My earlier change which simplified the categorization of
patch types broke evaluation for boundary and corner patches.
Previously, boundary and corner patches were always rotated
into a canoncial orientation by permuting the point indices
of the patch. This was convenient in some cases, but generally
made things unecessarily complicated, since the parameterization
of the patch had to be counter-rotated to compensate.
Now patches always remain correctly oriented with respect
to the underlying surface topology and evaluation of boundary
and corner patches is accommodated by simply adjusting the
spline weights to account for the missing/invalid patch
points along boundary and corner edges.
There is more to clean up and optimize, but this restores
correct behavior.
- rename "Regular end cap" to "BSplineBasis end cap"
- revert templating and add EndCapType into PatchTablesFactory::Options.
- make EndCapFactories internal in PatchTablesFactory.
- move end cap stencils into PatchTables, keep them relative to the max level.
- add a utility StencilTablesFactory::AppendEndCapStencilTables to splice and factorize endcap stencil tables.
This change moves all gregory patch generation from Far::PatchTablesFactory
so that we can construct patch tables without stencil tables as well as client
can chose any end patch strategies (we have 3 options for now: legacy 2.x style
gregory patch, gregory basis patch and experimental regular patch approximation).
Also Far::EndCapGregoryBasisPatchFactory provides index mapping from patch index
to vtr face index, which can be used for single gregory patch evaluation on top
of refined points, without involving heavier stencil tables generation.
PatchTablesFactory fills 20 indices topology into patchtable, and use it for eval and draw.
note: currently screen-space adaptive tessellation of gregory basis patches is
broken and cracks appear around them.
- extend Far::PatchTables data structures & interfaces to store requisite
information for channels of face-varying bi-cubic patches
- implement gather function in Far::PatchTablesFactory to populate face-varying
channels with adaptive patches
- extend accessor interface in Vtr::Level
- propagate code fall-out throughout OpenSubdiv code base, examples & tutorials
- extend vtrViewer code to visualize tessellated bi-cubic face-varying patches
- move patch interpolation code out of Far::PatchTables into far/interpolate
- add bilinear quad interpolation function with derivatives
- switch OsdCpuEvalLimitController to far/interpolate
- add support for bilinear quad interpolation & clean varying interpolation
- 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
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.
- 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 functionality to Far::PatchTablesFactory to generate topology indices
for Gregory basis end-caps (identify and index vertices along basis shared
edges)
- code is currently #ifdef'ed out until further work can be done to bring the
feature along all the way through to Osd::Draw
- 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.
- 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
Sync'ing the 'dev' branch with the 'feature_3.0dev' branch at commit 68c6d11fc36761ae1a5e6cdc3457be16f2e9704a
The branch 'feature_3.0dev' is now locked and preserved for historical purposes.
minor code cleanups:
- change Descriptor::iterator to use a static vector instead of overly complicated logic
- change the private factory PatchType struct for better readability
- variable name changes

These functions are exclusive to uniformly subdivided topology. With the recent refactoring
of PatchTables and the generalization of topology, uniform meshes only retain the topology
of the highest level of subdivision by default. These functions are now fixed to reflect the
change.
- remove PatchMap from FarPatchTables
- add a new FarPatchMap quad-tree class (constructed from FarPatchTables)
- refactor the EvalLimitController to use the quad-tree search instead of a
serial loop access
fixes#174
- trivial return if Gregory specific patch data is set
- or iterate through the patch-arrays until an adaptive patch is found (REGULAR,...,GREGORY_BOUNDARY)
fixes#173
