The `max_execution_duration` feature is pretty much useless on desktop,
and breaks slow SWFs by aborting script execution instead of letting
it continue.
All NavigatorBackend implementations have been refactored, resulting in
improved code quality, less duplicated code, more consistent and easier
to understand procedures, additional error handling and better error
messages.
A resolve_url method has been added to the NavigatorBackend trait. It
takes a URL and and resolves it to the actual URL from which a file can
be fetched (including handling of relative links and pre-processing). It
has been implemented in each NavigatorBackend implementation.
Duplicated code has been put into new public functions in
core/src/backend/navigator.rs which are called by all NavigatorBackend
implementations.
ExternalNavigatorBackend:
- The navigate_to_url and fetch methods have been adapted to use
resolve_url, removing redundant code.
- Error handling has been added in case that the URL can't be converted
to a PathBuf.
- A TODO about differences between the flash player fetch and the
Ruffle fetch implementation has been added.
WebNavigatorBackend:
- The previous resolve_url method exclusively to the WebNavigatorBackend
has been replaced by the new resolve_url method. It is used by
navigate_to_url and fetch.
- resolve_url now always pre-processes the URL if it's valid (even if no
base_url exists) and explicitly returns whether the URL can be parsed.
- navigate_to_url now traces an explanatory error each if the URL can't
be parsed or is local.
- fetch now returns an explanatory error each if the URL can't be parsed
or is local (previously, a vague "Got JS error" has been returned).
TestNavigatorBackend & NullNavigatorBackend:
- fetch pre-processes the URL now (using the resolve_url implementation).
- If the URL isn't local, an explanatory error is returned (previously,
it was just an "Invalid URL" error).
- If the URL can't be parsed, an explanatory error with the reason is
returned (previously, it was just an "Invalid URL" error).
Additionally, error messages in all NavigatorBackend implementations
have been improved and made more consistent, e.g. if a local file can't
be read.
A load_error_swf function has been added to the Loader. It makes the
MovieClip enter the error state in which some attributes have certain
error values to signal that no valid file could be loaded. This happens
if no file could be loaded or if the loaded content is no valid
supported content.
The function creates an error state movie stub using the new
SwfMovie::error_movie function (which uses a new default_error_header
function) and configures remaining variables with the
movie_not_available method.
One TODO in order for the error state to be completely implemented has
been added.
Since the error state of the MovieClip includes the final URL of the SWF
file obtained after any redirects, the load_error_swf and
movie_loader_error functions (now) take an swf_url attribute.
To get this URL in case no file could be loaded, the
NavigatorBackend::fetch method has been changed to return an
ErrorResponse struct (including the url and the actual error) in the
error case. The Response struct returned in the success case has been
renamed to SuccessResponse.
All fetch implementations have been adapted accordingly. Code has been
adjusted to return the actual error where that's needed.
Documentation has been added and improved.
When using a 'Loader', properties on the 'contentLoaderInfo' become
set during specific events in the load sequence. In particular,
'LoaderInfo.bytesTotal' becomes available during the first 'progress'
event.
Also, 'LoaderInfo.parameters' is now properly set from the URL query
parameters. In Flash player, this work even with filesystem urls
(e.g. 'file:///some/path/to/file.txt?paramOne=valOne' will load
a file named 'file.txt', setting and expose the parameter 'paramOne'
with value 'valOne' in `LoaderInfo.parameters`). This required some
cleanup to the desktop and test NavigatorBackend impls to strip
out query parameters when loading a parameter from disk.
Previously, we would set `SwfMovie.parameters` manually from the url.
Now, the various `SwfMovie` constructors automatically extract
query parameters from the provided url. Outside of `SwfMovie`,
we only append *extra* parameters (e.g. those set from `flashvars`).
This makes CPMStar ads work, since the loaded SWF needs to access
`LoaderInfo.parameters`
* wpgu: Initial implementation of PixelBender shader execution
The implementation is split across four crates:
* `ruffle_render` now holds the main PixelBender bytecode parsing
implementation (previously, this was in `ruffle_core`).
* `ruffle_core` holds some helper functions for converting between
AVM2 `Value`s and the PixelBender vector types.
* `naga-pixelbender` (newly created) constructs a Naga `Module`
from parsed PixelBender bytecode
* `ruffle_render_wgpu` sets up the render pipeline for the shader
constructed by `naga-pixelbender`, and actually executes the shader.
The Actionscript-side shader parameters are passed in through uniforms.
This allows us to cache the compiled `naga::Module` and associated
wgpu types inside `ShaderData`, when it's first created. Each invocation
of a `ShaderJob` only needs to create a bind group and render pass.
Limitations:
* Only a few of the PixelBender opcodes are implemented - however, this is
enough to get Stemlands cannon rotation working, as well as a cool
"donut" shader that I found and included as a test.
* PixelBender matrix types are not supported.
* Only BitmapData is supported as an input/output type - Flash Player
also supports using Vector and ByteArray
* ShaderJob execution is always synchronous.
* Adjust comments
* Address review comments
