PR #17898 disabled bindless support for `ExtendedMaterial`. This commit
adds it back. It also adds a new example, `extended_material_bindless`,
showing how to use it.
# Objective
Add web support to atmosphere by gating dual source blending and using a
macro to determine the target platform.
The main objective of this PR is to ensure that users of Bevy's
atmosphere feature can also run it in a web-based context where WebGPU
support is enabled.
## Solution
- Make use of the `#[cfg(not(target_arch = "wasm32"))]` macro to gate
the dual source blending, as this is not (yet) supported in web
browsers.
- Rename the function `sample_sun_illuminance` to `sample_sun_radiance`
and move calls out of conditionals to ensure the shader compiles and
runs in both native and web-based contexts.
- Moved the multiplication of the transmittance out when calculating the
sun color, because calling the `sample_sun_illuminance` function was
causing issues in web. Overall this results in cleaner code and more
readable.
## Testing
- Tested by building a wasm target and loading it in a web page with
Vite dev server using `mate-h/bevy-webgpu` repo template.
- Tested the native build with `cargo run --example atmosphere` to
ensure it still works with dual source blending.

contexts:

## Objective
Fix #18714.
## Solution
Make sure `SkinUniforms::prev_buffer` is resized at the same time as
`current_buffer`.
There will be a one frame visual glitch when the buffers are resized,
since `prev_buffer` is incorrectly initialised with the current joint
transforms.
Note that #18074 includes the same fix. I'm assuming this smaller PR
will land first.
## Testing
See repro instructions in #18714. Tested on `animated_mesh`,
`many_foxes`, `custom_skinned_mesh`, Win10/Nvidia with Vulkan,
WebGL/Chrome, WebGPU/Chrome.
## Objective
Fix motion blur not working on skinned meshes.
## Solution
`set_mesh_motion_vector_flags` can set
`RenderMeshInstanceFlags::HAS_PREVIOUS_SKIN` after specialization has
already cached the material. This can lead to
`MeshPipelineKey::HAS_PREVIOUS_SKIN` never getting set, disabling motion
blur.
The fix is to make sure `set_mesh_motion_vector_flags` happens before
specialization.
Note that the bug is fixed in a different way by #18074, which includes
other fixes but is a much larger change.
## Testing
Open the `animated_mesh` example and add these components to the
`Camera3d` entity:
```rust
MotionBlur {
shutter_angle: 5.0,
samples: 2,
#[cfg(all(feature = "webgl2", target_arch = "wasm32", not(feature = "webgpu")))]
_webgl2_padding: Default::default(),
},
#[cfg(all(feature = "webgl2", target_arch = "wasm32", not(feature = "webgpu")))]
Msaa::Off,
```
Tested on `animated_mesh`, `many_foxes`, `custom_skinned_mesh`,
Win10/Nvidia with Vulkan, WebGL/Chrome, WebGPU/Chrome. Note that testing
`many_foxes` WebGL requires #18715.
# Objective
Make all feature gated bindings consistent with each other
## Solution
Make the bindings of fields gated by `pbr_specular_textures` feature
consistent with the other gated bindings
# Objective
- Cleanup
## Solution
- Remove completely unused weak_handle
(`MESH_PREPROCESS_TYPES_SHADER_HANDLE`). This value is not used
directly, and is never populated.
- Delete multiple loads of `BUILD_INDIRECT_PARAMS_SHADER_HANDLE`. We
load it three times right after one another. This looks to be a
copy-paste error.
## Testing
- None.
# Objective
My ecosystem crate, bevy_mod_outline, currently uses `SetMeshBindGroup`
as part of its custom rendering pipeline. I would like to allow for
possibility that, due to changes in 0.16, I need to customise the
behaviour of `SetMeshBindGroup` in order to make it work. However, not
all of the symbol needed to implement this render command are public
outside of Bevy.
## Solution
- Include `MorphIndices` in re-export list. I feel this is morally
equivalent to `SkinUniforms` already being exported.
- Change `MorphIndex::index` field to be public. I feel this is morally
equivalent to the `SkinByteOffset::byte_offset` field already being
public.
- Change `RenderMeshIntances::mesh_asset_id()` to be public (although
since all the fields of `RenderMeshInstances` are public it's possible
to work around this one by reimplementing).
These changes exclude:
- Making any change to the `RenderLightmaps` type as I don't need to
bind the light-maps for my use-case and I wanted to keep these changes
minimal. It has a private field which would need to be public or have
access methods.
- The changes already included in #18612.
## Testing
Confirmed that a copy of `SetMeshBindGroup` can be compiled outside of
Bevy with these changes, provided that the light-map code is removed.

# Objective
Fixes#17872
## Solution
This should have basically no impact on static scenes. We can optimize
more later if anything comes up. Needing to iterate the two level bin is
a bit unfortunate but shouldn't matter for apps that use a single
camera.
# Objective
Fixes#17986Fixes#18608
## Solution
Guard against situations where an extracted mesh does not have an
associated material. The way that mesh is dependent on the material api
(although decoupled) here is a bit unfortunate and we might consider
ways in the future to support these material features without this
indirect dependency.
# Objective
Unlike for their helper typers, the import paths for
`unique_array::UniqueEntityArray`, `unique_slice::UniqueEntitySlice`,
`unique_vec::UniqueEntityVec`, `hash_set::EntityHashSet`,
`hash_map::EntityHashMap`, `index_set::EntityIndexSet`,
`index_map::EntityIndexMap` are quite redundant.
When looking at the structure of `hashbrown`, we can also see that while
both `HashSet` and `HashMap` have their own modules, the main types
themselves are re-exported to the crate level.
## Solution
Re-export the types in their shared `entity` parent module, and simplify
the imports where they're used.
# Objective
As of bevy 0.16-dev, the pre-existing public function
`bevy::pbr::setup_morph_and_skinning_defs()` is now passed a boolean
flag called `skins_use_uniform_buffers`. The value of this boolean is
computed by the function
`bevy_pbr::render::skin::skins_use_uniform_buffers()`, but it is not
exported publicly.
Found while porting
[bevy_mod_outline](https://github.com/komadori/bevy_mod_outline) to
0.16.
## Solution
Add `skin::skins_use_uniform_buffers` to the re-export list of
`bevy_pbr::render`.
## Testing
Confirmed test program can access public API.
# Objective
The flags are referenced later outside of the VERTEX_UVS ifdef/endif
block. The current behavior causes the pre-pass shader to fail to
compile when UVs are not present in the mesh, such as when using a
`LineStrip` to render a grid.
Fixes#18600
## Solution
Move the definition of the `flags` outside of the ifdef/endif block.
## Testing
Ran a modified `3d_example` that used a mesh and material with
alpha_mode blend, `LineStrip` topology, and no UVs.
# Objective
Requires are currently more verbose than they need to be. People would
like to define inline component values. Additionally, the current
`#[require(Foo(custom_constructor))]` and `#[require(Foo(|| Foo(10))]`
syntax doesn't really make sense within the context of the Rust type
system. #18309 was an attempt to improve ergonomics for some cases, but
it came at the cost of even more weirdness / unintuitive behavior. Our
approach as a whole needs a rethink.
## Solution
Rework the `#[require()]` syntax to make more sense. This is a breaking
change, but I think it will make the system easier to learn, while also
improving ergonomics substantially:
```rust
#[derive(Component)]
#[require(
A, // this will use A::default()
B(1), // inline tuple-struct value
C { value: 1 }, // inline named-struct value
D::Variant, // inline enum variant
E::SOME_CONST, // inline associated const
F::new(1), // inline constructor
G = returns_g(), // an expression that returns G
H = SomethingElse::new(), // expression returns SomethingElse, where SomethingElse: Into<H>
)]
struct Foo;
```
## Migration Guide
Custom-constructor requires should use the new expression-style syntax:
```rust
// before
#[derive(Component)]
#[require(A(returns_a))]
struct Foo;
// after
#[derive(Component)]
#[require(A = returns_a())]
struct Foo;
```
Inline-closure-constructor requires should use the inline value syntax
where possible:
```rust
// before
#[derive(Component)]
#[require(A(|| A(10))]
struct Foo;
// after
#[derive(Component)]
#[require(A(10)]
struct Foo;
```
In cases where that is not possible, use the expression-style syntax:
```rust
// before
#[derive(Component)]
#[require(A(|| A(10))]
struct Foo;
// after
#[derive(Component)]
#[require(A = A(10)]
struct Foo;
```

# Objective
- The prepass pipeline has a generic bound on the specialize function
but 95% of it doesn't need it
## Solution
- Move most of the fields to an internal struct and use a separate
specialize function for those fields
## Testing
- Ran the 3d_scene and it worked like before
---
## Migration Guide
If you were using a field of the `PrepassPipeline`, most of them have
now been move to `PrepassPipeline::internal`.
## Notes
Here's the cargo bloat size comparison (from this tool
https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/discussions/14864):
```
before:
(
"<bevy_pbr::prepass::PrepassPipeline<M> as bevy_render::render_resource::pipeline_specializer::SpecializedMeshPipeline>::specialize",
25416,
0.05582993,
),
after:
(
"<bevy_pbr::prepass::PrepassPipeline<M> as bevy_render::render_resource::pipeline_specializer::SpecializedMeshPipeline>::specialize",
2496,
0.005490916,
),
(
"bevy_pbr::prepass::PrepassPipelineInternal::specialize",
11444,
0.025175499,
),
```
The size for the specialize function that is generic is now much
smaller, so users won't need to recompile it for every material.
# Objective
- Fixes https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/11682
## Solution
- https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/4086 introduced an
optimization to not do redundant calculations, but did not take into
account changes to the resource `global_lights`. I believe that my patch
includes the optimization benefit but adds the required nuance to fix
said bug.
## Testing
The example originally given by
[@kirillsurkov](https://github.com/kirillsurkov) and then updated by me
to bevy 15.3 here:
https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/11682#issuecomment-2746287416
will not have shadows without this patch:
```rust
use bevy::prelude::*;
#[derive(Resource)]
struct State {
x: f32,
}
fn main() {
App::new()
.add_plugins(DefaultPlugins)
.add_systems(Startup, setup)
.add_systems(Update, update)
.insert_resource(State { x: -40.0 })
.run();
}
fn setup(
mut commands: Commands,
mut meshes: ResMut<Assets<Mesh>>,
mut materials: ResMut<Assets<StandardMaterial>>,
) {
commands.spawn((
Mesh3d(meshes.add(Circle::new(4.0))),
MeshMaterial3d(materials.add(Color::WHITE)),
));
commands.spawn((
Mesh3d(meshes.add(Cuboid::new(1.0, 1.0, 1.0))),
MeshMaterial3d(materials.add(Color::linear_rgb(0.0, 1.0, 0.0))),
));
commands.spawn((
PointLight {
shadows_enabled: true,
..default()
},
Transform::from_xyz(4.0, 8.0, 4.0),
));
commands.spawn(Camera3d::default());
}
fn update(mut state: ResMut<State>, mut camera: Query<&mut Transform, With<Camera3d>>) {
let mut camera = camera.single_mut().unwrap();
let t = Vec3::new(state.x, 0.0, 10.0);
camera.translation = t;
camera.look_at(t - Vec3::Z, Vec3::Y);
state.x = 0.0;
}
```

# Objective
- Fixes https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/18332
## Solution
- Move specialize_shadows to ManageViews so that it can run after
prepare_lights, so that shadow views exist for specialization.
- Unfortunately this means that specialize_shadows is no longer in
PrepareMeshes like the rest of the specialization systems.
## Testing
- Ran anti_aliasing example, switched between the different AA options,
observed no glitches.
# Objective
For materials that aren't being used or a visible entity doesn't have an
instance of, we were unnecessarily constantly checking whether they
needed specialization, saying yes (because the material had never been
specialized for that entity), and failing to look up the material
instance.
## Solution
If an entity doesn't have an instance of the material, it can't possibly
need specialization, so exit early before spending time doing the check.
Fixes#18388.
# Objective
Now that #13432 has been merged, it's important we update our reflected
types to properly opt into this feature. If we do not, then this could
cause issues for users downstream who want to make use of
reflection-based cloning.
## Solution
This PR is broken into 4 commits:
1. Add `#[reflect(Clone)]` on all types marked `#[reflect(opaque)]` that
are also `Clone`. This is mandatory as these types would otherwise cause
the cloning operation to fail for any type that contains it at any
depth.
2. Update the reflection example to suggest adding `#[reflect(Clone)]`
on opaque types.
3. Add `#[reflect(clone)]` attributes on all fields marked
`#[reflect(ignore)]` that are also `Clone`. This prevents the ignored
field from causing the cloning operation to fail.
Note that some of the types that contain these fields are also `Clone`,
and thus can be marked `#[reflect(Clone)]`. This makes the
`#[reflect(clone)]` attribute redundant. However, I think it's safer to
keep it marked in the case that the `Clone` impl/derive is ever removed.
I'm open to removing them, though, if people disagree.
4. Finally, I added `#[reflect(Clone)]` on all types that are also
`Clone`. While not strictly necessary, it enables us to reduce the
generated output since we can just call `Clone::clone` directly instead
of calling `PartialReflect::reflect_clone` on each variant/field. It
also means we benefit from any optimizations or customizations made in
the `Clone` impl, including directly dereferencing `Copy` values and
increasing reference counters.
Along with that change I also took the liberty of adding any missing
registrations that I saw could be applied to the type as well, such as
`Default`, `PartialEq`, and `Hash`. There were hundreds of these to
edit, though, so it's possible I missed quite a few.
That last commit is **_massive_**. There were nearly 700 types to
update. So it's recommended to review the first three before moving onto
that last one.
Additionally, I can break the last commit off into its own PR or into
smaller PRs, but I figured this would be the easiest way of doing it
(and in a timely manner since I unfortunately don't have as much time as
I used to for code contributions).
## Testing
You can test locally with a `cargo check`:
```
cargo check --workspace --all-features
```
I mistakenly thought that with the wgpu upgrade we'd have
`PARTIALLY_BOUND_BINDING_ARRAY` everywhere. Unfortunately this is not
the case. This PR adds a workaround back in.
Closes#18098.
Less data accessed and compared gives better batching performance.
# Objective
- Use a smaller id to represent the lightmap in batch data to enable a
faster implementation of draw streams.
- Improve batching performance for 3D sorted render phases.
## Solution
- 3D batching can use `LightmapSlabIndex` (a `NonMaxU32` which is 4
bytes) instead of the lightmap `AssetId<Image>` (an enum where the
largest variant is a 16-byte UUID) to discern the ability to batch.
## Testing
Tested main (yellow) vs this PR (red) on an M4 Max using the
`many_cubes` example with `WGPU_SETTINGS_PRIO=webgl2` to avoid
GPU-preprocessing, and modifying the materials in `many_cubes` to have
`AlphaMode::Blend` so that they would rely on the less efficient sorted
render phase batching.

/>
A 44.75us or 7.5% reduction in median execution time of the batch and
prepare sorted render phase system for the `Transparent3d` phase
(handling 160k cubes).
---
## Migration Guide
- Changed: `RenderLightmap::new()` no longer takes an `AssetId<Image>`
argument for the asset id of the lightmap image.
# 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
Because `prepare_assets::<T>` had a mutable reference to the
`RenderAssetBytesPerFrame` resource, no render asset preparation could
happen in parallel. This PR fixes this by using an `AtomicUsize` to
count bytes written (if there's a limit in place), so that the system
doesn't need mutable access.

## Testing
- Tested on a local project (with and without limiting enabled)
- Someone with more knowledge of wgpu/underlying driver guts should
confirm that this doesn't actually bite us by introducing contention
(i.e. if buffer writing really *should be* serial).
# Overview
Fixes https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/17869.
# Summary
`WGPU_SETTINGS_PRIO` changes various limits on `RenderDevice`. This is
useful to simulate platforms with lower limits.
However, some plugins only check the limits on `RenderAdapter` (the
actual GPU) - these limits are not affected by `WGPU_SETTINGS_PRIO`. So
the plugins try to use features that are unavailable and wgpu says "oh
no". See https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/17869 for details.
The PR adds various checks on `RenderDevice` limits. This is enough to
get most examples working, but some are not fixed (see below).
# Testing

# Objective
- Fixes#15460 (will open new issues for further `no_std` efforts)
- Supersedes #17715
## Solution
- Threaded in new features as required
- Made certain crates optional but default enabled
- Removed `compile-check-no-std` from internal `ci` tool since GitHub CI
can now simply check `bevy` itself now
- Added CI task to check `bevy` on `thumbv6m-none-eabi` to ensure
`portable-atomic` support is still valid [^1]
[^1]: This may be controversial, since it could be interpreted as
implying Bevy will maintain support for `thumbv6m-none-eabi` going
forward. In reality, just like `x86_64-unknown-none`, this is a
[canary](https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/canary_in_a_coal_mine) target to
make it clear when `portable-atomic` no longer works as intended (fixing
atomic support on atomically challenged platforms). If a PR comes
through and makes supporting this class of platforms impossible, then
this CI task can be removed. I however wager this won't be a problem.
## Testing
- CI
---
## Release Notes
Bevy now has support for `no_std` directly from the `bevy` crate.
Users can disable default features and enable a new `default_no_std`
feature instead, allowing `bevy` to be used in `no_std` applications and
libraries.
```toml
# Bevy for `no_std` platforms
bevy = { version = "0.16", default-features = false, features = ["default_no_std"] }
```
`default_no_std` enables certain required features, such as `libm` and
`critical-section`, and as many optional crates as possible (currently
just `bevy_state`). For atomically-challenged platforms such as the
Raspberry Pi Pico, `portable-atomic` will be used automatically.
For library authors, we recommend depending on `bevy` with
`default-features = false` to allow `std` and `no_std` users to both
depend on your crate. Here are some recommended features a library crate
may want to expose:
```toml
[features]
# Most users will be on a platform which has `std` and can use the more-powerful `async_executor`.
default = ["std", "async_executor"]
# Features for typical platforms.
std = ["bevy/std"]
async_executor = ["bevy/async_executor"]
# Features for `no_std` platforms.
libm = ["bevy/libm"]
critical-section = ["bevy/critical-section"]
[dependencies]
# We disable default features to ensure we don't accidentally enable `std` on `no_std` targets, for example.
bevy = { version = "0.16", default-features = false }
```
While this is verbose, it gives the maximum control to end-users to
decide how they wish to use Bevy on their platform.
We encourage library authors to experiment with `no_std` support. For
libraries relying exclusively on `bevy` and no other dependencies, it
may be as simple as adding `#![no_std]` to your `lib.rs` and exposing
features as above! Bevy can also provide many `std` types, such as
`HashMap`, `Mutex`, and `Instant` on all platforms. See
`bevy::platform_support` for details on what's available out of the box!
## Migration Guide
- If you were previously relying on `bevy` with default features
disabled, you may need to enable the `std` and `async_executor`
features.
- `bevy_reflect` has had its `bevy` feature removed. If you were relying
on this feature, simply enable `smallvec` and `smol_str` instead.

In 0.11 you could easily access the inverse model matrix inside a WGSL
shader with `transpose(mesh.inverse_transpose_model)`. This was changed
in 0.12 when `inverse_transpose_model` was removed and it's now not as
straightfoward. I wrote a helper function for my own code and thought
I'd submit a pull request in case it would be helpful to others.
## Objective
`insert_or_spawn_batch` is due to be deprecated eventually (#15704), and
removing uses internally will make that easier.
## Solution
Replaced internal uses of `insert_or_spawn_batch` with
`try_insert_batch` (non-panicking variant because
`insert_or_spawn_batch` didn't panic).
All of the internal uses are in rendering code. Since retained rendering
was meant to get rid non-opaque entity IDs, I assume the code was just
using `insert_or_spawn_batch` because `insert_batch` didn't exist and
not because it actually wanted to spawn something. However, I am *not*
confident in my ability to judge rendering code.
# Objective
Component `require()` IDE integration is fully broken, as of #16575.
## Solution
This reverts us back to the previous "put the docs on Component trait"
impl. This _does_ reduce the accessibility of the required components in
rust docs, but the complete erasure of "required component IDE
experience" is not worth the price of slightly increased prominence of
requires in docs.
Additionally, Rust Analyzer has recently started including derive
attributes in suggestions, so we aren't losing that benefit of the
proc_macro attribute impl.
This reverts commit 0b5302d96a.
# Objective
- Fixes#18158
- #17482 introduced rendering changes and was merged a bit too fast
## Solution
- Revert #17482 so that it can be redone and rendering changes discussed
before being merged. This will make it easier to compare changes with
main in the known "valid" state
This is not an issue with the work done in #17482 that is still
interesting
# Objective
Transparently uses simple `EnvironmentMapLight`s to mimic
`AmbientLight`s. Implements the first part of #17468, but I can
implement hemispherical lights in this PR too if needed.
## Solution
- A function `EnvironmentMapLight::solid_color(&mut Assets<Image>,
Color)` is provided to make an environment light with a solid color.
- A new system is added to `SimulationLightSystems` that maps
`AmbientLight`s on views or the world to a corresponding
`EnvironmentMapLight`.
I have never worked with (or on) Bevy before, so nitpicky comments on
how I did things are appreciated :).
## Testing
Testing was done on a modified version of the `3d/lighting` example,
where I removed all lights except the ambient light. I have not included
the example, but can if required.
## Migration
`bevy_pbr::AmbientLight` has been deprecated, so all usages of it should
be replaced by a `bevy_pbr::EnvironmentMapLight` created with
`EnvironmentMapLight::solid_color` placed on the camera. There is no
alternative to ambient lights as resources.
This commit makes the
`mark_meshes_as_changed_if_their_materials_changed` system use the new
`AssetChanged<MeshMaterial3d>` query filter in addition to
`Changed<MeshMaterial3d>`. This ensures that we update the
`MeshInputUniform`, which contains the bindless material slot. Updating
the `MeshInputUniform` fixes problems that occurred when the
`MeshBindGroupAllocator` reallocated meshes in such a way as to change
their bindless slot.
Closes#18102.
# Objective
Fixes https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/17590.
## Solution
`prepare_volumetric_fog_uniforms` adds a uniform for each combination of
fog volume and view. But it only allocated enough uniforms for one fog
volume per view.
## Testing
Ran the `volumetric_fog` example with 1/2/3/4 fog volumes. Also checked
the `fog_volumes` and `scrolling_fog` examples (without multiple
volumes). Win10/Vulkan/Nvidia.
To test multiple views I tried adding fog volumes to the `split_screen`
example. This doesn't quite work - the fog should be centred on the fox,
but instead it's centred on the window. Same result with and without the
PR, so I'm assuming it's a separate bug.

# Objective
As discussed in #14275, Bevy is currently too prone to panic, and makes
the easy / beginner-friendly way to do a large number of operations just
to panic on failure.
This is seriously frustrating in library code, but also slows down
development, as many of the `Query::single` panics can actually safely
be an early return (these panics are often due to a small ordering issue
or a change in game state.
More critically, in most "finished" products, panics are unacceptable:
any unexpected failures should be handled elsewhere. That's where the
new
With the advent of good system error handling, we can now remove this.
Note: I was instrumental in a) introducing this idea in the first place
and b) pushing to make the panicking variant the default. The
introduction of both `let else` statements in Rust and the fancy system
error handling work in 0.16 have changed my mind on the right balance
here.
## Solution
1. Make `Query::single` and `Query::single_mut` (and other random
related methods) return a `Result`.
2. Handle all of Bevy's internal usage of these APIs.
3. Deprecate `Query::get_single` and friends, since we've moved their
functionality to the nice names.
4. Add detailed advice on how to best handle these errors.
Generally I like the diff here, although `get_single().unwrap()` in
tests is a bit of a downgrade.
## Testing
I've done a global search for `.single` to track down any missed
deprecated usages.
As to whether or not all the migrations were successful, that's what CI
is for :)
## Future work
~~Rename `Query::get_single` and friends to `Query::single`!~~
~~I've opted not to do this in this PR, and smear it across two releases
in order to ease the migration. Successive deprecations are much easier
to manage than the semantics and types shifting under your feet.~~
Cart has convinced me to change my mind on this; see
https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/18082#discussion_r1974536085.
## Migration guide
`Query::single`, `Query::single_mut` and their `QueryState` equivalents
now return a `Result`. Generally, you'll want to:
1. Use Bevy 0.16's system error handling to return a `Result` using the
`?` operator.
2. Use a `let else Ok(data)` block to early return if it's an expected
failure.
3. Use `unwrap()` or `Ok` destructuring inside of tests.
The old `Query::get_single` (etc) methods which did this have been
deprecated.
## Objective
Alternative to #18001.
- Now that systems can handle the `?` operator, `get_entity` returning
`Result` would be more useful than `Option`.
- With `get_entity` being more flexible, combined with entity commands
now checking the entity's existence automatically, the panic in `entity`
isn't really necessary.
## Solution
- Changed `Commands::get_entity` to return `Result<EntityCommands,
EntityDoesNotExistError>`.
- Removed panic from `Commands::entity`.
Even though opaque deferred entities aren't placed into the `Opaque3d`
bin, we still want to cache them as though they were, so that we don't
have to re-queue them every frame. This commit implements that logic,
reducing the time of `queue_material_meshes` to near-zero on Caldera.
Currently, the structure-level `#[uniform]` attribute of `AsBindGroup`
creates a binding array of individual buffers, each of which contains
data for a single material. A more efficient approach would be to
provide a single buffer with an array containing all of the data for all
materials in the bind group. Because `StandardMaterial` uses
`#[uniform]`, this can be notably inefficient with large numbers of
materials.
This patch introduces a new attribute on `AsBindGroup`, `#[data]`, which
works identically to `#[uniform]` except that it concatenates all the
data into a single buffer that the material bind group allocator itself
manages. It also converts `StandardMaterial` to use this new
functionality. This effectively provides the "material data in arrays"
feature.
# Objective
Allow prepass to run without ATTRIBUTE_NORMAL.
This is needed for custom materials with non-standard vertex attributes.
For example a voxel material with manually packed vertex data.
Fixes#13054.
This PR covers the first part of the **stale** PR #13569 to only focus
on fixing #13054.
## Solution
- Only push normals `vertex_attributes` when the layout contains
`Mesh::ATTRIBUTE_NORMAL`
## Testing
- Did you test these changes? If so, how?
**Tested the fix on my own project with a mesh without normal
attribute.**
- Are there any parts that need more testing?
**I don't think so.**
- How can other people (reviewers) test your changes? Is there anything
specific they need to know?
**Prepass should not be blocked on a mesh without normal attributes
(with or without custom material).**
- If relevant, what platforms did you test these changes on, and are
there any important ones you can't test?
**Probably irrelevant, but Windows/Vulkan.**
# Objective
- Fixes#17960
## Solution
- Followed the [edition upgrade
guide](https://doc.rust-lang.org/edition-guide/editions/transitioning-an-existing-project-to-a-new-edition.html)
## Testing
- CI

## Summary of Changes
### Documentation Indentation
When using lists in documentation, proper indentation is now linted for.
This means subsequent lines within the same list item must start at the
same indentation level as the item.
```rust
/* Valid */
/// - Item 1
/// Run-on sentence.
/// - Item 2
struct Foo;
/* Invalid */
/// - Item 1
/// Run-on sentence.
/// - Item 2
struct Foo;
```
### Implicit `!` to `()` Conversion
`!` (the never return type, returned by `panic!`, etc.) no longer
implicitly converts to `()`. This is particularly painful for systems
with `todo!` or `panic!` statements, as they will no longer be functions
returning `()` (or `Result<()>`), making them invalid systems for
functions like `add_systems`. The ideal fix would be to accept functions
returning `!` (or rather, _not_ returning), but this is blocked on the
[stabilisation of the `!` type
itself](https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/primitive.never.html), which is
not done.
The "simple" fix would be to add an explicit `-> ()` to system
signatures (e.g., `|| { todo!() }` becomes `|| -> () { todo!() }`).
However, this is _also_ banned, as there is an existing lint which (IMO,
incorrectly) marks this as an unnecessary annotation.
So, the "fix" (read: workaround) is to put these kinds of `|| -> ! { ...
}` closuers into variables and give the variable an explicit type (e.g.,
`fn()`).
```rust
// Valid
let system: fn() = || todo!("Not implemented yet!");
app.add_systems(..., system);
// Invalid
app.add_systems(..., || todo!("Not implemented yet!"));
```
### Temporary Variable Lifetimes
The order in which temporary variables are dropped has changed. The
simple fix here is _usually_ to just assign temporaries to a named
variable before use.
### `gen` is a keyword
We can no longer use the name `gen` as it is reserved for a future
generator syntax. This involved replacing uses of the name `gen` with
`r#gen` (the raw-identifier syntax).
### Formatting has changed
Use statements have had the order of imports changed, causing a
substantial +/-3,000 diff when applied. For now, I have opted-out of
this change by amending `rustfmt.toml`
```toml
style_edition = "2021"
```
This preserves the original formatting for now, reducing the size of
this PR. It would be a simple followup to update this to 2024 and run
`cargo fmt`.
### New `use<>` Opt-Out Syntax
Lifetimes are now implicitly included in RPIT types. There was a handful
of instances where it needed to be added to satisfy the borrow checker,
but there may be more cases where it _should_ be added to avoid
breakages in user code.
### `MyUnitStruct { .. }` is an invalid pattern
Previously, you could match against unit structs (and unit enum
variants) with a `{ .. }` destructuring. This is no longer valid.
### Pretty much every use of `ref` and `mut` are gone
Pattern binding has changed to the point where these terms are largely
unused now. They still serve a purpose, but it is far more niche now.
### `iter::repeat(...).take(...)` is bad
New lint recommends using the more explicit `iter::repeat_n(..., ...)`
instead.
## Migration Guide
The lifetimes of functions using return-position impl-trait (RPIT) are
likely _more_ conservative than they had been previously. If you
encounter lifetime issues with such a function, please create an issue
to investigate the addition of `+ use<...>`.

_actually_ changed.

# Objective
`Eq`/`PartialEq` are currently implemented for `MeshMaterial{2|3}d` only
through the derive macro. Since we don't have perfect derive yet, the
impls are only present for `M: Eq` and `M: PartialEq`. On the other
hand, I want to be able to compare material components for my toy
reactivity project.
## Solution
Switch to manual `Eq`/`PartialEq` impl.
## Testing
Boy I hope this didn't break anything!
