- move level of refinement / isolation into the Options structs
- fix splash damage in rest of the code
note 1: this is less than ideal, because most compilers accept the previous
call to these functions with an incorrect parameter list (ie. passing
the level instead of the struct issues no warnings and compiles...)
caveat emptor...
note 2: the level parameter names may not be final for adaptive modes
as we will likely want independent controls over crease vs.
extraordinary vertex isolation.
- don't rotate (s,t) coordinates but rotate the patch instead !
- refactor osd/cpuEvalLimitKernels to share Far::PatchTables cubic spline
interpolation functions : this replaces tensor product formulation with
weight matrices, which does not really impact performance here, but would
have to be replaced when implementing regular gridding functions.
- fix OsdCpuEvalLimitController to not rotate coordinates and pass the rotation bitfields
- expose Far::PatchTables spline interpolation API (protected -> public)
- fix glEvalLimit tangent buffers (remove empty padding - see below)
- change policy for tangent buffers : the output buffer descriptor is
**NO LONGER APPLIED** to tangent output buffers. Tangent primvar data
buffers are no longer applying the offset and stride from the descriptor
(because it doesn't make sense to share it). If more flexiblity is
required, we will consider adding independent descriptors for the tangent
buffers. This change will impact existing code that generates tangents
with the EvalLimit controller.
fixes#370
- change topology refiner to check for edge sharpnesses when selecting faces for isolation
- add face-aggregator for edge tags to Vtr::Level
- fix logic in Far::PatchTablesFactory to correctly tag single-crease patches along infinitely sharp edges
note : this fix is a bit of a cludge - barfowl confirms that the vertex crease tags (VTags) are intended to
carry neighborhood information, which they currently do not. we will revisit this shortly and fix the tags,
which will allow us to simplify the traversal logic when isolating topology features.
fixes#369
Const' declared instances of Vtr::Array do not protect the pointer held
privately by the class properly. In order to force the compiler to
protect this pointer, we removed all non-const accessors from Vtr::Array
(now renamed Vtr::ConstArray) and moved them to a child class (Vtr::Array),
which requires const_cast<> operators internally to allow access.
The change & renaming is then propagated to all internal dependencies.
- VVarBoundaryInterpolation is now VtxBoundaryInterpolation
- enum prefix change from VVAR to VTX
- generel cleanup / doxyfication
- update of beta / release notes
- make sure we don't get conflicting enums (CODE_ERROR)
- fix template specialization for Far::TopologyRefinerFactory in regression/common/vtr_utils
- fix remaining error reporting code around osd
- change error codes from situational to general (fatal / coding / run-time...)
- pull error functions from Osd into Far
- add a templated topology validation reporting system to Far::TopologyRefinerFactory
- fix fallout on rest of code-base
- split Far::PatchDescriptor into its own class (mirrors Far::PatchParam)
- hide PatchArray as a private internal structure
- add public accessors patterned after Far::TopologyRefiner (returning Vtr::Arrays)
- propagate new API to all dependent code
note: some direct table accessors have not been removed *yet* - see code for details
- adding support for StencilTables creation from a Gregory basis
- fix a bug in the prot-stencil allocator (slow memory pool was not being cleared properly)
- adaptive mode: remove faces tagged as holes from the selection of faces to isolate
- uniform mode: faces tagged as holes are still included in the refinement process,
however they are removed from patch tables
- future improvements: add a 'selective refinement' code path separate from 'uniform refinement'
to handle this case without un-necessary subdivision work.
- re-implement the pool allocator
- use templates to remove code redundancy between regular & limit stencils
- leverage [] operator overloading to simplify stencil factorization
- add the ability to treat subdivision levels independently (see below)
- refactor Far::TopologyRefiner::Interpolate<>() methods to pass buffers by reference
(allows overloading of [] operator)
- rename some of the stencil factory options
- propagate changes to Osd / examples / tutorials...
Catmull-Clark Subdivision Surfaces", Niessner et al, Eurographics 2012.
This change includes;
-topology identification for single-crease patch during adaptive refinement.
-patch array population (similar to boundary)
-sharpness buffer generation
-glsl shader
Eval stuffs will be coming.
Make the sample locations dynamic by adding a velocity vector. Face boundary
crossing is handled using the new ptex adjacency functionality recently
added to the Far::TopologyRefiner.
- added an option to Far::StencilTablesFactory to generate stencils for
coarse control vertices
- refactored interpolation code out into Far::PatchTables
- corrected tangent interpolation
- code cleanup & comments
