- PyLong_FromSsize_t --> PyLong_FromLong
- PyLong_AsSsize_t --> PyLong_AsLong
In all places except for those where python api expects PySsize_t (index lookups mainly).
- use PyBool_FromLong in a few areas of the BGE.
- fix incorrect assumption in the BGE that PySequence_Check() means PySequence_Fast_ functions can be used.
Remove the last of the odd C++/python wrapper code from http://www.python.org/doc/PyCPP.html (~1998)
* Use python subclasses rather then having fake subclassing through get/set attributes calling parent types.
* PyObject getset arrays are created while initializing the types, converted from our own attribute arrays. This way python deals with subclasses and we dont have to define getattro or setattro functions for each type.
* GameObjects and Scenes no longer have attribute access to properties. only dictionary style access - ob['prop']
* remove each class's get/set/dir functions.
* remove isA() methods, can use PyObject_TypeCheck() in C and issubclass() in python.
* remove Parents[] array for each C++ class, was only used for isA() and wasnt correct in quite a few cases.
* remove PyTypeObject that was being passed as the last argument to each class (the parent classes too).
TODO -
* Light and VertexProxy need to be converted to using attributes.
* memory for getset arrays is never freed, not that bad since its will only allocates once.
svn merge https://svn.blender.org/svnroot/bf-blender/trunk/blender -r19820:HEAD
Notes:
* Game and sequencer RNA, and sequencer header are now out of date
a bit after changes in trunk.
* I didn't know how to port these bugfixes, most likely they are
not needed anymore.
* Fix "duplicate strip" always increase the user count for ipo.
* IPO pinning on sequencer strips was lost during Undo.
- Initialize python types with PyType_Ready, which adds methods to the type dictionary.
- use Pythons get/setattro (uses a python string for the attribute rather then char*). Using basic C strings seems nice but internally python converts them to python strings and discards them for most functions that accept char arrays.
- Method lookups use the PyTypes dictionary (should be faster then Py_FindMethod)
- Renamed __getattr -> py_base_getattro, _getattr -> py_getattro, __repr -> py_base_repr, py_delattro, py_getattro_self etc.
From here is possible to put all the parent classes methods into each python types dictionary to avoid nested lookups (api has 4 levels of lookups in some places), tested this but its not ready yet.
Simple tests for getting a method within a loop show this to be between 0.5 and 3.2x faster then using Py_FindMethod()
* Made GameLogic.addActiveActuator(actu, bool) to raise an error if the actuator is not in the list. Before it would allow any value as the actuator and fail silently (makes debugging scripts more difficult).
* Allow the actuator to be a string which is convenient if you dont want to change the settings of the actuator.
* Added activate/deactivate functions to the controller, this is more logical since the GameLogic.addActiveActuator() function is running through the controller anyway.
GameLogic.addActiveActuator(controller.getActuator("SomeAct"), True)
...can be replaced with...
controller.activate("SomeAct")
Use 'const char *' rather then the C++ 'STR_String' type for the attribute identifier of python attributes.
Each attribute and method access from python was allocating and freeing the string.
A simple test with getting an attribute a loop shows this speeds up attribute lookups a bit over 2x.
The principle is to replace most get/set methods of logic bricks by direct property access.
To make porting of game code easier, the properties have usually the same type and use than
the return values/parameters of the get/set methods.

Old methods are still available but will produce deprecation warnings on the console:
"<method> is deprecated, use the <property> property instead"
You can avoid these messages by turning on the "Ignore deprecation warnings" option in Game menu.
PyDoc is updated to include the new properties and display a deprecation warning
for the get/set methods that are being deprecated.
Previously, this behaviour was available only for sensors
that were not connected to any active state, which was
forcing the game designer to duplicate sensors in some
cases.
For example the Always sensors used to initialize the
states needed to be duplicated for each state. With this
patch, a single Always sensor with Level option enabled
will suffice to initialize all the states.
A Python controller can determine which sensor did trigger
with the new SCA_ISensor::isTriggered() function.
Notes:
- When a sensor with level option enabled is connected
to multiple controllers, only those of newly activated
states will be triggered. The controllers of already
activated states will receive no trigger, unless the
sensor internal state toggled, in which case all the
controllers are triggered as always.
- The old isPositive() function returns the internal
state of the sensor, positive or negative; the new
isTriggered() function returns 1 only for sensors
that generated an event in the current frame.
* 2 returning errors without exception set another return None instead of NULL.
* a missing check for parent relation
* BPY matrix length was incorrect in matrix.c, this change could break some scripts, however when a script expects a list of lists for a matrix, the len() function is incorrect and will give an error. This was the only thing stopping apricot game logic running in trunk.
Also added a function for GameObjects - getAxisVect(vec), multiplies the vector be the objects worldspace rotation matrix. Very useful if you want to know what the forward direction is for an object and dont want to use Blender.Mathutils which is tedious and not available in BlenderPlayer yet.
(adding)
#ifdef HAVE_CONFIG_H
#include <config.h>
#endif
also the Makefile.in's were from previous patch adding
the system depend stuff to configure.ac
