# Objective
- bevy_math fails to publish because of the self dev-dependency
- it's used to enable the `approx` feature in tests
## Solution
- Don't specify a version in the dev-dependency. dependencies without a
version are ignored by cargo when publishing
- Gate all the tests that depend on the `approx` feature so that it
doesn't fail to compile when not enabled
- Also gate an import that wasn't used without `bevy_reflect`
## Testing
- with at least cargo 1.84: `cargo package -p bevy_math`
- `cd target/package/bevy_math_* && cargo test`
# Background
In `no_std` compatible crates, there is often an `std` feature which
will allow access to the standard library. Currently, with the `std`
feature _enabled_, the
[`std::prelude`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/prelude/index.html) is
implicitly imported in all modules. With the feature _disabled_, instead
the [`core::prelude`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/core/prelude/index.html)
is implicitly imported. This creates a subtle and pervasive issue where
`alloc` items _may_ be implicitly included (if `std` is enabled), or
must be explicitly included (if `std` is not enabled).
# Objective
- Make the implicit imports for `no_std` crates consistent regardless of
what features are/not enabled.
## Solution
- Replace the `cfg_attr` "double negative" `no_std` attribute with
conditional compilation to _include_ `std` as an external crate.
```rust
// Before
#![cfg_attr(not(feature = "std"), no_std)]
// After
#![no_std]
#[cfg(feature = "std")]
extern crate std;
```
- Fix imports that are currently broken but are only now visible with
the above fix.
## Testing
- CI
## Notes
I had previously used the "double negative" version of `no_std` based on
general consensus that it was "cleaner" within the Rust embedded
community. However, this implicit prelude issue likely was considered
when forming this consensus. I believe the reason why is the items most
affected by this issue are provided by the `alloc` crate, which is
rarely used within embedded but extensively used within Bevy.
# Objective
The way `Curve` presently achieves dyn-compatibility involves shoving
`Self: Sized` bounds on a bunch of methods to forbid them from appearing
in vtables. (This is called *explicit non-dispatchability*.) The `Curve`
trait probably also just has way too many methods on its own.
In the past, using extension traits instead to achieve similar
functionality has been discussed. The upshot is that this would allow
the "core" of the curve trait, on which all the automatic methods rely,
to live in a very simple dyn-compatible trait, while other functionality
is implemented by extensions. For instance, `dyn Curve<T>` cannot use
the `Sized` methods, but `Box<dyn Curve<T>>` is `Sized`, hence would
automatically implement the extension trait, containing the methods
which are currently non-dispatchable.
Other motivations for this include modularity and code organization: the
`Curve` trait itself has grown quite large with the addition of numerous
adaptors, and refactoring it to demonstrate the separation of
functionality that is already present makes a lot of sense. Furthermore,
resampling behavior in particular is dependent on special traits that
may be mimicked or analogized in user-space, and creating extension
traits to achieve similar behavior in user-space is something we ought
to encourage by example.
## Solution
`Curve` now contains only `domain` and the `sample` methods.
`CurveExt` has been created, and it contains all adaptors, along with
the other sampling convenience methods (`samples`, `sample_iter`, etc.).
It is implemented for all `C` where `C: Curve<T> + Sized`.
`CurveResampleExt` has been created, and it contains all resampling
methods. It is implemented for all `C` where `C: Curve<T> + ?Sized`.
## Testing
It compiles and `cargo doc` succeeds.
---
## Future work
- Consider writing extension traits for resampling curves in related
domains (e.g. resampling for `Curve<T>` where `T: Animatable` into an
`AnimatableKeyframeCurve`).
- `CurveExt` might be further broken down to separate the adaptor and
sampling methods.
---
## Migration Guide
`Curve` has been refactored so that much of its functionality is now in
extension traits. Adaptors such as `map`, `reparametrize`, `reverse`,
and so on now require importing `CurveExt`, while the resampling methods
`resample_*` require importing `CurveResampleExt`. Both of these new
traits are exported through `bevy::math::curve` and through
`bevy::math::prelude`.
# Objective
- Contributes to #15460
## Solution
- Added two new features, `std` (default) and `alloc`, gating `std` and
`alloc` behind them respectively.
- Added missing `f32` functions to `std_ops` as required. These `f32`
methods have been added to the `clippy.toml` deny list to aid in
`no_std` development.
## Testing
- CI
- `cargo clippy -p bevy_math --no-default-features --features libm
--target "x86_64-unknown-none"`
- `cargo test -p bevy_math --no-default-features --features libm`
- `cargo test -p bevy_math --no-default-features --features "libm,
alloc"`
- `cargo test -p bevy_math --no-default-features --features "libm,
alloc, std"`
- `cargo test -p bevy_math --no-default-features --features "std"`
## Notes
The following items require the `alloc` feature to be enabled:
- `CubicBSpline`
- `CubicBezier`
- `CubicCardinalSpline`
- `CubicCurve`
- `CubicGenerator`
- `CubicHermite`
- `CubicNurbs`
- `CyclicCubicGenerator`
- `RationalCurve`
- `RationalGenerator`
- `BoxedPolygon`
- `BoxedPolyline2d`
- `BoxedPolyline3d`
- `SampleCurve`
- `SampleAutoCurve`
- `UnevenSampleCurve`
- `UnevenSampleAutoCurve`
- `EvenCore`
- `UnevenCore`
- `ChunkedUnevenCore`
This requirement could be relaxed in certain cases, but I had erred on
the side of gating rather than modifying. Since `no_std` is a new set of
platforms we are adding support to, and the `alloc` feature is enabled
by default, this is not a breaking change.

# Objective
Currently, sample-interpolated curves (such as those used by the glTF
loader for animations) do unnecessary extra work when `sample_clamped`
is called, since their implementations of `sample_unchecked` are already
clamped. Eliminating this redundant sampling is a small, easy
performance win which doesn't compromise on the animation system's
internal usage of `sample_clamped`, which guarantees that it never
samples curves out-of-bounds.
## Solution
For sample-interpolated curves, define `sample_clamped` in the way
`sample_unchecked` is currently defined, and then redirect
`sample_unchecked` to `sample_clamped`. This is arguably a more
idiomatic way of using the `cores` as well, which is nice.
## Testing
Ran `many_foxes` to make sure I didn't break anything.
(Note: #15434 implements something very similar to this for functional
curve adaptors, which is why they aren't present in this PR.)
# Objective
Previously, there was basically no chance that the
explicitly-interpolating sample curve structs from the `Curve` API would
actually be `Reflect`. The reason for this is functional programming:
the structs contain an explicit interpolation `I: Fn(&T, &T, f32) -> T`
which, under typical circumstances, will never be `Reflect`, which
prevents the derive from realistically succeeding. In fact, they won't
be a lot of other things either, notably including both`Debug` and
`TypePath`, which are also required for reflection to succeed.
The goal of this PR is to weaken the implementations of reflection
traits for these structs so that they can implement `Reflect` under
reasonable circumstances. (Notably, they will still not be
`FromReflect`, which is unavoidable.)
## Solution
The function fields are marked as `#[reflect(ignore)]`, and the derive
macro for `Reflect` has `FromReflect` disabled. (This is not fully
optimal, but we don't presently have any kind of "read-only" attribute
for these fields.) Additionally, these structs receive custom `Debug`
and `TypePath` implementations that display the function's (unstable!)
type name instead of its value or type path (respectively). In the case
of `TypePath`, this is a bit janky, but the instability of `type_name`
won't generally present an issue for generics, which would have to be
registered manually in the type registry anyway, which is impossible
because the function type parameters cannot be named.
(And in general, the "blessed" route for such cases would generally
involve manually monomorphizing the function parameter away, which also
allows access to `FromReflect` etc. through very ordinary use of the
derive macro.)
## Testing
Tests in the new `bevy_math::curve::sample_curves` module guarantee that
these are actually `Reflect` under reasonable circumstances.
---
## Future changes
If and when function item types become `Default`, these types will need
to receive custom `FromReflect` implementations that exploit it. Such a
custom implementation would also be desirable if users start doing
things like wrapping function items in `Default`/`FromReflect` wrappers
that still implement a `Fn` trait.
Additionally, if function types become nameable in user-space, the
stance on `Debug`/`TypePath` may bear reexamination, since partial
monomorphization through wrappers would make implementing reflect traits
for function types potentially more viable.
