* Reviewed subtypes, making them more specific and adding new ones.
* Subtypes now have an associated type of units (length, area, volume,
mass, rotation, time, velocity, acceleration). These are not used
yet anywhere.
* Centralized code that decides the name of array items based on
subtype (XYZ, RGB), was copied in 3 places.
* RNA_def_float etc functions still need to be update, will do this
later together with another change.
- added better error feedback when registering operators fails.
- added some python benchmark timers (prints on exit), times number of times py scripts run, average time and total % of time running py scripts.
you can copy operator strings from buttons or the reporting interface and run them in the console.
- Ctrl+C over an operator button copies its python string to the clipboard.
- Paste in the console (1 line only for now).
- operators run from python no longer require all arguments.
- returned ID types from RNA funcs didnt get their ID's assigned which crashed in some cases (still not working for members of ID types).
- ob.create_remder_mesh() wasnt assigning any materials.
- running a script from a file now uses the PyRun_File(FILE *, ...) rather then PyRun_String("exec(open(r'/somepath.py').read())"...), aparently FILE struct on windows could not ensured to be the same between blender and python, since we use our own python on windows now it should be ok.
- generating docs works again (operator update for py style syntax broke them)
- python operator doc strings was being overwritten
- added rna property attribute "default" to get the default value of a property, not working on arrays currently because variable length arrays are not supported.
calling rna functions with the wrong argument type would raise an error like..
expected a string type
Added an error prefix so now the message is..
TypeError: UILayout.item_enumO(): error with argument 3, "value" - expected a string type
* ID blocks can now get RNA properties defined from python, e.g.:
bpy.types.Scene.BoolProperty(..)
* RNA structs/functions/properties can now get pointers duplicated
(mostly strings), since we can't point to some static string then.
* Added ExtensionRNA struct to add into *Type structs for subclassing,
is a bit more compact than defining the 4 variables each time.
Only disadvantage is it requires including RNA in more places.
- simplified C operator API bpy.__ops__ since its wrapped by python now.
- needs the class to have an __idname__ rather then __name__ (like menus, headers)
- convert python names "console.exec" into blender names "CONSOLE_OT_exec" when registering (store the blender name as class.__idname_bl__, users scripters wont notice)
- bpy.props.props ???, removed
this works for the calling operators from python and using the RNA api.
bpy.ops.CONSOLE_exec() is now bpy.ops.console.exec()
eg.
split.itemO("PARTICLE_OT_editable_set", text="Free Edit") becomes... split.itemO("particle.editable_set", text="Free Edit")
For now any operator thats called checks if its missing _OT_ and assumes its python syntax and converts it before doing the lookup.
bpy.ops is a python class in release/ui/bpy_ops.py which does the fake submodules and conversion, the C operator api is at bpy.__ops__
personally Id still rather rename C id-names not to contain the _OT_ text which would avoid the conversion, its called a lot since the UI has to convert the operators.
Calling rna functions with invalid keywords, too many keywords and too many args would fail silently
- now raise an error with invalid keywords and a list of valid ones, raise an error when too many args are given.
- calling rna functions would alloc a ParameterList each time, changed to use a stack variable (2 pointers and an int).
- store the number of parameters ParameterList
- python exception types were wrong in many cases, (using attribute error rather then type error)
- fixes to small errors in python UI scripts.
* 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.
* Enums can now be dynamically created in the _itemf callback,
using RNA_enum_item(s)_add, RNA_enum_item_end. All places asking
for enum items now need to potentially free the items.
* This callback now also gets context, this was added specifically
for operators. This doesn't fit design well at all, needed to do
some ugly hacks, but can't find a good solution at the moment.
* All enums must have a default list of items too, even with an
_itemf callback, for docs and fallback in case there is no context.
* Used by MESH_OT_merge, MESH_OT_select_similar, TFM_OT_select_orientation.
* Also changes some operator properties that were enums to booleas
(unselected, deselect), to make them consistent with other ops.
Now this will return True
isinstance(bpy.data.meshes[0], bpy.types.Mesh)
Use the StructRNA identifier for the new classes name properties because classes were being named by the data names rather then the type names.
Set the __module__ for the new type which makes printing the class not use the script name where the type is first initialized.
eg: bpy.types.Mesh instead of buttons_object.Mesh
This still isnt quite right since opertators and panels all get their own type, when they should all use an operator type.
* Fix crash in python with enum properties, and don't throw
error if no matching identifier is found. This shouldn't
happen, but it should break a python script either, which
is not at fault.
* Fix a wrong variable initialization in fluidsim.
Added slice to PyRNA collections and arrays (py3 only).
eg.
some_verts = mesh.verts[0:10]
some_rna_array[4:-1] = [0,1,2,3]
Collections dont support assignment, when assigning slices, resizing the array isnt support like with python lists.
coords = array.array('f', [0.0]) * len(me.verts) * 3
m.verts.foreach_get('co', coords)
the reverse works with set also.
currently works for python buffers or sequences (slower)
Quick speed test with 1,179,654 verts.
*foreach_get*
list 0.377
array 0.032
py 10.29
*foreach_set*
list 0.184
array 0.028
py 9.79
where python was done like this...
----
i= 0
for v in m.verts:
co = v.co
l[i] = co[0]; l[i+1] = co[0]; l[i+2] = co[0]
i+=3
----
some of the error checking here needs to be cleaned up to account for different invalid bad inputs.
Adding a UI to set the type on startup can be added easily.
# ----
class myPlayer(GameTypes.KX_GameObject):
def die(self):
# ... do stuff ...
self.endObject()
# make an instance
player = myPlayer(gameOb) # gameOb is made invalid now.
player.die()
# ----
One limitation (which could also be an advantage), is making the subclass instance will return that subclass everywhere, you cant have 2 different subclasses of the same BGE data at once.
* Added support for passing collections to/from RNA functions,
this is done using a ListBase of CollectionPointerLink, which
is a standard ListBase link + PointerRNA.
* Added editable active uv/vcol layer to Mesh.
* Armature.bones now includes all bones, not only the ones without
parents.
* Modifier UV layer fields now are allowed to be empty, previously
this would set the name during modifier evaluation if there was
none.
* all mathutils types now have optional callbacks
* PyRNA returns mathutils quat and euler types automatically when they have the rotation subtype.
* PyRNA, reuse the BPy_StructRNA PyObject rather name making a new one for each function returned.
* use more arithb.c functions for Mathutils quaternion type (less inline cruft).
* BGE Mathutils integration mostly finished- KX_PyMath now converts to Mathutils types rather then lists.
* make all mathutils types share the same header so they can share a number of functions - dealloc, getWrapped, getOwner.
check Save Image or Export PLY operator for example.
Also these code changes:
* Added some RNA collection iterator macros to simplify code.
* Fix bpy.props.BoolProperty not working correct.
* Merge uiDefAutoButsRNA/uiDefAutoButsRNA_single into one.
* RNA_struct_name_get_alloc function to get the name from a
pointer, instead of having to deal with name property.
* CTX_data_pointer_get_type to get data from context with
a check for the RNA type.
Any 3x3 or 4x4 rna matrix will automatically be returned as a Mathutils matrix.
This makes useful stuff like multiplying a vector location by an object matrix possible.
ob = bpy.data.scenes[0].objects[0]
print (ob.data.verts[0].co * ob.matrix)
Also added mathutils matrix types to the BGE GameObject.localOrientation, worldOrientation
* MT_Matrix3x3 added getValue3x3 and setValue3x3, assumed a 4x3 float array.
* KX_GameObject.cpp convenience functions NodeSetGlobalOrientation, NodeGetLocalOrientation, NodeGetLocalScaling, NodeGetLocalPosition.
* 2.5 python api now initializes modules BGL, Mathutils and Geometry
* modules py3 PyModuleDef's use PyModuleDef_HEAD_INIT, rather then {}, was making msvc fail to build.
* added macros for Vector_ReadCallback, Vector_WriteCallback etc. to check if the callback pointer is set before calling the function.
- allow RNA_property_enum_items to take the totitems int pointer as NULL (spares a loop on all the enum items). this change also makes enums types with no enum array crash in some places, could support these though Id rather disallow them, generating docs is a quick way to test for this.
- open recent file operator used and enum to open the recent file without an enum array, changed to an int type.
- added space_logic.py poll functions
in short, vectors can work as if they are thin wrapped but not crash blender if the original data is removed.
* RNA vector's return Mathutils vector types.
* BGE vectors for GameObject's localPosition, worldPosition, localPosition, localScale, worldScale, localInertia.
* Comment USE_MATHUTILS define to disable returning vectors.
Example...
* 2.49... *
loc = gameOb.worldPosition
loc[1] = 0
gameOb.worldPosition = loc
* With vectors... *
gameOb.worldPosition[1] = 0
* But this wont crash... *
loc = gameOb.worldPosition
gameOb.endObject()
loc[1] = 0 # will raise an error that the objects removed.
This breaks games which assume return values are lists.
Will add this to eulers, matrix and quaternion types later.
* Python apis iterator didnt work, for example [f for f in mesh.faces] # failed.
* Python apis collection.items(), collections without names now return (index,value) pairs, better then returning nothing.
* bpy.ui and bpy.props modules were incorrectly named
* Mesh vertex colors red/blue needed to be swapped on getting/setting.
* Mesh vertex colors were not clamped.
Updated Mathutils.Vector/Euler/Quaternion/Matrix so these are types rather then module methods, each type now has a tp_new function, matching python builtins float/int/str.
Also cleaned up float conversion and arg passing.
Changed buttons_objects.py...
if ob in groups.objects: # no longer works
if ob.name in groups.objects: # is the new syntax
...its more dict like and a lot faster (avoids python iterating over each item and comparing each, use a single rna lookup instead).
Merging changes made by Arystanbek in the soc-2009-kazanbas branch,
plus some things modified and added by me.
* Operator exec is called execute in python now, due to conflicts
with python exec keyword.
* Operator invoke/execute now get context argument.
* Fix crash executing operators due to bpy_import_main_set not being
set with Main pointer.
* The bpy.props module now has the FloatProperty/IntProperty/
StringProperty/BoolProperty functions to define RNA properties for
operators.
* Operators now have an __operator__ property to get the actual RNA
operator pointers, this is only temporary though.
* bpy.ops.add now allows the operator to be already registered, it
will simply overwrite the existing one.
* Both the ui and io directories are now scanned and run on startup.
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.
Example sequencer menu
self.layout.column()
self.layout.item_enumO("SEQUENCER_OT_effect_strip_add", property='type', value='ADD', text="Effect Strip (Add)")
* 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.
- Support for python to convert a PyObject into a collection (uses a list of dicts - quite verbose :/)
- Operators can now take collection args when called from python.
- Support for printing operators that use collections (macro recording).
- Added RNA_pointer_as_string which prints all pointer prop values as a python dict.
Example that can run in the in test.py (F7 key)
bpy.ops.VIEW3D_OT_select_lasso(path=[{"loc":(0, 0), "time":0}, {"loc":(1000, 0), "time":0}, {"loc":(1000, 1000), "time":0}], type='SELECT')
for some reason lasso locations always print as 0,0. Need to look into why this is.
