Hi all, Last september, Revision 31766, Campbell added this: ----------- ./intern/tools/pydna.py Experimental module (for developers only), exposes DNA data via python uses no blender/python modules, pure python + autogenerated ctypes api. -----------
Since it allows full Blender data access, scripters are using it to cover up for missing RNA parts. A 2nd Life developer in IRC asked if we could enable it on the 2.57 release, by ensuring it works for Windows as well (needs a small #ifdef DNA hack). My suggestion would be to really not do this, it doesn't belong in releases. By "fixing" this backdoor to work in all released binaries we only will regret it later on. We don't have our RNA project for a good reason... Because 2nd Life really needs image access, I advised them to provide temporarily a special build for their users to survive the period until we have our own decent working RNA level image access. Please advise if that's acceptable? -Ton- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Ton Roosendaal Blender Foundation [email protected] www.blender.org Blender Institute Entrepotdok 57A 1018AD Amsterdam The Netherlands _______________________________________________ Bf-committers mailing list [email protected] http://lists.blender.org/mailman/listinfo/bf-committers
