As with Corrade, this is not exactly backwards compatible, but for
common use case without OBJECT libraries this should not be a problem.
In any case, recreate the build dir and update your copy of all
Find*.cmake modules to avoid weird things happening.
User-facing changes:
* Documentation of all Find*.cmake modules converted to
reStructuredText to follow official CMake guidelines.
* The newfangled way to use the libraries is to link to Magnum::Shaders
instead of adding ${MAGNUM_SHADERS_INCLUDE_DIRS} to include path and
linking to ${MAGNUM_SHADERS_LIBRARIES}.
* The old ${MAGNUM_*_LIBRARIES} are deprecated and now just expand to
Magnum::* target. Use the target directly. These are also enabled
only when building with MAGNUM_BUILD_DEPRECATED.
* The old ${MAGNUM_*_INCLUDE_DIRS} are removed as the Magnum::* targets
cover these too.
Internal changes:
* Global state such as include_directories() was replaced with
target-specific settings.
103% of use cases use the returned value directly without checking, so
we might as well do the check ourselves. Added new function hasCurrent()
and added deprecated backward-compatibility conversion and -> operators.
Wow, that creeped to a lot of places.
Last dinosaur from the pointer age.
It is often annoying to write e.g. this, especially in generic code:
T dot = Math::Vector<size, T>::dot(a, b);
When this is more than enough and the compiler can infer the rest from
the context:
T dot = Math::dot(a, b);
There are more downsides and confusing cases (you can call
Math::Vector<3, T>::dot(), Math::Vector3<T>::dot() and Color3::dot() and
it is still the same function), so I made these as free functions in
Math namespace. You can now also abuse ADL for the calls, but I would
advise against that for better readability:
T d = dot(a, b); // dot?! what on earth is dot? and what is a?
The only downside found when porting is that you need to specify the
type somehow when having both parameters as initializer lists:
T d = dot({2.0f, -1.5f}, {1.0f, 2.5f}); // error
T d = dot(Complex{2.0f, -1.5f}, {1.0f, 2.5f}); // okay
But that's probably reasonable (and it's also highly corner case,
the functions were used this way only in tests).
The original static member functions are of course still present, but
marked as deprecated and will be removed at some point in future.
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.
No backward compatibility issues should exist, as the class is in most
(if not all) cases used with unscoped name:
class MyShader: public AbstractShaderProgram {
public:
typedef Attribute<0, Vector3> Position;
// ...
};
New in 2.8.9, much cleaner than the previous "solution". Also cleaned up
the surroundings a bit. Fixed cases where PIC was forced independently
of the settings, for plugins the PIC is now also set only when
needed/requested.
The indexed binding is allowed for only some types (atomic counters,
uniforms, shader storage and transform feedback), thus we need separate
enum for that. Because the bind() function will be used far more often
than setTargetHint(), the original Target enum is now renamed to
TargetHint and the new Target enum contains (in non-deprecated build)
only three values.
For backwards compatibility, though, we need to have all original Target
values, thus the new Target enum contains also all other values from
TargetHint, but they are marked as deprecated and (at least) run-time
checked in bind() so they aren't accidentaly used for indexed binding.
Similarly there are also deprecated Target overloads of Buffer() and
setTargetHint(). It's ugly, but hopefully will suffice for now. This mess
will be removed as soon as possible in some upcoming version.
