# Objective
Fixes a part of #14274.
Bevy has an incredibly inconsistent naming convention for its system
sets, both internally and across the ecosystem.

*Names of public system set types in Bevy*
Most Bevy types use a naming of `FooSystem` or just `Foo`, but there are
also a few `FooSystems` and `FooSet` types. In ecosystem crates on the
other hand, `FooSet` is perhaps the most commonly used name in general.
Conventions being so wildly inconsistent can make it harder for users to
pick names for their own types, to search for system sets on docs.rs, or
to even discern which types *are* system sets.
To reign in the inconsistency a bit and help unify the ecosystem, it
would be good to establish a common recommended naming convention for
system sets in Bevy itself, similar to how plugins are commonly suffixed
with `Plugin` (ex: `TimePlugin`). By adopting a consistent naming
convention in first-party Bevy, we can softly nudge ecosystem crates to
follow suit (for types where it makes sense to do so).
Choosing a naming convention is also relevant now, as the [`bevy_cli`
recently adopted
lints](https://github.com/TheBevyFlock/bevy_cli/pull/345) to enforce
naming for plugins and system sets, and the recommended naming used for
system sets is still a bit open.
## Which Name To Use?
Now the contentious part: what naming convention should we actually
adopt?
This was discussed on the Bevy Discord at the end of last year, starting
[here](<https://discord.com/channels/691052431525675048/692572690833473578/1310659954683936789>).
`FooSet` and `FooSystems` were the clear favorites, with `FooSet` very
narrowly winning an unofficial poll. However, it seems to me like the
consensus was broadly moving towards `FooSystems` at the end and after
the poll, with Cart
([source](https://discord.com/channels/691052431525675048/692572690833473578/1311140204974706708))
and later Alice
([source](https://discord.com/channels/691052431525675048/692572690833473578/1311092530732859533))
and also me being in favor of it.
Let's do a quick pros and cons list! Of course these are just what I
thought of, so take it with a grain of salt.
`FooSet`:
- Pro: Nice and short!
- Pro: Used by many ecosystem crates.
- Pro: The `Set` suffix comes directly from the trait name `SystemSet`.
- Pro: Pairs nicely with existing APIs like `in_set` and
`configure_sets`.
- Con: `Set` by itself doesn't actually indicate that it's related to
systems *at all*, apart from the implemented trait. A set of what?
- Con: Is `FooSet` a set of `Foo`s or a system set related to `Foo`? Ex:
`ContactSet`, `MeshSet`, `EnemySet`...
`FooSystems`:
- Pro: Very clearly indicates that the type represents a collection of
systems. The actual core concept, system(s), is in the name.
- Pro: Parallels nicely with `FooPlugins` for plugin groups.
- Pro: Low risk of conflicts with other names or misunderstandings about
what the type is.
- Pro: In most cases, reads *very* nicely and clearly. Ex:
`PhysicsSystems` and `AnimationSystems` as opposed to `PhysicsSet` and
`AnimationSet`.
- Pro: Easy to search for on docs.rs.
- Con: Usually results in longer names.
- Con: Not yet as widely used.
Really the big problem with `FooSet` is that it doesn't actually
describe what it is. It describes what *kind of thing* it is (a set of
something), but not *what it is a set of*, unless you know the type or
check its docs or implemented traits. `FooSystems` on the other hand is
much more self-descriptive in this regard, at the cost of being a bit
longer to type.
Ultimately, in some ways it comes down to preference and how you think
of system sets. Personally, I was originally in favor of `FooSet`, but
have been increasingly on the side of `FooSystems`, especially after
seeing what the new names would actually look like in Avian and now
Bevy. I prefer it because it usually reads better, is much more clearly
related to groups of systems than `FooSet`, and overall *feels* more
correct and natural to me in the long term.
For these reasons, and because Alice and Cart also seemed to share a
preference for it when it was previously being discussed, I propose that
we adopt a `FooSystems` naming convention where applicable.
## Solution
Rename Bevy's system set types to use a consistent `FooSet` naming where
applicable.
- `AccessibilitySystem` → `AccessibilitySystems`
- `GizmoRenderSystem` → `GizmoRenderSystems`
- `PickSet` → `PickingSystems`
- `RunFixedMainLoopSystem` → `RunFixedMainLoopSystems`
- `TransformSystem` → `TransformSystems`
- `RemoteSet` → `RemoteSystems`
- `RenderSet` → `RenderSystems`
- `SpriteSystem` → `SpriteSystems`
- `StateTransitionSteps` → `StateTransitionSystems`
- `RenderUiSystem` → `RenderUiSystems`
- `UiSystem` → `UiSystems`
- `Animation` → `AnimationSystems`
- `AssetEvents` → `AssetEventSystems`
- `TrackAssets` → `AssetTrackingSystems`
- `UpdateGizmoMeshes` → `GizmoMeshSystems`
- `InputSystem` → `InputSystems`
- `InputFocusSet` → `InputFocusSystems`
- `ExtractMaterialsSet` → `MaterialExtractionSystems`
- `ExtractMeshesSet` → `MeshExtractionSystems`
- `RumbleSystem` → `RumbleSystems`
- `CameraUpdateSystem` → `CameraUpdateSystems`
- `ExtractAssetsSet` → `AssetExtractionSystems`
- `Update2dText` → `Text2dUpdateSystems`
- `TimeSystem` → `TimeSystems`
- `AudioPlaySet` → `AudioPlaybackSystems`
- `SendEvents` → `EventSenderSystems`
- `EventUpdates` → `EventUpdateSystems`
A lot of the names got slightly longer, but they are also a lot more
consistent, and in my opinion the majority of them read much better. For
a few of the names I took the liberty of rewording things a bit;
definitely open to any further naming improvements.
There are still also cases where the `FooSystems` naming doesn't really
make sense, and those I left alone. This primarily includes system sets
like `Interned<dyn SystemSet>`, `EnterSchedules<S>`, `ExitSchedules<S>`,
or `TransitionSchedules<S>`, where the type has some special purpose and
semantics.
## Todo
- [x] Should I keep all the old names as deprecated type aliases? I can
do this, but to avoid wasting work I'd prefer to first reach consensus
on whether these renames are even desired.
- [x] Migration guide
- [x] Release notes
# Objective
The goal of `bevy_platform_support` is to provide a set of platform
agnostic APIs, alongside platform-specific functionality. This is a high
traffic crate (providing things like HashMap and Instant). Especially in
light of https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/discussions/18799, it
deserves a friendlier / shorter name.
Given that it hasn't had a full release yet, getting this change in
before Bevy 0.16 makes sense.
## Solution
- Rename `bevy_platform_support` to `bevy_platform`.
# Objective
Prevents duplicate implementation between IntoSystemConfigs and
IntoSystemSetConfigs using a generic, adds a NodeType trait for more
config flexibility (opening the door to implement
https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/14195?).
## Solution
Followed writeup by @ItsDoot:
https://hackmd.io/@doot/rJeefFHc1x
Removes IntoSystemConfigs and IntoSystemSetConfigs, instead using
IntoNodeConfigs with generics.

# Objective
- Prevent usage of `println!`, `eprintln!` and the like because they
require `std`
- Fixes#17446
## Solution
- Enable the `print_stdout` and `print_stderr` clippy lints
- Replace all `println!` and `eprintln!` occurrences with `log::*` where
applicable or alternatively ignore the warnings
## Testing
- Run `cargo clippy --workspace` to ensure that there are no warnings
relating to printing to `stdout` or `stderr`
Fixes#17856.
## Migration Guide
- `EventWriter::send` has been renamed to `EventWriter::write`.
- `EventWriter::send_batch` has been renamed to
`EventWriter::write_batch`.
- `EventWriter::send_default` has been renamed to
`EventWriter::write_default`.

This pr uses the `extern crate self as` trick to make proc macros behave
the same way inside and outside bevy.
# Objective
- Removes noise introduced by `crate as` in the whole bevy repo.
- Fixes#17004.
- Hardens proc macro path resolution.
## TODO
- [x] `BevyManifest` needs cleanup.
- [x] Cleanup remaining `crate as`.
- [x] Add proper integration tests to the ci.
## Notes
- `cargo-manifest-proc-macros` is written by me and based/inspired by
the old `BevyManifest` implementation and
[`bkchr/proc-macro-crate`](https://github.com/bkchr/proc-macro-crate).
- What do you think about the new integration test machinery I added to
the `ci`?
More and better integration tests can be added at a later stage.
The goal of these integration tests is to simulate an actual separate
crate that uses bevy. Ideally they would lightly touch all bevy crates.
## Testing
- Needs RA test
- Needs testing from other users
- Others need to run at least `cargo run -p ci integration-test` and
verify that they work.

# Objective
Fixes#17662
## Solution
Moved `Item` and `fetch` from `WorldQuery` to `QueryData`, and adjusted
their implementations accordingly.
Currently, documentation related to `fetch` is written under
`WorldQuery`. It would be more appropriate to move it to the `QueryData`
documentation for clarity.
I am not very experienced with making contributions. If there are any
mistakes or areas for improvement, I would appreciate any suggestions
you may have.
## Migration Guide
The `WorldQuery::Item` type and `WorldQuery::fetch` method have been
moved to `QueryData`, as they were not useful for `QueryFilter` types.

# Cold Specialization
## Objective
An ongoing part of our quest to retain everything in the render world,
cold-specialization aims to cache pipeline specialization so that
pipeline IDs can be recomputed only when necessary, rather than every
frame. This approach reduces redundant work in stable scenes, while
still accommodating scenarios in which materials, views, or visibility
might change, as well as unlocking future optimization work like
retaining render bins.
## Solution
Queue systems are split into a specialization system and queue system,
the former of which only runs when necessary to compute a new pipeline
id. Pipelines are invalidated using a combination of change detection
and ECS ticks.
### The difficulty with change detection
Detecting “what changed” can be tricky because pipeline specialization
depends not only on the entity’s components (e.g., mesh, material, etc.)
but also on which view (camera) it is rendering in. In other words, the
cache key for a given pipeline id is a view entity/render entity pair.
As such, it's not sufficient simply to react to change detection in
order to specialize -- an entity could currently be out of view or could
be rendered in the future in camera that is currently disabled or hasn't
spawned yet.
### Why ticks?
Ticks allow us to ensure correctness by allowing us to compare the last
time a view or entity was updated compared to the cached pipeline id.
This ensures that even if an entity was out of view or has never been
seen in a given camera before we can still correctly determine whether
it needs to be re-specialized or not.
## Testing
TODO: Tested a bunch of different examples, need to test more.
## Migration Guide
TODO
- `AssetEvents` has been moved into the `PostUpdate` schedule.

# Objective
- Contributes to #16877
## Solution
- Moved `hashbrown`, `foldhash`, and related types out of `bevy_utils`
and into `bevy_platform_support`
- Refactored the above to match the layout of these types in `std`.
- Updated crates as required.
## Testing
- CI
---
## Migration Guide
- The following items were moved out of `bevy_utils` and into
`bevy_platform_support::hash`:
- `FixedState`
- `DefaultHasher`
- `RandomState`
- `FixedHasher`
- `Hashed`
- `PassHash`
- `PassHasher`
- `NoOpHash`
- The following items were moved out of `bevy_utils` and into
`bevy_platform_support::collections`:
- `HashMap`
- `HashSet`
- `bevy_utils::hashbrown` has been removed. Instead, import from
`bevy_platform_support::collections` _or_ take a dependency on
`hashbrown` directly.
- `bevy_utils::Entry` has been removed. Instead, import from
`bevy_platform_support::collections::hash_map` or
`bevy_platform_support::collections::hash_set` as appropriate.
- All of the above equally apply to `bevy::utils` and
`bevy::platform_support`.
## Notes
- I left `PreHashMap`, `PreHashMapExt`, and `TypeIdMap` in `bevy_utils`
as they might be candidates for micro-crating. They can always be moved
into `bevy_platform_support` at a later date if desired.
# Objective
`bevy_ecs`'s `system` module is something of a grab bag, and *very*
large. This is particularly true for the `system_param` module, which is
more than 2k lines long!
While it could be defensible to put `Res` and `ResMut` there (lol no
they're in change_detection.rs, obviously), it doesn't make any sense to
put the `Resource` trait there. This is confusing to navigate (and
painful to work on and review).
## Solution
- Create a root level `bevy_ecs/resource.rs` module to mirror
`bevy_ecs/component.rs`
- move the `Resource` trait to that module
- move the `Resource` derive macro to that module as well (Rust really
likes when you pun on the names of the derive macro and trait and put
them in the same path)
- fix all of the imports
## Notes to reviewers
- We could probably move more stuff into here, but I wanted to keep this
PR as small as possible given the absurd level of import changes.
- This PR is ground work for my upcoming attempts to store resource data
on components (resources-as-entities). Splitting this code out will make
the work and review a bit easier, and is the sort of overdue refactor
that's good to do as part of more meaningful work.
## Testing
cargo build works!
## Migration Guide
`bevy_ecs::system::Resource` has been moved to
`bevy_ecs::resource::Resource`.
Makes use of `std` explicit, simplifying a possible `no_std` port.
# Objective
- Contributes to #15460
- Simplify future `no_std` work on `bevy_asset`
## Solution
- Add `#![no_std]` to switch to `core::prelude` instead of
`std::prelude`
## Testing
- CI
---
## Notes
This is entirely a change around the names of imports and has no impact
on functionality. This just reduces the quantity of changes involved in
the (likely more controversial) `no_std`-ification of `bevy_asset`.
# Objective
Stumbled upon a `from <-> form` transposition while reviewing a PR,
thought it was interesting, and went down a bit of a rabbit hole.
## Solution
Fix em
# Objective
- https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/17111
## Solution
Set the `clippy::allow_attributes` and
`clippy::allow_attributes_without_reason` lints to `deny`, and bring
`bevy_asset` in line with the new restrictions.
No code changes have been made - except if a lint that was previously
`allow(...)`'d could be removed via small code changes. For example,
`unused_variables` can be handled by adding a `_` to the beginning of a
field's name.
## Testing
`cargo clippy` and `cargo test --package bevy_asset --features
multi_threaded` were run, and no errors were encountered.
Related to https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/16843
Since `WorldQuery::Fetch` is `Clone`, it can't store mutable references
to resources, so it doesn't make sense to mutably access resources. In
that sense, it is hard to find usecases of mutably accessing resources
and to clearly define, what mutably accessing resources would mean, so
it's been decided to disallow write resource access.
Also changed documentation of safety requirements of
`WorldQuery::init_fetch` and `WorldQuery::fetch` to clearly state to the
caller, what safety invariants they need to uphold.
# Objective
- Contributes to #11478
## Solution
- Made `bevy_utils::tracing` `doc(hidden)`
- Re-exported `tracing` from `bevy_log` for end-users
- Added `tracing` directly to crates that need it.
## Testing
- CI
---
## Migration Guide
If you were importing `tracing` via `bevy::utils::tracing`, instead use
`bevy::log::tracing`. Note that many items within `tracing` are also
directly re-exported from `bevy::log` as well, so you may only need
`bevy::log` for the most common items (e.g., `warn!`, `trace!`, etc.).
This also applies to the `log_once!` family of macros.
## Notes
- While this doesn't reduce the line-count in `bevy_utils`, it further
decouples the internal crates from `bevy_utils`, making its eventual
removal more feasible in the future.
- I have just imported `tracing` as we do for all dependencies. However,
a workspace dependency may be more appropriate for version management.
# Objective
- Fixes#16892
## Solution
- Removed `TypeRegistryPlugin` (`Name` is now automatically registered
with a default `App`)
- Moved `TaskPoolPlugin` to `bevy_app`
- Moved `FrameCountPlugin` to `bevy_diagnostic`
- Deleted now-empty `bevy_core`
## Testing
- CI
## Migration Guide
- `TypeRegistryPlugin` no longer exists. If you can't use a default
`App` but still need `Name` registered, do so manually with
`app.register_type::<Name>()`.
- References to `TaskPoolPlugin` and associated types will need to
import it from `bevy_app` instead of `bevy_core`
- References to `FrameCountPlugin` and associated types will need to
import it from `bevy_diagnostic` instead of `bevy_core`
## Notes
This strategy was agreed upon by Cart and several other members in
[Discord](https://discord.com/channels/691052431525675048/692572690833473578/1319137218312278077).
# Objective
Implement a new `AssetChanged` query filter that allows users to query
for entities whose related assets may have changed.
- Closes https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/5069
- Unblocks #16420. Currently, `cold-specialization`, a key rendering
optimization for unlocking ancillary benefits of the retained render
world, is blocked on being unable detect all scenarios in which an
entity's mesh/material changes using events and observers. An
`AssetChanged` filter will drastically simplify our implementation and
be more robust to future changes.
Originally implemented by @nicopap in #5080.
## Solution
- Adds a new `AssetChanged` query filter that initializes a
`AssetChanges<A>` resource that tracks changed assets and ticks in
`asset_events`.
- ~Reverts #13343 and changes the api of `get_state` to accept `impl
Into<UnsafeWorldCell<'w>>` to allow accessing the `AssetChanges<A>`
resource.~
- Adds a `AsAssetId` trait used for newtype handle wrappers (e.g.
`Mesh3d`) that allows associating a component with the underlying
`Asset` it represents.
## Testing
- Tests are added for `AssetChanged`.
- TBD on performance. We are going to add this `Mesh3d` and
`MeshMaterial3d` (etc) in the renderer. Long term wins in render
performance this unblocks should swamp tracking overhead for any
realistic workload.
## Migration Guide
- The `asset_events` system is no longer public. Users should order
their systems relative to the `AssetEvents` system set.
