- 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
applied to python api and exotic.c, removed some args being passed down which were not needed.
keyword args for new mathutils types were being ignored when they should raise an error.
First commit to make some structure in doc/ directory.
- moved source/blender/python/doc -> doc/python_api
- moved source/gameengine/PyDoc/*.rst -> doc/python_api/rst
- modified accordingly sphinx_doc_gen.py and sphinx_doc_gen.sh
(later on I'll try alternative/ scripts by neXyon as promised :)
- source/gameengine/PyDoc/ is still there because contains epydoc stuff for the bge, will ask more and look into it later
- bpy.app.debug can now be set, removed bpy.data.debug (since this is not blendfile data)
- added bpy.app.tempdir, this is needed because the userpref temp dir isn't always set, $TEMP may be used instead and scripts need temp dir access.
now addon path is created using the same path functions and selecting where to save the startup.blend
also made some minor changes to path handling funcs.
- fixed WM_OT_context_cycle_int was causing problems with int overflow, now it cycles properly.
- rename QUOTE macro to STRINGIFY_ARG, and added STRINGIFY, which is used more often since it gives the value as a string.
When there are 2+ consecutive deform modifiers, the second modifier was getting incorrect normals, this only showed up for the displace modifier since its the only deform modifier that uses vertex normals.
It would have been easy to fix this by always calculating normals on deform modifiers, but slow.
To fix this I added a function to check if a deform modifier needs normals, so the normal calculation function only runs if there are 2 modifiers in a row and the second uses normals.
This means we can do operator drawing without passing self.properties as an argument.
while this check if quite specific, if this gives problems later on we should probably change operators not to try to mix an operator and its properties, it looks nice to a scripter but internally is not easy to manage.
* Fix var declaration in bpy_interface.c
* Remove forward declarations from py_capi_utils.h: they are unnecessary and break compiles (there were probably many warnings about this during compile with GCC).
- BKE_add_image_extension now sets the extension rather then appending. (no more image.jpg.tga)
- py/rna functions which have no return value now raise an error if a non-None value is returned.
- added back the red-alert flag so buttons can have a red highlight if somethings wrong.
The reason this didnt work is all sibclasses of pythons type() or PyType_Type in C, have to have their size set to sizeof(PyHeapTypeObject) rather then sizeof(PyTypeObject) as you might expect.
This is strange since its not a heap-class (defined in pythons runtime), but a static C type, so Im not sure about this, and cant find any documentation but it seems to work ok.
- operator properties are now converted into python property() class members which bypass the operator 'properties' member.
self.properties.mysetting
... can now be written as ...
self.mysetting
- fix for error reloading rigify
eg:
bpy.types.Scene.myprop = BoolProperty()
note, this uses an ugly python metaclass, this should be replaced with a C implimentation which is included but commented out, causing crashes in pythons GC which gives no hint as to where the bug comes from.
- rna internal deferred properties now store the functions as PyObjects rather then C function pointers
- Property functions now allow the first non keyword argument to be a class.
Setting the classes __dict__ member directly didnt update the types slots (python internal type stuff used with subclassing), so class.bl_rna was returning an incorrect value.
Set the value using typical python setattr command.
cant test if this fix solves the problem matt is having but it at least fixes an error caused by classes created in exec(),
when the properties pointers were copied the hash key still referred to the python object which could be freed. in most cases this wouldnt happen (would be kept in bytecode) but with exec() the property string is freed immediately.
- move: material.add_texture(tex, coords, mapto) --> material.texture_slots.add()
- added material.texture_slots.create(index), material.texture_slots.clear(index)
- texture slot functions also work for lamp and world now.
Other minor changes
- allow rna functions to set FUNC_NO_SELF and FUNC_USE_SELF_ID at once.
- [#23317] Changed some operators' RNA to accept lengths, a modification I made to this patch made it not work as intended, removed this edit so unit buttons appier in the UI for certain operators.
- Sphinx doc gen, 2 columns rather then 3, didnt quite fit in some cases.
- use 3 column lists for inherited props, funcs and for references to save on vertical space.
- use the blender version string for the upload path and PDF name.
