==================================
Merging Carve library integration project into the trunk.
This commit switches Boolean modifier to another library which handles
mesh boolean operations in much stable and faster way, resolving old
well-known limitations of intern boolop library.
Carve is integrating as alternative interface for boolop library and
which makes it totally transparent for blender sources to switch between
old-fashioned boolop and new Carve backends.
Detailed changes in this commit:
- Integrated needed subset of Carve library sources into extern/
Added script for re-bundling it (currently works only if repo
was cloned by git-svn).
- Added BOP_CarveInterface for boolop library which can be used by
Boolean modifier.
- Carve backend is enabled by default, can be disabled by WITH_BF_CARVE
SCons option and WITH_CARVE CMake option.
- If Boost library is found in build environment it'll be used for
unordered collections. If Boost isn't found, it'll fallback to TR1
implementation for GCC compilers. Boost is obligatory if MSVC is used.
Tested on Linux 64bit and Windows 7 64bit.
NOTE: behavior of flat objects was changed. E.g. Plane-Sphere now gives
plane with circle hole, not plane with semisphere. Don't think
it's really issue because it's not actually defined behavior in
such situations and both of ways might be useful. Since it's
only known "regression" think it's OK to deal with it.

Special thanks to:
- Ken Hughes: author of original carve integration patch.
- Campbell Barton: help in project development, review tests.
- Tobias Sargeant: author of Carve library, help in resolving some
merge stoppers, bug fixing.
* Added option "WITH_BF_CYCLES_CUDA_THREADED_COMPILE" for the people who have much RAM (8 or more) and can compile several kernels at the same time. If enabled, it uses the general BF_NUMJOBS flag.
* The option is off per default.
* Compile all of cycles with -ffast-math again
* Add scons compilation of cuda binaries, tested on mac/linux.
* Add UI option for supported/experimental features, to make it
more clear what is supported, opencl/subdivision is experimental.
* Remove cycles xml exporter, was just for testing.
* Fix excessive fireflies in Velvet BSDF (patch by David).
* Disable some unused SSE code
* Remove RTTI disabling flags for now, this is giving some compile issues and
was only needed of OSL which we're not using yet.
===========================
Commiting camera tracking integration gsoc project into trunk.
This commit includes:
- Bundled version of libmv library (with some changes against official repo,
re-sync with libmv repo a bit later)
- New datatype ID called MovieClip which is optimized to work with movie
clips (both of movie files and image sequences) and doing camera/motion
tracking operations.
- New editor called Clip Editor which is currently used for motion/tracking
stuff only, but which can be easily extended to work with masks too.
This editor supports:
* Loading movie files/image sequences
* Build proxies with different size for loaded movie clip, also supports
building undistorted proxies to increase speed of playback in
undistorted mode.
* Manual lens distortion mode calibration using grid and grease pencil
* Supervised 2D tracking using two different algorithms KLT and SAD.
* Basic algorithm for feature detection
* Camera motion solving. scene orientation
- New constraints to "link" scene objects with solved motions from clip:
* Follow Track (make object follow 2D motion of track with given name
or parent object to reconstructed 3D position of track)
* Camera Solver to make camera moving in the same way as reconstructed camera
This commit NOT includes changes from tomato branch:
- New nodes (they'll be commited as separated patch)
- Automatic image offset guessing for image input node and image editor
(need to do more tests and gather more feedback)
- Code cleanup in libmv-capi. It's not so critical cleanup, just increasing
readability and understanadability of code. Better to make this chaneg when
Keir will finish his current patch.
More details about this project can be found on this page:
http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/User:Nazg-gul/GSoC-2011
Further development of small features would be done in trunk, bigger/experimental
features would first be implemented in tomato branch.
* Fluid compilation: Inverse the compile flag from DISABLE_ELBEEM to WITH_MOD_FLUID for consistency. (scons/cmake)
* Use WITH_BF_FLUID in your user config (scons)
* Add support for scons to disable build with Decimate and Boolean modifier.
(WITH_BF_DECIMATE and WITH_BF_BOOLEAN)
- define __BIG_ENDIAN__ or __LITTLE_ENDIAN__ with cmake & scons.
- ENDIAN_ORDER is now a define rather than a global short.
- replace checks like this with single ifdef: #if defined(__sgi) || defined (__sparc) || defined (__sparc__) || defined (__PPC__) || defined (__ppc__) || defined (__hppa__) || defined (__BIG_ENDIAN__)
- remove BKE_endian.h which isn't used
Change OURPLATFORM from "linux<major_version>" to simple "linux".
Since new policy for linux kernel versions that major version in
platform doesn't make much sense for building rules so the same
rules could be used for both of linux2 and linux3 now/
Tested on both of linux2 and linux3 systems.
to conficuration variable BF_FFMPEG_DDL.
This would allow to use different FFmpeg in buildbot.
- Added some 3DMOUSE variables to list of command line options.
Now 3dmouse related-settings can be set from command line.
python scons\scons.py BF_BITNESS=32
python scons\scons.py BF_BITNESS=64
So from now on for Windows you don't have to run a specific win32 or win64 Python version
to get the Blender version you want. If you omit the BF_BITNESS flag the bitness as per
Python version will be used as before.
Note that this is an argument, so works *only* on the command-line, not in your user-config.py
when installing to a folder that already existed. Now the uninstaller
will remove only the files it has installed, and leave any other files
in the installation directory intact.
* Windows installer not working for non-admin users and multiple users
* Addon scripts not installing next to user configuration
* Portable install not being taken into account in all places
The main problem was the windows installer was installing system scripts in
AppData next to the user configuration directory, which is not shared between
users. Now these are installed in ProgramFiles, and only addon scripts added
by the users go to AppData.
On all platforms, addon scripts were sometimes getting installed between
system scripts, because the scripts folder in the executable directory was
given precedence over the user configuration folder, that is no longer done
now. So addons now behave like user configuration, they are preserved even
if you download a newer build of the same blender version.
If you have an installation of 2.57 on windows, the addon install location
will not change until we do the version bump to 2.58, to avoid conflicts with
the existing the installed 2.57 version.
The old behavior of giving precedence to the local folder was done to support
portable install, where all configuration is written to the local folder. This
is now implemented differently: if and only if a "config" folder exists in the
local folder, portable install will be assumed, and files will only be written
to that local folder.
discussed with Janne, Ton, Nathan and we agreed this kind of change at least needs discussion with module owners.
Its also too close to release to be making these kinds of changes.
commands used:
# reverse merge
svn merge -r36073:36072 .
# for some reason this gave a lot of property changes
svn revert `svn st | grep "^ M" | awk '{print $2}'`
# reverse merging didn't work here, removing while dir.
svn rm extern/eltopo/
# manually fixed conflict in
# ./source/blenderplayer/CMakeLists.txt
#
# also manually removed 2 lines from
# ./CMakeLists.txt
Plugged the eltopo library into the cloth solver.
I was playing with it earlier, and it's so easy to
use I decided to quickly put it in (trunk's) cloth.
See http://www.cs.ubc.ca/labs/imager/tr/2009/eltopo/eltopo.html
. The authors are on the bleeding edge of continuous collision
detection (one of them did ILM's cloth sim).
I
don't really have to time to plug it into softbody, particles,
bullet, fluid, etc, but doing so would be pretty straightforward.
I'll leave that up to someone else.
To use, turn on USE_ELTOPO (in cmake) or WITH_BF_ELTOPO in scons.
- Remove packed to buildbot_archive.zip archive file to keep scons install
directory as clean as possible (if i understood correct, this file isn't
actually needed in the future, so we could remove it just after packing rather
than cleaning install directory before packing as it's done for cmake)
- No need in scripts installation for linux slaves when preparing archive
- Use the same config as we're using for release builds
- Added stipping (maybe it should be generalized)
- Not software gl packing, bot would be easy to add
Note, that you should have special environment to create
proper linux builts (which would work for everybody)
Made changed to linux2-config and freebsd*-config. Windows/MacOS are kept
unchanged.
I'm not sure which flags should be used for freebsd systems, so flags for
them also kept empty. Maintainers of this platform, please check which
flags should be used and make changes to rules.
this also means we can have a version string like '2.56a-beta' without using buildinfo.
release/VERSION was only used by scons, NSIS installer.
Possibly helps to fix bug [#26062] too.
