[1:55:41][@printf_armin][Q: How would you go about exposing a very object-oriented :API to C without ending up in the disaster that DX12 did (with their C API[ref

site="Windows Dev Center"
|
|
page="Multi-engine n-body gravity simulation"
|
|
url=https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/desktop/direct3d12/multi-engine-n-body-gravity-simulation])? Especially if the API has something like a device for its central access point like this gives you queues and surfaces and buffers]
|
|
[2:00:22][@zrizi][Q: (Off-topic) Best way of moving data from disk to GPU: What I think I really want is to get a GPU mapped :memory chunk and map my asset file right over there (assuming I prepared the data to be GPU friendly). What I have right now is loading from disk into memory and then either doing glBufferSubData or glBufferMapView and copying the data. How can I avoid this copy?][:"file io" :hardware :rendering]
|
|
[2:12:33][@thebirkisreal][Q: Updated the dumpview "spec" a little.[ref
|
|
site=Pastebin
|
|
page="The even simpler dumping format"
|
|
url=https://pastebin.com/raw/Dz9gCpAa] Is this a little clearer about things? Also added some elements with a determined length]
|
|
[2:13:46][@quickshift_][Q: So OOP's fallacy is basically overusing inheritance?][:language]
|
|
[2:19:28][@zrizi][Q: Great answer. So is it possible to :memory map a file to GPU pinned memory for non texture data then? I think about a complex 3D model. Sounds like you can't avoid this memory copy. I agree that textures are trickier, especially if they are compressed already][:"file io" :hardware :rendering]
|
|
[2:23:57][@quickshift_][Q: The main thing I'm concerned with is, since I've never really programmed in OOP (got to know about [~hero Handmade Hero] early enough), I can't be sure if I'm sometimes transitioning into OOP accidentally. And it really bugs me, since you could say that "device" or "texture" structs are "objects" or something like that][:language]
|
|
[2:34:20][@zrizi][Q: In the OOP example that you gave, you assume that you have access to the source code. That might be the case in [~hero Handmade Hero] but if you're using a :library you sometimes don't have access to the cpp sources. Another reason to use unity build without libraries][:language]
|
|
[2:34:46][@skulboy_dota][Q: You are right that OOP is bad when every single field of a class has a getter / setter, however in general it is better to only have getters for most fields, making sure they can only be changed by the class itself. It's the same reason globals are generally to be avoided, state changing randomly makes code hard to follow][:language]
