Adds an optional (default false) compile option to enable comparing
`Ref` to `nullptr` to ensure correct use, as well as future expandsion
for more general dev checks (enabled with `dev_mode`)
This is useful for custom tagging of objects with properties (for example in Blender) and having this available in the editor for scripting.
- Adds import logic to propagate the parsed GLTF extras all the way to the resulting Node->meta
- Adds export logic to save Godot Object meta into GLTF extras
- Supports `nodes`, `meshes` and `materials` (in GLTF sense of the words)
Benefits:
- Simpler code. The main load function is renamed so it's apparent that it's not just a thread entry point anymore.
- Cache and thread modes of the original task are honored. A beautiful consequence of this is that, unlike formerly, re-issued loads can use the resource cache, which makes this mechanism much more performant.
- The newly added getter for caller task id in WorkerThreadPool allows to remove the custom tracking of that in ResourceLoader.
- The check to replace a cached resource and the replacement itself happen atomically. That fixes deadlock prevention leading to multiple resource instances of the same one on disk. As a side effect, it also makes the regular check for replace load mode more robust.
Changes to reduce the latency between changing node selection in the editor and seeing the new node reflected in the Inspector tab
- Use Vector instead of List for ThemeOwner::get_theme_type_dependencies and related functions
- Use Vector instead of List for ThemeContext::themes, set_themes(), and get_themes()
- Add ClassDB:get_inheritance_chain_nocheck to get all parent/ancestor classes at once, to avoid repeated ClassDB locking overhead
- Update BIND_THEME_ITEM macros and ThemeDB::update_class_instance_items to use provided StringNames for call to ThemeItemSetter, instead of creating a new StringName in each call
These changes reduce the time taken by EditorInspector::update_tree by around 30-35%
ResourceLoader:
- Fix invalid tokens being returned.
- Remove no longer written `ThreadLoadTask::dependent_path` and the code reading from it.
- Clear deadlock hazard by keeping the mutex unlocked during userland polling.
WorkerThreadPool:
- Include thread call queue override in the thread state reset set, which allows to simplify the code that handled that (imperfectly) in the ResourceLoader.
- Handle the mutex type correctly on entering an allowance zone.
CommandQueueMT:
- Handle the additional possibility of command buffer reallocation that mutex unlock allowance introduces.
