- Renames PackedIntArray to PackedInt32Array.
- Renames PackedFloatArray to PackedFloat32Array.
- Adds PackedInt64Array and PackedFloat64Array.
- Renames Variant::REAL to Variant::FLOAT for consistency.
Packed arrays are for storing large amount of data and creating stuff like
meshes, buffers. textures, etc. Forcing them to be 64 is a huge waste of
memory. That said, many users requested the ability to have 64 bits packed
arrays for their games, so this is just an optional added type.
For Variant, the float datatype is always 64 bits, and exposed as `float`.
We still have `real_t` which is the datatype that can change from 32 to 64
bits depending on a compile flag (not entirely working right now, but that's
the idea). It affects math related datatypes and code only.
Neither Variant nor PackedArray make use of real_t, which is only intended
for math precision, so the term is removed from there to keep only float.
Arrays inside of Variant are unique and use reference counting.
When you assign a variant containing a packed array to another, or
when you call non const functions to arrays, this will work even
if the array is inside a dictionary, so they will from now pass
as reference.
The difference with regular variant arrays is that, once passed
to a function in the C++ API, they are no longer shared. This is
required for security and thread safety, as those arrays are
mainly used to pass data back and forth even between threads.
WARNING: Requires C++17 'guaranteed copy elision' to fix ambiguous
operator problems in Variant.
This was added for this commit (and future C++17 uses) in #36457.
Happy new year to the wonderful Godot community!
We're starting a new decade with a well-established, non-profit, free
and open source game engine, and tons of further improvements in the
pipeline from hundreds of contributors.
Godot will keep getting better, and we're looking forward to all the
games that the community will keep developing and releasing with it.
Similarly to `Vector2` and `Rect2` transforms in 2D and Vector3, Plane,
and AABB in 3D. PoolVector2Array and PoolVector3Array were the only
missing Variant types in both Transform2D and Transform respectively.
Condensed some if and ERR statements. Added dots to end of error messages
Couldn't figure out EXPLAINC. These files gave me trouble: core/error_macros.h, core/io/file_access_buffered_fa.h (where is it?),
core/os/memory.cpp,
drivers/png/png_driver_common.cpp,
drivers/xaudio2/audio_driver_xaudio2.cpp (where is it?)
These silently fail, so they should be removed. I accidentally added most of these last year, trying to make everything else consistent with Quat, sorry!
Also, a few tiny nitpicking changes are included, like whitespace and misspellings.
For clarity, assign-to-release idiom for PoolVector::Read/Write
replaced with a function call.
Existing uses replaced (or removed if already handled by scope)
Godot core needs MD5/SHA256/AES/Base64 which used to be provided by
separate libraries.
Since we bundle mbedtls in most cases, and we can easily only include
the needed sources if we so desire, let's use it.
To simplify library changes in the future, and better isolate header
dependencies all functions have been wrapped around inside a class in
`core/math/crypto_base.h`.
If the mbedtls module is disabled, we only bundle the needed source
files independently of the `builtin_mbedtls` option.
If the module is enabled, the `builtin_mbedtls` option works as usual.
Also remove some unused headers from StreamPeerMbedTLS which were
causing build issues.
Improved documentation of rsplit Method for String class.
Removed "divisor" (i will also change variants_call.cpp) and added "delimiter" in its place. Also moved the example at the bottom of the description.
