Had to rework the API a bit, the original one (everything through
DebugMessage) should be still available, but marked as deprecated (and
will be removed in some future release).
The whole cycle of reading up on a feature, understanding the feature,
understanding the bigger concept under the feature and then having
understood everything so thoroughly so I can document the functionality
is time consuming.
Mainly to fix linker errors on Windows when using static plugins as
dependencies of other plugins. Don't even let me get started on how much
I hate the dllexport/dllimport hell.
`char*` is now the default type for byte arrays. Results in shorter
code, less annoyances and more convenient testing. As is the case with
Corrade, I'm not doing any compatibility/deprecation layer, as most of
these functions is not widely used anyway.
It is not related to Mesh itself at all, as the attribute indices are
defined in Attribute class. Use
AbstractShaderProgram::maxVertexAttributes() instead.
Each shader now has sample image, example mesh configuration and example
rendering setup. Also properly documented all attribute types and made
introductory chapter for whole Shaders namespace.
In the future, when I get to implement proper DSA clearing, this won't
change currently bound framebuffer and thus it might be useful to be
able to call bind() right after, e.g.:
framebuffer.clear(FramebufferClear::Color)
.bind(FramebufferTarget::ReadDraw);
It's now possible to do the reading operation in one statement.
Previously it was needed to have mutable variable:
Image2D image{ColorFormat::RGBA, ColorType::UnsignedByte};
framebuffer.read(framebuffer.viewport(), image);
Currently:
const Image2D image = framebuffer.read(framebuffer.viewport(),
{ColorFormat::RGBA, ColorType::UnsignedByte});
To make this possible, the two-parameter Image and BufferImage
constructors are now made implicit.
Not sure why I chose to have offset and size in these two function, but
that's probably because I never used them in real code. The original
overloads taking pair of Vector2i are now marked as deprecated and will
be removed in future release.
Direct access to list of children is now provided through
Object::children(), list of features is provided in
AbstractObject::features(). In most cases the range-based-for is good
enough, the previousSibling()/nextSibling() and
previousFeature()/nextFeature() functions are for the cases where user
needs more flexibility.
Because everything that was previously done using firstChild() etc. can
be now done also with children().first() etc., there would be more than
one way to do the same thing. Thus the old functions are now marked as
deprecated and will be removed in some future release.
