* Automatically do us++ and us-- reference counting in ID pointer
set functions.
* Added an enum property callback to dynamically vary the list of
available items.
* Added some functions to do removes on pointers and collections
runtime defined for RNA and using ID properties.
* Constraints now have owner/target space wrapped, and most
pointers made editable. They can be ported to use python layouts.
* Also other pointers made editable that I think are see now with
the automatic reference counting.
* Added Constraints template and Add Constraint operator.
* Added toggle=True/False parameter to uiItemR, to get a
toggle button (actual button) rather than an "option"
button (checkbox)
* Added OPTION/OPTIONN button type, to distinguish with
TOG/TOGN.
RNA:
* Make all modifier pointers editable, including correct updates.
* Added notifiers and updates to constraints.
* Fix a stack corruption, pointed out by Andrea, and potentially
causing crashes.
Added subdivide operator and button for multires.
Since this seems to be the only modifier with an operator defined, I'm not sure if I put it in a good place or not, someone can check on this?
* template_modifier creates the modifier box, and returns a layout
to put the buttons in.
* Only the armature modifier is now done with python code, all other
modifiers use C code. To convert a modifier to python, remove the
corresponding C code and create a function in DATA_PT_modifiers.
* Some modifiers still require some RNA work to get it working well,
especially to make pointers editable. Mostly that is a matter of
defining an own _set callback and put some of the modifier C code
into it.
* Still various buttons that don't work, like for hooks or mesh
deform binding.
* Fix for crashing decimate modifier (still disabled).
* Removed UI_BUT_NO_HILITE, HMENU.
* Make uiLayoutBox work with align.
* Made separator item work horizontal & vertical.
* Add colon (:) automatic for int/float/enum/string.
* Added space variables to uiStyle and use them in the
layout engine.
* Added initial World buttons by Thomas Dinges, thanks!
* Added some code for modifiers in the Object Data context.
This will become a template though.
* Use a common poll() callback in the scripts to reduce code.
* Allow pointers to be editable, did SpaceTextEditor.text as a test.
* Changed PROP_NOT_EDITABLE to PROP_EDITABLE, and added
RNA_def_property_clear_flag.
* Removed rna_dependency.c test code.
* Removed RNA for old multires in Mesh, the old mesh->mr struct should never be used (except for loading old files)
* Dealt with sculpt + render (just needed to force multires update)
* sculpt memory leaks fixed
* Entering editmode now always exits paint modes (previously, only happened if editmode was called from the header button)
* RNA_blender.h is now generated along with the other files. It is not
used anywhere yet, and still located quite hidden next to the other
rna_*_gen.c files. Read only access for now.
* Inherited properties are not copied from the base anymore but
iterated over. Patch by Vekoon, thanks!
* Array get/set callbacks now do the whole array instead of getting an
index. This is needed for some layers for example so python can set
the array as a whole, otherwise the check that one layer has to be
enabled at all times gets in the way. Also nicer for the C API.
* Also some changes to returning pointers to make the API cleaner, got
rid of the type() callback and instead let get() return PointerRNA
with the type included.
The C API looks like this currently:
http://users.pandora.be/blendix/RNA_blender.h
* Finished DNA_lamp_types.h, DNA_world_types.h and DNA_sound_types.h.
* Renamed "parent" struct property to "nested", and also remaining "from"
usage to "base".
* Added a NEVER_NULL subtype for pointers and use it for all properties
that apply.
* Make sure all structs have a description, and fix any other DOC_BROKEN
descriptions, also many other naming consistency improvements.
* DNA_cloth_types.h, patch by Roelf de Kock. The gravity[3] member
is not being parsed correct by makesdna.c and will give issues
even when trying to fix it. Worked around it for now in RNA by
wrapping it manually, but this should really be fixed in the DNA
genetics code, added a comment about it in DNA_cloth_types.h.
* Handle vertex groups and uv layers more consistent now. They are
all exposed as strings now. Reason is that indices don't really
say much, and a direct pointer is not always possible because for
example a uv layer in a material can be used for multiple objects
and so there is no single pointer. In python it is not too hard
to use either since the strings works as a key for lookups.
For the user interface we can later think of some method to
generate popup menus in a way that works for vertex groups,
uv layers, bones etc.
* This also fixes the XXX's in rna_modifier.c, I think that can be
marked done.
Had a couple problems with this one; the uv layer and the projectors. The projectors in particular is confusing; I figured this would be one of the cases handled by RNA automagically, but maybe I need to define custom functions for it? Anyway, marked the code with XXX.
Note: I didn't set up the property for uvlayer_tmp (used when the wave is modulated using UV texture coordinates.) Wasn't sure how to do this properly.
* Object has some more properties wrapped, mostly game related.
* Scene frame changes now send a notifier.
* Added functions to create/free operator properties for calling
operators. This also simplifies some duplicated code that did
this. Ideally though this kind of thing should use the properties
pointer provided by buttons and keymap items. Example code:
PointerRNA ptr;
WM_operator_properties_create(&ptr, "SOME_OT_name");
RNA_int_set(&ptr, "value", 42);
WM_operator_name_call(C, "SOME_OT_name", WM_OP_EXEC_DEFAULT, &ptr);
WM_operator_properties_free(&ptr);
* Added support for sending notifiers and updates when setting
RNA properties. Per property, there is a notifier NC_/ND_ flag,
and a function that is called. Currently only used for
Object.loc/rot/size.
* RNA_property_update that does this is not automatically called
in every _set function, it has do be done separate, and is being
done by buttons with RNA data.
* Perhaps for python there could be a trick to accumulate these
flags rather than update each time, though for now the python
RNA code could just do them everytime. Did not add these calls
in the python code yet because it needs context, not sure where
to get that from?
* DNA_object_fluidsim.h: done, patch by Nathaniel Garbutt, thanks!
Some changes to make it more complete and adding inheritance to
better hide irrelevant and reused properties.
* Also added all derived types for modifiers, but only fluid is
filled in currently.
* Some files converted from DOS to UNIX line endings.
* Added a function to define booleans negative, to turn negative
properties into positive ones gettin rid of the no_ prefix, and
also got rid of the use_ prefix for two booleans.
* Also made the function for enum bitflags separate, this is quite
rare so don't need to bother with this in most cases.
* Removed svn:executable flags from some files.
many small changes, but the two bigger ones are:
* Sensors and controllers now use inheritance, rather than pointing
to the data in a separate struct. Had to add some new RNA define
functionality to support this better.
* DNA_meta_types.h was marked as done but still missing many things,
now completed.
Implemented RNA wrapper for ModifierData.
Note that actual interface to access data of any specific modifier is
still missing. I also marked a couple of parts as TODO that should be
reviewed to decide whether or not to expose those specific parts
via RNA.
