There was no constructor for Ref from const pointer, so compiler decided
to construct Variant from pointer and then construct Ref from Variant
which turned it into NULL, because the Variant had null ref field.
Some methods require a const Ref<T> argument,
the ptrcall method wrappers cast `void *` to the
apropriate types. The problem is that there is no `Ref(const T *)`
constructor, but since Ref modifies the refcount of a Reference
anyway there's no point in a const version.
The problem is that with a `const T *` constructor call, the
argument gets converted to Variant first and loses all the
reference information, resulting in a null reference as the
argument to the constructor.
I can show you the code
Pretty, with proper whitespace
Tell me, coder, now when did
You last write readable code?
I can open your eyes
Make you see your bad indent
Force you to respect the style
The core devs agreed upon
A whole new world
A new fantastic code format
A de facto standard
With some sugar
Enforced with clang-format
A whole new world
A dazzling style we all dreamed of
And when we read it through
It's crystal clear
That now we're in a whole new world of code
Made sure files in core/ and tools/ have a proper Godot license header
when written by us. Also renamed aabb.{cpp,h} and object_type_db.{cpp,h}
to rect3.{cpp,h} and class_db.{cpp,h} respectively.
Also added a proper header to core/io/base64.{c,h} after clarifying
the licensing with the original author (public domain).
That year should bring the long-awaited OpenGL ES 3.0 compatible renderer
with state-of-the-art rendering techniques tuned to work as low as middle
end handheld devices - without compromising with the possibilities given
for higher end desktop games of course. Great times ahead for the Godot
community and the gamers that will play our games!
