Yeah, sorry, I know, the enums are renamed for second or third time in a
row, first they were Image::Format, then ImageFormat, then ColorFormat
and now PixelFormat. But this time it's final and last time they are
renamed and now everything is finally consistent:
* ColorFormat::DepthComponent -- depth is not a color, thus
PixelFormat::DepthComponent makes a lot more sense.
* There will be PixelStorage classes, which will be stored in images
alonside PixelFormat/PixelType enums, making everything nicely
aligned.
* The GL documentation about glTexImage2D() etc. denotes the <format>
and <type> parameters as format and type of *pixel* data, so now we
are _finally_ consistent with the official naming.
I wonder why did I not choose PixelFormat originally. Anyway, the old
<Magnum/ColorFormat.h> header, ColorFormat, ColorType and
CompressedColorFormat types are now aliases to the new ones, are marked
as deprecated and will be removed in some future release (as always, I'm
waiting at least six months before removing the deprecated
functionality).
In OpenGL ES 2.0 there is EXT_draw_buffers, which I overlooked somehow,
so I added it to extension list and included in the implementation. It
combines NV_draw_buffers and NV_fbo_color_attachments, so the
implementation now selects one of the two based on which extension is
supported, preferring the EXT one. Updated the documentation to be
less confusing, fixed extension links. Also the single-output
mapForDraw() is not handled separately on ES anymore and just calls
DrawBuffers implementation with single parameter, resulting in less
generated code.
EXT_draw_buffers can also be called on default framebuffer and
apparently in ES there is no way to map front framebuffer for drawing,
so I removed it from the DefaultFramebuffer::DrawAttachment enum.
This was a leftover from some not-well-thought-out design decision. The
function is now used exclusively for binding for draw, as all
framebuffer reading functions (blit(), read()) are doing the read
binding internally. Moreover it required the user to be extra careful on
ES2, because in many cases there are no separate binding points for
reading and drawing.
The function is now parameter-less and always bind the framebuffer for
drawing. The logic for internal binding was also simplified and on ES2
there are separate implementations for single/separate binding points.
For *Framebuffer::checkStatus() the documentation was updated to explain
the meaning of the parameter on ES2 implementation. Also removed the
need for FramebufferTarget::ReadDraw binding, as it was rather
confusing.
Old *Framebuffer::bind(FramebufferTarget) is now just an alias to the
parameter-less function, ignoring the parameter. Along with
FramebufferTarget::ReadDraw it is marked as deprecated and will be
removed in some future release.
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.
The documentation of ARB_invalidate_subdata mentions that all the
functions are really just a hint for the implementation to make some
performance optimizations and they are not affecting behavior at all. So
it's perfectly fine to do nothing if the extension is not supported.
I didn't do this originally as I mistakenly thought that invalidating
depth buffer would somehow behave the same as clearing it, but that's
not the case.
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.
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.
Until recently (or maybe not too recently) ES3 extension header was
"currently empty", now the extension header is shared with ES2. It's
nice to finally get rid of all the weird ifndefs.
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.
In 1.8.5 it is now possible to reference directly to enum member.
Hooray! Also added explicit @ref here and there, fixing some referencing
bugs along the way.
Passing pointer as function parameter will now mean that it is possible
to pass `nullptr`. Some code examples now look like the parameter is
copied instead of referenced, which is misleading. Updated the
documentation to reflect that more clearly.
