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.
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.
Why did I do this:
* It is more clean, shorter and nice looking with method chaining,
i.e. instead of:
shader.setColor(...)
.setOtherParam(5);
texture1.bind(MyShader::Texture1Layer);
texture2.bind(MyShader::Texture2Layer);
We now have this:
shader.setColor(...)
.setOtherParam(5)
.setTexture1(texture1)
.setTexture2(texture2);
* It is now also clear which texture type is expected, the layer
constant did not say anything about type.
* Also it is possible to use new features (multi bind, bindless
textures etc.) while preserving the same public API.
The only potential disadvantage is that the textures don't stay bound
like uniform values do, but this become a non-issue with bindless
textures. As usual, the old way is now deprecated and will be removed in
some future release.
Previously the API didn't encourage the user to set up and activate
shader before drawing the meshes, leading to unintuitive behavior:
// Can I just call draw() or do I have to fully understand the
// meaning of the universe before?
mesh.draw();
Now the draw() needs the shader passed explicitly as parameter, which
should hint that the shader must be set up somehow:
// Right, so this needs just a shader and that's all. Expecting this
// I fortunately *did* configure all the uniforms before this call.
mesh.draw(shader);
It is also possible to pass the shader as rvalue, in case the drawing is
just a one-off thing and is already fully configured.
mesh.draw(MyShader{});
As usual, the original API is kept, is marked as deprecated and will be
removed in some future release.
As we are now using absolute includes, there is no need to prefix
everything with "magnum<Namespace>" etc. All generated configuration
files are renamed to configure.h and their path is included _before_
everything else to avoid accidental collisions.
The only places where they aren't absolute are:
- when header is included from corresponding source file
- when including headers which are not part of final installation (e.g.
test-specific configuration, headers from Implementation/)
Everything what was in src/ is now in src/Corrade, everything from
src/Plugins is now in src/MagnumPlugins, everything from external/ is in
src/MagnumExternal. Added new CMakeLists.txt file and updated the other
ones for the moves, no other change was made. If MAGNUM_BUILD_DEPRECATED
is set, everything compiles and installs like previously except for the
plugins, which are now in MagnumPlugins and not in Magnum/Plugins.
Fixed old references to Buffer::Usage, fixed parameter order in Image
constructor, fixed some function references. Added explicit references
to linkable stuff.
Encourages vectorization and generic usage even more. Some functions
were rewritten to make use of the new features, resulting in shorter and
more readable code. This also fixes the annoying naming collision with
WINAPI Rectangle() function.
The old Rectangle is now subclass of Range2D, is marked as deprecated
and will be removed in future release.
Buffer usage is used as parameter in many functions, e.g. in
*Framebuffer::read() and *Texture::image(), but they are rather seldom
used and including whole Buffer.h file just for one enum is just
overkill. The old Buffer::Usage is now alias to BufferUsage, it is
marked as deprecated and will be removed in future release.
All three rendering functions (separated, interleaved with upload to GPU,
interleaved with mapping to GPU) are now using common code and then they
reorder the data to fit particular requirements. The data shuffling might
slow down things a bit, but it is optimized for the most common path (we
are rendering to interleaved array, which then get unpacked if needed,
not the other way around), so it shouldn't be an issue. No premature
optimization again, please.
No redundant naming. Text::Renderer2D and Text::Renderer3D is typedef'd
to old name, the typedefs are deprecated and will be removed in some
future release.
The testing is now slightly more sloppy due to inability to not pass any
Font or GlyphCache object. But it is actually better from user point of
view, as it is now impossible to do that by accident.
Makes some cases less consistent (and some convenience shortcuts
impossible), but goes well with the attitude "don't use pointer when it
can't be null".
Font and text layouting is now abstracted out from its implementation.
Font class is renamed to FreeTypeFont and all the work can be done
through AbstractFont and AbstractLayouter interface.
