This way it is possible to probe shading compatibility of a given node from
python, making things like versioning code much easier to perform.
it's only valid for shading nodes, for other nodes the property also exists
but reads as an empty enum.
To access this compatibilities:
node.shading_compatibility
This function allows the user to run specific code for each of the
rendered stereoscopic eyes in the Game Engine.
The initial use case is to set the camera projection matrix in
a scene.pre_draw callback function for each eye, to be used in VR
(Virtual Reality) installations.
Reviewed by Mitchell Stokes and Campbell Barton, thank you guys.
Sample Test Python Script:
"""
import bge
import bgl
import blf
def init():
"""init function - runs once"""
scene = bge.logic.getCurrentScene()
scene.post_draw.append(write)
def write():
"""write on screen - depending on the eye"""
width = bge.render.getWindowWidth()
height = bge.render.getWindowHeight()
# OpenGL setup
bgl.glMatrixMode(bgl.GL_PROJECTION)
bgl.glLoadIdentity()
bgl.gluOrtho2D(0, width, 0, height)
bgl.glMatrixMode(bgl.GL_MODELVIEW)
bgl.glLoadIdentity()
eye = bge.render.getStereoEye()
if eye == bge.render.LEFT_EYE:
blf.position(0, (width * 0.2), (height * 0.3), 0)
blf.size(0, 40, 72)
blf.draw(0, "Left")
else: # bge.render.RIGHT_EYE:
blf.position(0, (width * 0.7), (height * 0.3), 0)
blf.size(0, 40, 72)
blf.draw(0, "Right")

This way Cycles finally becomes feature-full on image projections
compared to Blender Internal and Gooseberry Project Team could
finally finish the movie.
* If a Background node is set to a black color or zero strength,
it now gets removed from the shader graph.
* In case the graph is empty (no background node), the kernel will skip
evaluating it and save some rendertime. This can help quite a bit in scenes,
where the majority of the image consists of a black background.
Example: http://www.pasteall.org/pic/show.php?id=82650
In this case the render is ~16% faster.

Refactored some code to be easier to read. Semantically the code is
identical.
- Some conditions were negated to be able to return/continue early,
rather than having the majority of the code inside an if-body.
- Conditions were simplified (!(a == b)) turned into (a != b);
repeated conditions calculated only once.
- Unnecessary variables and one unnecessary condition were
eliminated.

Currently, when joining two armatures, the drivers of the armatures being merged
in are lost. This commit introduces a new AnimData API function for merging
animation data into another AnimData block.
NOTE:
* For now, this only copies the drivers over. As a result, manual effort will
still be needed to go through and fix the drivers.
I am working on automating that process, but it's more important that the
drivers don't have to be created from scratch for now (since this is needed
for the Goosberry rigging work).
A development addon can be used now to enable the debug drawing, without
the need to add UI code for this in the release files.
The SimDebug feature should also get an overall build flag and use
function stubs unless enabled. That way any possibility of overhead in
releases is eliminated.
Please note that opennl is already modified (for double precision)
so re-integration is not really easy. Also, we'll eventually switch
to Eigen.
For until that let's just solve the condition in our bundled opennl.
These were used as UI buttons during development. If such parameters are
needed again later they should instead be added in the (now global)
SimDebugData and made accessible with a dev addon or so.
Too many contrib addons are in an unstable state making the test not so useful.
Thanks to Sergey initial patch: D1012, redid mostly - but outcome is the same.
Name each icon group from its define in Blender.
Simplifies searching for a given icon (in one way or the other), and could also be
useful one day in some scripting.
Also, removed/fixed more empty and stray groups...
Finally, found that we have several svg icons not linked to any defines, and one define
with no icon (dyntopo), would be nice to sort this one way or the other too.
Made sure each icon has its own, 'private' group.
Removed empty groups, and some stray paths and rects (among other benefits,
'make icons' do not generate anymore that half o dozen of empty icons one had to remove
by hand before committing ;) ).
Note: double checked, only five generated icons differ (on binary level) from before,
with no actual visual diff.
This way it doesn't have to be stored as DNA runtime pointers or passed
down as a function argument. Currently there is now no property or
button to enable debugging, this will be added again later.
Previously, if the active object was a child, "Show Active" only showed the
parent object. Now it also opens the tree to take children into account.
Patch D974 by @lichtwerk with some minor edits, reviewed by me.
Code in ccgdm_draw_attrib_vertex() was entirely the same as the top
portion of the code in cddm_draw_attrib_vertex(). Moved this code to a
new function, DM_draw_attrib_vertex().
ccgdm_draw_attrib_vertex() was removed in favor of calling
DM_draw_attrib_vertex(). cddm_draw_attrib_vertex() still does a couple
extra things, so it still exists but calls DM_draw_attrib_vertex().
In the interest of easy code review, no changes made to the code in
DM_draw_attrib_vertex() other than the new name and an added comment.

The paths for parents and children are generated using the same function
with a rather obscure test to distinguish them. Modifiers (clump, kink,
roughness) should not be applied to parents though.
Different interpolation methods in compositor could lead to 0.5 pixel offset in
final renders. This is because of some inconsistency in integer coordinates
which might mean pixel corner or pixel center.
Should be all fine now.
mode.
This was caused by variation of the number of keys on child hairs due
to shortening of hair curves based on euclidian distances. The other
kink modes also shorten hairs, but use the parametric distance instead,
which does not vary with deformation of hairs.
By default this now copies from one object's local space to another
object's local space (instead of the previous world space). This is
more useful when transferring particles between objects, because it
doesn't require moving objects on top of each other, as long as they
have similar shapes.
