BF-admins agree to remove header information that isn't useful,
to reduce noise.
- BEGIN/END license blocks
Developers should add non license comments as separate comment blocks.
No need for separator text.
- Contributors
This is often invalid, outdated or misleading
especially when splitting files.
It's more useful to git-blame to find out who has developed the code.
See P901 for script to perform these edits.
- script execution is off by default
- if a blend file attempts to execute a script
this shows a message in the header with the action
that was suppressed (script/driver/game-autostart) and 2 buttons to either reload the file trusted, or to ignore the message.
- the file selector will always default to use the trust setting in the user preferences,
but reloading an open file will keep using the current setting (whatever was set before or set on the command-line).
- added SCons setting WITH_BF_PYTHON_SECURITY, this sets the default state for the user prefereces not to trust blend files on load.
... this option was in CMake before, but always off, now its enabled by default for SCons and CMake, and forced on in CMake for now.
The operator names all show up in the Search button. As such is nicer if they
can all have the main words capitalized.
e.g. "Snap strips" should be "Snap Strips"
"Copy to clipboard" should be "Copy to Clipboard"
This was done with a mix of bash tools, regex, and manual work because I'm too rushed into regex :)
+ fix bge stereo eye separation tooltip
this report exposed multiple bugs in blender when using a non utf8 compatible home directory.
- bpy.utils.script_paths() would crash when homedir wasn't utf8 (reported bug)
- PyC_DefaultNameSpace() - would raise an error when running when __file__ was non utf8.
- preset filepath property was not set to accept non utf8.
- bpy.paths.display_name would raise an error on non utf8 paths, (used for preset draw)
F8 key enabled again, useful for script UI development.
- keying set freeing wasnt freeing from all scenes and the builtin list.
- PointerProperty() cant refer to a removed python srna type (fixed in rigify and netrender).
- Added a check for freeing a type used by a PointerProperty but its very slow, makes reloading take ~10sec. Only enabled this in debug mode for now.
Netrender register() function isnt re-registering the property, probably because the module is cached by python and not re-run.
path -> filepath (for rna and operators, as agreed on with elubie)
path -> data_path (for windowmanager context functions, this was alredy used in many places)
there are internal memory problems which can make it crash still.
If you remove all directories in the scripts folder except for 'modules' and 'ui', it runs without crashes.
Only source/blender/editors/ dir, should not give errors on different platforms
Only removing: UI_*.h, ED_*.h, WM_*.h, DNA_*.h, IMB_*.h, RNA_*.h, PIL_*.h
- bpy is now a python package, this makes it easier to add utility modules and adjust python startup which was previously using verbose Py/C api. Access should not be any slower since both C and Python modules use dictionary access.
- loop over scripts and load via python (currently F8 reload isnt working, will add back shortly)
- the C module is kept but renamed to _bpy and not meant for direct access from anything but the bpy package.
- bpy_types.py is an exception since it runs before the bpy package is initialized.
Appending and Linking
* Linking Operator, invokes filebrowser for Append/Link
* Separated the append/link function into three parts:
** BLO_library_append_begin finds main for appending
** BLO_library_append_named_part appends one Object,Group, Material, ...
** BLO_library_append_end actually reads and expands the libraries
NOTE 1:
I also changed the returned properties for the filebrowser operators to the following convention:
"path" - the full path to a file or directory, means what is in directory + filename buttons in filebrowser
"directory" - the content of the directory button in filebrowser
"filename" - the content of the filename button in filebrowser
Usually only path should be required, but in some cases it might be more convenient to retrieve the parts separately.
Ton, Brecht: If you have time to take a look, let me know if anything needs to be fixed.
Send the full python stack trace to the reporting api,
added BPY_exception_buffer which temporarily overrides sys.stdout and sys.stderr to get the output (uses the io module in py3 StringIO in py2 to avoid writing into a real file), pity the Py/C api has no function to do this.
fix for crash when showing menu's that have no items.
