Warnings issued by gcc 8.1.0 are eliminated.
New Standard_WarningDisableFunctionCast.hxx header file is introduced to disable GCC warning "-Wcast-function-type" in those files *.cxx where it is issued. This warning is issued when the conversion from the pointer to one function type to the pointer to another function type takes places, it was added in gcc 8.1.0.
The function MyVISEDG in SWDRAW_ShapeAnalysis.cxx is removed as it does not seem to do anything useful and relevant DRAW command K_VISEDG is never used in tests.
OpenGL rendering is now done into sRGB framebuffer.
OpenGl_ShaderManager::prepareStdProgramFboBlit() has been extended
by programs resolving MSAA texture and applying gamma correction as fallbacks.
Quantity_Color definition has been modified to store RGB components
in linear color space within Quantity_TOC_RGB type.
Standard colors defined by Quantity_NameOfColor enumeration has been updated accordingly.
New Quantity_TOC_sRGB type has been introduced to handle RGB components in non-linear sRGB color space.
OpenGl_TextureFormat class definition has been moved to dedicated files.
New method OpenGl_TextureFormat::FindFormat() replaces OpenGl_Texture::GetDataFormat().
New method OpenGl_TextureFormat::FindSizedFormat() replaces OpenGl_FrameBuffer::getColorDataFormat()
and OpenGl_FrameBuffer::getDepthDataFormat().
Graphic3d_TextureRoot::IsColorMap() - introduced new property defining
if RGB(A)8 image formats should be loaded as sRGB(A) textures or as data RGB(A) textures.
OpenGl_Texture initialization methods have been extended with new theIsColorMap argument.
vreadpixel - added argument -sRGB printing color in sRGB color space.
Test cases have been updated to new sRGB rendered results.
V3d_Viewer::AddZLayer() has been replaced by
V3d_Viewer::InsertLayerBefore() and V3d_Viewer::InsertLayerAfter() methods
allowing to specify Layer settings and index of existing layer to insert new one before/after.
The behavior of V3d_Viewer::AddZLayer() has been adjusted to append
new Layer before Graphic3d_ZLayerId_Top
(between Graphic3d_ZLayerId_Default and Graphic3d_ZLayerId_Top).
Graphic3d_Layer now provides LayerId() property.
Graphic3d_ZLayerSettings has been extended with IsRaytracable() property;
Ray-Tracing now processes multiple layers instead of Graphic3d_ZLayerId_Default.
Moved some methods from OpenGl_View to the base class Graphic3d_CView.
D3DHost_FrameBuffer::BindBuffer() now implicitly detaches Depth+Stencil texture in case of driver failure.
D3DHost_View::d3dCreateRenderTarget() now does not request Depth+Stencil texture by default.
D3DHost_FrameBuffer now provides fallback code copying OpenGL FBO content into D3D surface (slow).
OpenGl_FrameBuffer::BufferDump() - FBO dump implementation has been moved from OpenGl_Workspace::BufferDump().
DeviceLost flag has been moved from Graphic3d_GraphicDriver to Graphic3d_StructureManager,
so that all Viewers sharing the same Driver instance are properly invalidated.
Fixed clearing of objects by vclear command in case of multiple Viewers.
Weighted, Blended Order-Independent Transparency algorithm has been added rasterization pipeline.
In contrast to classical blending transparency it makes transparent objects look independent
from point of view. It also gives better depth occlusion when being used together with a weight factor
based on value of a GL depth buffer. The feature supports desktop OpenGL, OpenGL ES 3.0, ANGLE
and can be used together with MSAA on desktop GL.
To be used it require availability of:
1) Shaders pipeline.
2) Floating point color format for framebuffer (GL_ARB_color_buffer_float).
3) Multiple render targets (GL_ARB_draw_buffers).
Patch does not modify API and does not require application porting.
It adds new rendering options to Graphic3d_RenderingParams structure:
a) Transparency method from enumeration.
b) Scalar factor [0-1] controlling influence of a fragment's depth to its visibility.
Patch also simplifies processing of transparent objects for standard method:
rendering priority of transparent graphical structures is managed automatically,
therefore there is no need to care about it at application's side.
Expose interface of OpenGl_View (OpenGL graphics rendering methods) to client code
and collecting all high-level API methods of application views in V3d_View class.
1) Exposing interface of OpenGl_View:
The OpenGl_View inherits from new class Graphic3d_CView.
Graphic3d_CView is an interface class that declares abstract methods for managing displayed structures,
display properties and a base layer code that implements computation
and management of HLR (or more broadly speaking view-depended) structures.
In new implementation it takes place of eliminated Visual3d_View.
As before the instance of Graphic3d_CView is still completely managed by V3d_View classes.
It can be accessed through V3d_View interface but normally this should not be required as all its methods are completely wrapped.
In more details, a concrete specialization of Graphic3d_CView is created and returned by graphical driver on request.
Right after creation the views is directly used for setting rendering properties and adding graphical structures to be displayed.
The rendering of graphics is possible after mapping a window and activating the view.
The direct setting of properties makes obsolete usage of intermediate structures with display parameter
like Visual3d_ContextView and etc (the whole package of Visual3d become redundant).
2) Collecting all high-level API methods of application views in V3d package:
The patch includes elimination of Visual3d layer.
All of its methods that could be previously used by application are now exposed and should be accessed on the level of V3d entities.
- Introduced new class Graphic3d_CView.
This is a base class for render views.
Made possible to specialize concrete instances of the class by graphical driver.
- Moved all methods managing rendering views into interface of Graphic3d_CView.
The corresponding methods were removed from interface of graphical driver.
3) Eliminated Visual3d package:
- Logic of managing display of structures was put from Visual3d_ViewManager into Graphic3d_StructureManager.
- Removed Visual3d_View class. Logic of managing computed structures was put into base layer of Graphi3d_CView.
- Removed all intermediate structures for storing view parameters e.g. Visual3d_ContextView.
All settings are kept by instances of Graphic3d_CView
- Removed Visual3d_Light intermediate class.
All light properties are still stored in Graphic3d_CLight structure.
The structure is directly access by instance of V3d_Light classes.
- Moved all needed enumerations into Graphic3d package.
4) Update package D3DHost to new changes.
5) Update code of OCCT samples to new changes.
Classes Aspect_Clayer2d,OpenGl_GrahpicDriver_Layer, Visual3d_Layer, Visual3d_LayerItem, V3d_LayerMgr, V3d_LayerMgrPointer were deleted. Method OpenGl_GraphicDriver::TextSize() was moved to OpenGl_GraphicDriver.cxx.
Update V3d/FILES
Documentation updated.
