Static JNI lookups were causing issues with multiple libraries.
We now do the lookups when we need them as they are effectively
just hashmap lookups and we do them only in places where the
work we need to perform will be much larger than a simple hash
map lookup anyway.
This chane also manually registers filament-utils JNI bindings
to get rid of unnecessary symboles. We should do the same for
other Filament libraries (the symbols are pretty long and
we now have many of them).
* Add support for screen-space contact shadows
This CL adds support and always enables it.
toggles and setting in the next CL (same PR).
* Plumb settings for screen-space contact shadows
screen-space contact shadows is handled like a shadow option,
parameters (including on/off) are set in the LightManager, using
the existing ShadowOptions API.
Additionally there is a per-renderable toggle.
Both toggles are off by default.
* Allow contact shadows when shadowing is auto-disabled
Shadowing can be auto-disabled when for instance there are no
shadow casters in the scene. We still allow contact shadows in
that case.
This would allow for instance, to make the vegetation on a terrain
not shadow-casting, and still get some shadowing there by using
contact shadows instead.
* apply micro-shadowing after contact shadows
also, don't compute contact shadows when we know we're fully shadowed.
Replace with forward declarations if needed and includes in .cpp that
now need them.
The idea here is to have our headers have the least amount of impact as
possible on our clients (e.g. compilation time).
This works by aliasing CUSTOM0 - CUSTOM7 to morphing attributes, and by
extending our existing skinning variant.
This PR was tested against some upcoming changes to gltfio.
Issue #1149, #1417
Discussed this feature with Mathias, we decided to create
MaterialInstance Java wrappers on the fly, and create Material Java
wrappers lazily. This is simple and avoids caching the wrapper objects,
which might otherwise lead to complexity and bugs.
Note that gltfio creates material instances behind the scenes, so this
feature is particularly useful for gltfio clients.
No need for a proper library, this is just a common location to simplify
JNI bindings in other projects like filamat and gltfio.
There is no need to move the one Java source file (`NioUtils.java`)
since downstream libraries will have a dependency on Filament, and
FindClass should work fine.
