The issue was caused by passing start iterator larger than end iterator
to std::copy in triangulation module. It'll do nothing on linux but will
throw an exception on windows. Now behavior will be identical on both
platforms.
Proper solution would be to figure out why exactly this happened, but it's
easier to be forwarded to Tobias and we'll need to get rid of triangulation
anyway.
This should solve issues:
#30100: boolean intersect crashes blender
#33001: Crash on applying Boolean difference modifier
#33045: Boolean modifier crash with mirrored objects
Error was caused by boost library (which doesn't seem to be working with Cycles too
when compiling with mingw). Switched mingw to use TR1 unordered collections. Also,
there was re-declaration of strcasecmp when mingw is used.
Additional changes are related on using own process spawning when BF_TOOLSET is set to
mingw. Seems to be working fine now (i've got too long command line error) and no
warning are supressing now (as it was told in comment for commented own process spawning).
==================================
Merging Carve library integration project into the trunk.
This commit switches Boolean modifier to another library which handles
mesh boolean operations in much stable and faster way, resolving old
well-known limitations of intern boolop library.
Carve is integrating as alternative interface for boolop library and
which makes it totally transparent for blender sources to switch between
old-fashioned boolop and new Carve backends.
Detailed changes in this commit:
- Integrated needed subset of Carve library sources into extern/
Added script for re-bundling it (currently works only if repo
was cloned by git-svn).
- Added BOP_CarveInterface for boolop library which can be used by
Boolean modifier.
- Carve backend is enabled by default, can be disabled by WITH_BF_CARVE
SCons option and WITH_CARVE CMake option.
- If Boost library is found in build environment it'll be used for
unordered collections. If Boost isn't found, it'll fallback to TR1
implementation for GCC compilers. Boost is obligatory if MSVC is used.
Tested on Linux 64bit and Windows 7 64bit.
NOTE: behavior of flat objects was changed. E.g. Plane-Sphere now gives
plane with circle hole, not plane with semisphere. Don't think
it's really issue because it's not actually defined behavior in
such situations and both of ways might be useful. Since it's
only known "regression" think it's OK to deal with it.
