This last commit should make everything right for compiling out of the box with python 3.1 on Mac OS X intel. I've been testing/developing this on 10.5 and I'd be very interested to hear feedback from people on other OS versions! Scons and PPC to go...
An engine to use for output can now be selected an influences what
shows in the buttons window, only showing relevant data. The idea
behind this is to make it more clear what is supported where, make
the system more pluggable for external render/game engines, and save
space hiding stuff that is not relevant anyway.
* Top header now has an engine menu, to choose between the blender
render engine, game engine, and other future external engines.
* If the game engine is enabled, the buttons window should show
only properties that work in the game engine, and similarly for
the render engine.
* Moved panels from the logic space and game tabs to the physics,
scene and world tabs instead, and removed the game tab.
* Materials and textures tabs should eventually become game
specific too, to better show what is supported.
* Optimized RNA property lookups and path resolving, still can be
much better, but now the 1000 IPO example on bf-taskforce25
runs at reasonable speed.
* Also an optimization in the depsgraph when dealing with many
objects, this was actually also a bottleneck here.
* Update cmake and makefiles to link python generic.
* Fix game engine building for cmake and makefiles.
* Fix compile error with py 3.x, due to 2.x compat fix.
Send the full python stack trace to the reporting api,
added BPY_exception_buffer which temporarily overrides sys.stdout and sys.stderr to get the output (uses the io module in py3 StringIO in py2 to avoid writing into a real file), pity the Py/C api has no function to do this.
fix for crash when showing menu's that have no items.
* Missing changes to release/windows/installer
* Sequencer fixes in source/blender/src/seqaudio.c dont apply to 2.5
* brechts fix for #18855 r20763 wasnt merged, does this apply to 2.5?
svn merge https://svn.blender.org/svnroot/bf-blender/trunk/blender -r19820:HEAD
Notes:
* Game and sequencer RNA, and sequencer header are now out of date
a bit after changes in trunk.
* I didn't know how to port these bugfixes, most likely they are
not needed anymore.
* Fix "duplicate strip" always increase the user count for ipo.
* IPO pinning on sequencer strips was lost during Undo.
1) Remove WITH_FREETYPE2 from code, so now blender always need freetype2
2) Remove the old bmfont
3) Remove ftfont and bFTGL library
4) Implement a new BLF_draw_default function for place that still need/use
the old BMF api.
I try to update both, scons and cmake, but I only can test with make, so
hope all work fine.
MSVC is broken, but I don't have Windows, things to search and fix are
any reference to WITH_FREETYPE2, FTGL and BMFONT (take in care that
blenkernel also have a BKE_bmfont.h, this don't have anything to do with bmfont).
Always have to link/include the freetype2 library
Remove any reference to libbmfont
Remove any reference to libftfont
Remove any reference to libbftgl (or libbFTGL)
this means it caches the compiled pyc files after importing fro the first time.
My times for importing 501 buttons_objects.py files were.
- running each as a script 1.9sec
- importing for the first time 1.8sec
- importing a second time (using pyc files) 0.57sec
Also added "bpy" to sys.modules so it can be imported.
* Added very basic loading of .py files on startup to define panels.
It now executes all .py files in .blender/ui on startup. Right now
this contains the object buttons, the C code for it is commented out.
These files should get embedded in the blender executable as well
eventually, that's a bit more complicated so this works for now.
* For scons and cmake it seems to copy & find the files OK, for make
only "make release" works (same with scripts/ folder it seems).
* Added BLI_gethome_folder function in BLI_util.h. This is adapted
from bpy_gethome, and gives the path to a folder in .blender like
scripts or ui.
There's plenty of things to figure out here about paths, embedding,
caching, user configs ...
Notes:
* Sequence transform strip uses G.scene global, this is commented
out now, should be fixed.
* Etch-a-ton code was most difficult to merge. The files already in
2.5 got merged, but no new files were added. Calls to these files
are commented out with "XXX etch-a-ton". editarmature.c and
transform_snap.c were complex to merge. Martin, please check?
* Game engine compiles and links again here for scons/make/cmake
(player still fails to link).
I also did some small tweaks. removed ifdef's for pluginapi
didn't need them there.
Fixed it so the filesel shows jp2 as image files.
(I'm going to do makefiles next)

Note to bdiego: this module seems to depend on ftfont, which is only compiled with the INTERNATIONAL build setting, however it seems blenfont should work regardless of that setting.
Support for jpeg2000 and writing DCI Cinema standard files.
Notes
* 12 and 16bit channel depths are converted from/to blenders float buffer.
* Grayscale/RGB with alpha supported.
* Theres an option to save color channels as YCC rather then RGB.
* Quality 100 saves lossless
* The UI is a bit weired because of the DCI standards need to be given to the encoder.
Testing commit; this puts back support for swap-exchange graphics
cards, which I had hoped to have faded out... but it appears it
still does it for intel and some atis.
This only swap-exchanges properly for areas/regions, not for
menus or the 'action zone triange'. Let's see if it works!
You enable it with starting with commandline option -E
- remove Verse support. This will be brought back in The Future (probably jiri + me)
This means 5k lines less in blenkernel.
- fix two small errors for global cleanup, now compiles properly with FFMPEG enabled too.
Think global, act local!
The old favorite G.scene gone! Man... that took almost 2 days.
Also removed G.curscreen and G.edbo.
Not everything could get solved; here's some notes.
- modifiers now store current scene in ModifierData. This is not
meant for permanent, but it can probably stick there until we
cleaned the anim system and depsgraph to cope better with
timing issues.
- Game engine G.scene should become an argument for staring it.
Didn't solve this yet.
- Texture nodes should get scene cfra, but the current implementation
is too tightly wrapped to do it easily.
