So files created by the new double precision serialization of Bullet 2.82 cannot be read by old Bullet versions,
but double precision serialized file generated by older Bullet versions can be read by Bullet 2.82 or newer.
changes are backwards compatible (btBulletWorldImporter can load old .bullet files)
but not forwards compatible (constraints in new .bullet files are ignored/unrecognized by old Bullet SDK)
This commit is for Issue 734. Some more work needs to be done for btGImpactMeshShapeDoubleData and thus btStridingMeshInterfaceDoubleData and btMeshPartDoubleData
warmstarting for contact points was broken, fix in btPersistentManifold
enable split impulse by default (at the cost of some performance)
add the option for zero-length friction (instead of recomputing friction directions using btPlaneSpace), use the solver mode flag SOLVER_ALLOW_ZERO_LENGTH_FRICTION_DIRECTIONS
precompute lateral friction directions (in btManifoldResult)
remove the mConstraintRow[3] from btManifoldPoint, it just took a lot of memory with no benefits: fixed it in btParallelConstraintSolver
For OSX:
cd build
./premake_osx xcode4
for iOS:
cd build
./ios_build.sh
./ios_run.sh
Also integrated the branches/StackAllocation to make it easier to multi-thread collision detection in the near future. It avoids changing the btCollisionObject while performing collision detection.
As this is a large patch, some stuff might be temporarily broken, I'll keep an eye out on issues.
Tweak the BenchmarkDemo a bit:
1) disable deactivation in graphical mode
2) add some settings that increase performance in the BenchmarkDemo2 (1000 stack) from 35ms to 15ms on this quad core (at the cost of a bit of quality)
virtual void btTypedConstraint::setParam(int num, btScalar value, int axis = -1) = 0;
virtual btScalar btTypedConstraint::getParam(int num, int axis = -1) const = 0;
Parameter can be BT_CONSTRAINT_ERP,BT_CONSTRAINT_STOP_ERP,BT_CONSTRAINT_CFM,BT_CONSTRAINT_STOP_CFM
Axis is 0 .. 5, first 3 for linear degrees of freedom, last 3 for angular. If no axis is specified it will take the 'default' degree of freedom. For a btHingeConstraint this would be the hinge axis (5)
(no motor support or advanced settings yet)
added btStaticPlaneShape serialization
Added toggle in cmake for BenchmarksDemo to enable/disable graphics rendering
Also comment-out some code for __SPU__ to reduce code size
Added btContactConstraint (only used on PS3 SPU right now, better to use btPersistentManifold directly for contact constraints)
Improved readblend utility library (see also usage in http://gamekit.googlecode.com with Irrlicht)
Fix for btConvexConvexAlgorithm, potential division by zero

1) Add fast branchless SIMD support for constraint solver (Windows only until we get other contributions).
See resolveSingleConstraintRowGenericSIMD in Bullet/src/BulletDynamics/ConstraintSolver/btSequentialImpulseConstraintSolver.cpp
resolveSingleConstraintRowGenericSIMD can be used for all constraints, including contact, point 2 point, hinge, generic etc.
2) During this refactoring, all constraints support the obsolete 'solveConstraintObsolete' while we add 'getInfo1' and 'getInfo2' support.
This interface is almost identical interface to Open Dynamics Engine, to make it easier to port Dantzig LCP solver.
3) Some minor refactoring to reduce huge constructor overhead in math classes.
Disable libxml LIBXML_MODULE_EXTENSION
Fixed include path in btConeTwistConstraint (it should be relative to src folder, not using ../../ )
Thanks to ejtttje, http://code.google.com/p/bullet/issues/detail?id=129
improved hinge constraint: adds limits
added btAtan2Fast
quaternion helper functions
