from Andrew Hale (trumanblending), with some edits to use these in mathutils.Vector added.
Added Functions:
- dot_vn_vn - Dot product of two arrays
- normalize_vn_vn - Normalize an array and store the result in a second array
- normalize_vn - Normalize an array inplace
Renamed Functions:
Some functions have been renamed to make them consistent with the naming conventions used by fixed length array functions.
- fill_vni to fill_vn_i
- fill_vn to fill_vn_fl
allow collection subscript to contain the library or None.
eg:
bpy.data.objects["Mesh", "/subsurf_test.blend"]
bpy.data.scenes["Scene", None]
# also works with get()
bpy.data.armatures.get(("some_armature", "//some_lib.blend"), None)
- no need to link to scenes when using a frame from the pydriver, this made linking rigs for eg, quite messy.
- advantage that we get subframe values (where scenes from was fixed to a whole number).
this works by tagging functions, eg:
def my_func(scene):
pass
bpy.app.handlers.permanent_tag(my_func, True) # <-- important bit
bpy.app.handlers.frame_change_pre.append(my_func)
* Adds two new python handlers: scene_update_pre() and scene_update_post()
These run before and after Blender does a scene update on making modifications
to the scene.
* Datablocks now have an is_updated property. This will be set to true in the
above callbacks if the datablock was tagged to be updated. This works for the
most common datablocks used for rendering: object, material, world, lamsp,
texture, mesh, curve.
* Datablock collections also have an is_updated property. If this is set, it
means one datablock of this type was added, removed or modified. It's also
useful as a quick check to avoid looping over all datablocks.
* RenderEngine.view_update() can also check these properties, for interactive
viewport rendering.

* Some cleanup, removed references to already deleted *_header.c files.
* Marked SpaceScript as deprecated and removed header. Will keep space for now though, as some script operators are there and Campbell might want to re-use the space later.
* removed struct for SpaceType and all usages
* SPACE_IMASEL in enum nees to be kept to identify it in old files
* it is replaces with SPACE_EMPTY on load, which is overridden by SPACE_INFO which has same struct members
* also removed theme settings
