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 🎆
- 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
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.
The underscore prefix was used to avoid the conflict between the `RID` class
name and the matching enum value in `Variant::Type`.
This can be fixed differently by prefixing uses of the `RID` class in `Variant`
with the scope resolution operator, as done already for `AABB`.
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.
Depending on the conditional statements of the 'for' and 'while' loops,
their body may not even execute once. For example:
func a():
var arr = []
for i in arr:
return i
# can be reached, but analysis says cannot
return -1
func b():
var should_loop = false
while should_loop:
return 1
# can be reached, but analysis says cannot
return 0
The parser will complain that the statements after the comment cannot
be reached, but it is clearly possible for our scenario. This is
because the parser falsely assumes that the loop body will always
execute at least once.
Fix the code to remove this assumption for both of those loops.
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.
Calling _reduce_node_type from GDScriptParser::_parse_block for assert
was using a current class with a scope that didn't include all
functions. Now calling in GDScriptParser::_check_block_types uses the
right class type. We also now check the assert node message. The assert
line was added to the set_errors associated with assert, since before
the error would be reported on the next line
Now calling _reduce_node_type with debugging enabled to determine
if assert line is safe. Part of doing this required the assert line
to be stored away. Now the AssertNode line is being correctly set.
Newlines are now marked safe always
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`.
- Renames PackedIntArray to PackedInt32Array.
- Renames PackedFloatArray to PackedFloat32Array.
- Adds PackedInt64Array and PackedFloat64Array.
- Renames Variant::REAL to Variant::FLOAT for consistency.
Packed arrays are for storing large amount of data and creating stuff like
meshes, buffers. textures, etc. Forcing them to be 64 is a huge waste of
memory. That said, many users requested the ability to have 64 bits packed
arrays for their games, so this is just an optional added type.
For Variant, the float datatype is always 64 bits, and exposed as `float`.
We still have `real_t` which is the datatype that can change from 32 to 64
bits depending on a compile flag (not entirely working right now, but that's
the idea). It affects math related datatypes and code only.
Neither Variant nor PackedArray make use of real_t, which is only intended
for math precision, so the term is removed from there to keep only float.
This attribute is now part of the standard we target so we no longer
need compiler-specific hacks.
Also enables -Wimplicit-fallthrough for Clang now that we can properly
support it. It's already on by default for GCC's -Wextra.
Fixes new warnings raised by Clang's -Wimplicit-fallthrough.
lookup was always done on top level script instead of advancing to subclass each time.
this commit changes the lookup to always be at last found subclass
Needed because otherwise the certain type operations (such as type
casting) used as a function argument might become unresolved on release,
causing a compilation failure.
Fix#28680
Properly sets the type of the identifier for the local variable
that is stored in the assignment operation. This makes sure that the
compiler is aware of typing for local variables when they are
initialized with the declaration.
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.
A class can't have multiple signals with the same name, but previously users
would not be alerted to a conflict while editing the script where it occurred.
Now a helpful error will appear in the editor during script parsing.
This makes sure that the classes internally represented with an
underscore (_) prefix, such as singletons, are still properly checked
for inheritance in the ClassDB.
There's no need to subtract 1 from the assignment usages because it's
not incremented anywhere else.
Also put back the assignment with operators because they should not
count as usage if the argument is on the left side.
Some situations caused the parser node type to not being update when
trying to resolve the type, returning invalid data and breaking the
parsing when it shouldn't. This patch fix the behavior.
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
If you somehow end up with a Singleton.gd that looks like this:
extends Node
class_name Singleton
func foo():
pass
You will get an error when using it in another file:
extends Node2D
func _init():
# Parser Error: Non-static function "foo" can only be called from an instance.
Singleton.foo()
This error is confusing. This patch ensures that an error on the class_name line will be produced:
Parse Error: The class "Singleton" conflicts with the AutoLoad singleton of the same name, and is therefore redundant. Remove the class_name declaration to fix this error.
Fixes#28187.
Obeyed CLANG format rules
Obeying CLANG format rules attempt 2
Obeying CLANG format rules attempt 3
Clean up
Fixed runaway while loop
Removed int initialization
The last remaining ERR_EXPLAIN call is in FreeType code and makes sense as is
(conditionally defines the error message).
There are a few ERR_EXPLAINC calls for C-strings where String is not included
which can stay as is to avoid adding additional _MSGC macros just for that.
Part of #31244.
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.
