Fixed and completed support for returning multiple values. This includes support for returning arrays, both fixed and dynamically sized. The way this is achieved is by storing an additional int value next to the dynamic parameter in the ParameterList stack which gets passed to the C function as an additional parameter. In the case of return parameters it is duty of the C function to set this int to the correct length value for the dynamic parameter (which makes sense). Note that for the dynamic output/return parameter it is assumed the function has allocated that memory (which gets freed automatically).
Also, I cleaned the makesrna's bridge function generation code a bit and renamed PROP_RETURN to PROP_OUTPUT, which represents better the reality now that there are multiple returns. The function now to mark multiple returns (outputs) is RNA_def_function_output.
For an example, look at Action.get_frame_range in rna_action_api.c, by the way Aligorith I removed the #ifdef for this function now that there's support for returning arrays, feel free to modify (the function seems to work).

matches the set that python operators themselves return. eg.
{'MODAL'} or... {'FINISHED'}

written from scratch by Daniel Salazar (zanqdo). added own modifications.
New property type
bpy.props.FloatVectorProperty(), only difference with float is it takes a 'size' argument and optional 'default' sequence of floats.
moved bpy.props.* functions out of bpy_rna.c into their own C file.
|
|
bpy.types.register(MacroClass)
instead of
bpy.ops.add_macro(MacroClass)
The rest is unchanged.
Also remove some now unused code for the old registration methods (there's still some remaining).

- use python malloc's in bpy_array.c
- automatically blending bone locations is disabled if the target bone has locked location
- neck had incorrect roll
|
|
Added a group example
C = bpy.context
ob = C.active_object
bpy.data.groups[0].objects.add(ob)
- add_to_group and rem_from_group now take optional scene and base flags and deal with updating the object & base flags
- operators that add objects to groups were setting ob->recalc= OB_RECALC_OB; looks like its not needed.
- previously add() ignored python args, now add and remove are called like any other FunctionRNA from python.
- made the pyrna api use tp_getset's for collestions active/add()/remove()

- python defined classes will be used when available (otherwise automaically generated metaclasses are made as before)
- use properties rather then functions for python defined rna class's
- call the classes getattr AFTER doing an RNA lookup, avoids setting and clearing exceptions for most attribute lookups, tested UI scripts are ~25% faster.
- extending rna py classes this way is a nicer alternative to modifying the generated metaclasses in place.
Example class
--- snip
class Object(bpy.types.ID):
def _get_children(self):
return [child for child in bpy.data.objects if child.parent == self]
children = property(_get_children)
--- snip
The C initialization function looks in bpy_types.py for classes matching RNA structure names, using them when available.
This means all objects in python will be instances of these classes.
Python properties/funcs defined in ID py class will also be available for subclasses for eg. (Group Mesh etc)

Multidim. arrays can now be modified at any level, for example:
struc.arrayprop = x
struc.arrayprop[i] = x
struc.arrayprop[i][j] = x
struc.arrayprop[i][j][k] = x
etc...
Approriate rvalue type/length checking is done.
To ensure all works correctly, I wrote automated tests in release/test/rna_array.py.
These tests cover: array/item access, assignment on different levels, tests that proper exceptions are thrown on invalid item access/assignment.
The tests use properties of the RNA Test struct defined in rna_test.c. This struct is only compiled when building with BF_UNIT_TEST=1 scons arg.
Currently unit tests are run manually by loading the script in the Text Editor.
Here's the output I have: http://www.pasteall.org/7644
Things to improve here:
- better exception messages when multidim. array assignment fails. Those we have currently are not very useful for multidim.
- add tests for slice assignment

Example code: http://www.pasteall.org/7332/c.
New API functions: http://www.pasteall.org/7330/c.
Maximum number of dimensions is currently limited to 3, but can be increased arbitrarily if needed.
What this means for ID property access:
* MeshFace.verts - dynamic array, size 3 or 4 depending on MFace.v4
* MeshTextureFace.uv - dynamic, 2-dimensional array, size depends on MFace.v4
* Object.matrix - 2-dimensional array
What this means for functions:
* more intuitive API possibility, for example:
Mesh.add_vertices([(x, y, z), (x, y, z), ...])
Mesh.add_faces([(1, 2, 3), (4, 5, 6), ...])
Python part is not complete yet, e.g. it is possible to:
MeshFace.verts = (1, 2, 3) # even if Mesh.verts is (1, 2, 3, 4) and vice-versa
MeshTextureFace.uv = [(0.0, 0.0)] * 4 # only if a corresponding MFace is a quad
but the following won't work:
MeshTextureFace.uv[3] = (0.0, 0.0) # setting uv[3] modifies MTFace.uv[1][0] instead of MTFace.uv[3]

possible from python, but it's still work in progress.
Pointers and collections are restricted to types derived from
IDPropertyGroup (same as for operators), because RNA knows how to
allocate/deallocate those.
Collections have .add() and .remove(number) functions that can be
used. The remove function should be fixed to take an other argument
than a number.
With the IDPropertyGroup restriction, pointers are more like nested
structs. They don't have add(), remove() yet, not sure where to put
them. Currently the pointer / nested struct is automatically allocated
in the get() function, this needs to be fixed, rule is that RNA get()
will not change any data for thread safety.
Also, it is only possible to add properties to structs after they have
been registered, which needs to be improved as well.
Example code:

- print an error if RNA Structs are freed with a python pointer set to help with debugging leaks.
- fix for unlikely eternal loop in unit conversion.
|

you can copy operator strings from buttons or the reporting interface and run them in the console.
- Ctrl+C over an operator button copies its python string to the clipboard.
- Paste in the console (1 line only for now).
- operators run from python no longer require all arguments.
|
|
calling rna functions with the wrong argument type would raise an error like..
expected a string type
Added an error prefix so now the message is..
TypeError: UILayout.item_enumO(): error with argument 3, "value" - expected a string type

Merging changes made by Arystanbek in the soc-2009-kazanbas branch,
plus some things modified and added by me.
* Operator exec is called execute in python now, due to conflicts
with python exec keyword.
* Operator invoke/execute now get context argument.
* Fix crash executing operators due to bpy_import_main_set not being
set with Main pointer.
* The bpy.props module now has the FloatProperty/IntProperty/
StringProperty/BoolProperty functions to define RNA properties for
operators.
* Operators now have an __operator__ property to get the actual RNA
operator pointers, this is only temporary though.
* bpy.ops.add now allows the operator to be already registered, it
will simply overwrite the existing one.
* Both the ui and io directories are now scanned and run on startup.

- Support for python to convert a PyObject into a collection (uses a list of dicts - quite verbose :/)
- Operators can now take collection args when called from python.
- Support for printing operators that use collections (macro recording).
- Added RNA_pointer_as_string which prints all pointer prop values as a python dict.
Example that can run in the in test.py (F7 key)
bpy.ops.VIEW3D_OT_select_lasso(path=[{"loc":(0, 0), "time":0}, {"loc":(1000, 0), "time":0}, {"loc":(1000, 1000), "time":0}], type='SELECT')
for some reason lasso locations always print as 0,0. Need to look into why this is.

The Python API to define Panels and Operators is based on subclassing,
this makes that system more generic, and based on RNA. Hopefully that
will make it easy to make various parts of Blender more extensible.
* The system simply uses RNA properties and functions and marks them
with REGISTER to make them part of the type registration process.
Additionally, the struct must provide a register/unregister callback
to create/free the PanelType or similar.
* From the python side there were some small changes, mainly that
registration now goes trough bpy.types.register instead of
bpy.ui.addPanel.
* Only Panels have been wrapped this way now. Check rna_ui.c to see
how this code works. There's still some rough edges and possibilities
to make it cleaner, though it works without any manual python code.
* Started some docs here:
http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/BlenderDev/Blender2.5/RNATypeRegistration
* Also changed some RNA_property and RNA_struct functions to not
require a PointerRNA anymore, where they were not required (which
is actually the cause of most changed files).

own pytype.
If printing PyTypes becomes important we can do it a different way which is still less then 10 lines.
|
|
Since adding a new type gives quite a lot of extra boiler plate functions.
Return PyCFunction's main disadvantage is it does not have a uniqie name when you print it.

which can be defined to call C functions with defined parameters.
* Parameters are RNA properties, with the same types.
* Parameters are stored in a ParameterList, which is like a small
stack with the values. This is then used to call the C function.
* Includes Python integration.
* Only one test function is part of this commit, ID.rename.
* Integration with the editors/ module is not included in this
commit, there's some issues to be worked out for that still.
|

at startup, which is slow and doesn't allow access to dynamically added types.
- bpy.types isnt a module anymore, defined as its own PyType, getattr looks up the rna collection each time.
- refcounting fixes
- fixe epydoc generation with undefined values

Support for subclassing blenders operator, to be registered as a new operator.
Still need to...
* add constants like Operator.FINISHED
* wrap context (with rna?)
* poll() cant work right now because there is no way to access the operatorType that holds the python class.
* Only float, int and bool properties can be added so far.
working example operator.

- rearranged modules bpyui -> bpy.ui, bpy -> bpy.data, remove bpydoc
- new module bpy.types, stores a list of all struct types
- added __rna__ attribute to types - eg bpy.types.World.__rna__ so you can access the rna data from a type. (so bpydoc.structs isnt needed anymore)
- removed unused subtyping method (use python subclassing rather then C PyTypeObject)
|

type, eventually allowing us to have python defined RNA classes in
python - lux/pov/renderman materials, lamps etc as well as operators.
At the moment there are 2 ways to do this, The first is like subclassing from python, another (disabled) method copies the base PyTypeObject struct
and makes some changes.
The PyType is stored in the RNA Struct for reuse, right now there are no access functions - needs to be improved.
Added a python script for printing all blend file data to the console which helps testing the api.
dir(rna) wont work for python 2.x now, use rna.__dir__() instead.

functions for C defined PyTypes (it seems).

This means you can define an operator in python that is called from C or Python - like any other operator.
Python functions for invoke and exec can be registered with an operator name.
keywords are read from the python exec() function, then used to create operator properties. The default python values are used to set the property type and defaults.
def exec(size=2.0, text="blah"): ...
is equivalent to...
prop = RNA_def_property(ot->srna, "size", PROP_FLOAT, PROP_NONE);
RNA_def_property_float_default(prop, 2.0f);
prop = RNA_def_property(ot->srna, "size", PROP_STRING, PROP_NONE);
RNA_def_property_string_default(prop, "blah");
TODO -
* make use of events
* return OPERATOR_CANCELLED/OPERATOR_FINISHED.. etc
* add support for array args
* more testing
|
|
this means it can reuse the function for converting python to RNA types - giving more useful errors.
* Incorrect enum args lists valid values in their exception message (used for PyRNA and PyOperators).
* remove bpy_idprop.c and bpy_idprop.h
PyOperators are not usable since they run outside the UI loop atm.

documentation available no matter what data is open in the current blend file, Directory type was also missing from the subtype enum causing the test rna-dump script to fail.
|

rna_actuator.c was missing an enum

* Matches the C/RNA api structure
* Thin wrapper ~(600 lines)
* No functions specific to any blender object type.
* Defines 2 types, BPy_StructRNA and BPy_PropertyRNA.
* Python 3.0 target (compatible with python 2.4,5,6)
* http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/BlenderDev/Blender2.5/PyRNA - continue docs/discussion here.
Todo
* Collection iterators
* Write access to data
* Define how constants should be accessed (as strings or some special type)
* Solve the "Python keeping invalid blender pointers" problem.
This cant just be solved in the py api - we need blender to notify when ID's are removed
Examples
Here are some examples that work with the current implementation of the api.
rna.lamps["Lamp.006"].energy -> (1.0)
rna.lamps["Lamp.007"].shadow -> ("NOSHADOW")
rna.materials.keys() -> ['flyingsquirrel_eye', 'frankie_skin', 'frankie_theeth']
rna.scenes["hud"].objects["num_text_p2_4"].data.novnormalflip -> False
rna.meshes["mymesh"].uv_layers.keys() -> ['UVTex', 'UVTex']
rna.meshes.items()
For a dump of yo-frankie level see - http://pasteall.org/3294/python
Notes
* Added python back, can only execute scripts from the command line with -P script.py
* bpy_interface.c is just enough functionality to run a python file.
