* The CATMARK_QUAD_FACE_VERTEX kernel calculates the face-vertex for a quadrilateral face. It applies to every face after the first subdivision step, and may be applied for the first subdivision step of a quadrilateral coarse mesh.
* The CATMARK_TRI_QUAD_FACE_VERTEX kernel calculates the face-vertex for a triangle or quadrilateral face. It may be applied for the first subdivision step of a coarse mesh composed of triangles and/or quadrilaterals.
* Both kernels calculate each face-vertex using four vertex indices (triangles are specified by repeating the third index). Therefore neither kernel uses the F_ITa codex table, and instead the first vertex offset in the F_IT index table is stored in the FarKernelBatch's table offset.
If the system has CLEW installed (which is detected by recently
added FindCLEW routines) then OpenSubduv would be compiled against
this library.
It makes binaries and libraries more portable across the systems,
so it's possible to run the same binary on systems with and without
OpenCL SDK installed.
The most annoying part of the change is updating examples to load
OpenCL libraries, but ideally code around controllers and interface
creation is to be de-duplicated anyway.
Based on the pull request #303 from Martijn Berger
- Some missing includes of <algorithms> in order to have
stdd::min() and similar functions.
- Need to cast numIndices and numNVerts to int explicitly
in order to solve warning treated as an error about
precision loss.
- Can't do vector[0] for an empty vector, it'll generate
a runtime range check error.
- MSVC only works fine with make_pair(foo, bar) syntax,
without explicit template substitution here. Otherwise
weird 'can't cast int to int&&' errors are happening.
- It used to create _computeContext twice.
- Ownership of refiner didn't set properly, because
Initialize() forces evaluator to drop ownership.
So now ownership sets after initialization from
topology.
Moved transient states (current vertex buffer etc) to controller.
ComputeContext becomes constant so that it's well suited for coarse-grain
parallelism on cpu.
Client-facing API has changed slightly - limitEval example has been adjusted
- fix some variable names (private vs. public)
- implement constructors to guarantee initialized pointers (d'oh)
- add a 'Reset' method to unbind buffers
Note: while the new contexts have been cleaned up, we now have a fair amount of duplicated code in the controllers...

Useful for cases when some parts of the pipeline needs to know the
topology object. Simply helps saving memory so topology from the
evaluatgor can be re-used for stuff like HbrMesh creation.
This way external application might check whether it need to
re-create evaluator from scratch or it might re-use existing
one without storing extra data from it's side.
TODO: Tags are still not accessible via C-API, it's marked as
to be solved later when it becomes more clear what is the best
way to expose them and when there'll be a real application to
test the tags.
All kernels take offset/length/stride to apply subdivision partially in each vertex elements.
Also the offset can be used for client-based VBO aggregation, without modifying index buffers.
This is useful for topology sharing, in conjunction with glDrawElementsBaseVertex etc.
However, gregory patch shader fetches vertex buffer via texture buffer, which index should also
be offsetted too. Although gl_BaseVertexARB extension should be able to do that job, it's a
relatively new extension. So we use OsdBaseVertex() call to mitigate the compatibility
issue as clients can provide it in their way at least for the time being.
