Gaffer 1.1.9.0

[johnhaddon]

Improvements

• Arnold : Disabled ADP more thoroughly, using ARNOLD_ADP_DISABLE=1 for Arnold 7.1.4.0 and greater. Set ARNOLD_ADP_DISABLE=0 before running Gaffer if you wish to use ADP.
• Cycles :
  • Added warning when a shader contains a parameter which does not exist in Cycles.
  • Added warning when a shader contains a parameter with an unsupported datatype.
  • Added warning when a shader contains an enum parameter with an invalid value.
  • Added support for passing InternedStringData to enum and string parameters.

Fixes

• Backups : Fixed error when a backup file contained characters that couldn't be represented using the current locale. This could be triggered by a separate bug in OpenShadingLanguage that caused the locale to be changed unnecessarily (Loading OSL shader changes python's locale/default encoding #5048).
• Viewer :
  • Fixed crash when switching from Cycles to OpenGL rendering (Gaffer crashes when switch from Cycles to a different Viewer renderer. #5051).
  • Fixed potential crash when destroying a raytraced viewport.
• Cyles :
  • Fixed crashes caused by providing unsupported data types in shader parameters.
  • Fixed support for Color4f values on colour shader parameters. This can be useful when loading non-standard USD files.
  • Fixed support for V[23]i values on vector shader parameters.
  • Fixed handling of colour array parameters.

API

• TestCase : Added scopedLocale() method.
