This means when moving large projects with many images/videos/sounds is possible with 'File, External Data, Find Missing Files'.
- needed so we can put peach animatic, glrenders & testrenders on the dvd.
also datatoc.c - brecht's fixes from apricot.
- fixed CMAKE files for Win32 for new ffmpeg libs
- ignore libc in debug build.
TODO: debug build with OpenEXR still fails with unresolved externals due to /MTd flag.

Bugfix #9222. Conversion from UTF-8 to wchar for international fonts did not
check for valid encodings, so user strings with containing invalid characters
could cause crashes.
Finishing a few needed things before the release: changed ShadeInput vars access from a single getAttribute function to individual methods, one for each var, for faster access (needed, since these are accessed over and over during rendering).
Very repetitive code, so I used a few macros to write it. Compiles w/o warnings here (linux, gcc 4.3.0), please report any problems.
This is just an internal change, the Python API is still the same.
This doesn't fix the problems with the corrupted IPO-driver channels in the Outliner after AutoKeying though. I'm not sure what's causing them, but I cannot even seem to be able to disable those channels.
forgot to update the check for valid sequence plugin version #
(The version bump didn't affect sequence plugins so missed it)
This patch also brought the plugin includes back inline with
imbuf stuff. I'm putting it on my todo to see if we can't
remove this duplication so that this is not a reoccuring issue.

This replaces the hard-coded '%PROFILE%\Application Data\..." path
with the correct language-dependant CSIDL_APPDATA.
PLEASE NOTE!
Checks for the previous location have now been REMOVED. Any data
saved in the old hard-coded location will no longer be found by
Blender (this will only affect users of non-english windows.)
The installer has been updated to help the user to migrate their data
to the new location of their choice, if necessary.
Order of preference for .blender on windows is now the following:
1) %HOME% environment var
2) Installation Directory (location of blender.exe)
3) "Current User" (CSIDL_APPDATA)
4) "All Users" (CSIDL_COMMON_APPDATA)
This would cause a very tiny inconvenience where ndof transform wouldn't work if there wasn't an active object (so, only a problem after you delete something and then select objects without setting active).
[#8067] external texture plugin thread-safe modifications
Submitted By: David Anderson (davywavy)
It makes it so the "result" array is passed in, instead of a global var.
I expanded the patch so it will play nice with older plugins that are not
thread safe as well.
I also updated the existing plugins in the release, so they are thread safe.
--------------- What do people think of this.... ------------------
This should maybe be talked about in the functionality board or something,
but what do people think of adding in default texture/sequence plugins.
or making a seperate tree like lib for plugins.
The reason I ask is we have had a couple of upgrades to the plugin system.
(supporting float buffers for sequencer, and this one for textures)
http://www.cs.umn.edu/~mein/blender/plugins does not store revisions of
plugins I just make sure they work with the latest version. This is
getting messy. I haven't upgraded a lot of them to use floats (I know,
I'm lazy, and now this will also make modifications to the plugins)
It would be nice to have some of the standard ones under revision control.
We also seem to be having an explosion of platforms supported. It would
be nice to have platform maintainers compiling plugins as well for releases.
(Its getting to be more work for me to keep up with things...)
I'll go back to my corner now and be quite. ;)
