We don't use that info for anything, and it generates unnecessary diffs
every time we bump the minor version (and CI failures if we forget to
sync some files from opt-in modules (mono, text_server_fb).
The method `to_utf8` doesn't exist in Godot 4, but is still mentioned in
the documentation in some places. Replace it with the new name
`to_utf8_buffer`. Same for ascii. Same for C#.
- Fix documentation after C# renames.
- Add missing `partial` in C# class declarations.
- Change `delta` parameter type to `double` in C#.
- Ensure parameters match base declaration.
- Use `$` string interpolation in C#.
- Fix invalid or outdated C# code.
- Changed some examples to follow our style guide more closely.
- Removed empty paragraphs in XML.
- Consistently use bold style for "Example:", on a new line.
- Fix usage of `[code]` when hyperlinks could be used (`[member]`, `[constant]`).
- Fix invalid usage of backticks for inline code in BBCode.
- Fix some American/British English spelling inconsistencies.
- Other minor fixes spotted along the way, including typo fixes with codespell.
- Don't specify `@GlobalScope` for `enum` and `constant`.
This makes it easier to spot syntax errors when editing the
class reference. The schema is referenced locally so validation
can still work offline.
Each class XML's schema conformance is also checked on GitHub Actions.
For the time being we don't support writing a description for those, preferring
having all details in the method's description.
Using self-closing tags saves half the lines, and prevents contributors from
thinking that they should write the argument or return documentation there.
We already removed it from the online docs with #35132.
Currently it can only be "Built-In Types" (Variant types) or "Core"
(everything else), which is of limited use.
We might also want to consider dropping it from `ClassDB` altogether
in Godot 4.0.
- Document a few more properties and methods
- Add more information to many classes
- Fix lots of typos and gramar mistakes
- Use [code] tags for parameters consistently
- Use [b] and [i] tags consistently
- Put "Warning:" and "Note:" on their own line to be more visible,
and make them always bold
- Tweak formatting in code examples to be more readable
- Use double quotes consistently
- Add more links to third-party technologies
In many of the XML files it had been noted that when the documentation
refers to a return value, both "Return" and "Returns" are used. This
has now been fixed to only say "Returns".
Fixes#28867
Network peers get_var/put_var
File get_var/store_var
GDScript/Mono/VisualScript bytes2var/var2bytes
Add MultiplayerAPI.allow_object_decoding member which deprecates PacketPeer.allow_object_decoding.
Break ABI compatibaility (API compatibility for GDNative).
If the "bytes" parameter of get_string and get_utf8_string is negative,
the length will be read from the stream instead.
The bytes parameter has now a default (-1), allowing to use them
directly as reverses of put_string and put_utf8_string .
put_string was not implemented, so I implemented it to allow sending
ASCII strings (which are much smaller than UTF8 ones).
