The general part stays in the root namespace, while the GL-specific
stuff goes to the GL namespace. Also all GL-specific documentation was
moved to relevant APIs in the GL namespace. This finally allows me to
build PixelStorage.cpp as part of the root namespace.
The PixelStorage::pixelSize() function and
PixelStorage::dataProperties() taking a pair of GL::PixelFormat /
GL::PixelType enums is deprecated, use GL::pixelSize() and
dataProperties() taking pixel size directly instead. A lot of code is
still using these, including images; the deprecated aliases are inlined
in the header to avoid a compile-time dependency on the GL library.
It is a valid usecase, e.g. when saving a screenshot in an oneliner:
pngImageConverter->exportToFile(defaultFramebuffer.read(
defaultFramebuffer.viewport(), {PixelFormat::RGB,
PixelType::UnsignedByte}), "screenshot.png");
Makes it far easier to detect pixel storage misconfigurations and
improperly sized data arrays. Data owning classes (Image,
Trade::ImageData) accept Containers::Array<char> while wrappers
(ImageView, BufferImage) accept Containers::ArrayView<const void>.
ImageView reinterprets the passed array as const char to enable pointer
arithmetic on the data.
The old way (constructor/setData() call accepting void*) is now marked as
deprecated and will be removed in some future release. Because decay of
fixed-size arrays to void* is preferred to calling Containers::ArrayView
constructor, there are two more overloads to have proper handling of
const T(&)[n] and std::nullptr_t arguments.
Currently the TgaImporter and TgaImageConverter fail on images with row
length not aligned to 4, will fix that in followup commits.
Removed *Image::dataSize() and added *Image::dataProperties(), which
returns all properties separately for better introspection. This function
is now just an convenience alias to PixelStorage::dataProperties(), which
takes into account proper alignment and all other storage properties.
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).
I hoped to use them to store pixel pack/unpack configuration, but I have
better solution now.
The AbstractImage.h header is now removed along with the base classes,
I'm not expecting that anyone used these empty classes, so I'm not doing
anything to preserve backwards compatibility.
Added (now empty) AbstractCompressedImage class that inherits (now also
empty) AbstractImage class.
Added CompressedBufferImage, CompressedImage and CompressedImageView
classes, which are just copies of BufferImage, Image and ImageView
classes with format/type pair replaced by just format, but they
additionally need data size parameter.
Because of different use cases in Trade, the Trade::ImageData class now
handles both uncompressed and compressed format, checking the API
usage with runtime assertions. The reason for this is that a material
could just reference a image file by ID and we need to be able to
extract image of that ID without prior knowledge whether it is
compressed or not. Requiring prior knowledge of image format from the
user would make both the API and the usage far more complicated than
having Trade::ImageData which handles both cases.
On the other hand, the Image*/CompressedImage* distinction is done for
easier usage and type-safe APIs in all other cases.
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.
When pixel pack/unpack parameter support is done, this class will
contain only stuff that's common to both compressed and uncompressed
images. Currently that's nothing, so the class is empty.
Note the hilarious bug in both GCC and Clang: if you remove the `_dummy`
member, both of them start complaining about weird completely unrelated
stuff.
`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.
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.
To have BufferImage::buffer().data() consistent with Image::data()
(default is unsigned char data type, but it is possible to reinterpret
the data). Saves some ugly code:
Image2D image(ColorFormat::RGB, ColorType::UnsignedByte, ...);
Color3ub a = reinterpret_cast<Color3ub*>(image.data())[0]; // before
Color3ub b = image.data<Color3ub>()[0]; // after
The conversion is done implicitly, thus this seemingly innocent code
would be allowed:
ImageReference2D reference = Image2D(...);
foo(reference.data()); // crash on access, data already deleted
Advantages:
* The enums were large (600-800 lines) and they polluted the header,
now they are in separate files (except for BufferTexture, which has
the enum small enough to be left in the same file).
* Image classes now don't need to include OpenGL headers, as they were
needed only for the enum values. With advantage of C++11's forward
enum declarations there is no need to include the enum headers
anywhere in implementation, only when particular values are needed.
* The values are now less verbose:
AbstractTexture::InternalFormat::RGB8 // before
TextureFormat::RGB8 // now
* Resolved another "trivial choice" problem (thanks @JanDupal for
introducing this term to me): how to specify the format if there are
ten ways to do it (some being massively confusing):
Image2D::Format f = AbstractImage::Format::RGB; // too long...
Image2D::Format f = Image3D::Format::RGBA; // why 3D? this works?
Image2D::Format f = BufferImage1D::Format::RGBA; // wat?
It is even worse (and more verbose) with textures:
Texture2D::InternalFormat f =
CubeMapTextureArray::InternalFormat::RGB8; // this is allowed?
To have consistent naming this change was done also with
BufferTexture::InternalFormat (now BufferTextureFormat), although there
were no trivial choice issues and the enum isn't too large. But at least
it is now less typing.
* They are now deinlined into source files, as most of the classes have
either heavy members (std::vector) or virtual methods.
* All of them are explicit now (that should be already done, don't know
why not).
* Passing huge classes by value and using move constructors to avoid
unnecessary copying.
