This reverts most of the recent changes to the
organization of Far::PatchParam. In particular,
the core parameterization is no longer exposed
as a speparate PatchParamBase class.
We'll revisit this again in a later release, but
for now we will stick with a more straight
forward implementation.
Updated Far::PatchTableFactory to be able to populate patches
for smooth evaluation of face-varying data channels.
- Moved computePatchTag() method to BuilderContext
- Added computeFVarPatchTag() method to BuilderContext
- Use Vtr::Level::VSpan to represent the partial ring
around vertices for face-varying patches.
- Added the option generateFVarLinearPatches (defaults
to true) to support the legacy behavior of generating
linear patches for face-varying data channels regardless
of the underlying face-varying linear interpolation modes.
In order to support a consistent API for refinement and
evaluation of varying primvar data, Far::PatchTable needs
to provide indices for varying data. This adds support to
Far::PatchTableFactory for generating these indices.
This change updates Far::PatchTable to include support for
evaluating varying and face-varying data on patches.
This adds to existing API and follows the existing patterns
used for vertex patches.
This includes data and methods to evaluate varying and
face-varying basis functions as well as methods to compute
local point values for varying and face-varying primvar data.
This is the foundation for updating Far::PatchTableFactory
to generate bicubic patches for face-varying channels.
We'll restore this code and finish it up for the next release.
For now, removing this code restores parity with the 3.0 beta,
i.e. face-varying patches are always all bilinear.
There's a lot of good foundational work here to eventually support
smooth interpolation of face-varying patches. Unfortunately, this
is not quite ready to release. Therefore, we've decided to defer this
feature until a later release.
This change hides this code behind the FAR_FVAR_SMOOTH_PATCH macro.
Now the channel specifier is the last parameter in a method's
parameter list with a default of 0. This is consistent with the
topological face-varying queries and also simplifies the common
case of just a single face-varying channel.
To encapsulate endcap functions from public API, add methods to
tell the number of patch points needed (GetNumLocalPoints()) and
to compute those patch points as a result of change of basis from
the refined vertices (ComputeLocalPointValues()).
ComputeLocalPointValues takes contiguous source data of all levels
including level0 control vertices.
