- Added a pause button in imgui cpu profiler.
- Added a capture button to save cpu profiling data to a data file.
- Added some profile marks in both RPI and RHI.
ATOM-15728 Shader Hot Reload Fails in Debug Build
The main change was to add OnAssetReady handlers to each of the asset classes. See comments in ShaderAsset::OnAssetReady for a detailed explanation. In short, OnAssetReloaded gets missed while assets are being reloaded at the same time on multiple threads, but OnAssetReady is always called whenever connecting to the AssetBus because of its AssetConnectionPolicy.
The above change required the addition of a new AssetInitBus to call the PostLoadInit() functions. Because OnAssetReady connects to buses that are not mutex-protected, they have to be connected on the main thread. AssetInitBus::PostLoadInit is called every frame in RPISystem::SimulationTick. All Atom's asset handlers that need to do post-load initialization must connect to the AssetInitBus, and the asset will disconnect itself after initialization is complete.
We also need the Shader class to handle OnShaderAssetReinitialized to properly handle the shader reload.
With these changes I can click back and forth between "Blending On" and "Blending Off" many times (like 20 times) without issue.
* ATOM-4661 Improvement with pass templates registration from data
- Update PassLibrary so it can load pass templates from more than one files and report duplicate pass templates.
- Added load templates events to pass system so the handlers from any gems can load their own pass templates.
- Added PassSystemInterface::OnReadyLoadTemplatesEvent::Handler in FeatureCommon gem's CommonSystemeComponet to load the PassTemplates.azasset in featureCommon gem.
- Misc: moved BindlessPrototypeSrg.asli from RPI to ASV project; fixed an assert issue when exit ASV
* Atom/qingtao/lyn 3436 (#558)
* LYN-3436 AutomatedTesting.GameLauncher crashes at launch if assets are not all processed
Change RPISystem so that the application would exit if the RPI system couldn't load critical assets.
Added code to avoid the GetLayout crash when layout for each platforms were not ready.
Added LoadCriticalAsset function to force compile and load critical assets.
Added default value to viewport size for ViewportContext.
* Change RPISystem asset initialization order so it returns earlier when those critical assets are not ready
