Despite what the standard tries to say. I bet a large portion of
<type_traits> is impossible to implement without it, which is why all
STL implementations define it there already.
There's Containers::Triple now for this instead. Printing a message to
Error in case of a failure might have made sense back in 2010, but now
it absolutely doesn't, so it's additionally wrapped in an Optional now.
Also looks like the actual use without "convenient" std::tie() is a lot
less verbose. Haha.
Using Containers::Pair allows me to make certain Range APIs constexpr
that weren't possible in C++11 before. Compared to std::pair it's also
trivially copyable, which is a nice property when storing it in various
growable containers.
As usual, the <Corrade/Containers/PairStl.h> include is in place to help
people with porting, although in many cases this change will be
breaking. I had to do it at some point anyway, so the earlier it is the
better.
Instead of defining the same types and vaguely risking little
differences. Typedefs that don't exist in Magnum.h (such as integer
quaternions) and typedefs that differ from Magnum.h (such as
using Vector<4, T> instead of Vector4<T>) stay as typedefs, to make it
clear what *deliberately* differs and what not.
Typedefs that didn't conflict with the template types in Math (such as
Vector3us) are removed entirely, as the typedef from Magnum.h can be
used directly in that case, without any `using`.
I did this back in 2010 because it "felt like the right thing to do",
given that all of Magnum depended on Math and not vice versa. But,
strictly speaking, Math already uses typedefs from Magnum/Types.h so why
it couldn't also bring in the Corrade namespace, and the
Debug/Warning/Error names too. Having to type out Corrade:: in all these
was really just a waste of time, weird inconsistency in docs and an
extra roadblock for whoever might want to contribute anything there.
Partially needed to avoid build breakages because Corrade itself
switched as well, partially because a cleanup is always good. Done
except for (STL-heavy) code that's deprecated or SceneGraph-related APIs
that are still quite full of STL as well.
It should be returning twice the value, this is the half-angle. Sad that
this went unnoticed for so long, extra bad points for me to have a
complicated test but not actually verifying that the returned value
makes sense, sigh.
A *nasty* option would be to just fix it, but -- even though there's a
chance nonbody ever used it since nobody ever complained -- it would
introduce breakages to any code that fixed it and that's something to
definitely not do in a trusted codebase. So it's instead deprecated,
firing an annoying warning to whoever might have called it, and there's
a (temporary) replacement called halfAngle() that does exactly the same
but is named appropriately.
Then, once the deprecated angle() is removed (the usual deprecation
period, so a year or the span of two releases, whichever takes longer)
and enough time passes (so another year at least), I'll reintroduce it
with a correct return value.
Most of the testing scaffolding here is a preparation for the actually
complex formats like BC6/7 or ASTC. Also, it's great to be able to use
Magnum from Python to prepare data for testing the C++ Magnum APIs.
The perf cost is just too great for these to be enabled always. The only
place where the assertions are kept always is in the batch APIs -- there
it's assumed the function is called on large enough data to offset this
overhead, plus since it's often dealing with large blocks of data the
memory safety is more important than various FP drifts which were the
usual case why other assertions were firing.
The change won't make any difference in Release, but in Debug builds it
avoids calling into set() for every element. This function showed up
pretty high in profiler output for DebugTools::CompareImage, now it
doesn't anymore. In particular, for ShadersMeshVisualizerGLTest it
results in ~10% reduction in run time, which is quite significant.
The
(size - 1)/8 + 1
expression is the same as
(size - 1)/8 + 8/8
which is the same as the following in all cases except when size == 0,
for which it underflows:
(size - 1 + 8)/8 == (size + 7)/8
To avoid needless surprises, I'm changing to what's used everywhere
else, including the BitArray, and also reusing the already-calculated
value for the _data array size.
The article this API was originally based on assumes a scenario which
just *isn't* matching usual practices here, giving wrong results. Too
bad I didn't spend more time questioning the proof there and just
blindly assumed it's correct because everyone said so.
Won't be typing all that reasoning again in the commit message, see the
changelog entry and the comment in the test for details.
For generic code, which would otherwise have to invent some SFINAE
"use castInto() if the types are different and Utility::copy()
otherwise" nastiness in every such case, and that's just annoying.
Counterparts to the sRGB-converting APIs, for when one doesn't want to
perform sRGB conversion. Or for "wrong sRGB" workflows. Named like this
and not just `fromRgbInt()` to make the calls at least a bit suspicious.
I should probably go over all Math tests and include Magnum.h there. No
idea why did I do it like this back in 2010, maybe to have the Math
library "independent" from the rest of Magnum? That can be done even
without having to suffer like this...
