Gaffer Windows 0.59.0.0-beta
Pre-release
Pre-release
This updates the Windows Gaffer build to GafferHQ version 0.59.0.0. In addition to the changes introduced in versions 0.58.x and 0.59.0.0, the following changes are made to the Windows-specific build:
- Added support for the stats app.
- Added support for launching the debugger. Set the GAFFER_DEBUG environment variable to any value and the GAFFER_DEBUGGER environment variable to the path, including the
devenv
command, of your Visual Studiodevenv
installation. - Fixed the UI for the integer array (VectorDataPlugValueWidget) which was preventing the user from editing values.
- Fixed running AppleseedTest, StatsApplicationTest and SystemCommandTest. This only fixes Python imports, not the passing of the tests.
- Disabled Jemalloc by default. It appears Jemalloc versions prior to 5.2.1 (which includes the version Gaffer currently uses) have questionable reliability on Windows. Other DCC packages like Houdini for example, only use Jemalloc on Linux. This can be changed by setting
GAFFER_JEMALLOC
to 1 in thegaffer.bat
file if you would like to experiment with using Jemalloc.
