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(...);
I wanted to preserve the parameter-less constructor of tests, but WINAPI
requires fairly ugly entagled set of functions, passing HWND around,
which required storing it in a global var and hoping it is properly
initialized when querying it for it to be passed to application
constructor.
When this was done, it was now fairly easy to support passing also
argv/argc to application constructor, which in the future will enable
selective disabling of extensions for even better test coverage.
This however needed slightly different main() function and thus we now
have MAGNUM_GL_TEST_MAIN() instead of CORRADE_TEST_MAIN(). Using the
latter will result in an assert inside std::optional.
This was a leftover from some not-well-thought-out design decision. The
function is now used exclusively for binding for draw, as all
framebuffer reading functions (blit(), read()) are doing the read
binding internally. Moreover it required the user to be extra careful on
ES2, because in many cases there are no separate binding points for
reading and drawing.
The function is now parameter-less and always bind the framebuffer for
drawing. The logic for internal binding was also simplified and on ES2
there are separate implementations for single/separate binding points.
For *Framebuffer::checkStatus() the documentation was updated to explain
the meaning of the parameter on ES2 implementation. Also removed the
need for FramebufferTarget::ReadDraw binding, as it was rather
confusing.
Old *Framebuffer::bind(FramebufferTarget) is now just an alias to the
parameter-less function, ignoring the parameter. Along with
FramebufferTarget::ReadDraw it is marked as deprecated and will be
removed in some future release.
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;
// ...
};
With DSA there is slightly different (but completely understandable)
usage -- it's needed to specify the target upon creation, not deferring
it to begin() call. Timestamp queries (TimeQuery::timestamp()) must now
also be created with new TimeQuery::Target::Timestamp target.
The old way (parameterless constructor and begin(Target)) is still
supported, but is marked as deprecated and will be removed in future
release. Also, using the old way the DSA function is simply not used.
Also fixed SampleQuery test to account for cases where the driver might
not support ARB_occlusion_query2.
Only one value from these two was used in the end, wasting precious
bytes. Also these two values were used to differentiate between indexed
and non-indexed mesh (instead of relying on actual index buffer being
bound), which was very confusing. This approach looks more clean. The
MeshView class is not yet updated, as the change would expose some
features that aren't possible in current implementation (base vertex
specification).
Merged Mesh::setVertexCount() and Mesh::setIndexCount() into one
Mesh::setCount(), the two original functions are now guarded aliases to
the new one, are marked as deprecated and will be removed in future
release, similarly for the getters.
In particular, if the mesh is indexed, setVertexCount() does nothing and
vertexCount() returns 0. The setIndexCount() and indexCount() do and
return the same regardless of whether the mesh is indexed or not.
Previously the API didn't encourage the user to set up and activate
shader before drawing the meshes, leading to unintuitive behavior:
// Can I just call draw() or do I have to fully understand the
// meaning of the universe before?
mesh.draw();
Now the draw() needs the shader passed explicitly as parameter, which
should hint that the shader must be set up somehow:
// Right, so this needs just a shader and that's all. Expecting this
// I fortunately *did* configure all the uniforms before this call.
mesh.draw(shader);
It is also possible to pass the shader as rvalue, in case the drawing is
just a one-off thing and is already fully configured.
mesh.draw(MyShader{});
As usual, the original API is kept, is marked as deprecated and will be
removed in some future release.
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.
