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.
Third-party platforms (e.g. console ports) need to be able to
disable JIT support in the regex module too, so it can't be
hardcoded in the module SCsub. This is cleaner this way anyway.
Fixes#19316.
It's the recommended way to set those, and is more portable
(automatically prepends -D for GCC/Clang and /D for MSVC).
We still use CPPFLAGS for some pre-processor flags which are not
defines.
- Document a few more properties and methods
- Add more information to many classes
- Fix lots of typos and gramar mistakes
- Use [code] tags for parameters consistently
- Use [b] and [i] tags consistently
- Put "Warning:" and "Note:" on their own line to be more visible,
and make them always bold
- Tweak formatting in code examples to be more readable
- Use double quotes consistently
- Add more links to third-party technologies
Include paths are processed from left to right, so we use Prepend to
ensure that paths to bundled thirdparty files will have precedence over
system paths (e.g. `/usr/include` should have lowest priority).
This allows more consistency in the manner we include core headers,
where previously there would be a mix of absolute, relative and
include path-dependent includes.
This commit makes operator[] on Vector const and adds a write proxy to it. From
now on writes to Vectors need to happen through the .write proxy. So for
instance:
Vector<int> vec;
vec.push_back(10);
std::cout << vec[0] << std::endl;
vec.write[0] = 20;
Failing to use the .write proxy will cause a compilation error.
In addition COWable datatypes can now embed a CowData pointer to their data.
This means that String, CharString, and VMap no longer use or derive from
Vector.
_ALWAYS_INLINE_ and _FORCE_INLINE_ are now equivalent for debug and non-debug
builds. This is a lot faster for Vector in the editor and while running tests.
The reason why this difference used to exist is because force-inlined methods
used to give a bad debugging experience. After extensive testing with modern
compilers this is no longer the case.

Notable potentially breaking changes:
- PROPERTY_USAGE_NOEDITOR is now PROPERTY_USAGE_STORAGE | PROPERTY_USAGE_NETWORK, without PROPERTY_USAGE_INTERNAL
- Some properties were renamed, and sometimes even shadowed by new ones
- New getter methods (some virtual) were added
The rst-generator gives you now a hint what's going on:
Bad reference: 'method.RegEx.search_all' in file: ../modules/regex/doc_classes/RegExMatch.xml
grep 'method.RegEx.search_all' ../modules/regex/doc_classes/RegExMatch.xml
Contains the results of a single regex match returned by [method RegEx.search]
and [method.RegEx.search_all]. It can be used to find the position and range of the match
and its capturing groups, and it can extract its sub-string for you.
The pattern and replacement matching behaviour has been changed purely
due to the nature of switching to a standards-compliant library.
One mistake in the previous behaviour was that named groups didn't have
a number. This has been corrected.
As names are actually just an alias of numbered groups,
RegExMatch::get_name_dict() is now get_names() and is a dict
referring to the group number it represents.
Duplicate names are enabled and the with the first matching instance
used.
Due the lack of a suitable equivalent in PCRE2, RegExMatch::expand() was
removed.
