As many open source projects have started doing it, we're removing the
current year from the copyright notice, so that we don't need to bump
it every year.
It seems like only the first year of publication is technically
relevant for copyright notices, and even that seems to be something
that many companies stopped listing altogether (in a version controlled
codebase, the commits are a much better source of date of publication
than a hardcoded copyright statement).
We also now list Godot Engine contributors first as we're collectively
the current maintainers of the project, and we clarify that the
"exclusive" copyright of the co-founders covers the timespan before
opensourcing (their further contributions are included as part of Godot
Engine contributors).
Also fixed "cf." Frenchism - it's meant as "refer to / see".
Backported from #70885.
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 🎆
(cherry picked from commit b5334d14f7)
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.
(cherry picked from commit 87d73faa66)
Modify usage of types so that the `Ref` created from `base_type.script_type` doesn't involve converting first to `Variant`, which will use the constructor for `Object *`, as if the argument wasn't a `Reference`, and therefore will convert back to null.
Pass the calculated index from the stack and use the same to get and set
the value. This avoids a function with side effects being evaluated
twice when using indexing in an assignment with operation statement
(e.g. a[function()] += 1).
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.
Before this patch, assert() only took the condition to assert on:
assert(item_data)
Now, it can optionally take a string that will be printed upon failure:
assert(item_data, item_name + " has no item data in ItemDatabase")
This makes it easier to immediately see what the issue is by being
able to write informative failure messages.
Thanks to @wiped1 for sharing their patch, upon which this is based.
Closes#17082
They had been reserved for future implementation, but we now have the
`match` CF keyword which does the same and more.
According to @reduz `do` was even added by mistake when copying from
the shader language parser, it was never intended to add support for
`do`... `while` loops, as the syntax would be awkward in GDScript,
and the added sugar is not worth it.
Fixes#25787.
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.
- Typed assignment (built-in, native, and script).
- Cast (built-in conversion; native and script checks).
- Check type of functions arguments on call.
- Check type of members on set.
