This commit adds bounding box support for emission objects - similarly to flow objects. Before, each effector object had to iterate over the entire domain. Bake times of scenes with multiple obstacles improved significantly with this optimization.
Other improvements that were implemented alongside the bbox feature:
- Option for subframe sampling for effector objects
- Option to enable / disable effectors (can be animated)
- Optimization for static objects. If a flow or effector object does not move and the adaptive domain is not in use, the bake time will be optimized further by reusing the flow / effector grids from the previous frame (no recalculation).
Some fluid cache functions were not using Blender's more secure BLI_gzopen() function. On Windows there are some special cases which this function can handle compared to the plain gzopen().
Various fixes for smoke / fire flow objects:
- Apply inflow at every subframe (new: also emit during adaptive steps in between frames)
- Fix issue with fire not being emitted on first frame
- Higher value range for smoke flow density variable
MSVC has a conformance mode (/permissive-) where the C++ standard is more strictly
enforced. This mode is available on MSVC 15.5+ [1]
This patch enables this mode on compilers that support it and cleans up the few violations it threw up in the process.
- Mantaflow was using M_PI without requesting them using the _USE_MATH_DEFINES define to opt in to non default behaviour.
- Collada did not include the right header for std::cerr, this seemingly was fixed for other platforms already but put inside a platform guard.
- Ghost had some scoping issues regarding uninitialized variables and goto behaviour
Second landing of this patch, earlier commit was reverted due to some compiler configurations having slipped though testing

It is breaking compilation on some configurations, revert for now while
i see what is wrong.
This reverts commit 9fe469c110940af5d2525158305d5d365bd15276.

Fluid guiding functionality was broken in the bake / read cache loop in fluid.c. Committing this to the release branch as otherwise fluid guiding would not have worked as expected (i.e. not at all).
bf_intern_mantaflow lacked the `-DOPENVDB_STATICLIB` define
causing it to dynamically import openvdb, linked against
our static libs a happy time was not had by the linker.
Cache files are currently loaded via the Manta Python API. With very big caches this can slow down the viewport playback. Especially smoke simulations, which just load grids and no meshes, can suffer from this. This fix solves this problem by directly loading the cache files from disk (no Python). This fix has been in the works for some time. The developer of this patch is ready to handle any potential fall-out of this patch quickly.
This commit cleans up the flow emission code (i.e. the code that determines where flow is generated). It also addresses an issue with initial velocities.
Related issues (that might be fixed through this commit) are: T73422, T72949
This is a more correct fix to the issue Brecht was fixing in D6600.
While the fix in that patch worked fine for linking it broke ASAN
runtime under some circumstances.
For example, `make full debug developer` would compile, but trying
to start blender will cause assert failure in ASAN (related on check
that ASAN is not running already).
Top-level idea: leave it to CMake to keep track of dependency graph.
The root of the issue comes to the fact that target like "blender" is
configured to use a lot of static libraries coming from Blender sources
and to use external static libraries. There is nothing which ensures
order between blender's and external libraries. Only order of blender
libraries is guaranteed.
It was possible that due to a cycle or other circumstances some of
blender libraries would have been passed to linker after libraries
it uses, causing linker errors.
For example, this order will likely fail:
libbf_blenfont.a libfreetype6.a libbf_blenfont.a
This change makes it so blender libraries are explicitly provided
their dependencies to an external libraries, which allows CMake to
ensure they are always linked against them.
General rule here: if bf_foo depends on an external library it is
to be provided to LIBS for bf_foo.
For example, if bf_blenkernel depends on opensubdiv then LIBS in
blenkernel's CMakeLists.txt is to include OPENSUBDIB_LIBRARIES.
The change is made based on searching for used include folders
such as OPENSUBDIV_INCLUDE_DIRS and adding corresponding libraries
to LIBS ion that CMakeLists.txt. Transitive dependencies are not
simplified by this approach, but I am not aware of any downside of
this: CMake should be smart enough to simplify them on its side.
And even if not, this shouldn't affect linking time.
Benefit of not relying on transitive dependencies is that build
system is more robust towards future changes. For example, if
bf_intern_opensubiv is no longer depends on OPENSUBDIV_LIBRARIES
and all such code is moved to bf_blenkernel this will not break
linking.
The not-so-trivial part is change to blender_add_lib (and its
version in Cycles). The complexity is caused by libraries being
provided as a single list argument which doesn't allow to use
different release and debug libraries on Windows. The idea is:
- Have every library prefixed as "optimized" or "debug" if
separation is needed (non-prefixed libraries will be considered
"generic").
- Loop through libraries passed to function and do simple parsing
which will look for "optimized" and "debug" words and specify
following library to corresponding category.
This isn't something particularly great. Alternative would be to
use target_link_libraries() directly, which sounds like more code
but which is more explicit and allows to have more flexibility
and control comparing to wrapper approach.
Tested the following configurations on Linux, macOS and Windows:
- make full debug developer
- make full release developer
- make lite debug developer
- make lite release developer
NOTE: Linux libraries needs to be compiled with D6641 applied,
otherwise, depending on configuration, it's possible to run into
duplicated zlib symbols error.

This commit belongs to T72894. It's related to (my) previous commits on pointer exchanges (today + yesterday). It cleans up the functions by describing their usage in the comments, adds additional nullptr checks, and fixes the reference count responsibilities of newly created PyObjects.
Cache file loading for mesh and particle files now works through the direct update_structures functions. The final cache mode now also only bakes the most essential files and is therefore not resumable anymore.
Files from /intern/mantaflow handle the communication between core Blender code and Mantaflow itself. It's the bridge to communicate with Mantas Python functions.
Code from /intern/mantaflow/intern/strings/ is pure Manta code and would likely need less attention in the review.
