Restored possibility to have out-of-line implementation of DynamicCast() and STANDART_TYPE():
- Macro STANDARD_TYPE() now resolves to function get_type_descriptor() of the class
- Macro DEFINE_STANDARD_RTTI is replaced by two variants:
- DEFINE_STANDARD_RTTI_INLINE works as before, defining DynamicCast() and get_type_descriptor() as inline functions
- DEFINE_STANDARD_RTTIEXT declares DynamicCast() and get_type_descriptor() as exported
- Macro IMPLEMENT_STANDARD_RTTIEXT provides definition of DynamicCast() and get_type_descriptor() for a class
Upgrade script amended to replace DEFINE_STANDARD_RTTI by pair of DEFINE_STANDARD_RTTIEXT / IMPLEMENT_STANDARD_RTTIEXT if source file with the same name as header is found in the same folder, and by DEFINE_STANDARD_RTTI_INLINE if either source is not found or class is defined in the source (i.e. not in header)
Upgrade tool improved to recognize include statements with path prefix, like #include <occt/gp_Pnt.hxx>
Code corrected to eliminate warnings reported by upgrade tool.
Template of CXX file for testing upgrade tool added.
Documentation of upgrade procedure updated.
Macro defining Handle class is replaced by template class implementing the same concept (defined in Standard_Handle.hxx and Standard_Transient.hxx), opencascade::handle<>.
Header file Standard_DefineHandle.hxx becomes deprecated: the only useful macro DEFINE_STANDARD_RTTI is defined now in Standard_Type.hxx. Standard_DefineHandle.hxx is kept for compatibility, it defines macros previously used for definition of Handles and RTTI as empty. Macro DEFINE_STANDARD_HANDLE(C1,C2) is also kept for compatibility; now it expands to typedef "Handle_C1" to corresponding handle class.
Definitions of macro Handle() and STANDARD_TYPE() moved from Standard_Macro.hxx to Standard_Handle.hxx (new file) and Standard_Type.hxx, respectively.
New template class NCollection_Shared added, allowing to define sub-class manipulated by handle, for any non-transient class.
Adaptations for compiling with GCC 4.7
Global static functions instantiating RTTI descriptors for class types (used though STANDARD_TYPE macro) are replaced by template static method Instance() of the class Standard_Type.
Implementation of RTTI is revised accordingly (global registry of type descriptors added to ensure single instance of each type descriptor shared by all dynamic libraries).
Obsolete methods of Standard_Type class (IsInstance(), Ancestors()) are removed; new method Parent() is added returning type descriptor of the parent class.
Class Standard_AncestorIterator is removed; this iteration can be easily done by recursive calls to Standard_Type::Parent().
Definition of macro STANDARD_TYPE() moved from Standard_Macro.hxx to Standard_DefineHandle.hxx.
Inclusion of Standard_Type.hxx and the class header is now necessary for use of method DownCast() and function STANDARD_TYPE() for the class.
In general, Standard_Type.hxx should be included now instead of Standard_DefineHandle.hxx in places where these macros are used.
Macro DEFINE_STANDARD_EXCEPTION changed to define all methods inline; macro IMPLEMENT_STANDARD_EXCEPTION becomes obsolete.
Macros IMPLEMENT_DOWNCAST, IMPLEMENT_STANDARD_* become deprecated, they are still defined (as empty) for compatibility.
Implementation of Handle classes became fully inline.
Method get() is added in Handle classes returning pointer to the contained object.
RTTI removed from NCollection_Handle class.
Standard_Persistent is made empty descendant of Standard_Transient, instead of implementing its own hierarchy with reference counting.
Unused enumerations Standard_InternalType, Standard_WayOfLife, Standard_KindOfType are removed.
Global function HashCode() accepting Handle(Standard_Transient) is removed; HashCode() for Standard_CString with length should be used instead.
DRAW command dtryload is added for testing dynamic load / unload of the specified library.
New test perf fclasses bug24947 uses this command to measure performance of multiple (1000 times) loading / unloading OCCT libs on example of TKSTEP.
License statement text corrected; compiler warnings caused by Bison 2.41 disabled for MSVC; a few other compiler warnings on 54-bit Windows eliminated by appropriate type cast
Wrong license statements corrected in several files.
Copyright and license statements added in XSD and GLSL files.
Copyright year updated in some files.
Obsolete documentation files removed from DrawResources.
