As usual, the old APIs are still present, but marked as deprecated.
Existing code is not updated yet to ensure I didn't break anything with
this.
This way it's much more intuitive and makes the code shorter and nicer
in many cases. Shaders are now also able to hide irrelevant
draw/dispatch APIs to avoid accidents.
Deprecated for 2018.04, it's been almost a year since. Whoever is using
Magnum regularly updated already, and who not can always upgrade
gradually (2018.02, 2018.04, 2018.10, 2019.01 etc.).
What's left is *a lot* of places taking monstrous
std::vector<std::reference_wrapper> and that can't be changed to
std::vector<Containers::Reference> in a source-compatible way. Even that
would be only a temporary change, since the goal is to fully avoid
dependency on STL in those cases.
The final version of these APIs should take
Containers::ArrayView<Containers::Reference> and be implicitly
convertible froom e.g. std::vector<Containers::Reference>. That's
definitely possible, but not in time for 2019.01, so instead of forcing
users to temporary pass a `{vec.begin(), vec.size()}` everywhere instead
of just `vec`, I'm rather keeping these APIs intact.
Similarly to pixel formats, there is now generic Magnum::MeshPrimitive
and Magnum::MeshIndexType, which is convertible to GL::MeshPrimitive and
GL::MeshIndexType using GL::meshPrimitive() and GL::meshIndexType(). In
addition, the following is done:
* The original GL::Mesh::IndexType is now GL::MeshIndexType, original
name is now just a typedef.
* GL::Mesh::indexSize() is deprecated in favor of
Magnum::meshIndexTypeSize() and GL::Mesh::indexTypeSize().
* New GL::Mesh::indexType() and GL::MeshView::mesh() getters (not sure
why they were omitted)
* GL::Mesh::indexType(), GL::Mesh::indexTypeSize(),
GL::MeshView::setIndexRange() now expect that the mesh is indexed
(useful property in my opinion, also avoids getting random results).
* The extra MeshPrimitive::LinesAdjacency etc. are still present for
backwards compatibility, but marked as deprecated. Use
GL::MeshPrimitive values instead.
At the moment just the GL library itself w/o the tests, and without
backwards compatibility aliases. The following types were left in the
root namespace, despite being in the GL/ directory, as they will get
moved back soon:
* Image, CompressedImage and their dimensional typedefs
* ImageView, CompressedImageView and their dimensional typedefs
* PixelStorage
Not PixelFormat etc., that one will stay in the GL namespace and a
completely new PixelFormat enum will be provided in the root namespace.
Minimal updates (just the include guards) so Git is hopefully able to
detect the rename and track the history properly.
Everything except Magnum::GL doesn't compile now.
Followup to previous commit -- links to opengl.org are now redirected to
khronos.org and the extension links have the same format for both GL and
GLES. That allows me to remove some of the Doxygen aliases and use just
a single set of the functions for both GL and GLES.
Actually properly supporting ANGLE_instanced_arrays. Emscripten
currently has the functions without the ANGLE suffix. Only causes linker
warnings when not used, need to fill a bugreport and fix properly.
In OpenGL ES this is implemented in EXT_multi_draw_arrays extension, if
it is not available, the functionality is emulated using sequence of
normal draw() calls.
On desktop GL this is provided by ARB_draw_instanced (GL 3.1). Base
instance is available only on desktop GL (4.2, ARB_base_instance). In
ES2 the instanced functionality is provided by three (!) different
extensions (ANGLE_instanced_arrays, EXT_draw_instanced,
NV_draw_instanced), the proper implementation is chosen on context
creation based on what extension is available. Though we don't have
extension loader for ES yet, thus all these extensions are disabled and
the implementation has assertion in it.
Added blind test which tests only that something has been drawn and no
errors were emitted, but not whether the right command is used. I'll
probably need to check this later, because the Mesh::draw() behemoth is
going slightly out of hand :)
Added base vertex specification, not differentiating between vertex and
index count. The old setVertexRange(), setIndexRange(4) and
setIndexRange(2) are now aliases to new setCount(), setBaseVertex(),
setIndexRange(3) and setIndexRangge(1) functions, are marked as
deprecated and will be removed in future release.
