Replaces ErrorStatus with Error across all systems for consistency.
Renames ResourceBarrierData fields to camelCase.
Adds BindlessAccess enum and updates GetBindlessIndex API.
Updates method signatures, result types, and error checks.
Modernizes HLSL mesh shader syntax and fixes naming.
Improves code style and updates comments for clarity.
Major overhaul of render graph system for modularity and performance:
- Split compilation and execution logic into dedicated classes (Compiler, Executor, NativePassBuilder, Barriers)
- Overhauled barrier system: now uses CompiledBarrier with target state only, querying before state at execution
- Resource size/alignment now queried from D3D12 device for accurate heap allocation
- ResourceDesc now includes Type field and asserts correct union access
- Centralized D3D12 interop logic in D3D12Utility extensions
- Added RenderGraphHasher for structural graph hashing and cache invalidation
- RenderGraph class simplified to orchestrate specialized components
- ResourceAliasingManager now uses allocator for size queries
- Compilation cache now stores compiled barriers, reducing memory usage
- Improved comments, debug assertions, and removed redundant code
Result: more maintainable, efficient, and robust render graph pipeline.
Major overhaul of resource barrier and state tracking in RenderGraph:
- Introduce ResourceBarrierData for explicit (layout, access, sync) tracking.
- Separate aliasing and transition barriers; explicit aliasing support.
- Remove BufferHint; infer buffer usage from BufferUsage flags.
- Update TextureAccess/BufferAccess to include usage requirements.
- Improve enums (BarrierSync, BarrierAccess, BarrierLayout) for D3D12 alignment.
- Update D3D12CommandBuffer to use new barrier data and error handling.
- Make D3D12DescriptorHeap a class; add ReleaseSampler to IResourceDatabase.
- Reset resource pools and aliasing managers each frame.
- Batch and flush barriers efficiently per pass.
- Update HLSL mesh shader macros to [NumThreads].
- Remove obsolete code and improve documentation.
This refactor improves correctness, extensibility, and prepares for advanced features.
Introduces a full-featured render graph system with pass culling, resource aliasing, and automatic barrier generation. Refactors resource and barrier APIs, improves error handling, and unifies result types. Renderer and render passes now use the new graph-based workflow. Updates shader includes, adds a blit shader, and improves HLSL parsing. Removes dynamic descriptor heaps in favor of persistent ones. Project file now includes the render graph module. Lays the foundation for advanced rendering features and improved memory efficiency.
