Instead make use of the ArrayView STL compatibility. To avoid breaking
almost all existing code the Corrade/Containers/ArrayViewStl.h header is
included implicitly when MAGNUM_BUILD_DEPRECATED is defined, but this
will get removed in some future release to speed up the compilation.
Deprecated for 2018.04, it's been almost a year since. Whoever is using
Magnum regularly updated already, and who not can always upgrade
gradually (2018.02, 2018.04, 2018.10, 2019.01 etc.).
Calling map<void>() was trying to instantiate ArrayView<void> through
arrayCast<void>(), which is not possible (void has no size etc etc.).
Casting the returned pointer directly instead. Thanks to @AndySomogyi
for pointing this out.
At the moment just the GL library itself w/o the tests, and without
backwards compatibility aliases. The following types were left in the
root namespace, despite being in the GL/ directory, as they will get
moved back soon:
* Image, CompressedImage and their dimensional typedefs
* ImageView, CompressedImageView and their dimensional typedefs
* PixelStorage
Not PixelFormat etc., that one will stay in the GL namespace and a
completely new PixelFormat enum will be provided in the root namespace.
Minimal updates (just the include guards) so Git is hopefully able to
detect the rename and track the history properly.
Everything except Magnum::GL doesn't compile now.
They were utterly confusing, as it was completely unclear what the units
of offset/size parameters are, whether byte sizes or element counts (and
moreover, some of these APIs had offset in bytes and size in count and
some not). All of those are deprecated now, with hinting the user to
convert to non-templated APIs in combination with
Containers::arrayCast(). Moreover, the non-templated range map()
function doesn't return just void* anymore, but a properly sized
ArrayView<char>. The old map() (which doesn't take range) still returns
just a pointer (but also a char* instead of void* for consistency), as
getting size there is non-trivial (and impossible on old ES/WebGL).
The switch to ArrayView might be a source breaking change, but I
silently hope that everyone was just using the templated functions
anyway (that are deprecated now). So, in short, this was before:
T* a = buf.map<T>(0, size_in_what_i_have_no_idea);
And this is now, with proper size safety and clear API:
ArrayView<T> a = Containers::arrayCast<T>(buf.map(0, size_in_bytes);
The deprecated APIs will be removed at some point in the future, as
usual.
Followup to previous commit -- links to opengl.org are now redirected to
khronos.org and the extension links have the same format for both GL and
GLES. That allows me to remove some of the Doxygen aliases and use just
a single set of the functions for both GL and GLES.
Do I have to repeat it? Oh and also it produces warnings ONLY if given
function is used, so I guess the user code has *a lot* more warnings of
this kind.
Similarly to what's now done with NoInit tags for Containers::Array and
all math types such as Vector, there's now NoCreate tag for creating
wrappers without actually creating the underlying OpenGL object. The
instance is then equivalent to moved-from state. Useful to avoid
needless creation/deletion of OpenGL object in case you would overwrite
the instance later anyway:
Mesh mesh{NoCreate};
std::unique_ptr<Buffer> indices, vertices;
std::tie(mesh, indices, vertices) = MeshTools:compile(...);
