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.
There will be numerous additions to this one so it made sense to make it
a static library instead of a header-only library. That also allows
CMake users to just link to Magnum::OpenGLTester instead of going
through the pain of a huge branching in order to find a correct
windowless application just to run their tests. It could have been done
even without the static library using a INTERFACE target, but that
wouldn't work on CMake < 3.0 (which, unfortunately, quite a few people
are still stuck with).
Unfortunately it's already heavily used elsewhere so I had to go through
the pain of deprecating the old implementation. The old implementation
was header-only so it can't be just typedef'd to the new one as there
would be linker failures. So the old header is just kept as it was, with
only the macros reduced.
Currently just does per-pixel comparison and calculates absolute delta,
failing the comparison if max/mean delta threshold is above specified
values. Useful enough for the case I have right now, might fail in other
case -- but still better than whatever else I was using before :)
To be more consistent with GLSL naming. Also, the original naming was
quite misleading, as normalize() is used in GLSL for something
completely different.
If building with deprecated APIs, the Functions.h header includes the
new Packing.h header and the {de,}normalize() functions are defined as
deprecated aliases to the new functions. This will be removed at some
point in the future.
