Performances are not great in general, bad on Firefox, on Chrome, well,
it's an improvement compared to the way they broke ScriptProcessorNode.
I'm actually surprised this works, it involves so many allocations, but
there's no way around it when SharedArrayBuffer is not available :(.
Browsers doesn't really like forcing the mix rate, e.g. Firefox does not
allow input (microphone) if the mix rate is not the default one, Chrom*
will exhibit worse performances, etc.
- Based on C++11's `thread` and `thread_local`
- No more need to allocate-deallocate or check for null
- No pointer anymore, just a member variable
- Platform-specific implementations no longer needed (except for the few cases of non-portable functions)
- Simpler for `NO_THREADS`
- Thread ids are now the same across platforms (main is 1; others follow)
- Based on C++11's `mutex`
- No more need to allocate-deallocate or check for null
- No pointer anymore, just a member variable
- Platform-specific implementations no longer needed
- Simpler for `NO_THREADS`
- `BinaryMutex` added for special cases as the non-recursive version
- `MutexLock` now takes a reference. At this point the cases of null `Mutex`es are rare. If you ever need that, just don't use `MutexLock`.
- `ScopedMutexLock` is dropped and replaced by `MutexLock`, because they were pretty much the same.
Happy new year to the wonderful Godot community!
2020 has been a tough year for most of us personally, but a good year for
Godot development nonetheless with a huge amount of work done towards Godot
4.0 and great improvements backported to the long-lived 3.2 branch.
We've had close to 400 contributors to engine code this year, authoring near
7,000 commit! (And that's only for the `master` branch and for the engine code,
there's a lot more when counting docs, demos and other first-party repos.)
Here's to a great year 2021 for all Godot users 🎆
(cherry picked from commit b5334d14f7)
Rewrote AudioDriverJavaScript to support multiple processor nodes.
The old (and deprecated) ScriptProcessorNode when threads are not
available, and the new AudioWorklet API when threads are enabled.
The new implementation uses two ring buffers and a shared state to
communicated with the AudioWorklet thread.
The audio.worklet.js JavaScript file is always added to the export
template, but only really used (and download) in the thread build.
The API is implemented in javascript, and generates C functions that can
be called from godot.
This allows much cleaner code replacing all `EM_ASM` calls in our C++
code with plain C function calls.
This also gets rid of few hacks and comes with few optimizations (e.g.
custom cursor shapes should be much faster now).
The size of the audio buffer was incorrectly doubled when creating the
script processor.
latencyHint is expressed in seconds, not milliseconds.
Additionally, on some browsers it actually affect the performance and
stability of the audio driver.
For this reason it has been completely disabled (interactive) and a not
has been left for future reference.
This should fix some of the audio stuttering issues when the HTML5
export is compiled with threads support.
The API should be ported to AudioWorklet to (hopefully) be perfect.
That though, cannot be backported to 3.2 due to extra restriction of
AudioWorklet (which only runs in SecureContext, and needs a polyfill for
Safari).
- Refactored the Engine code, splitted across files.
- Use MODULARIZE option to build emscripten code into it's own closure.
- Optional closure compiler run for JS and generated code.
- Enable lto support (saves ~2MiB in release).
- Can now build with tools=yes (not much to see yet).
- Dropped some deprecated code for older toolchains.
- Add onExit, and onExecute JS function.
- Add files drag and drop support.
- Add support for low precessor usage mode (via offscreen render, swap).
Each driver used to define the (same) project settings value, but the
setting names are not driver specific. Ovverriding is still possible via
platform tags.

Happy new year to the wonderful Godot community!
We're starting a new decade with a well-established, non-profit, free
and open source game engine, and tons of further improvements in the
pipeline from hundreds of contributors.
Godot will keep getting better, and we're looking forward to all the
games that the community will keep developing and releasing with it.
Warnings raised by Emscripten 1.38.0 and MinGW64 5.0.4 / GCC 8.3.0.
JS can now build with `werror=yes warnings=extra`.
MinGW64 still has a few warnings to resolve with `warnings=extra`,
and only one with `warnings=all`.
Part of #29033 and #29801.
Using `misc/scripts/fix_headers.py` on all Godot files.
Some missing header guards were added, and the header inclusion order
was fixed in the Bullet module.
I can show you the code
Pretty, with proper whitespace
Tell me, coder, now when did
You last write readable code?
I can open your eyes
Make you see your bad indent
Force you to respect the style
The core devs agreed upon
A whole new world
A new fantastic code format
A de facto standard
With some sugar
Enforced with clang-format
A whole new world
A dazzling style we all dreamed of
And when we read it through
It's crystal clear
That now we're in a whole new world of code
That year should bring the long-awaited OpenGL ES 3.0 compatible renderer
with state-of-the-art rendering techniques tuned to work as low as middle
end handheld devices - without compromising with the possibilities given
for higher end desktop games of course. Great times ahead for the Godot
community and the gamers that will play our games!
