This is a pragmatic trick to avoid symbol collision where a project
links against SPIRV-Cross statically, while linking to other projects
which also use SPIRV-Cross statically. We can end up with very awkward
symbol collisions which can resolve themselves silently because
SPIRV-Cross is pulled in as necessary. To fix this, we must use
different symbols and embed two copies of SPIRV-Cross in this scenario,
now with different namespaces, which in turn leads to different symbols.
This adds a new C API for SPIRV-Cross which is intended to be stable,
both API and ABI wise.
The C++ API has been refactored a bit to make the C wrapper easier and
cleaner to write. Especially the vertex attribute / resource interfaces
for MSL has been rewritten to avoid taking mutable pointers into the
interface. This would be very annoying to wrap and it didn't fit well
with the rest of the C++ API to begin with. While doing this, I went
ahead and removed all the old deprecated interfaces.
The CMake build system has also seen an overhaul.
It is now possible to build static/shared/CLI separately with -D
options.
The shared library only exposes the C API, as it is the only ABI-stable
API. pkg-configs as well as CMake modules are exported and installed for
the shared library configuration.
Opt-in, since user need to know about a cbuffer.
Conflicts a bit with the GLSL option for base instance,
since that one is enabled by default, but the HLSL one isn't (because
user needs to know about a magic cbuffer, whereas GLSL can only get
default initialized uniform).
This is a fairly fundamental change on how IDs are handled.
It serves many purposes:
- Improve performance. We only need to iterate over IDs which are
relevant at any one time.
- Makes sure we iterate through IDs in SPIR-V module declaration order
rather than ID space. IDs don't have to be monotonically increasing,
which was an assumption SPIRV-Cross used to have. It has apparently
never been a problem until now.
- Support LUTs of structs. We do this by interleaving declaration of
constants and struct types in SPIR-V module order.
To support this, the ParsedIR interface needed to change slightly.
Before setting any ID with variant_set<T> we let ParsedIR know
that an ID with a specific type has been added. The surface for change
should be minimal.
ParsedIR will maintain a per-type list of IDs which the cross-compiler
will need to consider for later.
Instead of looping over ir.ids[] (which can be extremely large), we loop
over types now, using:
ir.for_each_typed_id<SPIRVariable>([&](uint32_t id, SPIRVariable &var) {
handle_variable(var);
});
Now we make sure that we're never looking at irrelevant types.
This is a large refactor which splits out the SPIR-V parser from
Compiler and moves it into its more appropriately named Parser module.
The Parser is responsible for building a ParsedIR structure which is
then consumed by one or more compilers.
Compiler can take a ParsedIR by value or move reference. This should
allow for optimal case for both multiple compilations and single
compilation scenarios.
- The HLSL compiler now has its own list of keywords in addition to
the ones from GLSL.
- Added "buffer", "precise", and "shared" to the GLSL keywords.
Replace with common/hlsl/msl instead. The old interface had some bad
interaction with overloading which meant you had to up-cast to base
class to be able to use set_options, which was awkward.
CompilerGLSL type_to_glsl() and image_type_glsl() functions support optional object ID.
Add SPIRType::Image::access member to support SPIR-V OpTypeImage access qualifier.
Remove SPIRType::Image::is_read and ::is_written members.
Use DecorationNonReadable and DecorationNonWritable to mark read/write access for image variables.
CompilerMSL emit access qualifiers per image variable, instead of per image type.
CompilerGLSL and CompilerHLSL behaviour is unchanged.
