- conversion from pointer to bool now counts as ''narrowing conversion''
- constructor names must not include template arguments (enforced with C++20)
- better use std::array for some dummy test code
Several further warnings are due to known obsoleted or questionable constructs
and were left as-is (e.g. for ScopedHolder) or just commented for later referral
* Lumiera source code always was copyrighted by individual contributors
* there is no entity "Lumiera.org" which holds any copyrights
* Lumiera source code is provided under the GPL Version 2+
== Explanations ==
Lumiera as a whole is distributed under Copyleft, GNU General Public License Version 2 or above.
For this to become legally effective, the ''File COPYING in the root directory is sufficient.''
The licensing header in each file is not strictly necessary, yet considered good practice;
attaching a licence notice increases the likeliness that this information is retained
in case someone extracts individual code files. However, it is not by the presence of some
text, that legally binding licensing terms become effective; rather the fact matters that a
given piece of code was provably copyrighted and published under a license. Even reformatting
the code, renaming some variables or deleting parts of the code will not alter this legal
situation, but rather creates a derivative work, which is likewise covered by the GPL!
The most relevant information in the file header is the notice regarding the
time of the first individual copyright claim. By virtue of this initial copyright,
the first author is entitled to choose the terms of licensing. All further
modifications are permitted and covered by the License. The specific wording
or format of the copyright header is not legally relevant, as long as the
intention to publish under the GPL remains clear. The extended wording was
based on a recommendation by the FSF. It can be shortened, because the full terms
of the license are provided alongside the distribution, in the file COPYING.
* most usages are drop-in replacements
* occasionally the other convenience functions can be used
* verify call-paths from core code to identify usages
* ensure reseeding for all tests involving some kind of randomness...
__Note__: some tests were not yet converted,
since their usage of randomness is actually not thread-safe.
This problem existed previously, since also `rand()` is not thread safe,
albeit in most cases it is possible to ignore this problem, as
''garbled internal state'' is also somehow „random“
after completing the recent clean-up and refactoring work,
the monad based framework for recursive tree expansion
can be abandoned and retracted.
This approach from functional programming leads to code,
which is ''cool to write'' yet ''hard to understand.''
A second design attempt was based on the pipeline and decorator pattern
and integrates the monadic expansion as a special case, used here to
discover the prerequisites for a render job. This turned out to be
more effective and prolific and became standard for several exploring
and backtracking algorithms in Lumiera.
`steam/engine/mock-dispatcher.hpp |cpp` now integrates this
''complete mock setup for render jobs and frame dispatching.''
The exising `DummyJob` has been slightly adapted and renamed
to `MockJob` and is tightly integrated with the other mocks.
The implementation of a `MockDispatcher` necessitated to change
the use of `MockJobTicket`. The initial attempts used a complete
mock implementation, but this approach turned out not to be viable.
Instead — based on the ideas developed for the mock setup —
now the prospective real implementation of `JobTicket` is available
and will be used by the mock setup too. Instead of a synthetic spec,
now a setup of recursively connected `ExitNode`(s) is used; the latter
seems to develop into some kind of Facade for the render node network.
Based on this mock setup, we can now demonstrate the (mostly) complete
Job-Planning pipeline, starting from a segmentation up to render jobs,
and verify proper connectivity and job invocation.
