This commit extends limit of ID and objects to 64 (it means 63 meaning
characters and 1 for zero-terminator). CustomData layers names are also
extended.
Changed DNA structures and all places where length constants were hardcoded.
All names which are "generating" from ID block should be limited by MAX_ID_NAME-2,
all non-id names now has got own define called MAX_NAME which should be used all
over for non-id names to make further name migration stuff easier.
All name fields in DNA now have comment with constant which corresponds to
hardcoded numeric value which should make it easier to further update this
limits or even switch to non-hardcoded values in DNA.
Special thanks to Campbell who helped figuring out some issues and helped a lot
in finding all cases where hardcoded valued were still used in code.
Both of forwards and backwards compatibility is stored with blender versions newer
than January 5, 2011. Older versions had issue with placing null-terminator to
DNA strings on file load which will lead to some unpredictable behavior or even
crashes.
This issue it totally related on issue with changing object datablock.
For curves it used to guess object type from curve datablock based on
count of control points in V direction.
This quess fails in case when SurfCircle datablock is trying to be reused
by another surface object or as another sample empty surface databouck used
to be treated as curve.
Store type in Curve when creating new Curve datablock which is used in
this object type quessing function.
Note: Previously saved files wouldn't change behavior at all.
infact this is a feature request but we had reports about it before and its useful to have.
2 new options for OBJECT_OT_duplicates_make_real
- parent to original duplicator
- keep internal hierarchy
* 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.

Shapekey actions weren't getting copied when their owner data was.
This was due to the IMO totally convoluted way in which the duplicate
action flags have been set up:
- the function to copy animdata takes a param to specify whether
actions are copied or not, but this is never touched (i.e. this always
just gets FALSE passed in)
- instead, we jump around in hoops later figuring out whether the
userpref wants copying to occur, then fixing up the links
IIRC, part of this may be due to a desire/need to not duplicate
actions when dealing with NodeTree copies for multi-threaded
rendering, but at the expense of complicating everything else.
Speaker objects fully functional!
Minor changes:
* Fixed three memory bugs found via valgrind.
* Fixed bug with jack transport crashing after file loading.
* Sound NLA Strips now start at CFRA instead of 0.
Second part of previous commit. Now, when speaker objects are created,
they are created by default with an NLA sound strip so that it is easy
to just start immediately using this to do cool stuff (i.e. timing
when you want the sound to start).
* Minor audaspace library improvements.
* Considering location, velocity and orientation in AUD_SequencerReader and AUD_SequencerHandle.
* Bugfix: Maximum and Minimum volume weren't used before in the software device.
* Bugfix: Adding speaker objects via info space crashed.
* Listener settings now get updated in the audio system.
Using search for operators showed ambigious names like "Duplicate" or "Delete".
Default names should give at least a descriptive label. In case operators
are collected in a group name-shortening should be handled separaly.
was not recursively restoring sound strips on paste.
also found many duplicate functions were defining the transform mode as in int but getting as an enum, use enum for both now.
problem and crash
- It turns out we still need the "copyob" still, if for nothing other
than making sure that the unkeyed transforms can get restored. This
was removed originally as I thought that just reevaluating the
animation would work.
- Removed a buggy line of logic that was causing crashes when there
was no animation data. It's better to just assume that if animation
data exists, that something exists there.
- Make Duplicates Real was not clearing data such as the new animation
data or constraints.
