2015-03-27	Compositor: Improve reports to the interface about what's going on	Sergey Sharybin
	The functionality was got lost when new compositor system was landed and it wasn't always clear what's causing the hicucps. Now it's nicely reported to the stats line.
2014-04-15	Structural cleanup and improvements for the compositor.	Lukas Tönne
	Many parts of the compositor are unnecessarily complicated. This patch aims at reducing the complexity of writing nodes and making the code more transparent. == Separating Nodes and Operations == Currently these are both mixed in the same graph, even though they have very different purposes and are used at distinct stages in the compositing process. The patch introduces dedicated graph classes for nodes and for operations. This removes the need for a lot of special case checks (isOperation etc.) and explicit type casts. It simplifies the code since it becomes clear at every stage what type of node we are dealing with. The compiler can use static typing to avoid common bugs from mixing up these types and fewer runtime sanity checks are needed. == Simplified Node Conversion == Converting nodes to operations was previously based on "relinking", i.e. nodes would start with by mirroring links in the Blender DNA node trees, then add operations and redirect these links to them. This was very hard to follow in many cases and required a lot of attention to avoid invalid states. Now there is a helper class called the NodeConverter, which is passed to nodes and implements a much simpler API for this process. Nodes can add operations and explicit connections as before, but defining "external" links to the inputs/outputs of the original node now uses mapping instead of directly modifying link data. Input data (node graph) and result (operations graph) are cleanly separated. == Removed Redundant Data Structures == A few redundant data structures have been removed, notably the SocketConnection. These are only needed temporarily during graph construction. For executing the compositor operations it is perfectly sufficient to store only the direct input link pointers. A common pointer indirection is avoided this way (which might also give a little performance improvement). == Avoid virtual recursive functions == Recursive virtual functions are evil. They are very hard to follow during debugging. At least in the parts this patch is concerned with these functions have been replaced by a non-virtual recursive core function (which might then call virtual non-recursive functions if needed). See for example NodeOperationBuilder::group_operations.
2013-09-13	Cleanup and improvements of the compositor debug output.	Lukas Toenne
	Debug code for graphviz output moved to a dedicated file COM_Debug.h/cpp. The DebugInfo class has only static functions, which are called from a number of places to keep track of what is happening in the compositor. If debugging is disabled these are just inline stubs, so we don't need #ifdefs everywhere and don't get any overhead. The graphviz output is much more useful now. DebugInfo keeps track of node names in a static string map for meaningful names. It uses a number of colors for various special operation classes. ExecutionGroups are indicated in graphviz with clusters. Currently the graphviz .dot files are stored in the BLI_temporary_dir() folder. A separate dot file is generated for each stage of the ExecutionGroup scheduling, this is intended to give some idea of the compositor progress, but could still be improved.
2013-03-20	When using border rendering, use the same border for compositor	Sergey Sharybin
	This makes compositing as fast as it's possible in this case. The only thing is border render+crop will still give funcy results. This is the next thing to be solved in compositor.
2013-03-13	Report timing compositor statistics when running in background mode.	Sergey Sharybin
	This would help figuring out time spent on compositing, helpful for render farms.
2013-03-12	Print compositor execution statistics when in background mode	Sergey Sharybin
	This will print memory usage, mapped memory usage, memory peak, compositing tree name and number of finished tiles to stdout when blender is rendering in background mode. This makes compositor a less blackbox and should help trouble shooting issues happening during 4K ToS project.
2013-03-07	Border for compositor viewer node feature	Sergey Sharybin
	This adds border option to compositor, which affects on a backdrop and viewer nodes, which is useful for faster previews and tweaks. Final compositing still happens for the whole frame, but if it'll be needed it's not so difficult to support it as well. To use border there's Ctrl-B shortcut in the compositor editor, which i used to define region you want to restrict compositing to. There's also "Viewer Border" option in the N-panel in case you'll want to disable border compositing. Some areas could be cleaned a bit, like ideally it shall not be viewer image clearing in viewer_border_update RNA callback, but currently it's not so much clear how to make it the same fast as simple memset and glue it somehow to compositor. Will think of nicer solution a bit later.
2012-11-28	typo's and some style cleanup, also added asserts into BLI_vsnprintf and ↵	Campbell Barton
	BLI_sprintfN when invalid args are given.
2012-08-10	use define for bokeh blur size, also define size of determineResolution args.	Campbell Barton

2012-08-03	style cleanup: compositor	Campbell Barton

2012-07-17	code cleanup: spelling	Campbell Barton

2012-06-26	rename remaining class members with m_ prefix.	Campbell Barton

2012-06-25	optionally use guarded alloc for tiles compositor, also replace allocation ↵	Campbell Barton
	functions with a macro.
2012-06-14	stule cleanup: node headers	Campbell Barton

2012-06-13	* optimized threading	Jeroen Bakker
	* break out with glare node * Added OpenCL kernels compatible with AMD still need some testing.
2012-06-08	* Added OpenCL kernel for bokeh blur	Jeroen Bakker
	* Uncomment COM_OPENCL_ENABLED from COM_defines.h to test
2012-06-01	Replaced tile based memory manager with a single aligned buffer	Monique Dewanchand
	- should increase speed with large node setups - enables caching of buffers in the node editor (in the future) - OpenCL part still needs some work
2012-05-18	style cleanup: compositor, pointer syntax, function brace placement, line length	Campbell Barton
