* support for dynamic enums to be inspected enumProp.items() from python.
* fix, enums check for a separator was flipped, meant no enums were in docs.
* dynamic enum functions now check for a NULL context and return all possible options for the "items" attribute used for docs.
* added an arg for rna arrays to free the array there looping over (needed to free dynamically allocated enum items)
* python api checks for NULL items since this can happen in some cases.
* python api, When getting an enum ID from an int in an array - If it failed it would get the first enum identifier and return that. Brecht? dont understand, making it return an empty string in these cases.
* Objects now support up to 32767 material slots. It's easy to
increase this further, but I prefer not to increase the memory
usage of mesh faces, it seems unlikely that someone would
create 32767 distinct materials?
* Forward compatibility: the only thing you can potentially lose
reading a 2.5 file in 2.4 is object linking (instead of default
data), though usually that will go fine too. Reading files with
> 32 material slots in 2.4 can start giving issues.
* The ob->colbits variable is deprecated by the array ob->matbits
but I didn't remove the ob->colbits updates in very few places
it is set.
* I hope I changed all the relevant things, various places just
hardcoded the number 16 instead of using the MAXMAT define.
* Join Objects operator back. This is using the version from the
animsys2 branch coded by Joshua, which means it now supports
joining of shape keys.
* Fix for crash reading file saved during render.
These fixes get the 'pathJumper.blend' file from our testing suite workable in 2.5 (with a few minor tweaks still needed *)
Changes required:
- Added a 'ctime' var to curve structs for storing the value that used to be obtained by specially evaluating the 'speed' curve when evaluating objects parented to the curve. This can now be animated as a 'proper' var as per normal.
- Added a special hack for detecting constraint blocks, as the old method resulted in paths for Objects instead...
(*) Issues:
- Unfortunately, the paths still don't work out of the box. For some reason, the constraint names in the paths are spelt incorrectly - "Ar" and "Br" instead of "Ap" and "Bp". I'm not sure where this problem is coming from, but changing the paths manually in the Datablocks viewer fixes this error...
- I noticed that in the buttons view, only 1st of the constraints gets shown. This seems a bit like some of the intermittent problems I've had with some arrays/lists not expanding properly in Datablocks view.
Merging changes made by Arystanbek in the soc-2009-kazanbas branch,
plus some things modified and added by me.
* The API files now all in the makesrna module, convention is to
call them e.g. rna_mesh_api.c for rna_mesh.c. Note for visual
studio build maintainers, the rna_*_api.c files are compiled as
part of "makesrna", but do not have rna_*_gen.c generated as part
of the library. SCons/cmake/make were updated.
* Added function flags FUNC_USE_CONTEXT and FUNC_USE_REPORTS, to
allow RNA functions to get context and error reporting parameters
optionally. Renamed FUNC_TYPESTATIC to FUNC_NO_SELF.
* RNA collections now have a pointer to add/remove FunctionRNA's, this
isn't actually used anywhere yet, purpose is to make an alias
main.meshes.add() for main.add_mesh() in python.
* Fixes to make autogenerating property set/get for multidimensional
arrays work, though a 4x4 matrix will be exposed as a length 16
one dimensional RNA array.
* Functions and properties added:
* Main.add_mesh()
* Main.remove_mesh()
* Object.matrix
* Object.create_render_mesh()
* WindowManager.add_fileselect()
* Added icon to property and enum property items. The latter is
responsible for the large number of files changed.
* For RNA functions, added PROP_RNAPTR flag to ask for a PointerRNA
as argument instead of a C pointer, instead of doing it implicitly
with the AnyType type.
* Material: properly wrap diffuse/specular param variables, and
rename some things for consistency.
* MaterialTextureSlot: added "enabled" property (ma->septex).
* Image: make animated property editable.
* Image Editor: make some things editable, notifiers, respect state.
* Context: fix issue with screen not being set as ID.
* Accept None as NULL pointers through python function calls.
* Added type callback for pointers back, it's useful still in
some cases. Made Object.data editable using this, the pointer
type varying based on object type.
* Wrap pin ID pointer in buttons space.
* Added subclasses for text and surface curve ID blocks, to
organize data better and get proper icons.
* Added RNA_type_to_ID_code and ID_code_to_RNA_type functions.
* Update RNA_access.h with new RNA types.
* Automatically do us++ and us-- reference counting in ID pointer
set functions.
* Added an enum property callback to dynamically vary the list of
available items.
* Added some functions to do removes on pointers and collections
runtime defined for RNA and using ID properties.
* Constraints now have owner/target space wrapped, and most
pointers made editable. They can be ported to use python layouts.
* Also other pointers made editable that I think are see now with
the automatic reference counting.
* turned some slider UI controls back into number fields
Note: Sliders should only be used when representing a property that's
conceptually a percentage or ratio. For arbitrary numbers, use a number field.
For example, a lamp's energy can theoretically be anything - 0.1, 3.5, 125.0, it
doesn't matter - it's just a number, not a percentage. So this should be a
number field.
* Added new modifier tab.
* Fixed problems when no object was selected after delete.
* Added initial Armature, Bone, Curve and Font panels, by William Reynish (Billrey). Thanks!
* Small RNA changes
* Commit revision 20240 and 20268 from trunk. ("Mouse wheel zoom lost after rendering.")
* Replaced a few duplicated enums that were also defined for some RNA properties already with the RNA ones.
* Start of cleanup of markers code in preparation for getting the rest of the editing code involving markers working again
* Allow pointers to be editable, did SpaceTextEditor.text as a test.
* Changed PROP_NOT_EDITABLE to PROP_EDITABLE, and added
RNA_def_property_clear_flag.
* Removed rna_dependency.c test code.
* RNA_blender.h is now generated along with the other files. It is not
used anywhere yet, and still located quite hidden next to the other
rna_*_gen.c files. Read only access for now.
* Inherited properties are not copied from the base anymore but
iterated over. Patch by Vekoon, thanks!
* Array get/set callbacks now do the whole array instead of getting an
index. This is needed for some layers for example so python can set
the array as a whole, otherwise the check that one layer has to be
enabled at all times gets in the way. Also nicer for the C API.
* Also some changes to returning pointers to make the API cleaner, got
rid of the type() callback and instead let get() return PointerRNA
with the type included.
The C API looks like this currently:
http://users.pandora.be/blendix/RNA_blender.h
It's about time that the RNA wrapping for various parts of the animation system were cleaned up for my recent changes. I've moved some code around (and/or deleted a file or two) in the process.
* Finished DNA_lamp_types.h, DNA_world_types.h and DNA_sound_types.h.
* Renamed "parent" struct property to "nested", and also remaining "from"
usage to "base".
* Added a NEVER_NULL subtype for pointers and use it for all properties
that apply.
* Make sure all structs have a description, and fix any other DOC_BROKEN
descriptions, also many other naming consistency improvements.
* Added a function to define booleans negative, to turn negative
properties into positive ones gettin rid of the no_ prefix, and
also got rid of the use_ prefix for two booleans.
* Also made the function for enum bitflags separate, this is quite
rare so don't need to bother with this in most cases.
* Removed svn:executable flags from some files.
many small changes, but the two bigger ones are:
* Sensors and controllers now use inheritance, rather than pointing
to the data in a separate struct. Had to add some new RNA define
functionality to support this better.
* DNA_meta_types.h was marked as done but still missing many things,
now completed.
Implemented RNA wrappers for curves and VFont. Only issue I could
not yet solve is related to struct CharInfo curinfo; . This particular
line proved to be hard to wrap and I therefore marked it as a TODO
should someone want to fix this issue.
I also cleaned up makesrna.c a bit by unifying brush/meta parts
under one call just the way it is done in the case of other
wrappers.
