As many open source projects have started doing it, we're removing the
current year from the copyright notice, so that we don't need to bump
it every year.
It seems like only the first year of publication is technically
relevant for copyright notices, and even that seems to be something
that many companies stopped listing altogether (in a version controlled
codebase, the commits are a much better source of date of publication
than a hardcoded copyright statement).
We also now list Godot Engine contributors first as we're collectively
the current maintainers of the project, and we clarify that the
"exclusive" copyright of the co-founders covers the timespan before
opensourcing (their further contributions are included as part of Godot
Engine contributors).
Also fixed "cf." Frenchism - it's meant as "refer to / see".
Backported from #70885.
The hash symbol creates spurious issue references on GitHub if
the message is posted outside a code block, which means some issues
have a lot more references than originally intended.
Sets `AlignOperands` to `DontAlign`.
`clang-format` developers seem to mostly care about space-based indentation and
every other version of clang-format breaks the bad mismatch of tabs and spaces
that it seems to use for operand alignment. So it's better without, so that it
respects our two-tabs `ContinuationIndentWidth`.
Extra:
- Optimized the debug-only check about why the object is null to determine if it's because it has been deleted (the RC is enough; no need to check the ObjectDB).
- Because of the previous point. the debugger being attached is not required anymore for giving the "Object was deleted" error; from now, it only matters that it's a debug build.
- `is_instance_valid()` is now trustworthy. It will return `true` if, and only if, the last object assigned to a `Variant` is still alive (and not if a new object happened to be created at the same memory address of the old one).
- Replacements of `instance_validate()` are used where possible `Variant::is_invalid_object()` is introduced to help with that. (GDScript's `is_instance_valid()` is good.)
- 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)
The removed check was adding a protection for the case where a `Reference` has not yet got its reference count initialized and a script is called on it. That would cause the object to be released after the call. The removed code was constructing the `Variant` via the `Object` constructor so it didn't deal with the reference count and so the release was prevented.
However, `Variant` no longer works that way so that check was useless. Now it's just illegal to run GDScript on a Reference whose reference count has not been initialized.
This is needed because of the new changes to Variant. The reference
counter is increased by adding it to a Variant, which means no GDScript
will be freed (or will be double freed if manually freed somewhere).
(cherry picked from commit 4d960efafc)
Now the stack saved in a `GDScriptFunctionState` is cleared as soon as the `yield()` operation is known not to be resumed because either the script, the instance or both are deleted.
This clears problems like leaked objects by eliminating cases of circular references between `GDScriptFunctionState`s preventing them and the objects they refer to in their saved stacks from being released. As an example, this makes using `SceneTreeTimer` safer.
Furthermore, with this change it's now possible to print early warnings about `yield()`s to released script/instances, as now we know they won't be successfully resumed as the condition for that happens. However, this PR doesn't add such messages, to keep the observed behavior the same for the time being.
Also, now a backup of the function name in `GDScriptFunctionState` is used, since the script may not be valid by the time the function name is needed for the resume-after-yield error messages.
Fixes as issue where a subclass calls a base class method that tries to access a constant from the script.
The original code went through every ower class, and for each owner, went through its inheritance tree.
This seems like the wrong order, the modified code goes to each base class, and for each base class goes through the owner tree.
This is more in line with what the parser does, as the current impelemtation allows an access that the parser does not support.
This change should not negatively affect existing code due to the way the parser works
Avoids crashes on debug mode. Instead it now breaks the execution and
show the error in-editor. Will still crash on release.
Also add a similar check to Marshalls to ensure the debugger doesn't
crash when trying to serialize the invalid instance.
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.
Make sure the instance is valid before trying to access the script in
after an error happened. If the instance is not valid it's possible that
the script is invalid as well.
Fix#29623
In some errors, there were closing quotation marks but no opening (e. g. "Unable to iterate on object of type " +
Variant::get_type_name(container->get_type()) + "'."
Before this patch, assert() only took the condition to assert on:
assert(item_data)
Now, it can optionally take a string that will be printed upon failure:
assert(item_data, item_name + " has no item data in ItemDatabase")
This makes it easier to immediately see what the issue is by being
able to write informative failure messages.
Thanks to @wiped1 for sharing their patch, upon which this is based.
Closes#17082
This prevents GDScript functions from leaving the stack too soon when
they are resuming from yield, allowing the ones expecting it to finish
to know the caller.
Helps debugging cases when you use:
`yield(function_which_yields(), "completed")`
since now it shows the call that resumed that function.
Previous version resulted in confusing (but actually right) errors about converting "from Object to Object", since CallError
does not include information about the actual types involved.
