- Removed `UnicodeAt`
- Removed `EndsWith`
- Removed `LPad` and `RPad`
- Deprecated `BeginsWith` in favor of `string.StartsWith`
- Deprecated `LStrip` and `RStrip` in favor of `string.TrimStart` and `string.TrimEnd`
- Remove `VariantSpanDisposer`, no need to dispose of the Variant Spans
since we are now borrowing the Variants instead of copying them.
- Remove `VariantSpanExtensions.Cleared` that was only used so the
Span was initialized for `VariantSpanDisposer` to know what to dispose.
- Fix stackalloc Spans to use constant VarArgsSpanThreshold
and avoid bound checks.
- Replaced `MD5Buffer`, `MD5Text`, `SHA256Buffer` and `SHA256Text` implementation to use the `System.Security.Cryptography` classes and avoid marshaling.
- Added `SHA1Buffer` and `SHA1Text`.
- Renamed `ToUTF8` to `ToUTF8Buffer`.
- Renamed `ToAscii` to `ToASCIIBuffer`.
- Added `ToUTF16Buffer` and `ToUTF32Buffer`.
- Added `GetStringFromUTF16` and `GetStringFromUTF32`.
- Renamed `IsValidInteger` to `IsValidInt`.
- Added `IsValidFileName`.
- Added `IsValidHexNumber`.
- Added support for IPv6 to `IsValidIPAddress`.
- Added `ValidateNodeName`.
- Updated the documentation of the `IsValid*` methods.
- Moved `GetBaseName` to keep methods alphabetically sorted.
- Removed `Length`, users should just use the Length property.
- Removed `Insert`, string already has a method with the same signature that takes precedence.
- Removed `Erase`.
- Removed `ToLower` and `ToUpper`, string already has methods with the same signature that take precedence.
- Removed `FindLast` in favor of `RFind`.
- Replaced `RFind` and `RFindN` implemenation with a ca ll to `string.LastIndexOf` to avoid marshaling.
- Added `LPad` and `RPad`.
- Added `StripEscapes`.
- Replaced `LStrip` and `RStrip` implementation with a call to `string.TrimStart` and `string.TrimEnd`.
- Added `TrimPrefix` and `TrimSuffix`.
- Renamed `OrdAt` to `UnicodeAt`.
- Added `CountN` and move the `caseSensitive` parameter of `Count` to the end.
- Added `Indent` and `Dedent`.
Embree initially only supported x86_64, then got arm64 support added.
Now it seems to be possible to build it with Emscripten (wasm32) and
on x86_32 Windows.
These callbacks are used for marshaling by callables and generic Godot
collections.
C# generics don't support specialization the way C++ templates do.
I knew NativeAOT could optimize away many type checks when the types
are known at compile time, but I didn't trust the JIT would do as good
a job, so I initially went with cached function pointers.
Well, it turns out the JIT is also very good at optimizing in this
scenario, so I'm changing the methods to do the conversion directly,
rather than returning a function pointer for the conversion.
The methods were moved to `VariantUtils`, and were renamed from
`GetFromVariantCallback/GetToVariantCallback` to `ConvertTo/CreateFrom`.
The new implementation looks like it goes through many `if` checks
at runtime to find the right branch for the type, but in practice it
works pretty much like template specialization. The JIT only generates
code for the relevant branch. Together with inlining, the result is
very close or the same as doing the conversion manually:
```cs
godot_variant variant;
int foo = variant.Int;
int bar = VariantUtils.ConvertTo<int>(variant);
```
If the type is a generic Godot collection, the conversion still goes
through a function pointer call.
The new code happens to be much shorter as well, with the file going
from 1057 lines to 407.
Side note: `Variant.cs` was mistakenly created in the wrong folder,
so I moved it to the `Core` folder.
