and made that the default for windows software opengl because that
seems to be working better at least on XP. Previously this could only
be specified from the command line.
- bpy.app moved into PyStructSequence (used by sys.float_info)
- added buildinfo into bpy.app.build_*
- bpy.ui removed (wasnt used)
- include external example files in Mathutils docs (only Mathutils and Vector are currently written)
- added support to auto document PyStructSequence's
- CMake had "'s inside all its strings.
This also means that only -s and -S are accepted to set start frame and scene (before, it would accept anything that started with s or S, you could have done blender -b file.blend -super 1 -Science "scene 2").
We really need better argument parsing...
A wrong libraries link order was causing this problem for
some reason. Since a sorting algorithm for linked libraries
was already implemented in Unix, I just enabled it for Windows.
Note about CMake 2.6.0: The Link Library Dependencies option
(Linker General settings panel) is automatically enabled, which
causes the Blender libraries to be linked twice because CMake
will also add them in the Additional Dependencies field.
CMake 2.8.0 does not have this problem, please upgrade if you
are still using CMake 2.6.0.
Useful when openAL is not setup properly (*cough* pulseaudio *cough) and prevents startup.
This doesn't actually affect the userpref option, so you can set it to whatever you want, save userprefs and restart.
* Now has documentation links and recent files.
* Click on image or outside splash to make it go away.
* Still has old image, new one will be committed later.
- bpy is now a python package, this makes it easier to add utility modules and adjust python startup which was previously using verbose Py/C api. Access should not be any slower since both C and Python modules use dictionary access.
- loop over scripts and load via python (currently F8 reload isnt working, will add back shortly)
- the C module is kept but renamed to _bpy and not meant for direct access from anything but the bpy package.
- bpy_types.py is an exception since it runs before the bpy package is initialized.
What works:
The usual command line options for rendering.
All python scripts are loaded (which includes custom properties)
Render engines are loaded and can be used
-P to run scripts works partially: rna api works ok, not operators.
What doesn't:
Most operator calls in python. This is a problem with poll functions. (Brecht and Campbell are aware of this already)
Changes:
-d now also applied with -b (it was ignored before)
user file (.B25.blend) now also loaded in bg mode. This helps for custom paths and all.
wm is also initialized (it's needed for a lot of context calls)
Ghost, however, is not initialized.
- revert tiff load/save to use standard libtiff (to ensure 100% colorimetry & alpha interpretation across platforms)
- include patch #18720 to fix load of libtiff dynlib (if present on system)
- replace libtiff by calls to Cocoa services to load/save tiff files
(Libtiff, dynamically linked is not distributed with OS X, and would have had to be shipped for all four architectures)
The imb_cocoaLoadImage & imb_cocoaSaveImage are generic towards the bitmap format, and thus can handle TIFF, GIF, JPG, JP2000, BMP and raw camera formats (read-only for these), even if today only TIFF is used as the other formats are already handled.
- CMake updated
- scons updated (Thx to Jens Verwiebe)
- use Cocoa function to convert keys character value to isoLatin-1 encoding instead of the translation table. Works better with international keyboards
- enable stereo GL option
- fix source/creator CMake file to remove unneeded folders in the app bundle (the __MACOSX stuff). (Thx jensverwiebe)
- tablet : fix pressure retrieval => value sliding now works with tablet, UV-painting is pressure sensitive, and no more crash when clicking on window minimize button with the tablet
- update CMake file to remove unneeded folders in the app bundle (the __MACOSX stuff). From Jens' patch
The WITH_LIBS10.5 option switches the use of the libs included in the darwin-9.x.universal folder
Use the CMAKE_OSX_ARCHITECTURES variable to set the architecture you want to build for (e.g. i386, x86_64). Only one at a time, this value is used to select the python_?.zip that is bundled with the app.
WITH_COCOA (build Cocoa ghost and not Carbon) is now on by default.
http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/BlenderDev/Blender2.5/Unix_FHS
for scons WITH_BF_FHS enabled an alternative layout eg.
scons WITH_BF_FHS=1 BF_INSTALLDIR="/usr/local"
for CMake just run "make install" after make (CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX is used for the base path)
Currently only scripts use both the system and user path correctly, other areas of blender have their own path code inline with lots of ifdefs, needs to be carefully updated.
