WebGLPointsLayer renderFrame and renderHitDetection will now draw
multiple worlds if the source and projection support wrapX.
Hit detection needs additional improvement. It stops working after
more than one wrap around the world. If 0 is the middle world, then
the hit detection works for worlds -1, 0, and -1, but not for worlds
> 2 or < -2.
The example has hit detection enabled, demonstrated with a colour
change on hover for the circle styles. When moving the mouse, the hit
detection is unreliable and flickers on/off. This needs improvement.
The webgl-points renderer test has been updated.
This updates ESLint and our shared eslint-config-openlayers to use Prettier. Most formatting changes were automatically applied with this:
npm run lint -- --fix
A few manual changes were required:
* In `examples/offscreen-canvas.js`, the `//eslint-disable-line` comment needed to be moved to the appropriate line to disable the error about the `'worker-loader!./offscreen-canvas.worker.js'` import.
* In `examples/webpack/exapmle-builder.js`, spaces could not be added after a couple `function`s for some reason. While editing this, I reworked `ExampleBuilder` to be a class.
* In `src/ol/format/WMSGetFeatureInfo.js`, the `// @ts-ignore` comment needed to be moved down one line so it applied to the `parsersNS` argument.
Turns out there are sometimes errors that will not prevent the
shader from functioning normally. As such, it is not possible
to simply throw when there are errors/warnings.
Since we are not logging to the console, these errors will have to stay hidden
unless the user requests them explicitly.
The hit detection render is now done against a canvas with half the
width/height of the main render. This still provides sufficient precision
while requiring a much smaller memory allocation (especially for
retina devices).
Various references were kept, preventing the layer and underlying
renderer and webgl context to be garbage collected.
Also, the Helper was simplified because it turns out deleting manually
all Webgl objects is useless: these objects will be released when
the context is garbage collected anyway.
Note: this touches the Layer and BaseLayer classes, as the following were
preventing the layer from being garbage collected:
* layer reference in the `state_` object in BaseLayer
* dangling listener for source change in Layer
Due to the fact that the points renderer does not know for sure
which attributes will be used for rendering, it is now mandatory
to provide both vertex/fragment shaders for rendering AND hit
detection.
The hit detection shaders should expect having an `a_hitColor`
that they should return to allow matching the feature uid.
This will be all one eventually by shader builders under the hood.
Now most attributes will be custom ones defined by the user of the renderer.
The hit detection is broken for now and still has to be fixed.
Also it is not possible anymore to give a texture to the renderer,
this will have to be fixed as well.
