There's now only 3 addressing modes: stack, constant, and member.
Self, class, and nil are now present respectively in the first 3 stack
slots. Global and class constants are moved to local constants when
compiling. Named globals is only present on editor to use on tool
singletons, so its use now emits a new instruction to copy the global to
the stack.
This allow us to further optimize the VM later by embedding the
addressing modes in the instructions themselves, which is better done
with less permutations.
- Use `Array[type]` for type-hints. e.g.:
`var array: Array[int] = [1, 2, 3]`
- Array literals are typed if their storage is typed (variable
asssignment of as argument in function all). Otherwise they are
untyped.
Happy new year to the wonderful Godot community!
2020 has been a tough year for most of us personally, but a good year for
Godot development nonetheless with a huge amount of work done towards Godot
4.0 and great improvements backported to the long-lived 3.2 branch.
We've had close to 400 contributors to engine code this year, authoring near
7,000 commit! (And that's only for the `master` branch and for the engine code,
there's a lot more when counting docs, demos and other first-party repos.)
Here's to a great year 2021 for all Godot users 🎆
Storing script references to pointer only in result.script_type could
lead to losing the last reference, causing further conversions from
Script* to Ref<Script> to fail.
Now result.script_type_ref is always set first, and then cleared in the
specific case of the script being the owner, to avoid cyclic reference
issues.
- ClassDoc added to GDScript and property reflection data were extracted
from parse tree
- GDScript comments are collected from tokenizer for documentation and
applied to the ClassDoc by the GDScript compiler
- private docs were excluded (name with underscore prefix and doesn't
have any doc comments)
- default values (of non exported vars), arguments are extraced from the
parser
- Integrated with GDScript 2.0 and new enums were added.
- merge conflicts fixed
- Use the new functions in Variant to determine the validity and resulting
type of operators.
- Split the operator function in codegen between binary and unary, since
the unary ones have now a special requirement of having the second
argument to be the NIL type when requesting info.
They are now called "utility functions" to avoid confusion with methods
of builtin types, and be consistent with the naming in Variant.
Core utility functions are now available in GDScript. The ones missing
in core are added specifically to GDScript as helpers for convenience.
Some functions were remove when there are better ways to do, reducing
redundancy and cleaning up the global scope.
- Replace the for loop temporaries by locals. They cause conflicts with
the stack when being popped, while locals are properly handled in the
scope.
- Change the interface for the codegen so the for loop list doesn't live
through the whole block if it's a temporary.
- Keep track of the actual amount of local variables in the stack. Using
the size of the map is misleading in cases where multiple locals have
the same name (which is allowed when there's no shadowing).
- Added a few debug checks for temporaries, to avoid them being wrongly
manipulated in the future. They should not live more than a line of
code.
- Rearrange some of compiler code to make sure the temporaries don't
live across blocks.
Sometimes to fix something you have to break it first.
This get GDScript mostly working with the new tokenizer and parser but
a lot of things isn't working yet. It compiles and it's usable, and that
should be enough for now.
Don't worry: other huge commits will come after this.
I couldn't find a tool that enforces it, so I went the manual route:
```
find -name "thirdparty" -prune \
-o -name "*.cpp" -o -name "*.h" -o -name "*.m" -o -name "*.mm" \
-o -name "*.glsl" > files
perl -0777 -pi -e 's/\n}\n([^#])/\n}\n\n\1/g' $(cat files)
misc/scripts/fix_style.sh -c
```
This adds a newline after all `}` on the first column, unless they
are followed by `#` (typically `#endif`). This leads to having lots
of places with two lines between function/class definitions, but
clang-format then fixes it as we enforce max one line of separation.
This doesn't fix potential occurrences of function definitions which
are indented (e.g. for a helper class defined in a .cpp), but it's
better than nothing. Also can't be made to run easily on CI/hooks so
we'll have to be careful with new code.
Part of #33027.
Which means that reduz' beloved style which we all became used to
will now be changed automatically to remove the first empty line.
This makes us lean closer to 1TBS (the one true brace style) instead
of hybridating it with some Allman-inspired spacing.
There's still the case of braces around single-statement blocks that
needs to be addressed (but clang-format can't help with that, but
clang-tidy may if we agree about it).
Part of #33027.
Part of #33027, also discussed in #29848.
Enforcing the use of brackets even on single line statements would be
preferred, but `clang-format` doesn't have this functionality yet.
For us, it practically only changes the fact that `A<A<int>>` is now
used instead of the C++03 compatible `A<A<int> >`.
Note: clang-format 10+ changed the `Standard` arguments to fully
specified `c++11`, `c++14`, etc. versions, but we can't use `c++17`
now if we want to preserve compatibility with clang-format 8 and 9.
`Cpp11` is still supported as deprecated alias for `Latest`.
EngineDebugger is the new interface to access the debugger.
It tries to be as agnostic as possible on the data that various
subsystems can expose.
It allows 2 types of interactions:
- Profilers:
A subsystem can register a profiler, assigning it a unique name.
That name can be used to activate the profiler or add data to it.
The registered profiler can be composed of up to 3 functions:
- Toggle: called when the profiler is activated/deactivated.
- Add: called whenever data is added to the debugger
(via `EngineDebugger::profiler_add_frame_data`)
- Tick: called every frame (during idle), receives frame times.
- Captures: (Only relevant in remote debugger for now)
A subsystem can register a capture, assigning it a unique name.
When receiving a message, the remote debugger will check if it starts
with `[prefix]:` and call the associated capture with name `prefix`.
Port MultiplayerAPI, Servers, Scripts, Visual, Performance to the new
profiler system.
Port SceneDebugger and RemoteDebugger to the new capture system.
The LocalDebugger also uses the new profiler system for scripts
profiling.
