Since the main speed advantage of the function is that it hashes a
*whole* vertex together instead of going through the attribute arrays
one by one, it can't really operate on whatever funny interleaved layout
it was given as there may be padding bytes with random content, breaking
the deduplication.
Since checking that a layout is really padding-less is rather complex,
the repacking is now performed always. This also means the && overload
makes no sense anymore and thus it was dropped.
This makes the test added in the previous commit not assert anymore, and
behave the same as the padding-less case.
Leads to an assertion inside StridedArrayView constructor, because I
just pass through the original attribute offsets/strides even though
interleavedMutableData() gives me a much smaller stride.
Moreover, because I just perform the deduplication on the original
vertex data *including* all random padding, the duplicate removal won't
always be able to find all duplicates. So test that case here as well --
turns out we just have to repack the data completely, after all.
This took me quite a while to realize -- not always it's desirable to
have the original layout unconditionally preserved, especially if for
example filtering a MeshData to just a subset of attributes.
It was already done in removeDuplicatesFuzzy(), so just make it
consistent with the rest (shorter message, listing also the offending
attribute index).
Haha, I even had a TODO here. An exception in this case is when the mesh
is already interleaved -- then the layout is kept intact and thus it's
not needed to know what vertex format sizes to repack.
And doing all the automagic of unpacking packed types, converting
positions *and* normals/tangents/bitangents, and also an overload for
transforming texture coordinates.
Such a simple thing and yet so complex and nasty to test.
Similar to sceneconverter's --profile option, measuring import and
conversion time. This also means that sceneconverter's --profile now
includes image import time, which wasn't done before.
Because this tool is often useful to debug broken importers, it's not
wise to parse scenes even if just --info-materials was specified to
gather material reference count. The new behavior is that reference
count will be listed only if both the referer and referee data type info
is specified.
This also allowed me to remove the redundant `references` field from
Info structures -- now just the arrays are used, and if the array is
empty, then it covers both the case when refcounts were not calculated
(in which case the displayed info would be wrong) and when there's no
refered data at all (in which case the reference count info would be
superfluous).
There was also an issue that texture reference count was not calculated
when --info-materials was not set, this is now the desired behavior
(except that it's not printing the invalid zero count at all).
Because a texture can be referenced by multiple attributes in a single
materials, the reference count might be higher than actual material
count, which would be confusing. Since this is mainly for informational
purposes (finding unreferenced data in a file), it doesn't make sense to
spend time working on a proper material counter right now.
Now it's a field and its corresponding object mapping, instead of
field and "objects":
- Goes better with the concept that there's not really any materialized
"object" anywhere, just fields mapped to them.
- No more weird singular/plural difference between field() and
objects(), it's field() and mapping() now.
- The objectCount() that actually wasn't really object count is now a
mappingBound(), an upper bound for object IDs contained in the object
mapping views. Which is quite self-explanatory without having to
mention every time that the range may be sparse.
Because that way one can query a field with *AsArray() and iterate
through it in a single expression. This also resolves the pending issue
where it was more than annoying to fetch object mapping for TRS fields
when only a subset of the fields is available.
Was waiting for this to happen, as going through all the objects would
have been too messy. Plugins implemented using the legacy API will
now only show the parent field in SceneData, but since those eventually
get all ported, that's fine.
Reason is that Assimp custom material attribute names are also prefixed
with $ and other weird characters, which could lead to them appearing
before $LayerName, causing a layer to falsely appear unnamed. A space,
instead, is before all printable characters so it's guaranteed to be
always first.
Some things you just don't realize at first. Fortunately the binary
layout isn't pinned yet for the serialization format so this change is
mostly fine.
Memory-maps the file and uses openMemory() instead of openFile(). For
efficient data formats (such as glTF) can avoid reading the whole blob
if only the metadata or a part of the file is needed (for example the
peak usage for --info-materials with the Buggy.glb example model went
from 8.5 MB to 991 kB, as it reads just the JSON at the start and never
even pages in the buffer blobs at the end).
This currently only works for standalone files, files that reference
external images etc. would need to have file callbacks implemented. And
it's Sunday and I'm lazy.
Because it was getting annoying to scroll through the output, especially
with shitty files that duplicate materials etc. The --info is now a
shortcut for specifying all other --info options together.
Minor but very important convenience feature, especially useful when
dealing with command-line apps. This now works:
magnum-imageconverter a.png a.jpg -c jpegQuality=0.75
The AnyImageConverter gets the jpegQuality option and then
automatically propagates it to the concrete plugin (which is either
JpegImageConverter or StbImageConverter), possibly warning in case the
target plugin doesn't recognize given option (i.e., doesn't list it in
its default configuration). Previously the user had to always specify a
concrete converter implementation using -C, which was rather annoying
and nonintuitive.
It should be input first, output second, like with all other APIs. I
remember I was trying something else here, but that didn't really make
sense in the end. Also took that opportunity to get rid of one
std::string.
The original signature is a deprecated alias to the new one and will be
removed in a future release.
There will be Flag::FlipY for images at some point, enabled by default
for compatibility with existing GL code, and so it makes sense to start
discouraging setFlags() as early as possible to avoid people resetting
the default by accident.
Also update the imageconverter, sceneconverter and shaderconverter utils
to use these instead of setFlags().
