Extrusion direction (normal) of arcs and circles were not taken into
account when importing.
- Add method for calculating a quaternion from extrusion direction
according to DXF arbitrary axis algorithm
- Add required workplanes for arcs not on XY origin plane
- Adjust addDimRadial and addDimDiametric to include normal when
creating associated circle request
This serves two purposes.
First, we want to (some day) convert these messages into a less
obtrustive form, something like toaster notifications, such that they
don't interrupt workflow as harshly. That would, of course, be
nonblocking.
Second, some platforms, like Emscripten, do not support nested event
loops, and it's not possible to display a modal dialog on them
synchronously.
When making this commit, I've reviewed all Error() and Message()
calls to ensure that only some of the following is true for all
of them:
* The call is followed a break or return statement that exits
an UI entry point (e.g. an MenuX function);
* The call is followed by cleanup (in fact, in this case the new
behavior is better, since even with a synchronous modal dialog
we have to be reentrant);
* The message is an informational message only and nothing
unexpected will happen if the operation proceeds in background.
In general, all Error() calls already satisfied the above conditions,
although in some cases I changed control flow aroudn them to more
clearly show that. The Message() calls that didn't satisfy these
conditions were reworked into an asynchronous form.
There are three explicit RunModal() calls left that need to be
reworked into an async form.
This commit updates a *lot* of rather questionable path handling
logic to be robust. Specifically:
* All path operations go through Platform::Path.
* All ad-hoc path handling functions are removed, together with
PATH_SEP. This removes code that was in platform-independent
parts, but had platform-dependent behavior.
* Group::linkFileRel is removed; only an absolute path is stored
in Group::linkFile. However, only Group::linkFileRel is saved,
with the relative path calculated on the fly, from the filename
passed into SaveToFile. This eliminates dependence on global
state, and makes it unnecessary to have separare code paths
for saved and not yet saved files.
* In a departure from previous practice, functions with
platform-independent code but platform-dependent behavior
are all grouped under platform/. This makes it easy to grep
for functions with platform-dependent behavior.
* Similarly, new (GUI-independent) code for all platforms is added
in the same platform.cpp file, guarded with #ifs. It turns out
that implementations for different platforms had a lot of shared
code that tended to go out of sync.
Unfortunately there is no portable way to open an Unicode path with
std::fstream. On *nix, it is enough to call the const char*
constructor. On MSVC, it is enough to call a nonstandard
const wchar_t* constructor. However, on MinGW, there is no way at all
to construct an std::fstream with a wide path, not even using
undocumented APIs. (There used to be a const wchar_t* overload added
back in libstdc++ 4.7, but it got removed for a reason that I was not
able to find out.)
This has several desirable consequences:
* It is now possible to port SolveSpace to a later version of
OpenGL, such as OpenGLES 2, so that it runs on platforms that
only have that OpenGL version;
* The majority of geometry is now rendered without references to
the camera in C++ code, so a renderer can now submit it to
the video card once and re-rasterize with a different projection
matrix every time the projection is changed, avoiding expensive
reuploads;
* The DOGD (draw or get distance) interface is now
a straightforward Canvas implementation;
* There are no more direct references to SS.GW.(projection)
in sketch rendering code, which allows rendering to multiple
viewports;
* There are no more unnecessary framebuffer flips on CPU on Cocoa
and GTK;
* The platform-dependent GL code is now confined to rendergl1.cpp.
* The Microsoft and Apple headers required by it that are prone to
identifier conflicts are no longer included globally;
* The rendergl1.cpp implementation can now be omitted from
compilation to run SolveSpace headless or with a different
OpenGL version.
Note these implementation details of Canvas:
* GetCamera currently always returns a reference to the field
`Camera camera;`. This is so that a future renderer that caches
geometry in the video memory can define it as asserting, which
would provide assurance against code that could accidentally
put something projection-dependent in the cache;
* Line and triangle rendering is specified through a level of
indirection, hStroke and hFill. This is so that a future renderer
that batches geometry could cheaply group identical styles.
* DrawPixmap and DrawVectorText accept a (o,u,v) and not a matrix.
This is so that a future renderer into an output format that
uses 2d transforms (e.g. SVG) could easily derive those.
Some additional internal changes were required to enable this:
* Pixmap is now always passed as std::shared_ptr<{const ,}Pixmap>.
This is so that the renderer could cache uploaded textures
between API calls, which requires it to capture a (weak)
reference.
* The PlatformPathEqual function was properly extracted into
platform-specific code. This is so that the <windows.h> header
could be included only where needed (in platform/w32* as well
as rendergl1.cpp).
* The SBsp{2,3}::DebugDraw functions were removed. They can be
rewritten using the Canvas API if they are ever needed.
While no visual changes were originally intended, some minor fixes
happened anyway:
* The "emphasis" yellow line from top-left corner is now correctly
rendered much wider.
* The marquee rectangle is now pixel grid aligned.
* The hidden entities now do not clobber the depth buffer, removing
some minor artifacts.
* The workplane "tab" now scales with the font used to render
the workplane name.
* The workplane name font is now taken from the normals style.
* Workplane and constraint line stipple is insignificantly
different. This is so that it can reuse the existing stipple
codepaths; rendering of workplanes and constraints predates
those.
Some debug functionality was added:
* In graphics window, an fps counter that becomes red when
rendering under 60fps is drawn.
This is to ensure that:
* it is clear, when looking at the point of usage, what is
the purpose of "true" or "false";
* when refactoring, a simple search will bring up any places that
need to be changed.
Also, argument names were synchronized between declaration and
implementation.
As an exception, these are not annotated:
* Printf(/*halfLine=*/), to avoid pointless churn.
Specifically, this enables -Wswitch=error on GCC/Clang and its MSVC
equivalent; the exact way it is handled varies slightly, but what
they all have in common is that in a switch statement over an
enumeration, any enumerand that is not explicitly (via case:) or
implicitly (via default:) handled in the switch triggers an error.
Moreover, we also change the switch statements in three ways:
* Switch statements that ought to be extended every time a new
enumerand is added (e.g. Entity::DrawOrGetDistance(), are changed
to explicitly list every single enumerand, and not have a
default: branch.
Note that the assertions are kept because it is legal for
a enumeration to have a value unlike any of its defined
enumerands, and we can e.g. read garbage from a file, or
an uninitialized variable. This requires some rearranging if
a default: branch is undesired.
* Switch statements that ought to only ever see a few select
enumerands, are changed to always assert in the default: branch.
* Switch statements that do something meaningful for a few
enumerands, and ignore everything else, are changed to do nothing
in a default: branch, under the assumption that changing them
every time an enumerand is added or removed would just result
in noise and catch no bugs.
This commit also removes the {Request,Entity,Constraint}::UNKNOWN and
Entity::DATUM_POINT enumerands, as those were just fancy names for
zeroes. They mess up switch exhaustiveness checks and most of the time
were not the best way to implement what they did anyway.
Specifically, take the old code that looks like this:
class Foo {
enum { X = 1, Y = 2 };
int kind;
}
... foo.kind = Foo::X; ...
and convert it to this:
class Foo {
enum class Kind : uint32_t { X = 1, Y = 2 };
Kind kind;
}
... foo.kind = Foo::Kind::X;
(In some cases the enumeration would not be in the class namespace,
such as when it is generally useful.)
The benefits are as follows:
* The type of the field gives a clear indication of intent, both
to humans and tools (such as binding generators).
* The compiler is able to automatically warn when a switch is not
exhaustive; but this is currently suppressed by the
default: ssassert(false, ...)
idiom.
* Integers and plain enums are weakly type checked: they implicitly
convert into each other. This can hide bugs where type conversion
is performed but not intended. Enum classes are strongly type
checked.
* Plain enums pollute parent namespaces; enum classes do not.
Almost every defined enum we have already has a kind of ad-hoc
namespacing via `NAMESPACE_`, which is now explicit.
* Plain enums do not have a well-defined ABI size, which is
important for bindings. Enum classes can have it, if specified.
We specify the base type for all enums as uint32_t, which is
a safe choice and allows us to not change the numeric values
of any variants.
This commit introduces absolutely no functional change to the code,
just renaming and change of types. It handles almost all cases,
except GraphicsWindow::pending.operation, which needs minor
functional change.
This includes explanation and context for non-obvious cases and
shortens debug cycles when just-in-time debugging is not available
(like on Linux) by immediately printing description of the assert
as well as symbolized backtrace.
This helps to ensure that a base class that changes underneath us
would not leave any overridden functions hanging.
This already highlighted some questionable use of GTKMM's API,
which were also fixed in this commit.
This is good practice and helps to catch bugs. Several changes
were made to accomodate the newly enabled warnings:
* -Wunused-function:
* in exposed/, static functions that were supposed to be inlined
were explicitly marked as inline;
* some actually unused functions were removed;
* -Wsign-compare: explicit conversions were added, and in
the future we should find a nicer way than aux* fields;
* -Wmissing-field-initializers: added initializers;
* -Wreorder: reordered properly;
* -Wunused-but-set-variable: remove variable.
-Wunused-parameter was turned off as enabling it would result in
massive amount of churn in UI code. Despite that, we should enable
it at some point as it has a fairly high SNR otherwise.
