- app/ no longer includes engine C++ headers nor holds engine C++ types:
engine access goes through the oakengine C ABI plus C++ wrappers
(oakutil/oaknode.h, oakutil/oakvideo.h) and app-local mirror types
(tooltypes, trackreferencehandle, timelinecommonapp, keyframetypes,
subtitleapp, serializedlayoutinfoapp, nodevaluehandle, sliderdisplaytypeapp)
- engine: new C ABI functions for block/track/clip/transition navigation
and predicates, links, caches, waveform/playback, disk folder,
sequence_track_list, node_free, footage_is_valid, block_get_track,
get_brush; loadotio/saveotio ported to the current engine API
- OTIO is now a required dependency: CI and CD build it on every
platform, FindOpenTimelineIO fixed for OTIO 0.16/0.19 (the old deps
include requirement silently disabled OTIO everywhere), runtime
libraries are bundled into packages and copied next to macOS binaries
(oak_copy_otio_runtime)
- fix ProjectViewModel drag&drop mime read/write size mismatch (segfault)
- unify color label naming (k_olive -> "Oak") in the app-side mirror
- docs: OTIO required, FFmpeg minimum corrected to 6.0 (en/zh)
- gtest suite: 1925 passed, 0 failed
Every app module now reaches liboakengine exclusively through
oakengine_* C calls, EngineEventBridge subscriptions and app-side
handle headers (cliphandle/keyframehandle/nodevaluehandle/oakvaluehelper).
Direct C++ command construction, engine signal connect()s, and engine
type usage in MOC-visible signatures are gone: 557 -> 0 undefined
olive:: symbols in oak-editor.
Physical split: app/{audio,cli,codec,common,config,node,pluginSupport,
render,task,timeline,undo,tool,shaders} plus coreengine, version and
ui/icons+colorcoding move to a new top-level engine/ tree, built as
liboakengine.so (shared). The render backends (oakgl/oakvulkan) move
with it and link the engine library instead of embedding a static
render-core subset (libolive-rendercore is gone).
- oak-render-worker now links liboakengine instead of the whole
libolive-editor object set: 336MB -> 2.9MB, no Qt Widgets UI
- the editor links liboakengine for the engine and keeps only UI
objects in libolive-editor
- install/packaging: GNUInstallDirs libdir on Linux, bundle copy on
macOS, oakengine.dll staged for NSIS, AppImage validation entry
- fix backend lookup for the new layout: DynamicRenderer searched
../app but backends now live in engine/; a stale pre-split liboakgl
in the build tree got dlopened instead, re-initialized and later
destroyed the interposed engine statics (full-suite segfault at
DialogSequenceParameterTab, found via gdb watchpoint)
EngineCore (new app/coreengine.{h,cpp}) owns every engine-safe part of
the old Core singleton: CoreParams, lifecycle of the engine managers,
UndoStack, tool/snapping/timecode state, locale, autorecovery, recent
projects, footage filters, clipboard, project registry, type
declarations, and the proxy toggle. UI dependencies are inverted
through hooks instead: status-bar/cache-full signals and std::function
handlers for image-sequence confirmation, footage relink, OTIO import,
project save/close and layout load (same pattern as
Config::ErrorHandler).
Core (app/) now derives from EngineCore and keeps only UI behavior:
the main window, dialogs, panel heuristics, import/export flows and
project lifecycle presentation. Its public API is unchanged (all
inherited), and Core::instance() covariantly static_casts the engine
singleton. The render worker constructs EngineCore directly, making it
the first binary that no longer needs the UI side of Core.
~25 engine call sites move from core.h to coreengine.h; a dozen more
drop a vestigial core.h include (gaining direct includes for symbols
they were borrowing transitively). Full gtest suite green (1986 tests,
0 failures).
liboakcore is now a shared library that exposes only a C ABI:
- every value class (Rational, TimeRange, Color, Bezier, AudioParams,
SampleBuffer) and the free-function groups (StringUtils, fraction
utils, Timecode) is wrapped in an opaque-handle C API under
core/include/olive/core/oakcore/ (init/copy/free + self-first
functions), implemented in core/src/capi/
- consumers keep the original C++ API unchanged through same-name
wrapper classes that hold the handle and forward across the C
boundary; original implementations moved to core/src/oliveimpl
(namespace olive::core::internal) and are hidden from export
- TimeRangeList/TimeRangeListFrameIterator are reimplemented inline
over the wrapper (iterators/containers don't cross C ABI)
- generic Value container stays internal (unused by consumers) and is
no longer part of the public umbrella header
- hidden visibility + OAKCORE_BUILD export macro; nm shows zero
olive::* symbols exported
- install into the platform's standard libdir (GNUInstallDirs);
Windows DLLs next to the executables, macOS into the app bundle
- TimelineWorkArea::in/out/length now return by value: the wrapped
TimeRange getters return values, and forwarding them through const
references dangled (found via RenderWorkerFootageTest crash)
- tests: 9 new pure C ABI test executables (oakcore_*_test) covering
every public C function; 4 stale legacy core tests removed (they
targeted a long-renamed API and were never built due to a malformed
option() that also kept OLIVECORE_BUILD_TESTS off)
- CI/CD: oakcore.dll staged for NSIS, liboakcore.so added to the
AppImage validation list, build-tree DLL copies on Windows
- html.cpp: rgba() colors parsed with setRedF/GreenF/BlueF (0-1) while the
writer emits 0-255 integers, so semi-transparent text colors lost their
RGB on round-trip; parse with integer setters instead
- CLIProgressDialog: percentage padding compared normalized progress
(0.0-1.0) against 10/100, so padding was always fully applied; compute
the percentage first
- TimelineUndoPointer BlockTrimCommand: remove_block_from_graph_ was
never initialized (UB on redo)
- TimelineUndoGeneral TransitionRemoveCommand: track_ was never
initialized; GetRelevantProject() could dereference it before redo()
- ProjectLoadTask::Run(): failure path deleted project_ without
resetting it, leaving GetLoadedProject() dangling
Yep, this is another one of my "famous" sweeping rewrites. Expect things to break.
Goals for this are:
- Greatly simplify node connections (particularly with arrays) so the code requires less maintenance/is more stable
- Redesign node structure to address issues where UI would stall for lengthy periods of time
- Less reliance on shared ptrs/greater reliance on QObject system for inheritance/memory management
- General code cleanup and improvements
