-Decode/Encode functions for u8,s8,u16,s16,u32,s32,u64,s64,half,float,double,variant
-Improved binder template to allow this
Given in Godot 4.0 PackedByteArray is passed as reference, it is now possible to have these functions there, which makes the most sense.
* Properly exposed, including validated and variant call
* Bound static functions in String and Color
* Did not add support for scripting languages, will have to be added manually.
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 🎆
ptrcall is now also used to optimize calls in GDScript, on top of the existing
use by the GDNative and Mono modules.
It no longer makes sense to make it optional.
* Using C-style function pointers now, InternalMethod is gone.
* This ensures much better performance in typed code.
* Renamed builtin_funcs to utility_funcs, to avoid naming confusion
