As per #36436, we now need C++17's guaranteed copy elision feature to
solve ambiguities in Variant.
Core developers discussed the idea to move from C++14 to C++17 as our
minimum required C++ standard, and all agreed. Note that this doesn't
mean that Godot is going to be written in "modern C++", but we'll use
modern features where they make sense to simplify our "C with classes"
codebase. Apart from new code written recently, most of the codebase
still has to be ported to use newer features where relevant.
Proper support for C++17 means that we need recent compiler versions:
- GCC 7+
- Clang 6+
- VS 2017 15.7+
Additionally, C++17's `std::shared_mutex` (conditionally used by
`vk_mem_alloc.h` when C++17 support is enabled) is only available in
macOS 10.12+, so we increase our minimum supported version.
`git diff-tree` used to fail on the `3.2` branch (and other non-master
branches) as Travis doesn't actually check that branch from the remote:
```
fatal: ambiguous argument '3.2': unknown revision or path not in the
working tree.
```
The exit code would still be 0 so we'd miss badly formatted commits
targeting stable branches.
We do it manually to ensure that it's going to work as we want it.
Due to the port to Vulkan and complete redesign of the rendering backend,
the `drivers/gles3` code is no longer usable in this state and is not
planned to be ported to the new architecture.
The GLES2 backend is kept (while still disabled and non-working) as it
will eventually be ported to serve as the low-end renderer for Godot 4.0.
Some GLES3 features might be selectively ported to the updated GLES2
backend if there's a need for them, and extensions we can use for that.
So long, OpenGL driver bugs!
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.
Travis CI upgraded their Xenial VMs to default to openjdk11, which
is not working properly for sdkmanager, so we can no longer accept
licenses for the SDK.
They don't really seem to care about providing a good alternative
for us from the few threads I read, so let's just force openjdk8
back.
The application module `app` serves double duties of providing the prebuilt Godot binaries ('android_debug.apk', 'android_release.apk') and the Godot custom build template ('android_source.zip').
Mime type definitions are usually named like the mime type they define,
i.e. x-godot-project in our case.
It was introduced with reverse DNS naming as that's what FlatHub favors,
so it will need to be renamed there.
It has been failing since a few days, apparently `sdkmanager --licenses`
is no longer sufficient to accept all licenses, the `platform-tools` install
triggers another license dialog. Now saying yes to all just in case.
Not sure why we switched from homebrew to scons-local anymore,
but pip should work just fine and is recommended by upstream.
Downloads of scons-local from SourceForge were quite iffy, so
this should help avoid CI errors due to not having downloaded
SCons successfully.
Setting Python's user binary PATH seems necessary on Travis/OSX
as per travis-ci/travis-ci#5030 (confirmed that 'scons' is not
in PATH without it).
