF8_STRING it seems like could still occur.
No user visible changes expected.
There's plenty of duplicated code in the grid and the tree view, and I expect
this to become more. This starts the process of unifying these parts, which
should also make it easier to add new views. Complexity in the view classes is
reduced, and some type shenanigans for C compatibility and general view
management can be removed, since there is now a common base type.
For the start this ports some of the view reconstruction, where the view and
its items are compared to the version of itself in the previous redraw, so that
state (highlighted, active, renaming, collapsed, ...) can be preserved.
Notifier listening is also ported.
Removes the following macros for scene/render frame values:
- `CFRA`
- `SUBFRA`
- `SFRA`
- `EFRA`
These macros don't add much, other than saving a few characters when typing.
It's not immediately clear what they refer to, they just hide what they
actually access. Just be explicit and clear about that.
Plus these macros gave read and write access to the variables, so eyesores like
this would be done (eyesore because it looks like assigning to a constant):
```
CFRA = some_frame_nbr;
```

Part of T98560.
See https://wiki.blender.org/wiki/Source/Interface/Views
Adds all the basic functionality needed for grid views. They display
items in a grid of rows and columns, typically with a preview image and
a label underneath. Think of the main region in the Asset Browser.
Current features:
- Active item
- Notifier listening (also added this to the tree view)
- Performance: Skip adding buttons that are not scrolled into view
(solves performance problems for big asset libraries, for example).
- Custom item size
- Preview items (items that draw a preview with a label underneath)
- Margins between items scale so the entire region width is filled with
column, rather than leaving a big empty block at the right if there's
not enough space for another column (like the File and current Asset
Browser does it).
- "Data-View Item" theme colors. Not shown in the UI yet.
No user visible changes expected since the grid views aren't used for
anything yet.
This was developed as part of a rewrite of the Asset Browser UI
(`asset-browser-grid-view` branch), see T95653. There's no reason to
keep this part in a branch, continuing development in master makes
things easier.
Grid and tree views have a lot of very similar code, so I'm planning to
unify them to a degree. I kept things separate for the start to first
find out how much and what exactly makes sense to override.
When launching Blender with a script creating a screenshot, the Outliner
tree wasn't initialized and built properly. That is because at this
stage, all visible regions were only tagged for a non-rebuild redraw,
not a full redraw. So ensure all regions are tagged for a full redraw
immediately after file reading. Usually the full redraw would be caused
by a file-read notifier, but the Python expression/script is executed
before notifiers are handled.
Note that even before this was crashing, the Outliner would be empty in
the created screenshot.
Additionally adds an assert to the Outliner to note assumptions
explicitly, rather than crashing later.

The evaluated mesh is a result of evaluated modifiers, and referencing
other evaluated IDs such as materials.
It can not be stored in the EditMesh structure which is intended to be
re-used by many areas. Such sharing was causing ownership errors causing
bugs like
T93855: Cycles crash with edit mode and simultaneous viewport and final render
The proposed solution is to store the evaluated edit mesh and its cage in
the object's runtime field. The motivation goes as following:
- It allows to avoid ownership problems like the ones in the linked report.
- Object level is chosen over mesh level is because the evaluated mesh
is affected by modifiers, which are on the object level.
This patch allows to have modifier stack of an object which shares mesh with
an object which is in edit mode to be properly taken into account (before
the change the modifier stack from the active object will be used for all
objects which share the mesh).
There is a change in the way how copy-on-write is handled in the edit mode to
allow proper state update when changing active scene (or having two windows
with different scenes). Previously, the copt-on-write would have been ignored
by skipping tagging CoW component. Now it is ignored from within the CoW
operation callback. This allows to update edit pointers for objects which are
not from the current depsgraph and where the edit_mesh was never assigned in
the case when the depsgraph was evaluated prior the active depsgraph.
There is no user level changes changes expected with the CoW handling changes:
should not affect on neither performance, nor memory consumption.
Tested scenarios:
- Various modifiers configurations of objects sharing mesh and be part of the
same scene.
- Steps from the reports: T93855, T82952, T77359
This also fixes T76609, T72733 and perhaps other reports.

As described in T91186, this commit moves mesh vertex normals into a
contiguous array of float vectors in a custom data layer, how face
normals are currently stored.
The main interface is documented in `BKE_mesh.h`. Vertex and face
normals are now calculated on-demand and cached, retrieved with an
"ensure" function. Since the logical state of a mesh is now "has
normals when necessary", they can be retrieved from a `const` mesh.
The goal is to use on-demand calculation for all derived data, but
leave room for eager calculation for performance purposes (modifier
evaluation is threaded, but viewport data generation is not).
**Benefits**
This moves us closer to a SoA approach rather than the current AoS
paradigm. Accessing a contiguous `float3` is much more efficient than
retrieving data from a larger struct. The memory requirements for
accessing only normals or vertex locations are smaller, and at the
cost of more memory usage for just normals, they now don't have to
be converted between float and short, which also simplifies code
In the future, the remaining items can be removed from `MVert`,
leaving only `float3`, which has similar benefits (see T93602).
Removing the combination of derived and original data makes it
conceptually simpler to only calculate normals when necessary.
This is especially important now that we have more opportunities
for temporary meshes in geometry nodes.
**Performance**
In addition to the theoretical future performance improvements by
making `MVert == float3`, I've done some basic performance testing
on this patch directly. The data is fairly rough, but it gives an idea
about where things stand generally.
- Mesh line primitive 4m Verts: 1.16x faster (36 -> 31 ms),
showing that accessing just `MVert` is now more efficient.
- Spring Splash Screen: 1.03-1.06 -> 1.06-1.11 FPS, a very slight
change that at least shows there is no regression.
- Sprite Fright Snail Smoosh: 3.30-3.40 -> 3.42-3.50 FPS, a small
but observable speedup.
- Set Position Node with Scaled Normal: 1.36x faster (53 -> 39 ms),
shows that using normals in geometry nodes is faster.
- Normal Calculation 1.6m Vert Cube: 1.19x faster (25 -> 21 ms),
shows that calculating normals is slightly faster now.
- File Size of 1.6m Vert Cube: 1.03x smaller (214.7 -> 208.4 MB),
Normals are not saved in files, which can help with large meshes.
As for memory usage, it may be slightly more in some cases, but
I didn't observe any difference in the production files I tested.
**Tests**
Some modifiers and cycles test results need to be updated with this
commit, for two reasons:
- The subdivision surface modifier is not responsible for calculating
normals anymore. In master, the modifier creates different normals
than the result of the `Mesh` normal calculation, so this is a bug
fix.
- There are small differences in the results of some modifiers that
use normals because they are not converted to and from `short`
anymore.
**Future improvements**
- Remove `ModifierTypeInfo::dependsOnNormals`. Code in each modifier
already retrieves normals if they are needed anyway.
- Copy normals as part of a better CoW system for attributes.
- Make more areas use lazy instead of eager normal calculation.
- Remove `BKE_mesh_normals_tag_dirty` in more places since that is
now the default state of a new mesh.
- Possibly apply a similar change to derived face corner normals.

This patch implements the vector types (i.e:`float2`) by making heavy
usage of templating. All vector functions are now outside of the vector
classes (inside the `blender::math` namespace) and are not vector size
dependent for the most part.
In the ongoing effort to make shaders less GL centric, we are aiming
to share more code between GLSL and C++ to avoid code duplication.
####Motivations:
- We are aiming to share UBO and SSBO structures between GLSL and C++.
This means we will use many of the existing vector types and others
we currently don't have (uintX, intX). All these variations were
asking for many more code duplication.
- Deduplicate existing code which is duplicated for each vector size.
- We also want to share small functions. Which means that vector
functions should be static and not in the class namespace.
- Reduce friction to use these types in new projects due to their
incompleteness.
- The current state of the `BLI_(float|double|mpq)(2|3|4).hh` is a
bit of a let down. Most clases are incomplete, out of sync with each
others with different codestyles, and some functions that should be
static are not (i.e: `float3::reflect()`).
####Upsides:
- Still support `.x, .y, .z, .w` for readability.
- Compact, readable and easilly extendable.
- All of the vector functions are available for all the vectors types
and can be restricted to certain types. Also template specialization
let us define exception for special class (like mpq).
- With optimization ON, the compiler unroll the loops and performance
is the same.
####Downsides:
- Might impact debugability. Though I would arge that the bugs are
rarelly caused by the vector class itself (since the operations are
quite trivial) but by the type conversions.
- Might impact compile time. I did not saw a significant impact since
the usage is not really widespread.
- Functions needs to be rewritten to support arbitrary vector length.
For instance, one can't call `len_squared_v3v3` in
`math::length_squared()` and call it a day.
- Type cast does not work with the template version of the `math::`
vector functions. Meaning you need to manually cast `float *` and
`(float *)[3]` to `float3` for the function calls.
i.e: `math::distance_squared(float3(nearest.co), positions[i]);`
- Some parts might loose in readability:
`float3::dot(v1.normalized(), v2.normalized())`
becoming
`math::dot(math::normalize(v1), math::normalize(v2))`
But I propose, when appropriate, to use
`using namespace blender::math;` on function local or file scope to
increase readability.
`dot(normalize(v1), normalize(v2))`
####Consideration:
- Include back `.length()` method. It is quite handy and is more C++
oriented.
- I considered the GLM library as a candidate for replacement. It felt
like too much for what we need and would be difficult to extend / modify
to our needs.
- I used Macros to reduce code in operators declaration and potential
copy paste bugs. This could reduce debugability and could be reverted.
- This touches `delaunay_2d.cc` and the intersection code. I would like
to know @howardt opinion on the matter.
- The `noexcept` on the copy constructor of `mpq(2|3)` is being removed.
But according to @JacquesLucke it is not a real problem for now.
I would like to give a huge thanks to @JacquesLucke who helped during this
and pushed me to reduce the duplication further.
