* Convert all code to use new functions.
* Branch maintainers may want to skip this commit, and run this
conversion script instead, if they use a lot of math functions
in new code:

Renamed BevPoint's members
* x,y,z -> vec[3]; compatible with other functions.
* f1 -> split_tag; used by displist to set the splitting flag.
* f2 -> dupe_tag; used in curve.c to remove duplicates.
BevList
* flag -> dupe_nr; was being used as a counter for duplicate points.
* use arithb.c functions where possible.
* arrays for coords, tilt and radius were being allocated, then copied into the BevPoint's, now write directly into the values without allocing/freeing arrays.

- 1st stage: Linear Workflow
This implements automatic linear workflow in Blender's renderer. With the
new Colour Management option on in the Render buttons, all inputs to the
renderer and compositor are converted to linear colour space before
rendering, and gamma corrected afterwards. In essence, this makes all
manual gamma correction with nodes, etc unnecessary, since it's done
automatically through the pipeline.
It's all explained much better in the notes/doc here, so please have a look:
http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/Dev:Source/Blender/Architecture/Colour_Management
And an example of the sort of difference it makes:
http://mke3.net/blender/devel/rendering/b25_colormanagement_test01.jpg
This also enables Colour Management in the default B.blend, and changes the
default lamp falloff to inverse square, which is more correct, and much
easier to use now it's all gamma corrected properly.
Next step is to look into profiles/soft proofing for the compositor.
Thanks to brecht for reviewing and fixing some oversights!

Enable with WITH_LCMS (options have been added for scons).
lcms is very common on linux package managers, so no need to add in extern (IMHO). Libs for windows can be added to /lib
Code is mostly a proof of concept with hardcoded path for icc profile (taken from the lcms test suite).
Adding this now to svn so it doesn't rot on my hard drive. People interested in pushing it forward should feel free to dig in the code or poke me about it.

This unifies all usage of FTOCHAR, putting it in utildefines.h
Submitter did several interesting tests for speed, check it here:

the features that are needed to run the game. Compile tested with
scons, make, but not cmake, that seems to have an issue not related
to these changes. The changes include:
* GLSL support in the viewport and game engine, enable in the game
menu in textured draw mode.
* Synced and merged part of the duplicated blender and gameengine/
gameplayer drawing code.
* Further refactoring of game engine drawing code, especially mesh
storage changed a lot.
* Optimizations in game engine armatures to avoid recomputations.
* A python function to get the framerate estimate in game.
* An option take object color into account in materials.
* An option to restrict shadow casters to a lamp's layers.
* Increase from 10 to 18 texture slots for materials, lamps, word.
An extra texture slot shows up once the last slot is used.
* Memory limit for undo, not enabled by default yet because it
needs the .B.blend to be changed.
* Multiple undo for image painting.
* An offset for dupligroups, so not all objects in a group have to
be at the origin.

on with maximum values greater than 1.

Node curves maintain handles status (normal, auto, vector) even after adding
a control point now. This makes the behavior the same as in case of removing a control
point. Previously the status of handles was reseted.

This adds some new lamp attenuation options to the Lamp panel, replacing the old 'Quad' button. Yes, the panel layout is still nasty here, but I've ignored it for now to address properly in the panels cleanup work.
* Constant
http://mke3.net/blender/devel/rendering/falloff-constant.jpg
Lamp doesn't decay with distance
* Inverse Linear
http://mke3.net/blender/devel/rendering/falloff-invlinear.jpg
Default, and same as in older Blender without 'Quad' on. Decays linearly, with 'Dist' value as the lamp's half-energy-distance
* Inverse Square
http://mke3.net/blender/devel/rendering/falloff-invsquare.jpg
A sharper, more realistic decay, good for most electric lights (i.e. not sunlight). This is similar to the old Quad option with slight changes.
* Lin/Quad weighted
Exactly the same as in older Blenders with the old 'Quad' button enabled. When this setting is chosen, two sliders are shown, 'Linear' and 'Quad' (previously Quad1 and Quad2), which controls the 'linearness' or 'quadraticness' of the falloff curve. Lamps in old files with the 'Quad' button on will be initialised to this setting.
But much better for precise control over the lamp falloff now is:
* Custom Curve
This shows an extra 'Falloff Curve' panel, where you can use the standard Blender curve UI control to precisely control how the light falls off. The Y axis is intensity, and the X axis is distance, stretched over the length of the 'Dist' value.
Some example curves and renders:

Curves widget: using "clipping" option didn't work well when dragging
multiple points. Now it clips based on entire selection.
|
|
Please read:
http://www.blender3d.org/cms/Imaging.834.0.html
Or in short:
- adding MultiLayer Image support
- recoded entire Image API
- better integration of movie/sequence Images
Was a whole load of work... went down for a week to do this. So, will need
a lot of testing! Will be in irc all evening.

Especially for Compositing it was annoying that colors always got clipped
in the 0.0-1.0 range. For this reason, extrapolated Curves now is the
default. Old saved files still have horizontal extrapolation.
Set the option with 'Tools' menu (wrench icon). This is a setting per
curve, so you might need to set all 4 curves for an RGBA curves widget.

module itself, replacing the special MEM_mallocT/MEM_freeT functions.
Mutex locking is only enabled when threads are running.
There was no good reason to have these separate, it just led to ugly
hacks when calling functions with non-threadsafe malloc from threads.
|
|
Curves Widget: The endpoint condition for calculating the interpolation
had an error, moving too quickly to a constant value (for extending).
|
|
The curves tool didn't extend after last point correctly, in linux/windows.
Stupid bug found by Joeedh. thanks!

- a Group has Curve node inside
- this Group was re-used more times
- with threaded render activated
- and both groups executed on same time
Then the premultipy optimize table was created twice... causing memory
to confuse.

with SHIFT+G. This works as well for local groups as library-linked
groups.
Also fixed that group nodes were copying internal data to the outside,
which made it impossible to use the socket-buttons to set individual
values for each group-instance.
Library-linked groups are prevented from editing. But, try to open a
group and it will give a request for 'make local'. The make local rule
is identical to other library data in blender, meaning:
- if all users of the library data are local -> the library data is
flagged 'local', and if needed a unique name is made
- if there's mixed users (local and from other library data) it makes
a full copy, and assigns this copy to all local users.

a function (static vars) itself, causing mixups of curve data on usage.

- Curves in Image window didn't copy alpha (when no 32 bits rect for
display was made already).
- Code was missing to validate grouped nodes in Compositor, didnt work
at all yet
- Loading new Images in a Node (using filewindow) didn't assign the image
Image window now displays Alpha for float images too
|
|
- Image curves are only applied now when curves panel is in use. Closing
the panel will disable curves, reopen Panel enable curves.
You can minimize the Curves panel to keep it active. That latter then
works as visualization curves are being applied.
- Compositor output now also uses Image window curves, if active.

A full detailed description of this will be done later... is several days
of work. Here's a summary:
Render:
- Full cleanup of render code, removing *all* globals and bad level calls
all over blender. Render module is now not called abusive anymore
- API-fied calls to rendering
- Full recode of internal render pipeline. Is now rendering tiles by
default, prepared for much smarter 'bucket' render later.
- Each thread now can render a full part
- Renders were tested with 4 threads, goes fine, apart from some lookup
tables in softshadow and AO still
- Rendering is prepared to do multiple layers and passes
- No single 32 bits trick in render code anymore, all 100% floats now.
Writing images/movies
- moved writing images to blender kernel (bye bye 'schrijfplaatje'!)
- made a new Movie handle system, also in kernel. This will enable much
easier use of movies in Blender
PreviewRender:
- Using new render API, previewrender (in buttons) now uses regular render
code to generate images.
- new datafile 'preview.blend.c' has the preview scenes in it
- previews get rendered in exact displayed size (1 pixel = 1 pixel)
3D Preview render
- new; press Pkey in 3d window, for a panel that continuously renders
(pkey is for games, i know... but we dont do that in orange now!)
- this render works nearly identical to buttons-preview render, so it stops
rendering on any event (mouse, keyboard, etc)
- on moving/scaling the panel, the render code doesn't recreate all geometry
- same for shifting/panning view
- all other operations (now) regenerate the full render database still.
- this is WIP... but big fun, especially for simple scenes!
Compositor
- Using same node system as now in use for shaders, you can composit images
- works pretty straightforward... needs much more options/tools and integration
with rendering still
- is not threaded yet, nor is so smart to only recalculate changes... will be
done soon!
- the "Render Result" node will get all layers/passes as output sockets
- The "Output" node renders to a builtin image, which you can view in the Image
window. (yes, output nodes to render-result, and to files, is on the list!)
The Bad News
- "Unified Render" is removed. It might come back in some stage, but this
system should be built from scratch. I can't really understand this code...
I expect it is not much needed, especially with advanced layer/passes
control
- Panorama render, Field render, Motion blur, is not coded yet... (I had to
recode every single feature in render, so...!)
- Lens Flare is also not back... needs total revision, might become composit
effect though (using zbuffer for visibility)
- Part render is gone! (well, thats obvious, its default now).
- The render window is only restored with limited functionality... I am going
to check first the option to render to a Image window, so Blender can become
a true single-window application. :)
For example, the 'Spare render buffer' (jkey) doesnt work.
- Render with border, now default creates a smaller image
- No zbuffers are written yet... on the todo!
- Scons files and MSVC will need work to get compiling again
OK... thats what I can quickly recall. Now go compiling!
|
|
- cleanup of color curves code; goes at least twice faster now!
(includes black/white point stuff)
- When using 'Curves' in image window on a byte rect, it creates a (temp)
float rect to operate on. So curves work for regular pictures too now.
|
|
- EXR now saves and reads Zbuffers correctly
- EXR reading didn't set alpha to 1 yet when no alpha buffer was present
- ImageWindow: the "black point" only checked for the r value... now is OK
- ImageWindow: Curves panal has button "reset"
- ImageWindow: hold LMB drag shows rgba and z values. With SHIFT or CTRL it
applies black/white point whilte dragging too
- ImageWindow: saving file copied the entire buffer... removed that. Also
made the header print clear; this save only saves in own file type.
- Curves: zoom and drag now gets clamped by the Clipping value
- Imbuf: duplicate buffer only copied one quarter of to new buffer

Image as loaded in Blender (from openexr.com):
http://www.blender.org/bf/exrcurve1.jpg
Image with different white point:
http://www.blender.org/bf/exrcurve2.jpg
Image with white and black point and a curve:
http://www.blender.org/bf/exrcurve3.jpg
Use SHIFT+click to set the black point, and CTRL+click for white point.
The buttons in the panel work too, of course.
The curves work after the black/white range was corrected, so you can
stick to curves with a normal 0-1 range.
There's also now a general color curve, marked with 'C' button.
Note; this currently only maps the float colors to a visible 8 bits per
channel rect. You can save it, but when the blender file loads the curve
or mapping is not executed until you click in the curves... have to look
at that still.
Speed for this is also quite unoptimized... still WIP, but fun!

- New UI element: the "Curve Button".
For mapping ranges (like 0 - 1) to another range, the curve button can be
used for proportional falloff, bone influences, painting density, etc.
Most evident use is of course to map RGB color with curves.
To be able to use it, you have to allocate a CurveMapping struct and pass
this on to the button. The CurveMapping API is in the new C file
blenkernel/intern/colortools.c
It's as simple as calling:
curvemap= curvemapping_add(3, 0, 0, 1, 1)
Which will create 3 curves, and sets a default 0-1 range. The current code
only supports up to 4 curves maximum per mapping struct.
The CurveMap button in Blender than handles allmost all editing.
Evaluating a single channel:
float newvalue= curvemapping_evaluateF(curvemap, 0, oldval);
Where the second argument is the channel index, here 0-1-2 are possible.
Or mapping a vector:
curvemapping_evaluate3F(curvemap, newvec, oldvec);
Optimized versions for byte or short mapping is possible too, not done yet.
In butspace.c I've added a template wrapper for buttons around the curve, to
reveil settings or show tools; check this screenie:
http://www.blender.org/bf/curves.jpg
- Buttons R, G, B: select channel
- icons + and -: zoom in, out
- icon 'wrench': menu with tools, like clear curve, set handle type
- icon 'clipping': menu with clip values, and to dis/enable clipping
- icon 'x': delete selection
In the curve button itself, only LMB clicks are handled (like all UI elements
in Blender).
- click on point: select
- shift+click on point: swap select
- click on point + drag: select point (if not selected) and move it
- click outside point + drag: translate view
- CTRL+click: add new point
- hold SHIFT while dragging to snap to grid
(Yes I know... either one of these can be Blender compliant, not both!)
- if you drag a point exactly on top of another, it merges them
Other fixes:
- Icons now draw using "Safe RasterPos", so they align with pixel boundary.
the old code made ints from the raster pos coordinate, which doesn't work
well for zoom in/out situations
- bug in Node editing: buttons could not get freed, causing in memory error
prints at end of a Blender session. That one was a very simple, but nasty
error causing me all evening last night to find!
(Hint; check diff of editnode.c, where uiDoButtons is called)
Last note: this adds 3 new files in our tree, I did scons, but not MSVC!
