matdbg
- Materials are now sorted by name and the sha id is hidden.
- PostProcess materials now separated from Surface materials.
- PostProcess details now hide the non-existing properties.
- Larger default pane size for the material list.
- Use nicer font.
matinfo
- Print out the Material Domain.
filament
- get*Slow methods in FMaterial are now private.
This performs surgical modification of the IFF chunks rather than
invoking filamat from within matdbg. Low-level direct manipulation
(bypassing optimization passes etc) allows us to diagnose issues with
the shading pipeline.
This CL also adds keystroke bindings to the Monaco editor. You can
press Cmd+S to rebuild the current materials, or use Ctrl+Arrow to
navigate between shader variants and materials.
In a subsequent CL I will add a README that describes how this works in
detail, it will include a list of limitations and a feature wishlist.
matdbg is now linked into the Filament Engine in debug config (allowing
live inspection of GLSL / SPIRV) and into the matinfo tool (to support
the --web-server option).
In both cases, the library spins up a small web server that listens to
http://localhost:8080. You can run any Filament app and attach to it.
The web client caches all material information. This allows the user to
close an atttached Filament app, and the web app will continue to
function properly (useful for crash diagnosis). Moreover the user can
launch a second Filament app and the web client will add its materials
to the existing list (useful when comparing two Filament apps).
For now this only supports inspection, not editing. Some of the material
info such as required attributes is not yet displayed but this will be
easy to flesh out in a subsequent PR.
