A fileIO plugin can override custom file IO operations. As a small test, load files from a zipfile in memory.
Default fileIO implementation is in examples/Utils/b3BulletDefaultFileIO.h
Affects URDF, SDF, MJCF, Wavefront OBJ, STL, DAE, images.
Apply clang-format-all.sh using the _clang-format file through all the cpp/.h files.
make sure not to apply it to certain serialization structures, since some parser expects the * as part of the name, instead of type.
This commit contains no other changes aside from adding and applying clang-format-all.sh
Implement collisionFilterPlugin, use setCollisionFilterPair to enable or disable collision detection between specific pairs of objects.
Also, expose setCollisionFilterGroupMask as PyBullet API and in urdf using the tag <collision group="1" mask="2"/>.
See examples/pybullet/examples/collisionFilter.py for an example.
PyBullet default: Lower the warmstarting factor, for maximal coordinates rigid bodies for more stable simulation.
Add btCollisionWorld::refreshBroadphaseProxy to easier recreate the broadphase proxy without adding/removing objects to the world.
Extract faces directly from btConvexHullComputer (in initializePolyhedralFeatures), instead of reconstructing them, thanks to Josh Klint in #1654
PyBullet: use initializePolyhedralFeatures for convex hulls and boxes (to allow SAT)
PyBullet: expose setPhysicsEngineParameter(enableSAT=0 or 1) to enable Separating Axis Test based collision detection for convex vs convex/box and convex versus concave triangles (in a triangle mesh).
See https://github.com/erwincoumans/pybullet_robots ANYmal.py for an example.
PyBullet: Expose p.setPhysicsEngineParameter(solverResidualThreshold=1e-2) (b3PhysicsParamSetSolverResidualThreshold), increases solver performance a lot
PyBullet: Expose p.setPhysicsEngineParameter(contactSlop) Set it to zero, to avoid issues with restitution.
PyBullet: Expose isNumpyEnabled, return True is PyBullet was compiled with NUMPY support for 'getCameraImage'.
PyBullet: Expose p.ChangeDynamics(objectUid, linkIndex, contactProcessingThreshold), to avoid issues of speculative/predictive contacts with restitution.

data\toys\concave_box.cdf was generated from concave_box.obj using
//GenerateSDF.exe -r "32 32 32" -d "-1.6 -1.6 -.6 1.6 1.6 .6" concave_box.obj
//SDF is based on code from DiscreGrid, https://github.com/InteractiveComputerGraphics/Discregrid
(due to local convex-triangle collisions causing opposite contact normals, use the pre-computed edge normal)
PyBullet: expose experimental continuous collision detection for maximal coordinate rigid bodies, to prevent tunneling.
