It doesn't really work for tests that depend on more than one plugin
(because there i would need to handle all combinations, somehow), but it
does the job when the end user has such use case.
This makes it possible to:
- finally use Magnum as a CMake subproject on Windows and have your
executables not fail to run with a "DLL missing" error (and the
setting is put to cache so superprojects just implicitly make use of
that)
- run tests on Windows without having to install first
- use dynamic plugins from a CMake subproject on any platform without
having to install first or load them by filename --- and the plugin
directory is now easily discovered as relative to
libraryLocation() of the library implementing given plugin interface
No matter how broken iOS is in CMake 3.6, $<CONFIG> seems to work there,
so reducing the amount of code and putting the configure into a single
place independently of what generator or what system/build is used.
Compared to current state it always adds Debug/configure.h instead of
putting it directly to the ${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}, but the
alternative would be some CMake branching again and I just removed that,
so no.
This also prepares everything for plugin libraries being put into a
central place -- the config files don't depend on their location
anymore.
Basically mirroring the API of Trade::AbstractImporter, as that proved
to be useful. The old crazy openSingleData() and openData(horribleStuff)
are deprecated and will be removed in a future release.
No backwards compatibility is provided for font plugins, these need to
be adapted.
Allows the Font and FontConverter plugins be built without TARGET_GL
enabled. That was the last piece missing for making the magnum-plugins
repo completely GL-free.
The current testing workflow had quite a few major flaws and it was no
longer possible after the move of Any* plugins to core. Among the flaws
is:
* Every plugin was basically built twice, once as the real plugin and
once as a static testing library. Most of the build shared common
object files, but nevertheless it inflated build times and made the
buildsystem extremely complex.
* Because the actual plugin binary was never actually loaded during the
test, it couldn't spot problems like:
- undefined references
- errors in metadata files
- mismatched plugin interface/version, missing entry points
- broken static plugin import files
* Tests that made use of independent plugins (such as TgaImageConverter
test using TgaImporter to verify the output) had a hardcoded
dependency on such plugins, making a minimal setup very hard.
* Dynamic loading of plugins from the Any* proxies was always directed
to the install location on the filesystem with no possibility to
load these directly from the build tree. That caused random ABI
mismatch crashes, or, on the other hand, if no plugins were
installed, particular portions of the codebase weren't tested at all.
Now the workflow is the following:
* Every plugin is built exactly once, either as dynamic or as static.
* The test always loads it via the plugin manager. If it's dynamic,
it's loaded straight from the build directory; if it's static, it
gets linked to the test executable directly.
* Plugins used indirectly are always served from the build directory
(if enabled) to ensure reproducibility and independence on what's
installed on the filesystem. Missing presence of these plugins causes
particular tests to be simply skipped.
* Plugins that have extensive tests for internal functionality that's
not exposed through the plugin interface are still built in two
parts, but the internal tests are simply consuming the OBJECT files
directly instead of linking to a static library.
Statically built plugins get imported automatically when using CMake
3.1 and newer. Otherwise simply #include a corresponding
importStaticPlugin.cpp file.
Proofread everything, make the packages the first choice (and manual
build only as a backup catch-all solution), don't force the users to
CMake but provide useful snippets to show how to use the libs from
CMake.
And removing the bundled std::optional implementation. This finally
makes this library compatible with C++17. Since this would be a huge
backwards-incompatible change that would make everyone angry, the
following had to be done in case both CORRADE_BUILD_DEPRECATED and
MAGNUM_BUILD_DEPRECATED is defined:
* Under C++11 and C++14, Containers::Optional / Containers::NullOpt is
aliased to std::optional / std::nullopt. This is no worse than the
state before, when we also provided these symbols.
* Under C++17, where standard <optional> header is available,
Containers::Optional provides implicit conversion to it. Only one-way
conversion is supported, as there was fortunately no Magnum API that
took std::optional via parameter, and there might be some corner
cases that this doesn't cover. The goal is to have all examples
compiling with the old API, at least.
* There's a new test especially for this, which checks that both the
C++11 and C++17 ways of doing things work as they should.
The typedef and conversion is marked as deprecated, so it will spit out
many warnings to push users to upgrade. I hope I can completely remove
this mess soon :/
There will be numerous additions to this one so it made sense to make it
a static library instead of a header-only library. That also allows
CMake users to just link to Magnum::OpenGLTester instead of going
through the pain of a huge branching in order to find a correct
windowless application just to run their tests. It could have been done
even without the static library using a INTERFACE target, but that
wouldn't work on CMake < 3.0 (which, unfortunately, quite a few people
are still stuck with).
Unfortunately it's already heavily used elsewhere so I had to go through
the pain of deprecating the old implementation. The old implementation
was header-only so it can't be just typedef'd to the new one as there
would be linker failures. So the old header is just kept as it was, with
only the macros reduced.
As with Corrade, this is not exactly backwards compatible, but for
common use case without OBJECT libraries this should not be a problem.
In any case, recreate the build dir and update your copy of all
Find*.cmake modules to avoid weird things happening.
User-facing changes:
* Documentation of all Find*.cmake modules converted to
reStructuredText to follow official CMake guidelines.
* The newfangled way to use the libraries is to link to Magnum::Shaders
instead of adding ${MAGNUM_SHADERS_INCLUDE_DIRS} to include path and
linking to ${MAGNUM_SHADERS_LIBRARIES}.
* The old ${MAGNUM_*_LIBRARIES} are deprecated and now just expand to
Magnum::* target. Use the target directly. These are also enabled
only when building with MAGNUM_BUILD_DEPRECATED.
* The old ${MAGNUM_*_INCLUDE_DIRS} are removed as the Magnum::* targets
cover these too.
Internal changes:
* Global state such as include_directories() was replaced with
target-specific settings.
