The combineIndexArrays() and combineIndexedArrays() API is replaced with
a more generic combineIndexedAttributes(), and thanks to that we also
don't need STL-based duplicate() and removeDuplicates().
There's a lot to change with the current version -- the bloaty tuple,
the useless min/max, and compressing all the way down to 8 bits is not
desirable anymore either. The new function allows to specify a minimal
type to compress to and works also on 8- and 16-byte types, which makes
it possible to also inflate a smaller type into a larger one.
The old function is now deprecated.
The point of this change is to allow greater flexibility and reduce
confusion.
When instanced meshes are implemented, MeshTools::interleave() can be
used for creating interleaved buffers with per-instance data and then
the call to Mesh::setCount() will be harmful and/or confusing, becuase
the user would in fact want to call Mesh::setInstanceCount() instead.
Similarly, MeshTools::compressIndices() can be used to create index
buffer for more than one mesh.
GL 4.4 has ARB_buffer_storage, which (in relatively distant future) will
mean that the current way of Buffer::setData() will be deprecated in
favor of Buffer::setStorage(), similarly as Texture::setStorage()
replaced Texture::setImage(). Thus any function which calls
Buffer::setData() internally is not future-proof.
The old MeshTools::compressIndices() and MeshTools::interleave()
overloads are marked as deprecated and will be removed in future
release.
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.
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.
This is source-incompatible change, but this function probably wasn't
used much in user code, rather its Mesh/Buffer convenience overload.
Actually Containers::Array<char> has _implicit_ conversion operator to
char*, but this should not be an issue, as the conversion is not allowed
on rvalue references, thus the following code shouldn't compile at all.
Not available on GCC < 4.8.1, though.
// ...
char* data;
std::tie(..., data) = MeshTools::compressIndices(...);
Using specialized enum instead of global Type and shitload of type
traits to handle it correctly. Removed TypeTraits::indexType() and
cleaned up MeshTools::compressIndices() while at it.
Now we can use CORRADE_COMPARE() almost exclusively for comparing
Vector, Matrix instances and all containers from STL. Tests running time
for all 31 tests is now around 0.1 sec instead of two seconds like
before.
Disabled compilation of all benchmarks, because TestSuite cannot handle
them yet.
PKGBUILD from AUR now can shamelessly use check() function without
unnecessary dependencies.
All classes moved to MeshTools::Implementation namespace and removed
from Doxygen output. They now all return tuples instead of custom
structures. Updated and improved documentation, removed references to
implementation classes.
