When the uniqueness requirement was introduced in r24478 (2.50.8) for unambiguous RNA paths for animation a do_versions check was also added, but this was incorrectly only applied to main->nodetree (i.e. node groups) and not local trees in scene, material, etc.
Issue is sharing using global random generator which is shared with
particle system which resets the seed due to some scene/option
combination. Since it may be desirable to get predictable results with
particles, made sure brushes allocate their own random number generator
on startup and use that for jittering.
When nodes are loaded from a .blend file they can potentially have undefined types. This can happen if a type has been deprecated and removed, or if node types were defined in a python script that has not been loaded correctly. Previously all such nodes would automatically be removed from a node tree, assuming that their types were deprecated and no longer in use (more commonly caused by loading new nodes in an older Blender version). Due to the possibility of dynamic registration it is no longer feasible to simply delete such nodes.
Display and handling of node trees was simply disabled before this patch, so that a node tree where any node or socket type was undefined would not be displayed at all. To give more information and avoid problems caused by necessary checks for the typeinfo pointer, there is now a 'Undefined' fallback type for trees, nodes and sockets. These types are used as placeholders in case the real type is not registered and can provide useful visual feedback on undefined nodes.
It works in a newest gcc (e.g. 4.6.3) but fails here:
i686-apple-darwin11-llvm-gcc-4.2 (GCC) 4.2.1 (Based on Apple Inc. build
5658) (LLVM build 2336.11.00)
PyNodes opens up the node system in Blender to scripters and adds a number of UI-level improvements.
=== Dynamic node type registration ===
Node types can now be added at runtime, using the RNA registration mechanism from python. This enables addons such as render engines to create a complete user interface with nodes.
Examples of how such nodes can be defined can be found in my personal wiki docs atm [1] and as a script template in release/scripts/templates_py/custom_nodes.py [2].
=== Node group improvements ===
Each node editor now has a tree history of edited node groups, which allows opening and editing nested node groups. The node editor also supports pinning now, so that different spaces can be used to edit different node groups simultaneously. For more ramblings and rationale see (really old) blog post on code.blender.org [3].
The interface of node groups has been overhauled. Sockets of a node group are no longer displayed in columns on either side, but instead special input/output nodes are used to mirror group sockets inside a node tree. This solves the problem of long node lines in groups and allows more adaptable node layout. Internal sockets can be exposed from a group by either connecting to the extension sockets in input/output nodes (shown as empty circle) or by adding sockets from the node property bar in the "Interface" panel. Further details such as the socket name can also be changed there.

Resolved conflicts:

Also updated source/blender/blenkernel/intern/linestyle.c as a follow-up of
recent changes for the use of bool.

use an alpha bit mask since it may run into portability issues with byte
order.
Automatic switching for drawing pixel buffers via glDrawPixels or using GPU textures
It works with a User Preference limit, in megapixels, to define whether to use
GPU or direct pixel drawing. Default is now initialized to 10 MP (4k buffers).
Especially for zooming out (draw smaller) texture drawing is much smaller. Also
Nvidia cards typically draw much faster with textures in general.
Added to node backdrop first now, the other editors follow in a next commit.
For coders: added new DNA function to initialize new struct variables, so you
don't have to sub-version files anymore.
DNA_struct_elem_find(fd->filesdna, "structname", "typename", "varname")
"filesdna" is the sdna description of the current file being versioned.
- without python builds without warnings.
- replace MAXFLOAT -> FLT_MAX in some areas, MAXFLOAT overflows (lager then float range).
- add cmake option WITH_GCC_MUDFLAP to enable libmudflap use.
Fixes [#34348] Collapse short edges affects masked geometry
/projects.blender.org/tracker/?func=detail&aid=34348&group_id=9&atid=498
Fixed by disallowing topology updates on edges with a vertex masked at
50% or greater. This is a necessarily arbitrary choice; can't do
halfway updates for topology like we can with displacement.
Handle sequences in a special case for dealing with
sequence sources.
Namely handle separate frames in separate threads,
but do disk read from a critical section since HDD
is not so friendly with lots threads requesting for
data from it.
Makes proxy building much faster than it was before.
This commit implements multi-threaded calculation of frames
when building proxies. Both scaling and undistortion steps
are now threaded.
Frames and proxy resolution are still handled one-by-one,
saving files after every single step. So if HDD is not so
fast, this commit could have not so much benefit.
Internal changes:
- Added IMB_scaleImBuf_threaded which scales given image
buffer in multiple threads and uses bilinear filtering.
- libmv's camera intrinsics now have SetThreads() method
which is used to specify how many OpenMP threads to use
for buffer distortion/undistortion.
And yeah, this code is using OpenMP for threading.
- Reshuffled a bit libmv-capi calls and added function
BKE_tracking_distortion_set_threads to specify number
of threads used by intrinscis.
use mpolys instead and simplify checks for wire edges.
Also rename BKE_mesh_from_curve() --> BKE_mesh_to_curve() since this function converts a mesh into a curve.
I've added a separate camera unit type. It's a bit strange to have an exception for
this but it ensures units are shown in familiar millimeters and it also ensures
backwards compatibility.
The previous implementation of Freestyle edge/face marks was refactored
based on suggestions from the latest code review by Campbell. The new
implementation relies on mesh CustomData to store edge/face marks, instead
of introducing extra flags in the core Mesh and BMesh data structures.
The CustomData-based implementation will allow further additions of new
edge/face attributes because of the independence from Mesh/BMesh.
This revision is work in progress, mainly intended to address the review
comments and ask for further code review in view of the trunk merger in
the upcoming 2.67 release.
ALERT! POSSIBLE BREAKING COMMIT, ESPECIALLY FOR SCULPT!
Separate the sculpt sampling function so that it can be reused
from other paint systems. This includes updating of the relevant
coordinates for anchored and rake style brushes, which are now
being updated as part of the stroke system.
I left only code for area-style brush texture mapping in sculpt
code, since it requires a few data structures not present on other
paint systems.
This commit makes it almost as easy to support rake on other systems as
exposing the python UI for it. Also it makes it totally possible to
have texture painting capabilities in vertex paint too :) These commits
will follow very soon.
Also, even if I did my best to keep the code from breaking, (even fixed a
leftover bug from coordinate changes) this is a big change. Please test!
Patch by Jehan Pages (pardon for mis-typing, emacs-nox works not so good with
urf-8 buffers here), with some own modifications. Thanks!
From the patch tracker:
The problem is because of several versions of ffmpeg, but even more because of
the fork situation libav/ffmpeg. So there are some installed versions out there
where you *must* use a float sample for some codec; whereas oppositely on some
other installations, you *must* use the int sample. So for some people, one
works not the other, and reciprocally.
As a consequence, you can't just have a switch codec-based, like in current
code, which decides on the float or int implementation, you must necessarily
have a runtime test because you won't know until then if ogg vorbis will use
one or another sample (note: that's true also for AC3 as I fixed the exact same
bug in DVDStyler for AC3 encoding a few months ago; and I guess it would be same
for AAC).
Some notes from self:
- New FFmpeg requires using FLTP for AAC, AC3 and Vorbis, it's not supported
by audaspace and result in this case would be just wrong. Throw an error
in cases FLTP is trying to be used.
- Moved strict_std_compliance a bit upper. When we'll support FLTP both
FLT and FLTP for AAC would need to be using FF_COMPLIANCE_EXPERIMENTAL.
- It is nice to have such check of supported by codec formats anyway.
