this works for the calling operators from python and using the RNA api.
bpy.ops.CONSOLE_exec() is now bpy.ops.console.exec()
eg.
split.itemO("PARTICLE_OT_editable_set", text="Free Edit") becomes... split.itemO("particle.editable_set", text="Free Edit")
For now any operator thats called checks if its missing _OT_ and assumes its python syntax and converts it before doing the lookup.
bpy.ops is a python class in release/ui/bpy_ops.py which does the fake submodules and conversion, the C operator api is at bpy.__ops__
personally Id still rather rename C id-names not to contain the _OT_ text which would avoid the conversion, its called a lot since the UI has to convert the operators.
* 3D view Mesh menu works again, but incomplete.
* Add Properties and Toolbar to 3D View menu.
* Added "specials" menus back, vertex/edge/face and general.
* Various fixes in existing mesh operators, some were not working.
* Add MESH_OT_merge.
* Merge all subdivide ops into MESH_OT_subdivide, subdivide code
changes to make smooth + multi give good results.
* Rename all select inverse ops to *_OT_select_inverse.
* Fix "search for unknown operator" prints at startup, and some
warnings in py code.
* Don't run .pyc files on startup.
* Remove unused image window header C code.
* Context panel now draws without header, with arrows, no scene name.
* Softbody vertex group search popup.
* Improve names for autogenerated shortcut keys in menus.
* Make most Select menus in the 3D view header work.
* Fix armature border select selection syncing.
* Add POSE_OT_select_constraint_target,
MESH_OT_select_by_number_vertices, MESH_OT_select_vertex_path.
* Merge mesh select similar into one operator.
* Don't give MESH_OT_select_random Space hotkey.
* Add DAG_object_flush_update to many mesh edit tools, not calling this
will crash with modifiers.
* RNA_def_enum_funcs for dynamic enums in operators, but not very useful
without context yet.
* Fix refresh issue with image window header + editmode.
* Fix drawing of shadow mesh for image painting.
* Remove deprecated uiDefMenuButO and uiDefMenuSep functions.
* Remove keyval.c, code is in wm_keymap.c already.
* Rename WM_operator_redo to WM_operator_props_popup.
Image Window
* Unpack operator now works.
* Some small layout code tweaks.
Info Window Header
* Moved to python UI code.
* template_running_jobs, template_operator_search added.
* Ported external data operators: pack/unpack all, make
paths relative/absolute, find/report missing files.
Also
* Report RPT_INFO too, not only warnings and errors.
* Run UI handle functions after RNA and Operators.
* Rename particle system add/remove operators, to not
include "slot", that's only there for materials because
that's what they are called now in RNA.
* Search popup + autocomplete for bones, vertex groups, etc. This
is done with layout.item_pointerR, specifying an RNA collection to
take the items from. Used by constraints and modifiers.
* Some tests with the List template, ignore those for now..
* Menu and header more complete now.
* Clean up Game Properties panel and moved View Properties panel
to python.
* Fix some drawing issues when combining tiles, repeat and aspect,
some also from 2.4x, these options didn't work together 100%.
* Started porting over to python, menus nearly done, header WIP.
* Game Properties panel is in python too
* Deprecated "Tiles" as a per face flag here, now it's always on
the image, used to be both, working in a very confusing way.
Unlikely someone actually had a purpose for this being per face.
* Remove GPC_PolygonMaterial.cpp/h, it's not actually used anymore,
so I don't want to bother updating it.
* Fix crash in image painting (own mistake in porting over bugfix
from 2.4x).
