Summary:
Old idea with changes since previous release tag
didn't work good enough. In most of the cases tag
was done in a branch hence not actually reachable
from the master branch.
Now change since release is gone, and date of
the latest commit is used instead.
The date is displayed in format YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm
in the splash.
New bpy.app fields:
- build_commit_timestamp is an unix timestamp of
the commit blender was build from.
- build_commit_date is a date of that commit.
- build_commit_time is a time of that commit.

Made it so if there's release/datafiles/locale/po
folder, then all the .po files will be converted
to .mo at blender compile time and installed to
an appropriate location.
Uses small own implementation msgfmt which is
based on msgfmt.py from Python project, but also
supports contexts.
There's no functional changes for until we've
switched to use source .po files instead of
pre-compiled .mo.
P.S. Well, there's one change which is msgfmt.cc
being compiled even if it's not used, but
would rather not clutter code with checks
since pretty soon we'll use this program
anyway.
- Use commit number since last annotated tag as a
revision number replacement. It'll eb followed
by 'M' symbol if there're local modification in
the source tree.
- Commit short SHA1 is included. Helps getting
information about commit used to build blender
with much faster.
- If build is not done from master branch, this also
will be noticed in the splash screen.
This commit also replaces revision stored in the
files with git-specific fields (change and hash).
This is kind of breaks compatibility, meaning
files which were saved before this change wouldn't
display any information about which revision they
were saved with. When we'll finally switch to git,
we'll see proper hash and change number since
previous release in the files, for until then
svn version will be used as a change number and
hash will be empty.
Not a huge deal, since this field was only used
by developers to help torubleshooting things and
isn't needed for blender itself.
Some additional tweaks are probably needed :)
We now support the combined layer of Photoshop files (stored as layer 0
in the file). This way users can keep their files as multilayer PSD and
Blender always handle them as flat images.
For perfect alpha this requires an OpenImageIO update:
342cc2633f
Photoshop sample files:
https://github.com/OpenImageIO/oiio-images
Brecht has some pending fixes to push for OIIO as well, so we may as
well wait to update our libraries.
What works:
===========
* 8bit images (with or without alpha)
* 16bits images (alpha discarded)
* Photoshop files saved with 'Maximum Compatibility'
* Cycles, Blender internal, BGE (and player)
Known limitations
(due to OIIO dependency):
=========================
* Images with less than 4 channels show a wrong thumbnail (bug may be in OIIO)
* Packed images are not supported
* We do not write PSD files.
Note: old Blenders have support for PSD via Quicktime library. But due
to license issues this was discontinued.
Many thanks for Brecht van Lommel for reviewing the patch, suggesting
multiple improvements and to help solving the alpha issue.
Crash was happening on windows platforms only and was caused
by some specifics about how CRT works.
Basically, blender and all of the .dll are compiled with /MT
flag, which means blender.exe and all .dll are using separate
environments. This makes it impossible to pass file descriptors
from blender to other dll, because it becomes invalid in the dll.
And this is exactly what was happening: OIIO was trying to open
movie file with all known plugins and one of them was zlib. And
the way OIIO was using zlib API is opening the file using Boost
and passing a file descriptor to zlib. And since zlib was a
dynamic library this lead to general issues using this descriptor
in zlib code.
Solved by linking to zlib statically. This allows to safely pass
file descriptor to zlib API. Alternative would be to compile all
the stuff with /MD flag, but that's much bigger and less robust
way to fix the issue.
Tested on windows using msvc2008, scons plus cmake both 32 and 64
bit versions. Seems to be working fine.
Further tweaks for mingw and msvc2012 could be needed tho.
- Extending CMakeLists.txt to support builds with VC2012.
- Fix some typo in CMakeLists.txt
- Introduces experimental WITH_AVX_CPU to build with /arch:AVX (VC11 only)
Makes code in tracking.cc much easier to understand and modify,
without worring to breck compulation with Libmv disabled.
It is still possible compilation will break due to libmv-capi
changes, but that's not happening so much often.
- enable site-packages for bundled python distrobution, py3.2 had a problem where it would try to parse headers we didnt include, but its resolved now.
- workaround for glitch I was having on arch-linux where lib64 would be be used for the bundled python directory when it was just a symlink.
Conflicts resolved:
source/blenderplayer/bad_level_call_stubs/SConscript
Partly reverted changes to intern/cycles/blender/addon/ui.py in revision 52899
to make it easier to merge trunk changes.
Resolved conflicts:
release/datafiles/startup.blend
source/blender/editors/space_nla/nla_buttons.c
Also updated source/blender/blenkernel/intern/linestyle.c as a follow-up of
recent changes for the use of bool.
This patch allows Blender to display i18n monospace font in the text
editor and the Python interactive console. Wide characters that occupy
multiple columns such as CJK characters can be displayed correctly.
Furthermore, wrapping, selection, suggestion, cursor drawing, and
syntax highlighting should work.
Also fixes a bug [#34543]: In Text Editor false color in comment on cyrillic
To estimate how many columns each character occupies, this patch uses
wcwidth.c written by Markus Kuhn and distributed under MIT-style license:
http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~mgk25/ucs/wcwidth.c
wcwidth.c is stored in extern/wcwidth and used as a static library.
This patch adds new API to blenfont, blenlib and blenkernel:
BLF_get_unifont_mono()
BLF_free_unifont_mono()
BLF_draw_mono()
BLI_wcwidth()
BLI_wcswidth()
BLI_str_utf8_char_width()
BLI_str_utf8_char_width_safe()
txt_utf8_offset_to_column()
txt_utf8_column_to_offset()
This option allow Blender to be linked against the Framework python
It's useful if you want to have blenderplayer and bpy in the same application and need to avoid PyThread problems.
patch reviewed by Jens Verwiebe before 2.66. He may want to change something though.
(also small: I changed:
/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions//python
by
/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions//Python
as the latter seems to be the norm)
SSBA seemed to be working OK last time i've checked it
with MSVC and optimization enabled.
Also, we'll likely replace it with own BA soon, which
works fine with MSVC anyway.
find ldl symbols because order of libraries seems to be critical
for gcc linker.
A bit stupid, but that's how linker works..
Both CMake and SCons shall work fine on linux now.
Root of the issue goes to SSBA library which didn't work
properly when using optimization in MSVC. It was worked
around by disabling optimization for libmv, which is in
fact shame and shouldn't have been done.
It seems after some changes optimization does not affect
on SSBA code, but enabling optimization could be risky so
close to release.
For now solved by splitting SSBA to separate CMake/SCons
library, disabling optimization only for this particular
library and enabling optimization for rest of libmv.
Tested on all files which used to fail with optimization
enabled in SSBA and all of them works the same as before.
Tracking speed is significantly higher now.
After release we'll enable optimization for SSBA as well,
so there'll be no crappy build setup. Later we'll replace
old SSBA library with new BA code based on Ceres.
Bundle script would be broken for until then, so better
not to use it.
This modules does not depend on any blender-specific data
structures or algorithms and due to our policy better be
placed to intern/
Shall be no functional changes, tested CMake and SCons on
Linux, hopefully other platforms will work as well.
P.S. SVN history shall be preserved for the files.
It's mostly a C API for bullet that interfaces nicely with blender.
It could act as a generic interface for rigid body simulations but right
now it's very specific to bullet.
TODO: Fix building without bullet.
Part of GSoC 2010 and 2012.
Authors: Joshua Leung (aligorith), Sergej Reich (sergof)
Note: this doesn't work yet for everything with latest stable bullet (2.81), need to look into why and likely apply some patches upstream.
However I managed to link blender by disabling some features, likely it can be made to work without too much trouble.
RangeTree is a simple C++ tree set for storing non-overlapping scalar
ranges. Original source from:
https://github.com/nicholasbishop/RangeTree
Also update the build systems to include RangeTree.
