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 🎆
Each driver used to define the (same) project settings values
`audio/mix_rate` and `audio/output_latency`, but the setting names are
not driver specific.
Overriding is still possible via platform tags.
Which means that reduz' beloved style which we all became used to
will now be changed automatically to remove the first empty line.
This makes us lean closer to 1TBS (the one true brace style) instead
of hybridating it with some Allman-inspired spacing.
There's still the case of braces around single-statement blocks that
needs to be addressed (but clang-format can't help with that, but
clang-tidy may if we agree about it).
Part of #33027.
For us, it practically only changes the fact that `A<A<int>>` is now
used instead of the C++03 compatible `A<A<int> >`.
Note: clang-format 10+ changed the `Standard` arguments to fully
specified `c++11`, `c++14`, etc. versions, but we can't use `c++17`
now if we want to preserve compatibility with clang-format 8 and 9.
`Cpp11` is still supported as deprecated alias for `Latest`.
Main:
- It's now implemented thanks to `<mutex>`. No more platform-specific implementations.
- `BinaryMutex` (non-recursive) is added, as an alternative for special cases.
- Doesn't need allocation/deallocation anymore. It can live in the stack and be part of other classes.
- Because of that, it's methods are now `const` and the inner mutex is `mutable` so it can be easily used in `const` contexts.
- A no-op implementation is provided if `NO_THREADS` is defined. No more need to add `#ifdef NO_THREADS` just for this.
- `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`.
- Thread-safe utilities are therefore simpler now.
Misc.:
- `ScopedMutexLock` is dropped and replaced by `MutexLock`, because they were pretty much the same.
- Every case of lock, do-something, unlock is replaced by `MutexLock` (complex cases where it's not straightfoward are kept as as explicit lock and unlock).
- `ShaderRD` contained an `std::mutex`, which has been replaced by `Mutex`.
af9bb0ea15 fixed AudioServer's
`get_output_delay()` (which used to always return 0) while renaming it
to `get_output_latency()`. It now returns the latency from the
AudioDriver, which can be non-0.
While this was a clear bugfix, it broke playback for WebM files without
audio track. It seems like the playback code, even though it queried
the output delay to calculate a time compensation, was designed to work
even though the delay value was actually bogus. Now that it's correct,
it's not working.
As a workaround we comment out uses of the output latency, restoring
the behavior of Godot 3.1.
This code should still be reviewed by someone more versed in video
playback and fixed to properly account for the non-0 driver latency.
Fixes#35760.
Reverts the following commits:
- c81ec6f26d:
"Exposes capture methods to AudioServer, variable renames for
consistency, added documentation."
- 47c558b98a:
"Expose audio callbacks as signals."
- dabaa11b3c:
"Fix to make sure the capture buffers are deallocated at shutdown.
Silences warnings."
Some documentation improvements were kept for pre-existing methods.
See rationale for reverting these changes in #30468.
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.
Made AudioFrame and Vector2 equivalent for casting.
Added ability to obtain the playback object from stream players.
Added ability to obtain effect instance from audio server.
This allows more consistency in the manner we include core headers,
where previously there would be a mix of absolute, relative and
include path-dependent includes.
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.
