We already removed it from the online docs with #35132.
Currently it can only be "Built-In Types" (Variant types) or "Core"
(everything else), which is of limited use.
We might also want to consider dropping it from `ClassDB` altogether
in Godot 4.0.
This function is available to GDScript but not to GDNative. When exposed, it
allows building more ergonomic safe abstractions over the GDNative APIs, and
covers the use cases of the original PR.
Close#28478. Supersedes #28791.

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.
VarArg methods have the return type Object in the API json for GDNative. This
can cause undefined behavior in some language bindings due to lack of
documentation on VarArg methods' behavior.
This changes the MethodInfo of:
- CSharpScript::_new
- GDScript::_new
- PluginScript::_new
This was a regression in 3.1 and later from the new inspector, where
PROPERTY_HINT_SPRITE_FRAME was not fully re-implemented. It's meant to
be a normal PROPERTY_HINT_RANGE which also automatically increments its
value when keyed in the animation player.
To avoid code duplication, I made the frames properties use the actual
PROPERTY_HINT_RANGE and introduced a PROPERTY_USAGE_KEYING_INCREMENTS
usage flag instead.
Properly release added resource loader and save references. Otherwise PluginScript API
may cause "ObjectDB Instances still exist!" warnings and segmentation faults on exit.
That is, any library referred to in GDNative library resources, won't be copied to the export target path unless its path begins with `res://`.
The case use for this is a bit advanced: having a GDN library that will be deployed separately from the project; for instance, to a path in the system (like `/opt/...`).
Currently the GDN library editor doesn't allow to pick dynamic libraries outside the project, but that can be done by editing the `.gdnlib` file manually.
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.
The functionality is similar to how `doc_classes` are retrieved per module.
The build system will search for custom icons path defined per module via
`get_icons_path()` method in `config.py` or default icons path.
If such paths don't exist, only the editor's own icons will be built.
Most module icons were moved from editor/icons to respective modules.
- 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
ResourceFormatLoader and ResourceFormatSaver are meant to be overridden
to add support for different formats in ResourceLoader and ResourceSaver.
Those should be exposed as they can be overridden in plugins.
On the other hand, all predefined subclasses of those two base classes
are only meant to register support for new file and resource types, but
should not and cannot be used directly from script, so they should not
be exposed.
Also unexposed ResourceImporterOGGVorbis (and thus its base class
ResourceImporter) which are editor-only.
This is a new singleton where camera sources such as webcams or cameras on a mobile phone can register themselves with the Server.
Other parts of Godot can interact with this to obtain images from the camera as textures.
This work includes additions to the Visual Server to use this functionality to present the camera image in the background. This is specifically targetted at AR applications.
It's not necessary, but the vast majority of calls of error macros
do have an ending semicolon, so it's best to be consistent.
Most WARN_DEPRECATED calls did *not* have a semicolon, but there's
no reason for them to be treated differently.
A big refactor to the WebRTC module. API is now considered quite stable.
Highlights:
- Renamed `WebRTCPeer` to `WebRTCPeerConnection`.
- `WebRTCPeerConnection` no longer act as `PacketPeer`, it only handle the connection itself (a bit like `TCP_Server`)
- Added new `WebRTCDataChannel` class which inherits from `PacketPeer` to handle data transfer.
- Add `WebRTCPeerConnection.initialize` method to create a new connection with the desired configuration provided as dictionary ([see MDN docs](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/RTCPeerConnection/RTCPeerConnection#RTCConfiguration_dictionary)).
- Add `WebRTCPeerConnection.create_data_channel` method to create a data channel for the given connection. The connection must be in `STATE_NEW` as specified by the standard ([see MDN docs for options](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/RTCPeerConnection/createDataChannel#RTCDataChannelInit_dictionary)).
- Add a `data_channel_received` signal to `WebRTCPeerConnection` for in-band (not negotiated) channels.
- Renamed `WebRTCPeerConnection` `offer_created` signal to `session_description_created`.
- Renamed `WebRTCPeerConnection` `new_ice_candidate` signal to `ice_candidate_created`
binding_functions.size() and an instance's binding_data.size() can get out of sync. They sync up when an instance's bindings are requested. When binding functions are registered after creating an instance's bindings, the instance's bindings are out of sync until requested again. If they're never requested, they're never synced.
unregister_binding_functions indexes into binding_data, but only checks that its safe to index into binding_functions. When they're out of sync, indexing fails.
This revision checks that it's safe to index into binding_data.
Moved GDNative singletons discoverer from register_types to
GDNativeSingletonEditor.
Fix enable/disable switch in GDNativeLibrarySingletonEditor.
Separate `gdnative/singletons` and `gdnative/singletons_disabled`
project settings, keeping "on by default" behavior.
Store general properties in ConfigFile too when modifying them.
Additionally set config_file property as internal as it's not editable
from inspector. It also does not appear to get saved in a meaningful way
(saved as Object(ConfigFile, ...))
solves #26796
- ADD `String to_string()` method to Object which can be overriden by `String _to_string()` in scripts
- ADD `String to_string(r_valid)` method to ScriptInstance to allow langauges to control how scripted objects are converted to strings
- IMPLEMENT to_string for GDScriptInstance, VisualScriptInstance, and NativeScriptInstance
- ADD Documentation about `Object.to_string` and `Object._to_string`
- Changed `Variant::operator String` to use `obj->to_string()`
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).
When a singleton library was exposing NativeScript functionality,
the NativeScriptLanguage would attempt to terminate the library at
shutdown.
Since the GDNative module itself handles singleton libraries,
it closes all singleton libraries at shutdown as well. This double free
could cause a crash, since the library referenced would no longer be alive.
Recently, Dictionary::get() was introduced, which acts like a index
operator but allows the caller to specify a default value to return
instead of issuing an error.
This commit adds a new GDNative function that includes the default value.
Some used 'is_valid()' checks, others not. Validity is already checked in 'unref()',
and 'remove_resource_format_*()' has an ERR_FAIL condition on 'is_null()' already
(which shouldn't happen since we're only unregistering things that we previously
registered.
Also add missing GDCLASS statement in ResourceFormatLoaderVideoStreamGDNative,
missed in #20552 which was last amended before #19501 was merged.
By introducing an intermediate proxy class for the array subscript
operator for String and CharString we can control better when CowData
will actually CoW.
This should improve performance of String usage for most cases.
Interface and callback api added for Videodecoder support.
Should be able to construct any format videodecoder using
only the given interface.

The issue is that ResourceFormatLoaderText is a singleton. It was created in a faulty way in
ResourceFormatLoaderNativeScript::load
It was created on the stack, which caused the static singleton pointer to be overwritten. This
causes then segmentation faults if the singleton is used later on.
IMO singleton creation needs to made safer to avoid other similar issues in the future.
