Fixed a performance problem in the Visual Studio extension where no importer or processor was selected for an asset.
Fixed that the asset names for Uri encoded in the build output.
Fixed that errors when serializing assets get logged.
Sped up ImporterManager.GuessImporterByFileExtension, which caused performance problems if many assemblies are loaded into the current AppDomain.
Made the AssimpImporter library deploy the binary files again (hopefully just a temporary solution until we've found a better way.)
Provide a extension for TargetPlatform enum for getting the DisplayName of an entry.
Changed that ProcessorManager.GetProcessorDisplayName doesn't throw an exception if no processor with the given name exists, which now mimicks the same behavior as in importerManager.GetImporterDisplayName.
Replaced the old VS templates with ones that offer more flexiblity.
Started replacing the Content Project for the samples with our custom project type.
Inlcuded a basic not yet working AssimpImporter.
- Build system optimizations
- Extended ProjectConverter: DX and SharpDX assemblies are now removed from linux projects to prevent errors
- Fixed a bunch of compiler warnings
- Removed DX11MetroShaderGenerator assembly. It is now included in ANX.Framework.Content.Pipeline
- Removed HLSLParser assembly. It is now included in ANX.Framework.Content.Pipeline.
- Removed shader parser from GL3-RenderSystem. It is now included in ANX.Framework.Content.Pipeline.
- Removed RenderSystem dependencies from StockShaderCodeGenerator (sscg) tool
- Implemented important features of the FontDescriptionImporter. Importer works now, but still needs some (optional) features
- Fixed some bugs in the FontDescriptionProcessor. Building now works to the point where the ContentCompiler wants a generic writer instance
- Corrected private setter in FontDescription. If the importer can not set that value, its pretty useless.
- Implemented more of the FontDescriptionImporter. Can not progress further, because it seems there is no manged solution of getting a font's characters
- added missing copyright texts and regions FontDescriptionImporter.cs and FontDescriptionProcessor.cs
- extended ContentImporter to provide OutputType of imported content
- provided a list of available ContentProcessors in current context
PlatformSystems are no longer AddIns. This doesn't mean, that you can't load them dynamically. The handling is just different. There's only a single PlatformSystem available for each platform ANX runs on. This one is auto loaded. If it doesn't exist the game doesn't run. The reason for this is, that we will move the AddIn system from ANX.Framework to the specialized PlatformSystem. This is necessary because we want ANX.Framework to become platform independent. The AddIn system is different for some platforms (Android, iOS, Windows 8 Metro) and needs to be specialized. On the other hand we are able to simplify the AddIn system when moving it to the PlatformSystem because we don't need a big AddIn system supporting all platforms with much conditional compiling.
THIS COMMIT DOES BREAK SOME FUNCTIONALITY. METRO DOESN'T WORK ANYMORE, AS IT IS NOT TESTED. DON'T USE THIS COMMIT IF YOU ARE NO ANX.FRAMEWORK DEVELOPER. We will catch up soon with a tested and working version.
