Major architecture upgrade:
- Add native render pass merging (hardware pass grouping, load/store op inference)
- Implement heap-based aliasing for textures & buffers (D3D12-style)
- Unify resource model: buffers and textures in one registry
- Extend builder API for buffer creation/usage, access flags, hints
- Improve barrier/state tracking (buffer hints, indirect argument state)
- Update caching, hashing, and debug output for new model
- Add enums/structs: AttachmentLoadOp, StoreOp, BufferHint, etc.
- D3D12 backend: support named resources, temp upload buffers, correct heap usage
- Update docs, benchmarks, and project files for new features
Brings render graph closer to AAA engine standards, enabling efficient memory usage, lower driver overhead, and a more flexible API.
Major architectural update to graphics/material/shader system:
- Introduced strongly-typed key structs (Key64/Key128) for passes, variants, and pipelines; removed legacy key types.
- Implemented robust hashing and key generation utilities for efficient variant and pipeline lookup/caching.
- Shader compiler now compiles/caches all keyword variants using new key system; includes handled as lists.
- Switched to push constant root signature for per-draw data; updated HLSL and C# codegen accordingly.
- Refactored Material, Shader, and Pass data structures for cache efficiency and variant support.
- Pipeline library and PSO management now use 128-bit keys and variant-specific caching.
- Replaced WorldNode with SceneNode in editor/scene graph; introduced ComponentManager for archetype/query management.
- Migrated math utilities to Misaki.HighPerformance.Mathematics; updated editor controls.
- Updated all HLSL and codegen for new buffer/push constant layouts and macros.
- Misc: project reference cleanup, D3D12 Work Graph support, doc updates, and code modernization.
- Updated dependencies, including `Misaki.HighPerformance` and `TerraFX.Interop`.
- Refactored `Result` struct for better error handling and chaining.
- Removed `Ptr<T>` struct as it was no longer necessary.
- Enhanced `Win32Utility` with `Attach` and `Dispose` methods.
- Improved `ProjectService` and `AppStateMachine` with `Result` integration.
- Refactored `IShaderCompiler` to support SPIR-V cross-compilation and pass-level compilation.
- Standardized Direct3D12 resource management with `UniquePtr` and added `D3D12Object` base class.
- Improved shader reflection validation and pipeline creation in `D3D12PipelineLibrary`.
- Updated `SDLCompiler` for better error handling during shader generation.
- Enhanced logging, debugging, and code readability across the codebase.
- Performed general code cleanup, including unused namespace removal and naming consistency.
Refactored and reorganized the codebase to improve readability, performance, and maintainability. Introduced new interfaces and structs for better resource management, updated project configuration files, and refactored shader and graphics pipeline management. Improved error handling, code formatting, and removed unused code and namespaces. Updated DLL references and method signatures for consistency and maintainability.
- Introduced `Handle<T>` and `Identifier<T>` for lightweight, strongly-typed resource identifiers.
- Replaced `BitSet` with `UnsafeBitSet` for improved performance and memory safety.
- Refactored `Mesh` and `Material` into `MeshClass` and `MaterialClass` for better GPU resource handling.
- Added `D3D12ResourceDatabase` to centralize GPU resource tracking and lifecycle management.
- Updated `D3D12ShaderCompiler` to load shaders from disk and dynamically populate constant buffers and textures.
- Enhanced `ICommandBuffer` with new upload operations for buffers and textures.
- Refactored `Vertex` struct for simplified memory layout and better performance.
- Updated `MeshBuilder` and rendering logic to align with new resource and shader structures.
- Added `BindlessDescriptor` support to `TextureHandle` and `BufferHandle`.
- Removed unused classes and performed general cleanup.
- Updated unit tests and demos to reflect the new architecture.
- Added D3D12ResourceFactory for creating render targets, textures, and buffers.
- Enhanced D3D12SwapChain to manage back buffer render targets and provide access to them.
- Updated D3D12Texture to utilize resource handles for better resource management.
- Removed legacy ResourceAllocator and integrated improvements for resource handling.
- Introduced new interfaces for resource factory and swap chain to streamline resource creation.
- Added support for mip levels and texture dimensions in render target and texture descriptions.
- Created new markdown files to document allocator and swap chain improvements.
