- rename 'name', 'dir' --> 'filepath' where these actually represent a file path to avoid confusion.
- bugfix for possible (but unlikely) uninitialized string.
- remove commented script append function, now we have a python api for this.
Also use const char in many other parts of blenders code.
Currently this gives warnings for setting operator id, label and description since these are an exception and allocated beforehand.
- made interface, windowmanager, readfile build without unused warnings.
- re-arranged CMake's source/blender build order so less changed libs are build later, eg: IK, avi
This patch allows a user to pass binary data to LibLoad() to load a blend file from memory instead of a file path. I don't know how useful this will be for others, but I've used it so far for:
* Decrypting .blend files and loading them without having to store the .blend on the hard drive
* Pulling .blend data out of an archive and loading it (again skipping the hard drive)
So, it seems the biggest use for this is skipping a bit of file IO (and possibly some security problems).
Example usage:
import bge
with f as open('myfile.blend', 'rb'):
data = f.read()
bge.logic.LibLoad('Name', 'Scene', data)
* sound file path was not displayed in sequencer panel.
* sound strip with relative paths would stop working after undo.
(commit 27575 by Brecht from render25 branch)
that completely:
* quit.blend is saved from the undo file, which did not save out library
ID_LI and ID_ID blocks, for quick undo keeping the library datablocks.
However this means library links are lost on reading the quit.blend, so
now instead of not writing them, they are not read on undo.
* Libraries were not not using the right path yet always.
Note the screen setup is still not recovered from the quit.blend if no
auto save happened yet, but that is not important enough to spend time on
now.
- 'center', while Ctrl is held select objects from their center location
- 'enumerate', while Alt is held, give a list of objects under the mouse
- Object selection menu now uses icons with names
- operator object.select_name(name, extend=False)
- keybindings so combinations of Ctrl/Alt/Shift can be used (like in 2.4x)
- logic text input field was using deprecated ID_SCRIPT rather then ID_TXT
details
- added comments to DNA_ID.h ID types
- removed unused ID types Sector and Life
- added uiIconFromID() to get an icon from the object.
- using name for selection is weak but currently there isnt a really good way to do this.
Multidim. arrays can now be modified at any level, for example:
struc.arrayprop = x
struc.arrayprop[i] = x
struc.arrayprop[i][j] = x
struc.arrayprop[i][j][k] = x
etc...
Approriate rvalue type/length checking is done.
To ensure all works correctly, I wrote automated tests in release/test/rna_array.py.
These tests cover: array/item access, assignment on different levels, tests that proper exceptions are thrown on invalid item access/assignment.
The tests use properties of the RNA Test struct defined in rna_test.c. This struct is only compiled when building with BF_UNIT_TEST=1 scons arg.
Currently unit tests are run manually by loading the script in the Text Editor.
Here's the output I have: http://www.pasteall.org/7644
Things to improve here:
- better exception messages when multidim. array assignment fails. Those we have currently are not very useful for multidim.
- add tests for slice assignment
Mostly harmless ones, except for one about "gzopen64" being
undeclared. This needs some defines in BLI_storage.h to be set
before <unistd.h> is included. Might fix a crash in compressed
file reading, though I'm not sure since it's hard to repeat
the crash consistently.
Patch from Joshua, converting Grease Pencil to 2.5.
All GP data now is an ID block, allowing re-use, link and append.
For better contextual control within 2.5, these GP ID's will get
linked to actual data, like NodeTrees, Scenes, Images or Objects.
That will ensure Undo works, and opens up exciting new use cases
as well. :)
Patch note: on reading files, GPencils linked from editors will
get moved to the main library, using standard naming (indicating
where it was used), and with "Fake User" set. That way the user
can manually relink the pencils where appropriate.
We can check on just linking GP to some default, like 3d window
pencils to Scene? Nice to experiment with.
Notes for Joshua:
- for reading old GPencil, it has to use old code as well, meaning
to tread data as "indirect data, within another ID".
- Saving ID data means the chunk in file BHead needs the ID_GD code,
and not "DATA", which indicates 'indirect data'. That's the file
format spec.
- I've added do_versions_gpencil_2_50(), feel free to further tweak
things here, like linking things to scene or so.
- Formerly GPencil saved 2.50 files won't convert gpencil
* Added a report list to operator, to which they can report errors and
warnings. When the operator ends, it will display them with a popup. For
python these should become exceptions when calling operators.
* Added a function to make a popup menu from a report list.
* Also added a utility function to prepend a string before the reports to
indicate what they relates to. Also made the report functions used
BLI_dynstr to simplify the code.
* Made file reading and writing report errors to the user again using this
system, also replacing the left over uncommented bad level error() calls.
- removed context usage, should not be in this module
- remove G.main usage, now is passed along
- still some globals in use here, goal is to get rid of those too,
so that it's possible to load/save blendfiles without having to
think about some global state.
svn merge https://svn.blender.org/svnroot/bf-blender/trunk/blender -r12987:17416
Issues:
* GHOST/X11 had conflicting changes. Some code was added in 2.5, which was
later added in trunk also, but reverted partially, specifically revision
16683. I have left out this reversion in the 2.5 branch since I think it is
needed there.
http://projects.blender.org/plugins/scmsvn/viewcvs.php?view=rev&root=bf-blender&revision=16683
* Scons had various conflicting changes, I decided to go with trunk version
for everything except priorities and some library renaming.
* In creator.c, there were various fixes and fixes for fixes related to the -w
-W and -p options. In 2.5 -w and -W is not coded yet, and -p is done
differently. Since this is changed so much, and I don't think those fixes
would be needed in 2.5, I've left them out.
* Also in creator.c: there was code for a python bugfix where the screen was not
initialized when running with -P. The code that initializes the screen there
I had to disable, that can't work in 2.5 anymore but left it commented as a
reminder.
Further I had to disable some new function calls. using src/ and python/, as
was done already in this branch, disabled function calls:
* bpath.c: error reporting
* BME_conversions.c: editmesh conversion functions.
* SHD_dynamic: disabled almost completely, there is no python/.
* KX_PythonInit.cpp and Ketsji/ build files: Mathutils is not there, disabled.
* text.c: clipboard copy call.
* object.c: OB_SUPPORT_MATERIAL.
* DerivedMesh.c and subsurf_ccg, stipple_quarttone.
Still to be done:
* Go over files and functions that were moved to a different location but could
still use changes that were done in trunk.
* When making a proxy, the lib linked IPO driver was also changed to
point to the proxy object, and after undo this local proxy object
was replaced so the pointer became invalid. In fact it is not needed
at all to change this because the IPO code maps the pointer to the
local proxy object already.
* Undoing the make proxy operation would crash because the proxy_from
pointer in the library linked object would still point to the removed
object. Now it clears all these pointers before undo, because on each
undo memory file read they will be set again anyway.
This is the first code for the Data API, also known as RNA system in the
2.5 Branch. It does not include a user interface, and only wraps some
Scene properties for testing. It is integrated with Scons and Makefiles,
and compiles a 'makesrna' program that generates an RNA.c file.
http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/BlenderDev/Blender2.5/DataAPIhttp://wiki.blender.org/index.php/BlenderDev/Blender2.5/RNA
The changes are quite local, basically adding a makesrna module which
works similar to the makesdna module. The one external change is in
moving genfile.c from blenloader to the makesdna module, so that it can
be reused by the RNA code. This also meant changing the DNA makefiles.
It seems to be doing dependencies correct still in my tests, but if
there is an issue with the DNA not being rebuilt this commit might be
the one causing it. Also it seems for scons the makesdna and makesrna
modules are compiling without warnings. Not a new issue but this should
be fixed.
The RNA code supports all types as defined in the Data API design, so
in that sense it is fairly complete and I hope that aspect will not
have to change much. Some obviously missing parts are context related
code, notify() functions for updates and user defined / ID properties.
- activated image browser for texture databrowse (texture buttons)
- activated image browser for brush texture databrowse (+small fix of callback function)
- activated image browser for image databrowse in UV/image editor
- fixed: filter didn't work with databrowse and append/link.
- filter buttons in header now don't appear when doing databrowse or append/link
- loading previews for textures added when linking/appending.
Initial commit of imagebrowser in trunk.
BIG COMMIT!
Main changes:
* completely reworked imasel space
* creation and storage of the preview images for materials, textures, world and lamp
* thumbnails of images and movie files when browsing in the file system
* loading previews from external .blend when linking or appending
* thumbnail caching according to the Thumbnail Managing Standard: http://jens.triq.net/thumbnail-spec/
* for now just kept imasel access mostly as old imgbrowser (CTRL+F4, CTRL+F1) a bit hidden still.
* filtering of file types (images, movies, .blend, py,...)
* preliminary managing of bookmarks ('B' button to add, XKEY while bookmark active to delete)
More detailed info which will be updated here: http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/User:Elubie/PreviewImageBrowser
Places that need special review (and probably fixes):
* BLO_blendhandle_get_previews in readblenentry
* readfile.c: do_version and refactorings of do_library_append
* UI integration
TODO and known issues still:
* Accented characters do not display correctly with international fonts
* Crash was reported when browsing in directory with movie files
* Bookmark management still needs some UI work (second scrollbar?), feedback here is welcome!

The good news; previously written 64 bits are still valid! All fixes
appeared to be possible in code, no versioning patches needed. :)
That also removes the I AM STUPID 64 bits ban from the code.
The bad news:
I couldn't get a 64 bits Blender running here (ghost-mac issues... it
has to be recoded using Quartz to be able to run 64 bits). So what I
have tested was:
32 bits binary:
- Appending/linking data from 64 bits file.
- Reading 64 bits chained library-linked files (file -> file -> etc)
- Linking 32 bits files with 64 bits files
This has to be tested for 64 bits too. Will drop in IRC now to help.
Note: part 3 is fixing memory issues for addressing > 4 GB data. A first
start has been made for a blenlib API function.
library .blend files anymore, making it a load faster to use.
- Fixed ancient annoyance; samples were not properly freed, giving a lot
"Error Totblock" when using sound.
This fix also involves removing an ancient NaN hack, which treated the
samples as fake Library data in the Main database.
But still, the Blender Sound and Sample code is horrible... :/
Was surprisingly easy to add, compiant with file reading and undo code.
Currently only the Image->ibuf gets restored, and its opengl binding, so
for realtime texture it works nicely. Also texture images are not freed
inbetween undo steps
Notes:
- Painting textures will just keep the painted image, there's no undo
yet for that
- If this works satisfying, I'll extend it to compositing previews
TEST IT WELL PLEASE! :)
- buffer overflow was possible with providing a file path argument longer
than 256 characters.
- buttons "VCol Light" and "VCol Paint" were not mutual exclusive
- quicktime error menu (unable to create) had a enter in end
- deleting points in CurveMapping button (like Curves node in compositor)
did not give proper recalc event
- edges render menu had a tooltip still mentioning the unified render
