There are already APIs for getting a relative product path from an absolute source path, or getting a relative source path for an *existing* source file, but there were no APIs for getting a relative source path for a *new* source file. Prefabs will need this ability to be able to correctly generate a relative source path inside the prefab file before the file has been saved.
The logic for relative source paths is a little bit tricky because the paths are relative to the watch folders, and the watch folders can be nested, with different priorities to explain which should take precedence. The input paths can also include specifiers like "." and "..", which need to be reconciled before creating the final correct relative path. The included unit tests test all of the tricky edge cases that I was able to identify.
* Updated the DynamicModuleHandle code to search within the
SettingsRegistry for the FilePathKey_ProjectBuildPath setting in order
to determine the binary directory for the Project.
This is used to locate shared libraries and executables built by the
project when running and Engine SDK binary from within the Engine SDK
* Added a generation step within the Projects.cmake file to generate a
.setreg file containing the CMake build directory root.
The file is output to the <project-root>/user/Registry/build_path.setreg
file.
This occurs only on non-host platforms when configuring for
non-Monolithic builds, since the Build Directory is used to located the
project binary directory in order to located the project's generated
${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/bin/$<CONFIG>/Registry directory containing the
cmake_dependencies.<project-name>.<application-name>.setreg file
containing the list of gem modules to load for a given application
Updated the SettingsRegistryMergeUtils AddRuntimeFilePaths function to
be read in the new "/Amazon/Project/Settings/Build/project_build_path"
and use that to form an absolute path to the project build directory by
appending it to the FilePathKey_ProjectPath key.
That key is set in the 'FilePathKey_ProjectBuildPath' constant
Next updated the SettingsRegistryMergeUtils
MergeSettingsToRegistry_TargetBuildDependencyRegistry function to look
within the project build directory to locate the
cmake_dependencies.*.setreg file to load
Tweaked the Settings Registry merge order of the ComponentApplication,
GameApplication and Settings Registry builder to merge the command line
after merging the global user registry and after merging the project
user registry.
Moved the call to MergeSettingsToRegistry_TargetBuildDependencyRegistry
to occur after the above calls to make sure the properly overriden
projects' user registry was merged in order for the correct project
build path to be stored in the SettingsRegistry
* Added a ProjectConfigurationBinPath key which contains the path to the <build-dir>/bin/$<CONFIG> directory for a project which is used to load gem dlls and the Registry/cmake_dependencies.*.setreg files when using an pre-built Editor/AssetProcessor on an external project
* Fixed variable reference to fileNamePath variable
* Removing the default Project Build Path from the Settings Registry
Runtime Filepaths.
Any paths would have to be set explicitly via .setreg/.setregpatch file
or the --project-build-path parameter
Updated the setting of the project build path and project binary
directory to perform existance checks on the paths before setting the
keys of /Amazon/AzCore/Runtime/FilePaths/ProjectBuildPath and
/Amazon/AzCore/Runtime/FilePaths/ProjectConfigurationBinPath
Added a backup project binary path of
<project-build-path>/bin/$<PLATFORM>/$<CONFIG> which is used if the path
of <project-build-path>/bin/$<CONFIG> has not been found
Fixed compile error in DynamicModuleHandle_Apple.cpp
* UnixLike Platform Build fix for the DynamicModuleHandle code
These tests broke because RC.EXE is no longer a thing.
A more comprehensive fix and cleanup needs to be performed to
properly remove references to it while still keeping the existing
tests and other things. This just removes as little as is possible
to avoid error.
* LYN-2537 Updated the AssetBundler code to looks for the AssetSeedList
files within the Assets/Engine directory
Updated the MissingDependencyScanner GetXMLDependenciesFile functions to
use the Assets/Engine directory as well
Also fixed the MissingDependencyScanner to properly located dependency
xml files within gem directories
* Adding back input argument validation for the AssetBundler command options.
Also added an application_options settings registry file that contains the list of valid command options for the ComponentApplication
* Adding missing end of file newline for applications_options.setreg
* Fixed the AssetBundler help output for the bundleSeed command
{LYN-2848} Asset Processor: Modifying the Allowed or Rejected list merges previously existing Connections into one record
https://jira.agscollab.com/browse/LYN-2848
launched ap gui and tested manually.
* LYN-2537 Moved the Engine and Editor folder to be within the EngineAssets folder
* Fixed Documentation in bootstrap.cfg to correct the path to the user project specific registry file
* Adding a newline to the output of AssetCatalog 'Registering asset..., but type is not set' message
* Updating the AssetProcessorPlatformConfig.setreg Scan Folder to detect
the @ENGINEROOT@/EngineAssets/Engine path for engine runtime assets and
@ENGINEROOT@/EngineAssets/Editor path for engine tool assets
* Updating references to Icons and other assets to account for moving the
Engine and Editor folder under a single EngineAssets folder
* Moving the Engine Settings Registry folder from Engine/Registry -> Registry
* Removed the LY_PROJECT_CMAKE_PATH define as it is not portable to other locations. It is hard coded to the project location that was used for the CMake configuration. Furthermore it paths with backslashes within it are treated as escape characters and not a path separator
* Updated the LyTestTools asset_processor.py script to copy the exclude.filetag from the EngineAssets/Engine directory now
* Fixed Atom Shader Preprocessing when running using an External Project
* Updated the TSGenerateAction.cpp to fix the build error with using a renamed variable
* Updated the Install_Common.cmake ly_setup_others function to install the
EngineAssets directory and the each of the Gem's Assets directory while
maintaining the relative directory structure to the Engine Root
Also updated the install step to install the Registry folder at the
engine root
* Fixed the copying of the Registry folder to be in the install root, instead of under a second 'Registry' folder
* Moving the AssetProcessorPlatformConfig.setreg file over to the Registry folder
* Updated the LyTestTools and C++ code to point that the new location of
the AssetProcessorPlatformConfig.setreg file inside of the Registry
folder
* Renamed Test AssetProcessor*Config.ini files to have the .setreg extension
* Converted the AssetProcessor test setreg files from ini format to json
format using the SerializeContextTools convert-ini command
* Updated the AssetProcessor CMakeLists.txt to copy over the test setreg files to the build folder
* Updated the assetprocessor test file list to point at the renamed AsssetProcessor*Config setreg filenames
* Removed the Output Prefix code from the AssetProcessor. The complexity that it brought to the AP code is not needed, as users can replicate the behavior by just moving there assets underneath a another folder, underneath the scan folder
* Adding back support to read the AssetProcessorPlatformConfig.setreg file from the asset root. This is only needed for C++ UnitTests as they run in an environment where the accessing the Engine Settings Registry is not available
* Updating the Install_common.cmake logic to copy any "Assets" folder to
the install layout.
The Script has also been updated to copy over the "Assets" folder in the
Engine Root to the install layout instead of an "EngineAssets" folder
* Updating References to EngineAssets source asset folder in code to be the Assets source folder
* Moved the Engine Source Asset folder of 'EngineAssets' to a new folder name of 'Assets'. This is inline with the naming scheme we use for Gem asset folders
* Adding the EngineFinder.cmake to the AutomatedTesting project to allow it to work in a project centric manner
* Updating the LyTestTools copy_assets_to_project function to be able to copy assets with folders to the temporary project root
Fixed an issue in LyTestTools where the temporary log directory could have shutil.rmtree being called twice on it leading to an exception which fails an automated test
Updated the asset_procesor_gui_tests_2 AddScanFolder test to not use the
output prefix, but instead place the source asset root into a
subdirectory
* Correct the AssetProcessorPlatformConfig Scan Folders for the EngineAssets directory to point at the Assets directory
* Updated the asset procesor batch dependency test scan folder to point at the 'Assets' folder instead of 'EngineAssets'
