Avoids potentially performing multiple reallocations (depending on the
size of the input data) by reserving the necessary amount of memory
ahead of time.
This is trivially doable, so there's no harm in it.
These can be generified together by using a concept type to designate
them. This also has the benefit of not making copies of potentially very
large arrays.
This is performing more work than would otherwise be necessary during
VMManager's destruction. All we actually want to occur in this scenario
is for any allocated memory to be freed, which will happen automatically
as the VMManager instance goes out of scope.
Anything else being done is simply unnecessary work.
Given we don't currently implement the personal heap yet, the existing
memory querying functions are essentially doing what the memory querying
types introduced in 6.0.0 do.
So, we can build the necessary machinery over the top of those and just
use them as part of info types.
Analysis passes do not have a good reason to depend on shader_ir.h to
work on top of nodes. This splits node-related declarations to their own
file and leaves the IR in shader_ir.h
To prepare for translation support, this makes all of the widgets
cognizant of the language change event that occurs whenever
installTranslator() is called and automatically retranslates their text
where necessary.
This is important as calling the backing UI's retranslateUi() is often
not enough, particularly in cases where we add our own strings that
aren't controlled by it. In that case we need to manually refresh the
strings ourselves.
Instead of having a vector of unique_ptr stored in a vector and
returning star pointers to this, use shared_ptr. While changing
initialization code, move it to a separate file when possible.
This is a first step to allow code analysis and node generation beyond
the ShaderIR class.
Enforces the use of the proper URL resolution functions. e.g.
url = some_local_path_string;
should actually be:
url = QUrl::fromLocalPath(some_local_path_string);
etc.
This makes it harder to cause bugs when operating with both strings and
URLs at the same time.
Other overloads of start() are considerably much safer to use if we ever
need this in the future and need to pass arguments to the program, given
it contains separate parameters for the program path and the arguments
themselves, whereas this unsafe overload contains both as a single
string.
Given the alternatives are much safer, we can disable this.
