It's mostly a C API for bullet that interfaces nicely with blender.
It could act as a generic interface for rigid body simulations but right
now it's very specific to bullet.
TODO: Fix building without bullet.
Part of GSoC 2010 and 2012.
Authors: Joshua Leung (aligorith), Sergej Reich (sergof)
Note: this doesn't work yet for everything with latest stable bullet (2.81), need to look into why and likely apply some patches upstream.
However I managed to link blender by disabling some features, likely it can be made to work without too much trouble.
RangeTree is a simple C++ tree set for storing non-overlapping scalar
ranges. Original source from:
https://github.com/nicholasbishop/RangeTree
Also update the build systems to include RangeTree.
This commit adds a small and simplistic C wrapper around boost's locale library as intern/locale, and heavily simplifies/reduces Blender's own i18n code (under blenfont/ dir). And it adds back UI translation on windows' official builds (with msvc)!
Note to platform maintainers: iconv and gettext (libintl) can now be removed from precompiled libs (not gettext binaries, under windows, of course ;) ).
Note to MinGW32/64 users: boost_locale lib has not yet been uploaded for those build env, please disable WITH_INTERNATIONAL for now (hopefully will be fixed very soon, have contacted psy-fy).

This commit also includes a fix of a bug identified during the merge and committed in revision 51853.
Thanks Thomas (dingto) for the timely fix!
* Moved kernel/osl/nodes to kernel/shaders
* Renamed standard attributes to use geom:, particle:, object: prefixes
* Update stdosl.h to properly reflect the closures we support
* Fix the wrong stdosl.h being used for building shaders
* Add geom:numpolyvertices, geom:trianglevertices, geom:polyvertices attributes

Also addressed code inconsistency due to changes in the trunk revision 50628 (color
management with OCIO) and 50806 (UV project material). OCIO-related changes are marked
OCIO_TODO as in some other files modified in revision 50628.
Replace old color pipeline which was supporting linear/sRGB color spaces
only with OpenColorIO-based pipeline.
This introduces two configurable color spaces:
- Input color space for images and movie clips. This space is used to convert
images/movies from color space in which file is saved to Blender's linear
space (for float images, byte images are not internally converted, only input
space is stored for such images and used later).
This setting could be found in image/clip data block settings.
- Display color space which defines space in which particular display is working.
This settings could be found in scene's Color Management panel.
When render result is being displayed on the screen, apart from converting image
to display space, some additional conversions could happen.
This conversions are:
- View, which defines tone curve applying before display transformation.
These are different ways to view the image on the same display device.
For example it could be used to emulate film view on sRGB display.
- Exposure affects on image exposure before tone map is applied.
- Gamma is post-display gamma correction, could be used to match particular
display gamma.
- RGB curves are user-defined curves which are applying before display
transformation, could be used for different purposes.
All this settings by default are only applying on render result and does not
affect on other images. If some particular image needs to be affected by this
transformation, "View as Render" setting of image data block should be set to
truth. Movie clips are always affected by all display transformations.
This commit also introduces configurable color space in which sequencer is
working. This setting could be found in scene's Color Management panel and
it should be used if such stuff as grading needs to be done in color space
different from sRGB (i.e. when Film view on sRGB display is use, using VD16
space as sequencer's internal space would make grading working in space
which is close to the space using for display).
Some technical notes:
- Image buffer's float buffer is now always in linear space, even if it was
created from 16bit byte images.
- Space of byte buffer is stored in image buffer's rect_colorspace property.
- Profile of image buffer was removed since it's not longer meaningful.
- OpenGL and GLSL is supposed to always work in sRGB space. It is possible
to support other spaces, but it's quite large project which isn't so
much important.
- Legacy Color Management option disabled is emulated by using None display.
It could have some regressions, but there's no clear way to avoid them.
- If OpenColorIO is disabled on build time, it should make blender behaving
in the same way as previous release with color management enabled.

Thanks to Xavier Thomas, Lukas Toene for initial work on OpenColorIO
integration and to Brecht van Lommel for some further development and code/
usecase review!
Carve proved it's a way to go, so the time have came to get rid of old
boolean operation module which isn't used anymore.
Still kept BOP interface but move it to BSP module. At some point it
could be cleaned up further (like perhaps removed extra abstraction
level or so) but would be nice to combine such a refactor with making
BSP aware of NGons.
Tested on linux using both cmake and scons, possible regressions on
windows/osx. Would check windoes build just after commit.
Currently only put sources of Ceres library into extern/libmv/third_party and
setup CMake and SCons building systems.
Integration details:
- Even CMake build files are not re-used from Ceres's trunk: they're using some
automatic stuff detection like glog, pthreads, protobuf and so and it's not
so clear how to re-use that files without modifications.
And IMO it's easier if build files are getting re-generated automatically to
match Blender-specific setup rather than keeping changes made locally in
Blender in sync when re-bundling Ceres library. Especially in case when it's
already needed to support SCons build system.
- Integrated only actual sources, all tests were stripped. Probably it'll be nice
to have them, but they'll need clear integration with current module test stuff
in Blender.
- Suitesparse was disabled. It'll help a lot having it, but there are some difficulties
making cholmod working fine on windows. Would be added in future
- collections_port.cc was also stripped. It's not used by Ceres's upstream and
it gives compilation error (undefined uint32 -- looks like namespace issue).
- Currently all schur eliminators are included. Not sure if it makes sense,
also not sure if it makes sense having them switchable on and off -- IMO better
to have single configuration which works and does not require special tweaks
after everything was set up.
To bundle updated version of Ceres:
- Go to extern/libmv/third_party/ceres folder
- Run ./bundle.sh
This will checkout fresh Ceres snapshot of Windows branch (which is currently
most interesting from integration into Blender POV), apply all patches listed
in patches/series and copy needed files into Blender's working copy. This will
also re-generate CMake/SCons build rules.
If you'll need extra files from Ceres repository which are not present in
Blender, you'll need to copy them manually and then run ./mkfiles.sh from
extern/libmv/third_party/ceres folder which will update list of files used
by Blender.
Thanks to Leir Mierle and Sameer Agarwal (and all others who helped developing
Ceres) this library and thanks to Keir Mierle with help integrating it into Blender!
