Now you can set/get: float, arrays (int and float) and string.
The only special function is OP_get_string, it is special
because return a pointer to the IDProperty data, so you can't
change/resize/free the string.
It's possible "fix" this with:
1) Return a "const char"
2) Return a duplicate string
All this new function are not in use yet, but i make a simple test
with the "move areas" operator (add a property of every type and then
print the result in the other size) and work fine, more test are welcome.
Other thing to check is the new OP_free_property function, because this
properties are only local to the operator, i choice free all this in the
"exit callback" of every operator (only move areas have property now),
so comment about this are welcome too :)
Also add some notes to the WM_api.h file.
This is a simple API around IDProperty to store properties
in the Operator, it is really simple and this first commit
just add support for IDP_INT data type.
Take care that this "properties" are not save yet and you get
some "Error totblock" more with this.
I add some notes to the WM_api.h file, please check this,
comment and ideas are welcome.
- on mouse-over edge, you can drag area borders around.
- note it's a handerized system now, so it updates UI while you
move mouse.
Feedback needed:
- read bottom part of the screen_edit.c file. It's the proposed
method for adding tools and handlers. I think it's close, but
might need some tweaks.
- removed editors/area and put this all in screen
- added first python calls (note, a new c file for scriptlinks)
- added view3d editor callbacks (no drawing yet)
- added files in editors/interface
(Cmake and Scons has to be fixed, help welcome!)
- now areas/headers are being converted on file read
- note: previously saved 2.50 files will crash!!! (.B.blend)
- area regions are being drawn, first handler for cursor added (on edge)
- window duplicate and scale works correct for screen subdiv
Todos for me:
- need to fix things in syntax (function names) a bit still
- more operators for screen
- define how Context will work... still unresolved when it gets set
- docs!
Reviews of code structure is welcome!
There are also more todos now for others, but it can wait a couple of days
- first work on getting area/screen handling back
- added structure for where to put stuff, is still under
review, wait a bit for docs?
Campbell is working on removing every bad level include from
sources, so we can safely rebuild the src/ directory.
