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 :/
In the particular case of AnyImageConverter the function needs to access
manager and load/instantiate plugin using it, which is non-const
operation. More generally, it puts unnecessary restrictions on what the
plugin can and cannot do.
Provide a way to convert compressed images to data/file (i.e. saving
DXT5-compressed image data to DDS file), improve feature flags so that
the plugin can properly advertise what's supported (for example some
plugin may just be able to compress RGBA to DXT5, but not to save that to
DDS file).
This is backwards-incompatible API breakage (renamed enum value), but
because the original API wasn't in any official release yet, I'm not
doing any deprecation and backwards compatibility.
With pixel pack/unpack support it will be possible to create views onto
sub-images, renamed the class to reflect that.
The old Magnum/ImageReference.h and ImageReference types are now aliases
to ImageView.h and ImageView types, are marked as deprecated and will be
removed in future release.
`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.
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.
