This is useful in case one wants to create a workplane based on
one of the reference ones, to be explicit, or to avoid fishing out
again the line segments used to create a workplane at an angle.
Before this commit, a translate group based on another translate
group would always use the "union" boolean operation, which does not
work at all if one wants an array with a difference operation, and
results in degraded performance if one wants an array with
an assemble operation.
This has the following benefits:
* Less geometry to generate; we can do both in one pass;
* Less geometry to draw;
* Eliminate overdraw of outlines on top of emphasized edges;
* In future, being able to seamlessly stitch stippled lines.
The contour edges are now also drawn before emphasized edges;
this makes intersections of contour and emphasized edges look better
as the thinner emphasized edge doesn't clobber the depth buffer.
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 is done because a meaningful union extrusion is almost never
a meaningful difference extrusion, and saves a bunch of common
manual work.
To avoid creating invalid sketches this isn't done when there are any
constraints.
The immediate reason for refactoring this was that the GTK port broke
after 52af7256 since config.h is not included anymore, but it was
a fragile piece of code I will shed no tears for.
While we're at it, get rid of the mutable std::string &file to be
consistent with our conventions.
A new button is added, "Show/hide outline of solid model".
When the outline is hidden, it is rendered using the "solid edge"
style. When the outline is shown, it is rendered using the "outline"
style.
In SolveSpace's true WYSIWYG tradition, the 2d view export follows
the rendered view exactly.
Moreover, shell edges are not rendered anymore, since there is not
much need in them anymore and not drawing them lessens the overlap
between various kinds of lines, which already includes entities,
solid edges and outlines.
In my (whitequark's) experience this warning tends to expose
copy-paste errors with a high SNR, so making a few fragments
slightly less symmetric is worth it.
Also mollify -Wlogical-op-parentheses while we're at it.
This setting is generally useful, but it especially shines when
assembling, since the "same orientation" and "parallel" constraints
remove three and two rotational degrees of freedom, which makes them
impossible to use with 3d "point on line" constraint that removes
two spatial and two rotational degrees of freedom.
The setting is not enabled for all imported groups by default
because it exhibits some edge case failures. For example:
* draw two line segments sharing a point,
* constrain lengths of line segments,
* constrain line segments perpendicular,
* constrain line segments to a 90° angle.
This is a truly degenerate case and so it is not considered very
important. However, we can fix this later by using Eigen::SparseQR.
This removes the arbitrary 64 byte restriction (which effectively
limits us to as little as 16 Unicode characters with CJK encodings),
makes classes smaller, and is easier to use.
As a consequence of making the length of all ex-NameStr fields
unbounded, all functions that returned a buffer derived from those
were changed to return std::string. Then, functions that are
contextually similar to the ones described above were changed
to return std::string. Then, functions that now happened to mostly
take an std::string argument converted to a C string were changed
to accept std::string.
This has produced a bit of churn, but is probably for the better.
Now it is possible to give non-ASCII names to groups
as well as see non-ASCII filenames of imported files.
In the future this makes localization possible.
This works for LTR languages, such as European and CJK,
but not RTL such as Arabic. Does Arabic even exist in
monospaced form? I have no idea.
After this commit, SolveSpace deals with paths as follows:
* Paths are generally treated as opaque platform-specific strings.
This helps on Linux, because paths on Linux don't have any
specific encoding and it helps to avoid any operations on them.
* The UI in some places wants to get a basename. In this case,
the newly introduced PATH_SEP is used. This allows to treat
backslash as a regular character, which it is on Linux and OS X.
* The only place where any nontrivial operations on paths are
performed is the g->impFile/impFileRel logic.
Specifically, when saved, g->impFile always contains an absolute
path with separators of the current platform, and g->impFileRel
always contains a relative path with UNIX separators. This allows
to treat backslash as a regular character.
Old files will contain g->impFileRel with Windows separators;
these are detected by looking for a drive letter in g->impFile
and in that case mapping Windows separators to UNIX ones.
There is no need to treat UNIX separators (forward slashes) in
any special way on Windows because there is no way on Windows,
not even via UNC paths, to create or address a directory entry
with a forward slash in its name.
What do we gain from this? Several things.
* First, usage of PATH_MAX (the POSIX constant) is eliminated.
PATH_MAX is actually a lie; Linux and OS X (and probably other BSDs
too) do not have an actual path length limit. Linux claims 4096,
OS X claims 1024, but it is trivial to construct paths that are
longer.
* Second, while Windows does enforce a limit of MAX_PATH (the Win32
constant) for its ASCII functions, the Unicode variants, when
used with UNC paths, do not have this restriction.
The capability to use UNC paths is useful by itself, as it allows
to access files on network shares directly.
* Third, representing paths as std::string will make it easier to
interoperate with *W WinAPI functions later.
This will allow us to use non-POD classes inside these objects
in future and is otherwise functionally equivalent, as well
as more concise.
Note that there are some subtleties with handling of
brace-initialization. Specifically:
On aggregates (e.g. simple C-style structures) using an empty
brace-initializer zero-initializes the aggregate, i.e. it makes
all members zero.
On non-aggregates an empty brace-initializer calls the default
constructor. And if the constructor doesn't explicitly initialize
the members (which the auto-generated constructor doesn't) then
the members will be constructed but otherwise uninitialized.
So, what is an aggregate class? To quote the C++ standard
(C++03 8.5.1 §1):
An aggregate is an array or a class (clause 9) with no
user-declared constructors (12.1), no private or protected
non-static data members (clause 11), no base classes (clause 10),
and no virtual functions (10.3).
In SolveSpace, we only have to handle the case of base classes;
Constraint and Entity have those. Thus, they had to gain a default
constructor that does nothing but initializes the members to zero.
The main benefit is that std::swap will ensure that the type
of arguments is copy-constructible and move-constructible.
It is more concise as well.
When min and max are defined as macros, they will conflict
with STL header files included by other C++ libraries;
in this case STL will #undef any other definition.
In principle, GTK3 is the way forward, and GTK2 is officially
deprecated, though still maintained. In practice however, GTK3
is often unbearably buggy; e.g. on my system, combo boxes
don't ever roll up in GTK3 windows. So I have added support
for both.
This required a few minor changes to the core, namely:
* GTK wants to know beforehand whether a menu item is a check
menu item or a regular one.
* GTK doesn't give us an easy way to execute something after
any event is processed, so an explicit idle timer is added.
This is a no-op on Win32.
* A few function signatures were const'ed, since GTK expects
immutable strings when converting to Glib::ustring.
Microsoft defines an RGB() macro that at one point was compatible with our
version (returning a packed integer containing 8-bit red, green and blue
channels), but is no longer, and the incompatibility led to an awkward
situation in w32main.cpp where we had to restore Microsoft's form of the
macro in order for the commctrl.h header to compile. By renaming the macro
to RGBi()---analogous to the RGBf() macro we already define---we avoid the
hassle entirely.
The SolveSpace top-level directory was getting a bit cluttered, so
following the example of numerous other free-software projects, we move the
main application source into a subdirectory and adjust the build systems
accordingly.
Also, got rid of the obj/ directory in favor of creating it on the fly in
Makefile.msvc.
