This allows using generic Godot collections as type arguments for other
generic Godot collections. This also allows generic Godot collections
as parameter or return type in dynamic Callable invocations.
We aim to make the C# API reflection-free, mainly for concerns about
performance, and to be able to target NativeAOT in refletion-free mode,
which reduces the binary size.
One of the main usages of reflection still left was the dynamic
invokation of callable delegates, and for some time I wasn't sure
I would find an alternative solution that I'd be happy with.
The new solution uses trampoline functions to invoke the delegates:
```
static void Trampoline(object delegateObj, NativeVariantPtrArgs args, out godot_variant ret)
{
if (args.Count != 1)
throw new ArgumentException($"Callable expected 1 arguments but received {args.Count}.");
string res = ((Func<int, string>)delegateObj)(
VariantConversionCallbacks.GetToManagedCallback<int>()(args[0])
);
ret = VariantConversionCallbacks.GetToVariantCallback<string>()(res);
}
Callable.CreateWithUnsafeTrampoline((int num) => "Foo" + num, &Trampoline);
```
Of course, this is too much boilerplate for user code. To improve this,
the `Callable.From` methods were added. These are overloads that take
`Action` and `Func` delegates, which covers the most common use cases:
lambdas and method groups:
```
// Lambda
Callable.From((int num) => "Foo" + num);
// Method group
string AppendNum(int num) => "Foo" + num;
Callable.From(AppendNum);
```
Unfortunately, due to limitations in the C# language, implicit
conversions from delegates to `Callable` are not supported.
`Callable.From` does not support custom delegates. These should be
uncommon, but the Godot C# API actually uses them for event signals.
As such, the bindings generator was updated to generate trampoline
functions for event signals. It was also optimized to use `Action`
instead of a custom delegate for parameterless signals, which removes
the need for the trampoline functions for those signals.
The change to reflection-free invokation removes one of the last needs
for `ConvertVariantToManagedObjectOfType`. The only remaining usage is
from calling script constructors with parameters from the engine
(`CreateManagedForGodotObjectScriptInstance`). Once that one is made
reflection-free, `ConvertVariantToManagedObjectOfType` can be removed.
MultiplayerPeer changes:
- Adds is_server_relay_supported virtual method
Informs the upper MultiplayerAPI layer if it can signal peers connected
to the server to other clients, and perform packet relaying among them.
- Adds get_packet_channel and get_packet_mode virtual methods
Allows the MultiplayerAPI to retrieve the channel and transfer modes to
use when relaying the last received packet.
SceneMultiplayerPeer changes:
- Implement peer signaling and packet relaying when the MultiplayerPeer
advertise they are supported.
ENet, WebRTC, WebSocket changes:
- Removed custom code for relaying from WebSocket and ENet, and let it
be handled by the upper layer.
- Update WebRTC to split create_client, create_server, and create_mesh,
with the latter behaving like the old initialize with
"server_compatibility = false", and the first two supporting the upper
layer relaying protocol.
- Made use of [param] more frequently,
- Link to other classes' documentation more often, improve the examples.
- Made the writing style closer to how the rest of the documentation is formatted.
- Ensure these are called "functions", not "methods".
- Add [b]Warning:[/b] where more appropriate than [b]Note:[/b]
Most notably, removed " It must be a static string, so format strings can't be used.", as this behavior is actually a bug.
The bug was caused by not checking the TCP CONNECTING state
appropriately during the client handshake, and not checking the TCP
CONNECTED state during connection (which is unlikely, but might still
happen).
We were compiling `src/loaders/external_png` but using the header from
`src/loaders/png`, leading to `-Wodr` warnings.
Remove unused bundled lodepng code since we use `external_png` (libpng).
Whitespace changes are from upstream, will attempt PR'ing a cleanup there for
future updates.
This commit is a huge refactor of the websocket module.
The module is really old, and some design choices had to be
re-evaluated.
The WebSocketClient and WebSocketServer classes are now gone, and
WebSocketPeer can act as either client or server.
The WebSocketMultiplayerPeer class is no longer abstract, and implements
the Multiplayer API on top of the lower level WebSocketPeer.
WebSocketPeer is now a "raw" peer, like StreamPeerTCP and StreamPeerTLS,
so it emits no signal, and just needs polling to update its internal
state.
To use it as a client, simply call WebSocketPeer.coonect_to_url, then
frequently poll the peer until STATE_OPEN is reached and then you can
write or read from it, or STATE_CLOSED and then you can check the
disconnect code and reason).
To implement a server instead, a TCPServer must be created, and the
accepted connections needs to be provided to
WebSocketPeer.accept_stream (which will perform the HTTP handshake).
A full example of a WebSocketServer using TLS will be provided in the
demo repository.
Replace all TODO uses of `#warning` by proper TODO comments, and will open
matching bug reports to keep track of them.
We don't have a great track record fixing TODOs, but I'd wager we're even
worse for fixing these "TODO #warning" so we should prohibit this usage.
The function that was supposed to implement the saving in
image_loader_jpegd was just returning OK without doing anything.
Copied the code from _jpgd_buffer_save_func to _jpgd_save_func but
changed the ImageLoaderJPGOSBufferto a ImageLoaderJPGOSFile to save
to a file instead of memory. Changed the image format from
FORMAT_ETC2_RGB8 to FORMAT_RGB8 since the first one was creating
a weird greyscale interlaced image.
Ensures that the versions always match the Godot version, albeit following
SemVer 2.0 so inserting a dot between "beta" and the build number.
For "stable" status, we omit the suffix as this would be interpreted as a
pre-release build too.
So we have:
| Godot version | Nupkg version |
| -------------- | -------------- |
| 4.0.0-beta | 4.0.0-beta |
| 4.0.0-beta2 | 4.0.0-beta.2 |
| 4.0.0-rc1 | 4.0.0-rc.1 |
| 4.0.0-stable | 4.0.0 |
