This allows removing it from `class_db.h`, significantly reducing the amount of files
that include it transitively.
Also includes some include cleanup in `control.h` and `rich_text_label.h` done while
ensure they don't depend on `callable_mp`.
A number of headers in the codebase included `rendering_server.h` just for
some enum definitions. This means that any change to `rendering_server.h` or
one of its dependencies would trigger a massive incremental rebuild.
With this change, we decouple a number of classes from `rendering_server.h`,
greatly speeding up incremental rebuilds for that area.
On my machine, this reduces incremental compilation time after an edit of
`rendering_server.h` by 60s (from 2m57s).
* This notification makes node children management very inefficient.
* Replaced by a NOTIFICATION_CHILDREN_CHANGED (and children_changed signal).
* Changed Canvas code (and similar) to use the above signal, to perform more efficiently.
This PR breaks compatibility (although this notification was very rarely used, even within the engine), but provides an alternate way to do the same.
It is required for the changes in #75627 to be entirely effective.
As many open source projects have started doing it, we're removing the
current year from the copyright notice, so that we don't need to bump
it every year.
It seems like only the first year of publication is technically
relevant for copyright notices, and even that seems to be something
that many companies stopped listing altogether (in a version controlled
codebase, the commits are a much better source of date of publication
than a hardcoded copyright statement).
We also now list Godot Engine contributors first as we're collectively
the current maintainers of the project, and we clarify that the
"exclusive" copyright of the co-founders covers the timespan before
opensourcing (their further contributions are included as part of Godot
Engine contributors).
Also fixed "cf." Frenchism - it's meant as "refer to / see".
Replace all TODO uses of `#warning` by proper TODO comments, and will open
matching bug reports to keep track of them.
We don't have a great track record fixing TODOs, but I'd wager we're even
worse for fixing these "TODO #warning" so we should prohibit this usage.
Affects a lot of classes. Very thoroughly checked signal connections and deferred calls to this method, add_do_method/add_undo_method calls, and so on.
Also renames the internal `_update_callback()` to `_redraw_callback()` for consistency.
Just a few comments have also been changed to say "redraw".
In CPUParticles2D, there was a private variable with the same name. It has been renamed to `do_redraw`.
* Replace case-by-case extraction with PNAME & GNAME
* Fix group handling when group hint begins with property name
* Exclude properties that are PROPERTY_USAGE_NO_EDITOR
* Extract missing ADD_ARRAY*, ADD_SUBGROUP* macros
* Added a new macro SNAME() that constructs and caches a local stringname.
* Subsequent usages use the cached version.
* Since these use a global static variable, a second refcounter of static usages need to be kept for cleanup time.
* Replaced all theme usages by this new macro.
* Replace all signal emission usages by this new macro.
* Replace all call_deferred usages by this new macro.
This is part of ongoing work to optimize GUI and the editor.
