Fixes#6931
Continues #6954 by squashing `Msaa` to a flat enum
Helps out #7215
# Solution
```
pub enum Msaa {
Off = 1,
#[default]
Sample4 = 4,
}
```
# Changelog
- Modified
- `Msaa` is now enum
- Defaults to 4 samples

After #6503, bevy_render uses the `send_blocking` method introduced in async-channel 1.7, but depended only on ^1.4.
I saw this after pulling main without running cargo update.
# Objective
- Fix minimum dependency version of async-channel
## Solution
- Bump async-channel version constraint to ^1.8, which is currently the latest version.
NOTE: Both bevy_ecs and bevy_tasks also depend on async-channel but they didn't use any newer features.
# Objective
Fixes#3184. Fixes#6640. Fixes#4798. Using `Query::par_for_each(_mut)` currently requires a `batch_size` parameter, which affects how it chunks up large archetypes and tables into smaller chunks to run in parallel. Tuning this value is difficult, as the performance characteristics entirely depends on the state of the `World` it's being run on. Typically, users will just use a flat constant and just tune it by hand until it performs well in some benchmarks. However, this is both error prone and risks overfitting the tuning on that benchmark.
This PR proposes a naive automatic batch-size computation based on the current state of the `World`.
## Background
`Query::par_for_each(_mut)` schedules a new Task for every archetype or table that it matches. Archetypes/tables larger than the batch size are chunked into smaller tasks. Assuming every entity matched by the query has an identical workload, this makes the worst case scenario involve using a batch size equal to the size of the largest matched archetype or table. Conversely, a batch size of `max {archetype, table} size / thread count * COUNT_PER_THREAD` is likely the sweetspot where the overhead of scheduling tasks is minimized, at least not without grouping small archetypes/tables together.
There is also likely a strict minimum batch size below which the overhead of scheduling these tasks is heavier than running the entire thing single-threaded.
## Solution
- [x] Remove the `batch_size` from `Query(State)::par_for_each` and friends.
- [x] Add a check to compute `batch_size = max {archeytpe/table} size / thread count * COUNT_PER_THREAD`
- [x] ~~Panic if thread count is 0.~~ Defer to `for_each` if the thread count is 1 or less.
- [x] Early return if there is no matched table/archetype.
- [x] Add override option for users have queries that strongly violate the initial assumption that all iterated entities have an equal workload.
---
## Changelog
Changed: `Query::par_for_each(_mut)` has been changed to `Query::par_iter(_mut)` and will now automatically try to produce a batch size for callers based on the current `World` state.
## Migration Guide
The `batch_size` parameter for `Query(State)::par_for_each(_mut)` has been removed. These calls will automatically compute a batch size for you. Remove these parameters from all calls to these functions.
Before:
```rust
fn parallel_system(query: Query<&MyComponent>) {
query.par_for_each(32, |comp| {
...
});
}
```
After:
```rust
fn parallel_system(query: Query<&MyComponent>) {
query.par_iter().for_each(|comp| {
...
});
}
```

## Problem
`extract_uinodes` checks if an image is loaded for nodes without images
## Solution
Move the image loading skip check so that it is only performed for nodes with a `UiImage` component.
# Objective
- Implement pipelined rendering
- Fixes#5082
- Fixes#4718
## User Facing Description
Bevy now implements piplelined rendering! Pipelined rendering allows the app logic and rendering logic to run on different threads leading to large gains in performance.
![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/2180432/202049871-3c00b801-58ab-448f-93fd-471e30aba55f.png)
*tracy capture of many_foxes example*
To use pipelined rendering, you just need to add the `PipelinedRenderingPlugin`. If you're using `DefaultPlugins` then it will automatically be added for you on all platforms except wasm. Bevy does not currently support multithreading on wasm which is needed for this feature to work. If you aren't using `DefaultPlugins` you can add the plugin manually.
```rust
use bevy::prelude::*;
use bevy::render::pipelined_rendering::PipelinedRenderingPlugin;
fn main() {
App::new()
// whatever other plugins you need
.add_plugin(RenderPlugin)
// needs to be added after RenderPlugin
.add_plugin(PipelinedRenderingPlugin)
.run();
}
```
If for some reason pipelined rendering needs to be removed. You can also disable the plugin the normal way.
```rust
use bevy::prelude::*;
use bevy::render::pipelined_rendering::PipelinedRenderingPlugin;
fn main() {
App::new.add_plugins(DefaultPlugins.build().disable::<PipelinedRenderingPlugin>());
}
```
### A setup function was added to plugins
A optional plugin lifecycle function was added to the `Plugin trait`. This function is called after all plugins have been built, but before the app runner is called. This allows for some final setup to be done. In the case of pipelined rendering, the function removes the sub app from the main app and sends it to the render thread.
```rust
struct MyPlugin;
impl Plugin for MyPlugin {
fn build(&self, app: &mut App) {
}
// optional function
fn setup(&self, app: &mut App) {
// do some final setup before runner is called
}
}
```
### A Stage for Frame Pacing
In the `RenderExtractApp` there is a stage labelled `BeforeIoAfterRenderStart` that systems can be added to. The specific use case for this stage is for a frame pacing system that can delay the start of main app processing in render bound apps to reduce input latency i.e. "frame pacing". This is not currently built into bevy, but exists as `bevy`
```text
|-------------------------------------------------------------------|
| | BeforeIoAfterRenderStart | winit events | main schedule |
| extract |---------------------------------------------------------|
| | extract commands | rendering schedule |
|-------------------------------------------------------------------|
```
### Small API additions
* `Schedule::remove_stage`
* `App::insert_sub_app`
* `App::remove_sub_app`
* `TaskPool::scope_with_executor`
## Problems and Solutions
### Moving render app to another thread
Most of the hard bits for this were done with the render redo. This PR just sends the render app back and forth through channels which seems to work ok. I originally experimented with using a scope to run the render task. It was cuter, but that approach didn't allow render to start before i/o processing. So I switched to using channels. There is much complexity in the coordination that needs to be done, but it's worth it. By moving rendering during i/o processing the frame times should be much more consistent in render bound apps. See https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/4691.
### Unsoundness with Sending World with NonSend resources
Dropping !Send things on threads other than the thread they were spawned on is considered unsound. The render world doesn't have any nonsend resources. So if we tell the users to "pretty please don't spawn nonsend resource on the render world", we can avoid this problem.
More seriously there is this https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/6534 pr, which patches the unsoundness by aborting the app if a nonsend resource is dropped on the wrong thread. ~~That PR should probably be merged before this one.~~ For a longer term solution we have this discussion going https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/discussions/6552.
### NonSend Systems in render world
The render world doesn't have any !Send resources, but it does have a non send system. While Window is Send, winit does have some API's that can only be accessed on the main thread. `prepare_windows` in the render schedule thus needs to be scheduled on the main thread. Currently we run nonsend systems by running them on the thread the TaskPool::scope runs on. When we move render to another thread this no longer works.
To fix this, a new `scope_with_executor` method was added that takes a optional `TheadExecutor` that can only be ticked on the thread it was initialized on. The render world then holds a `MainThreadExecutor` resource which can be passed to the scope in the parallel executor that it uses to spawn it's non send systems on.
### Scopes executors between render and main should not share tasks
Since the render world and the app world share the `ComputeTaskPool`. Because `scope` has executors for the ComputeTaskPool a system from the main world could run on the render thread or a render system could run on the main thread. This can cause performance problems because it can delay a stage from finishing. See https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/6503#issuecomment-1309791442 for more details.
To avoid this problem, `TaskPool::scope` has been changed to not tick the ComputeTaskPool when it's used by the parallel executor. In the future when we move closer to the 1 thread to 1 logical core model we may want to overprovide threads, because the render and main app threads don't do much when executing the schedule.
## Performance

#### This PR with pipelining disabled vs Main
Mostly regressions here. I don't think this should be a problem as users that are disabling pipelined rendering are probably running single threaded and not using the parallel executor. The regression is probably mostly due to the switch to use `async_executor::run` instead of `try_tick` and also having one less thread to run systems on. I'll do a writeup on why switching to `run` causes regressions, so we can try to eventually fix it. Using try_tick causes issues when pipeline rendering is enable as seen [here](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/6503#issuecomment-1380803518)

### Benchmarks
Mostly the same except empty_systems has got a touch slower. The maybe_pipelining+1 column has the compute task pool with an extra thread over default added. This is because pipelining loses one thread over main to execute systems on, since the main thread no longer runs normal systems.

## Migration Guide
### App `runner` and SubApp `extract` functions are now required to be Send
This was changed to enable pipelined rendering. If this breaks your use case please report it as these new bounds might be able to be relaxed.
## ToDo
* [x] redo benchmarking
* [x] reinvestigate the perf of the try_tick -> run change for task pool scope
# Objective
- Add a configurable prepass
- A depth prepass is useful for various shader effects and to reduce overdraw. It can be expansive depending on the scene so it's important to be able to disable it if you don't need any effects that uses it or don't suffer from excessive overdraw.
- The goal is to eventually use it for things like TAA, Ambient Occlusion, SSR and various other techniques that can benefit from having a prepass.
## Solution
The prepass node is inserted before the main pass. It runs for each `Camera3d` with a prepass component (`DepthPrepass`, `NormalPrepass`). The presence of one of those components is used to determine which textures are generated in the prepass. When any prepass is enabled, the depth buffer generated will be used by the main pass to reduce overdraw.
The prepass runs for each `Material` created with the `MaterialPlugin::prepass_enabled` option set to `true`. You can overload the shader used by the prepass by using `Material::prepass_vertex_shader()` and/or `Material::prepass_fragment_shader()`. It will also use the `Material::specialize()` for more advanced use cases. It is enabled by default on all materials.
The prepass works on opaque materials and materials using an alpha mask. Transparent materials are ignored.
The `StandardMaterial` overloads the prepass fragment shader to support alpha mask and normal maps.
---
## Changelog
- Add a new `PrepassNode` that runs before the main pass
- Add a `PrepassPlugin` to extract/prepare/queue the necessary data
- Add a `DepthPrepass` and `NormalPrepass` component to control which textures will be created by the prepass and available in later passes.
- Add a new `prepass_enabled` flag to the `MaterialPlugin` that will control if a material uses the prepass or not.
- Add a new `prepass_enabled` flag to the `PbrPlugin` to control if the StandardMaterial uses the prepass. Currently defaults to false.
- Add `Material::prepass_vertex_shader()` and `Material::prepass_fragment_shader()` to control the prepass from the `Material`
## Notes
In bevy's sample 3d scene, the performance is actually worse when enabling the prepass, but on more complex scenes the performance is generally better. I would like more testing on this, but @DGriffin91 has reported a very noticeable improvements in some scenes.
The prepass is also used by @JMS55 for TAA and GTAO

# Objective
- Safety comments for the `CommandQueue` type are quite sparse and very imprecise. Sometimes, they are right for the wrong reasons or use circular reasoning.
## Solution
- Document previously-implicit safety invariants.
- Rewrite safety comments to actually reflect the specific invariants of each operation.
- Use `OwningPtr` instead of raw pointers, to encode an invariant in the type system instead of via comments.
- Use typed pointer methods when possible to increase reliability.
---
## Changelog
+ Added the function `OwningPtr::read_unaligned`.
# Objective
Fix https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/4530
- Make it easier to open/close/modify windows by setting them up as `Entity`s with a `Window` component.
- Make multiple windows very simple to set up. (just add a `Window` component to an entity and it should open)
## Solution
- Move all properties of window descriptor to ~components~ a component.
- Replace `WindowId` with `Entity`.
- ~Use change detection for components to update backend rather than events/commands. (The `CursorMoved`/`WindowResized`/... events are kept for user convenience.~
Check each field individually to see what we need to update, events are still kept for user convenience.
---
## Changelog
- `WindowDescriptor` renamed to `Window`.
- Width/height consolidated into a `WindowResolution` component.
- Requesting maximization/minimization is done on the [`Window::state`] field.
- `WindowId` is now `Entity`.
## Migration Guide
- Replace `WindowDescriptor` with `Window`.
- Change `width` and `height` fields in a `WindowResolution`, either by doing
```rust
WindowResolution::new(width, height) // Explicitly
// or using From<_> for tuples for convenience
(1920., 1080.).into()
```
- Replace any `WindowCommand` code to just modify the `Window`'s fields directly and creating/closing windows is now by spawning/despawning an entity with a `Window` component like so:
```rust
let window = commands.spawn(Window { ... }).id(); // open window
commands.entity(window).despawn(); // close window
```
## Unresolved
- ~How do we tell when a window is minimized by a user?~
~Currently using the `Resize(0, 0)` as an indicator of minimization.~
No longer attempting to tell given how finnicky this was across platforms, now the user can only request that a window be maximized/minimized.
## Future work
- Move `exit_on_close` functionality out from windowing and into app(?)

# Objective
See:
- https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/7067#issuecomment-1381982285

- https://discord.com/channels/691052431525675048/1063454009769340989
## Solution
This merge request adds documentation:
1. Alert users to the fact that `App::run()` might never return and code placed after it might never be executed.
2. Makes `winit::WinitSettings::return_from_run` discoverable.
3. Better explains why `winit::WinitSettings::return_from_run` is discouraged and better links to up-stream docs. on that topic.
4. Adds notes to the `app/return_after_run.rs` example which otherwise promotes a feature that carries caveats.
Furthermore, w.r.t `winit::WinitSettings::return_from_run`:
- Broken links to `winit` docs are fixed.
- Links now point to BOTH `EventLoop::run()` and `EventLoopExtRunReturn::run_return()` which are the salient up-stream pages and make more sense, taken together.
- Collateral damage: "Supported platforms" heading; disambiguation of "run" → `App::run()`; links.
## Future Work
I deliberately structured the "`run()` might not return" section under `App::run()` to allow for alternative patterns (e.g. `AppExit` event, `WindowClosed` event) to be listed or mentioned, beneath it, in the future.
# Objective
- Fixes#7260
## Solution
- #6649 used `init_non_send_resource` for `AudioOutput`, but this is before #6436 was merged.
- Use `init_resource` instead.
# Objective
Repeated calls to `init_non_send_resource` currently overwrite the old value because the wrong storage is being checked.
## Solution
Use the correct storage. Add some tests.
## Notes
Without the fix, the new test fails with
```
thread 'world::tests::init_non_send_resource_does_not_overwrite' panicked at 'assertion failed: `(left == right)`
left: `1`,
right: `0`', crates/bevy_ecs/src/world/mod.rs:2267:9
note: run with `RUST_BACKTRACE=1` environment variable to display a backtrace
test world::tests::init_non_send_resource_does_not_overwrite ... FAILED
```
This was introduced by #7174 and it seems like a fairly straightforward oopsie.
# Objective
I was reading through the bevy_ecs code, trying to understand how everything works.
I was getting a bit confused when reading the doc comment for the `new_archetype` function; it looks like it doesn't create a new archetype but instead updates some internal state in the SystemParam to facility QueryIteration.
(I still couldn't find where a new archetype was actually created)
## Solution
- Adding a doc comment with a more correct explanation.
If it's deemed correct, I can also update the doc-comment for the other `new_archetype` calls
# Objective
Speed up the render phase of rendering. An extension of #6885.
`SystemState::get` increments the `World`'s change tick atomically every time it's called. This is notably more expensive than a unsynchronized increment, even without contention. It also updates the archetypes, even when there has been nothing to update when it's called repeatedly.
## Solution
Piggyback off of #6885. Split `SystemState::validate_world_and_update_archetypes` into `SystemState::validate_world` and `SystemState::update_archetypes`, and make the later `pub`. Then create safe variants of `SystemState::get_unchecked_manual` that still validate the `World` but do not update archetypes and do not increment the change tick using `World::read_change_tick` and `World::change_tick`. Update `RenderCommandState` to call `SystemState::update_archetypes` in `Draw::prepare` and `SystemState::get_manual` in `Draw::draw`.
## Performance
There's a slight perf benefit (~2%) for `main_opaque_pass_3d` on `many_foxes` (340.39 us -> 333.32 us)
![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/3137680/210643746-25320b98-3e2b-4a95-8084-892c23bb8b4e.png)
## Alternatives
We can change `SystemState::get` to not increment the `World`'s change tick. Though this would still put updating the archetypes and an atomic read on the hot-path.
---
## Changelog
Added: `SystemState::get_manual`
Added: `SystemState::get_manual_mut`
Added: `SystemState::update_archetypes`
# Objective
Remove the `VerticalAlign` enum.
Text's alignment field should only affect the text's internal text alignment, not its position. The only way to control a `TextBundle`'s position and bounds should be through the manipulation of the constraints in the `Style` components of the nodes in the Bevy UI's layout tree.
`Text2dBundle` should have a separate `Anchor` component that sets its position relative to its transform.
Related issues: #676, #1490, #5502, #5513, #5834, #6717, #6724, #6741, #6748
## Changelog
* Changed `TextAlignment` into an enum with `Left`, `Center`, and `Right` variants.
* Removed the `HorizontalAlign` and `VerticalAlign` types.
* Added an `Anchor` component to `Text2dBundle`
* Added `Component` derive to `Anchor`
* Use `f32::INFINITY` instead of `f32::MAX` to represent unbounded text in Text2dBounds
## Migration Guide
The `alignment` field of `Text` now only affects the text's internal alignment.
### Change `TextAlignment` to TextAlignment` which is now an enum. Replace:
* `TextAlignment::TOP_LEFT`, `TextAlignment::CENTER_LEFT`, `TextAlignment::BOTTOM_LEFT` with `TextAlignment::Left`
* `TextAlignment::TOP_CENTER`, `TextAlignment::CENTER_LEFT`, `TextAlignment::BOTTOM_CENTER` with `TextAlignment::Center`
* `TextAlignment::TOP_RIGHT`, `TextAlignment::CENTER_RIGHT`, `TextAlignment::BOTTOM_RIGHT` with `TextAlignment::Right`
### Changes for `Text2dBundle`
`Text2dBundle` has a new field 'text_anchor' that takes an `Anchor` component that controls its position relative to its transform.
# Objective
- Enabling the `debug_asset_server` feature doesn't compile when using it with `load_internal_binary_asset!()`. The issue is because it assumes the loader takes an `&'static str` as a parameter, but binary assets loader expect `&'static [u8]`.
## Solution
- Add a generic type for the loader and use a different type in `load_internal_asset` and `load_internal_binary_asset`
# Objective
- Fixes#6361
- Fixes#6362
- Fixes#6364
## Solution
- Added an example for creating a custom `Decodable` type
- Clarified the documentation on `Decodable`
- Added an `AddAudioSource` trait and implemented it for `App`

# Objective
Fix#4647. If any child is changed, or even reordered, `Changed<Children>` is true, which causes transform propagation to propagate changes to all siblings of a changed child, even if they don't need to be.
## Solution
As `Parent` and `Children` are updated in tandem in hierarchy commands after #4800. `Changed<Parent>` is true on the child when `Changed<Children>` is true on the parent. However, unlike checking children, checking `Changed<Parent>` is only localized to the current entity and will not force propagation to the siblings.
Also took the opportunity to change propagation to use `Query::iter_many` instead of repeated `Query::get` calls. Should cut a bit of the overhead out of propagation. This means we won't panic when there isn't a `Parent` on the child, just skip over it.
The tests from #4608 still pass, so the change detection here still works just fine under this approach.
# Objective
fix bloom when used on a camera with a viewport specified
## Solution
- pass viewport into the prefilter shader, and use it to read from the correct section of the original rendered screen
- don't apply viewport for the intermediate bloom passes, only for the final blend output
# Objective
- Fixes#3158
## Solution
- clear columns
My implementation of `clear_resources` do not remove the components itself but it clears the columns that keeps the resource data. I'm not sure if the issue meant to clear all resources, even the components and component ids (which I'm not sure if it's possible)

# Objective
The trait `ReadOnlySystemParam` is not implemented for `Option<NonSend<>>`, even though it should be.
Follow-up to #7243. This fixes another mistake made in #6919.
## Solution

# Objective
The trait `ReadOnlySystemParam` is implemented for `NonSendMut`, when it should not be. This mistake was made in #6919.
## Solution
Remove the incorrect impl.
# Objective
Complete the first part of the migration detailed in bevyengine/rfcs#45.
## Solution
Add all the new stuff.

# Objective
- We rely on the construction of `EntityRef` to be valid elsewhere in unsafe code. This construction is not checked (for performance reasons), and thus this private method must be unsafe.
- Fixes#7218.
## Solution
- Make the method unsafe.
- Add safety docs.
- Improve safety docs slightly for the sibling `EntityMut::new`.
- Add debug asserts to start to verify these assumptions in debug mode.
## Context for reviewers
I attempted to verify the `EntityLocation` more thoroughly, but this turned out to be more work than expected. I've spun that off into #7221 as a result.
# Objective
Fixes#5859
## Solution
- Add `ClearChildren` and `ReplaceChildren` commands in the `crates/bevy_hierarchy/src/child_builder.rs`
---
## Changelog
- Added `ClearChildren` and `ReplaceChildren` struct
- Added `clear_children(&mut self) -> &mut Self` and `replace_children(&mut self, children: &[Entity]) -> &mut Self` function in `BuildChildren` trait
- Changed `PushChildren` `write` function body to a `push_children ` function to reused in `ReplaceChildren`
- Added `clear_children` function
- Added `push_and_replace_children_commands` and `push_and_clear_children_commands` test

# Objective
- Fixes a bug where `just_pressed` and `just_released` in `Input<GamepadButton>` might behave incorrectly due calling `clear` 3 times in a single frame through these three different systems: `gamepad_button_event_system`, `gamepad_axis_event_system` and `gamepad_connection_system` in any order
## Solution
- Call `clear` only once and before all the above three systems, i.e. in `gamepad_event_system`
## Additional Info
- Discussion in Discord: https://discord.com/channels/691052431525675048/768253008416342076/1064621963693273279
# Objective
The usages of the unsafe function `byte_add` are not properly documented.
Follow-up to #7151.
## Solution
Add safety comments to each call-site.
# Objective
Currently, the `AxisSettings::new` function is unusable due to
an implementation quirk. It only allows `AxisSettings` where
the bounds that are supposed to be positive are negative!
## Solution
- We fix the bound check
- We add a test to make sure the method is usable
Seems like the error slipped through because of the relatively
verbose code style. With all those `if/else`, very long names,
range syntax, the bound check is actually hard to spot. I first
refactored a lot of code, but I left out the refactor because the
fix should be integrated independently.
---
## Changelog
- Fix `AxisSettings::new` only accepting invalid bounds
# Objective
Add useful information about cursor position relative to a UI node. Fixes#7079.
## Solution
- Added a new `RelativeCursorPosition` component

# Objective
- Allow rendering queue systems to use a `Res<PipelineCache>` even for queueing up new rendering pipelines. This is part of unblocking parallel execution queue systems.
## Solution
- Make `PipelineCache` internally mutable w.r.t to queueing new pipelines. Pipelines are no longer immediately updated into the cache state, but rather queued into a Vec. The Vec of pending new pipelines is then later processed at the same time we actually create the queued pipelines on the GPU device.
---
## Changelog
`PipelineCache` no longer requires mutable access in order to queue render / compute pipelines.
## Migration Guide
* Most usages of `resource_mut::<PipelineCache>` and `ResMut<PipelineCache>` can be changed to `resource::<PipelineCache>` and `Res<PipelineCache>` as long as they don't use any methods requiring mutability - the only public method requiring it is `process_queue`.
# Objective
- The function `BlobVec::replace_unchecked` has informal use of safety comments.
- This function does strange things with `OwningPtr` in order to get around the borrow checker.
## Solution
- Put safety comments in front of each unsafe operation. Describe the specific invariants of each operation and how they apply here.
- Added a guard type `OnDrop`, which is used to simplify ownership transfer in case of a panic.
---
## Changelog
+ Added the guard type `bevy_utils::OnDrop`.
+ Added conversions from `Ptr`, `PtrMut`, and `OwningPtr` to `NonNull<u8>`.
# Objective
Fix#5248.
## Solution
Support `In<T>` parameters and allow returning arbitrary types in exclusive systems.
---
## Changelog
- Exclusive systems may now be used with system piping.
## Migration Guide
Exclusive systems (systems that access `&mut World`) now support system piping, so the `ExclusiveSystemParamFunction` trait now has generics for the `In`put and `Out`put types.
```rust
// Before
fn my_generic_system<T, Param>(system_function: T)
where T: ExclusiveSystemParamFunction<Param>
{ ... }
// After
fn my_generic_system<T, In, Out, Param>(system_function: T)
where T: ExclusiveSystemParamFunction<In, Out, Param>
{ ... }
```
# Objective
Pipelines can be customized by wrapping an existing pipeline in a newtype and adding custom logic to its implementation of `SpecializedMeshPipeline::specialize`. To make that easier, the wrapped pipeline type needs to implement `Clone`.
For example, the current non-cloneable pipelines require wrapper pipelines to pull apart the wrapped pipeline like this:
```rust
impl FromWorld for Wireframe2dPipeline {
fn from_world(world: &mut World) -> Self {
let p = &world.resource::<Material2dPipeline<ColorMaterial>>();
Self {
mesh2d_pipeline: p.mesh2d_pipeline.clone(),
material2d_layout: p.material2d_layout.clone(),
vertex_shader: p.vertex_shader.clone(),
fragment_shader: p.fragment_shader.clone(),
}
}
}
```
## Solution
Derive or implement `Clone` on all built-in pipeline types. This is easy to do since they mostly just contain cheaply clonable reference-counted types.
---
## Changelog
Implement `Clone` for all pipeline types.
# Objective
fix error with shadow shader's spotlight direction calculation when direction.y ~= 0
fixes#7152
## Solution
same as #6167: in shadows.wgsl, clamp 1-x^2-z^2 to >= 0 so that we can safely sqrt it
# Objective
There are some utility functions for actually working with `Storages` inside `entity_ref.rs` that are used both for `EntityRef/EntityMut` and `World`, with a `// TODO: move to Storages`.
This PR moves them to private methods on `World`, because that's the safest API boundary. On `Storages` you would need to ensure that you pass `Components` from the same world.
## Solution
- move get_component[_with_type], get_ticks[_with_type], get_component_and_ticks[_with_type] to `World` (still pub(crate))
- replace `pub use entity_ref::*;` with `pub use entity_ref::{EntityRef, EntityMut}` and qualified `entity_ref::get_mut[_by_id]` in `world.rs`
- add safety comments to a bunch of methods
# Objective
* `World::init_resource` and `World::get_resource_or_insert_with` are implemented naively, and as such they perform duplicate `TypeId -> ComponentId` lookups.
* `World::get_resource_or_insert_with` contains an additional duplicate `ComponentId -> ResourceData` lookup.
* This function also contains an unnecessary panic branch, which we rely on the optimizer to be able to remove.
## Solution
Implement the functions using engine-internal code, instead of combining high-level functions. This allows computed variables to persist across different branches, instead of being recomputed.
# Objective
It is often necessary to update an entity's parent
while keeping its GlobalTransform static. Currently
it is cumbersome and error-prone (two questions in
the discord `#help` channel in the past week)
- Part 2, resolves#5475
- Builds on: #7020.
## Solution
- Added the `BuildChildrenTransformExt` trait, it is part
of `bevy::prelude` and adds the following methods to `EntityCommands`:
- `set_parent_in_place`: Change the parent of an entity and
update its `Transform` in order to preserve its `GlobalTransform` after the parent change
- `remove_parent_in_place`: Remove an entity from a hierarchy,
while preserving its `GlobalTransform`.
---

# Objective
- While building UI, it makes more sense for most nodes to have a `FocusPolicy` of `Pass`, so that user interaction can correctly bubble
- Only `ButtonBundle` blocks by default
This change means that for someone adding children to a button, it's not needed to change the focus policy of those children to `Pass` for the button to continue to work.
---
## Changelog
- `FocusPolicy` default has changed from `FocusPolicy::Block` to `FocusPolicy::Pass`
## Migration Guide
- `FocusPolicy` default has changed from `FocusPolicy::Block` to `FocusPolicy::Pass`
# Objective
The documentation of the bevy_render crate is still pretty incomplete.
This PR follows up on #6885 and improves the documentation of the `render_phase` module.
This module contains one of our most important rendering abstractions and the current documentation is pretty confusing. This PR tries to clarify what all of these pieces are for and how they work together to form bevy`s modular rendering logic.
## Solution
### Code Reformating
- I have moved the `rangefinder` into the `render_phase` module since it is only used there.
- I have moved the `PhaseItem` (and the `BatchedPhaseItem`) from `render_phase::draw` over to `render_phase::mod`. This does not change the public-facing API since they are reexported anyway, but this change makes the relation between `RenderPhase` and `PhaseItem` clear and easier to discover.
### Documentation
- revised all documentation in the `render_phase` module
- added a module-level explanation of how `RenderPhase`s, `RenderPass`es, `PhaseItem`s, `Draw` functions, and `RenderCommands` relate to each other and how they are used
---
## Changelog
- The `rangefinder` module has been moved into the `render_phase` module.
## Migration Guide
- The `rangefinder` module has been moved into the `render_phase` module.
```rust
//old
use bevy::render::rangefinder::*;
// new
use bevy::render::render_phase::rangefinder::*;
```
# Objective
Following #6681, both `TableRow` and `TableId` are now part of `EntityLocation`. However, the safety invariant on `EntityLocation` requires that all of the constituent fields are `repr(transprent)` or `repr(C)` and the bit pattern of all 1s must be valid. This is not true for `TableRow` and `TableId` currently.
## Solution
Mark `TableRow` and `TableId` to satisfy the safety requirement. Add safety comments on `ArchetypeId`, `ArchetypeRow`, `TableId` and `TableRow`.
# Objective
Improve safety testing when using `bevy_ptr` types. This is a follow-up to #7113.
## Solution
Add a debug-only assertion that pointers are aligned when casting to a concrete type. This should very quickly catch any unsoundness from unaligned pointers, even without miri. However, this can have a large negative perf impact on debug builds.
---
## Changelog
Added: `Ptr::deref` will now panic in debug builds if the pointer is not aligned.
Added: `PtrMut::deref_mut` will now panic in debug builds if the pointer is not aligned.
Added: `OwningPtr::read` will now panic in debug builds if the pointer is not aligned.
Added: `OwningPtr::drop_as` will now panic in debug builds if the pointer is not aligned.
# Objective
- It can be useful for third party crates to work independently on how bevy is imported
## Solution
- Expose an helper to get a subcrate path for macros
# Objective
- There is a warning when building in release:
```
warning: unused import: `bevy_ecs::system::Local`
--> crates/bevy_render/src/extract_resource.rs:5:5
|
5 | use bevy_ecs::system::Local;
| ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
= note: `#[warn(unused_imports)]` on by default
```
- It's used 59751d6e33/crates/bevy_render/src/extract_resource.rs (L47)
- Fix it
## Solution
- Gate the import
- repeat of #5320
# Objective
`MutUntyped` is a struct that stores a `PtrMut` alongside change tick metadata. Working with this type is cumbersome, and has few benefits over storing the pointer and change ticks separately.
Related: #6430 (title is out of date)
## Solution
Add a convenience method for transforming an untyped change detection pointer into its typed counterpart.
---
## Changelog
- Added the method `MutUntyped::with_type`.
As mentioned in https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/6530. It allows to not create a new constant and simply having it to show up in the documentation when someone is looking for "transparent" (case insensitive) in rustdoc search.

# Objective
Enums are now reflectable, but are not accessible via reflection paths.
This would allow us to do things like:
```rust
#[derive(Reflect)]
struct MyStruct {
data: MyEnum
}
#[derive(Reflect)]
struct MyEnum {
Foo(u32, u32),
Bar(bool)
}
let x = MyStruct {
data: MyEnum::Foo(123),
};
assert_eq!(*x.get_path::<u32>("data.1").unwrap(), 123);
```
## Solution
Added support for enums in reflection paths.
##### Note
This uses a simple approach of just getting the field with the given accessor. It does not do matching or anything else to ensure the enum is the intended variant. This means that the variant must be known ahead of time or matched outside the reflection path (i.e. path to variant, perform manual match, and continue pathing).
---
## Changelog
- Added support for enums in reflection paths
# Objective
There are times where we want to simply take an owned `dyn Reflect` and cast it to a type `T`.
Currently, this involves doing:
```rust
let value = value.take::<T>().unwrap_or_else(|value| {
T::from_reflect(&*value).unwrap_or_else(|| {
panic!(
"expected value of type {} to convert to type {}.",
value.type_name(),
std::any::type_name::<T>()
)
})
});
```
This is a common operation that could be easily be simplified.
## Solution
Add the `FromReflect::take_from_reflect` method. This first tries to `take` the value, calling `from_reflect` iff that fails.
```rust
let value = T::take_from_reflect(value).unwrap_or_else(|value| {
panic!(
"expected value of type {} to convert to type {}.",
value.type_name(),
std::any::type_name::<T>()
)
});
```
Based on suggestion from @soqb on [Discord](https://discord.com/channels/691052431525675048/1002362493634629796/1041046880316043374).
---
## Changelog
- Add `FromReflect::take_from_reflect` method
# Objective
- Fixes#7066
## Solution
- Split the ChangeDetection trait into ChangeDetection and ChangeDetectionMut
- Added Ref as equivalent to &T with change detection
---
## Changelog
- Support for Ref which allow inspecting change detection flags in an immutable way
## Migration Guide
- While bevy prelude includes both ChangeDetection and ChangeDetectionMut any code explicitly referencing ChangeDetection might need to be updated to ChangeDetectionMut or both. Specifically any reading logic requires ChangeDetection while writes requires ChangeDetectionMut.
use bevy_ecs::change_detection::DetectChanges -> use bevy_ecs::change_detection::{DetectChanges, DetectChangesMut}
- Previously Res had methods to access change detection `is_changed` and `is_added` those methods have been moved to the `DetectChanges` trait. If you are including bevy prelude you will have access to these types otherwise you will need to `use bevy_ecs::change_detection::DetectChanges` to continue using them.
# Objective
The types in the `bevy_ptr` accidentally did not document anything relating to alignment. This is unsound as many methods rely on the pointer being correctly aligned.
## Solution
This PR introduces new safety invariants on the `$ptr::new`, `$ptr::byte_offset` and `$ptr::byte_add` methods requiring them to keep the pointer aligned. This is consistent with the documentation of these pointer types which document them as being "type erased borrows".
As it was pointed out (by @JoJoJet in #7117) that working with unaligned pointers can be useful (for example our commands abstraction which does not try to align anything properly, see #7039) this PR also introduces a default type parameter to all the pointer types that specifies whether it has alignment requirements or not. I could not find any code in `bevy_ecs` that would need unaligned pointers right now so this is going unused.
---
## Changelog
- Correctly document alignment requirements on `bevy_ptr` types.
- Support variants of `bevy_ptr` types that do not require being correctly aligned for the pointee type.
## Migration Guide
- Safety invariants on `bevy_ptr` types' `new` `byte_add` and `byte_offset` methods have been changed. All callers should re-audit for soundness.
# Objective
- Spawn tasks from other threads onto an async executor, but limit those tasks to run on a specific thread.
- This is a continuation of trying to break up some of the changes in pipelined rendering.
- Eventually this will be used to allow `NonSend` systems to run on the main thread in pipelined rendering #6503 and also to solve #6552.
- For this specific PR this allows for us to store a thread executor in a thread local, rather than recreating a scope executor for every scope which should save on a little work.
## Solution
- We create a Executor that does a runtime check for what thread it's on before creating a !Send ticker. The ticker is the only way for the executor to make progress.
---
## Changelog
- create a ThreadExecutor that can only be ticked on one thread.
`Query`'s fields being `pub(crate)` means that the struct can be constructed via safe code from anywhere in `bevy_ecs` . This is Not Good since it is intended that all construction of this type goes through `Query::new` which is an `unsafe fn` letting various `Query` methods rely on those invariants holding even though they can be trivially bypassed.
This has no user facing impact
# Objective
It is possible to manually update `GlobalTransform`.
The engine actually assumes this is not possible.
For example, `propagate_transform` does not update children
of an `Entity` which **`GlobalTransform`** changed,
leading to unexpected behaviors.
A `GlobalTransform` set by the user may also be blindly
overwritten by the propagation system.
## Solution
- Remove `translation_mut`
- Explain to users that they shouldn't manually update the `GlobalTransform`
- Remove `global_vs_local.rs` example, since it misleads users
in believing that it is a valid use-case to manually update the
`GlobalTransform`
---
## Changelog
- Remove `GlobalTransform::translation_mut`
## Migration Guide
`GlobalTransform::translation_mut` has been removed without alternative,
if you were relying on this, update the `Transform` instead. If the given entity
had children or parent, you may need to remove its parent to make its transform
independent (in which case the new `Commands::set_parent_in_place` and
`Commands::remove_parent_in_place` may be of interest)
Bevy may add in the future a way to toggle transform propagation on
an entity basis.
# Objective
- Fix#7103.
- The issue is caused because I forgot to add a where clause to a generated struct in #7056.
## Solution
- Add the where clause.
`Query` relies on the `World` it stores being the same as the world used for creating the `QueryState` it stores. If they are not the same then everything is very unsound. This was not actually being checked anywhere, `Query::new` did not have a safety invariant or even an assertion that the `WorldId`'s are the same.
This shouldn't have any user facing impact unless we have really messed up in bevy and have unsoundness elsewhere (in which case we would now get a panic instead of being unsound).
# Objective
- In some cases, you need a `Mut<T>` pointer, but you only have a mutable reference to one. There is no easy way of converting `&'a mut Mut<'_, T>` -> `Mut<'a, T>` outside of the engine.
### Example (Before)
```rust
fn do_with_mut<T>(val: Mut<T>) { ... }
for x: Mut<T> in &mut query {
// The function expects a `Mut<T>`, so `x` gets moved here.
do_with_mut(x);
// Error: use of moved value.
do_a_thing(&x);
}
```
## Solution
- Add the function `reborrow`, which performs the mapping. This is analogous to `PtrMut::reborrow`.
### Example (After)
```rust
fn do_with_mut<T>(val: Mut<T>) { ... }
for x: Mut<T> in &mut query {
// We reborrow `x`, so the original does not get moved.
do_with_mut(x.reborrow());
// Works fine.
do_a_thing(&x);
}
```
---
## Changelog
- Added the method `reborrow` to `Mut`, `ResMut`, `NonSendMut`, and `MutUntyped`.
# Objective
This a follow-up to #6894, see https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/6894#discussion_r1045203113
The goal is to avoid cloning any string when getting a `&TypeRegistration` corresponding to a string which is being deserialized. As a bonus code duplication is also reduced.
## Solution
The manual deserialization of a string and lookup into the type registry has been moved into a separate `TypeRegistrationDeserializer` type, which implements `DeserializeSeed` with a `Visitor` that accepts any string with `visit_str`, even ones that may not live longer than that function call.
`BorrowedStr` has been removed since it's no longer used.
---
## Changelog
- The type `TypeRegistrationDeserializer` has been added, which simplifies getting a `&TypeRegistration` while deserializing a string.
# Objective
- Fix the name of function parameter name in docs
## Solution
- Change `f` to `sub_app_runner`
---
It confused me a bit when I was reading the docs in the autocomplete hint.
Hesitated about filing a PR since it's just a one single word change in the comment.
Is this the right process to change these docs?
# Objective
The type `Local<T>` unnecessarily has the bound `T: Sync` when the local is used in an exclusive system.
## Solution
Lift the bound.
---
## Changelog
Removed the bound `T: Sync` from `Local<T>` when used as an `ExclusiveSystemParam`.
# Objective
Fixes#3310. Fixes#6282. Fixes#6278. Fixes#3666.
## Solution
Split out `!Send` resources into `NonSendResources`. Add a `origin_thread_id` to all `!Send` Resources, check it on dropping `NonSendResourceData`, if there's a mismatch, panic. Moved all of the checks that `MainThreadValidator` would do into `NonSendResources` instead.
All `!Send` resources now individually track which thread they were inserted from. This is validated against for every access, mutation, and drop that could be done against the value.
A regression test using an altered version of the example from #3310 has been added.
This is a stopgap solution for the current status quo. A full solution may involve fully removing `!Send` resources/components from `World`, which will likely require a much more thorough design on how to handle the existing in-engine and ecosystem use cases.
This PR also introduces another breaking change:
```rust
use bevy_ecs::prelude::*;
#[derive(Resource)]
struct Resource(u32);
fn main() {
let mut world = World::new();
world.insert_resource(Resource(1));
world.insert_non_send_resource(Resource(2));
let res = world.get_resource_mut::<Resource>().unwrap();
assert_eq!(res.0, 2);
}
```
This code will run correctly on 0.9.1 but not with this PR, since NonSend resources and normal resources have become actual distinct concepts storage wise.
## Changelog
Changed: Fix soundness bug with `World: Send`. Dropping a `World` that contains a `!Send` resource on the wrong thread will now panic.
## Migration Guide
Normal resources and `NonSend` resources no longer share the same backing storage. If `R: Resource`, then `NonSend<R>` and `Res<R>` will return different instances from each other. If you are using both `Res<T>` and `NonSend<T>` (or their mutable variants), to fetch the same resources, it's strongly advised to use `Res<T>`.
# Objective
- Fixes#7061
## Solution
- Add and implement `insert` and `remove` methods for `List`.
---
## Changelog
- Added `insert` and `remove` methods to `List`.
- Changed the `push` and `pop` methods on `List` to have default implementations.
## Migration Guide
- Manual implementors of `List` need to implement the new methods `insert` and `remove` and
consider whether to use the new default implementation of `push` and `pop`.

# Objective
Speed up the render phase for rendering.
## Solution
- Follow up #6988 and make the internals of atomic IDs `NonZeroU32`. This niches the `Option`s of the IDs in draw state, which reduces the size and branching behavior when evaluating for equality.
- Require `&RenderDevice` to get the device's `Limits` when initializing a `TrackedRenderPass` to preallocate the bind groups and vertex buffer state in `DrawState`, this removes the branch on needing to resize those `Vec`s.
## Performance
This produces a similar speed up akin to that of #6885. This shows an approximate 6% speed up in `main_opaque_pass_3d` on `many_foxes` (408.79 us -> 388us). This should be orthogonal to the gains seen there.

---
## Changelog
Added: `RenderContext::begin_tracked_render_pass`.
Changed: `TrackedRenderPass` now requires a `&RenderDevice` on construction.
Removed: `bevy_render::render_phase::DrawState`. It was not usable in any form outside of `bevy_render`.
## Migration Guide
TODO
# Objective
- This pulls out some of the changes to Plugin setup and sub apps from #6503 to make that PR easier to review.
- Separate the extract stage from running the sub app's schedule to allow for them to be run on separate threads in the future
- Fixes#6990
## Solution
- add a run method to `SubApp` that runs the schedule
- change the name of `sub_app_runner` to extract to make it clear that this function is only for extracting data between the main app and the sub app
- remove the extract stage from the sub app schedule so it can be run separately. This is done by adding a `setup` method to the `Plugin` trait that runs after all plugin build methods run. This is required to allow the extract stage to be removed from the schedule after all the plugins have added their systems to the stage. We will also need the setup method for pipelined rendering to setup the render thread. See e3267965e1/crates/bevy_render/src/pipelined_rendering.rs (L57-L98)
## Changelog
- Separate SubApp Extract stage from running the sub app schedule.
## Migration Guide
### SubApp `runner` has conceptually been changed to an `extract` function.
The `runner` no longer is in charge of running the sub app schedule. It's only concern is now moving data between the main world and the sub app. The `sub_app.app.schedule` is now run for you after the provided function is called.
```rust
// before
fn main() {
let sub_app = App::empty();
sub_app.add_stage(MyStage, SystemStage::parallel());
App::new().add_sub_app(MySubApp, sub_app, move |main_world, sub_app| {
extract(app_world, render_app);
render_app.app.schedule.run();
});
}
// after
fn main() {
let sub_app = App::empty();
sub_app.add_stage(MyStage, SystemStage::parallel());
App::new().add_sub_app(MySubApp, sub_app, move |main_world, sub_app| {
extract(app_world, render_app);
// schedule is automatically called for you after extract is run
});
}
```
# Objective
- Remove redundant gamepad events
- Simplify consuming gamepad events.
- Refactor: Separate handling of gamepad events into multiple systems.
## Solution
- Removed `GamepadEventRaw`, and `GamepadEventType`.
- Added bespoke `GamepadConnectionEvent`, `GamepadAxisChangedEvent`, and `GamepadButtonChangedEvent`.
- Refactored `gamepad_event_system`.
- Added `gamepad_button_event_system`, `gamepad_axis_event_system`, and `gamepad_connection_system`, which update the `Input` and `Axis` resources using their corresponding event type.
Gamepad events are now handled in their own systems and have their own types.
This allows for querying for gamepad events without having to match on `GamepadEventType` and makes creating handlers for specific gamepad event types, like a `GamepadConnectionEvent` or `GamepadButtonChangedEvent` possible.
We remove `GamepadEventRaw` by filtering the gamepad events, using `GamepadSettings`, _at the source_, in `bevy_gilrs`. This way we can create `GamepadEvent`s directly and avoid creating `GamepadEventRaw` which do not pass the user defined filters.
We expose ordered `GamepadEvent`s and we can respond to individual gamepad event types.
## Migration Guide
- Replace `GamepadEvent` and `GamepadEventRaw` types with their specific gamepad event type.
# Objective
- Fixes https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/discussions/6338
This PR allows for smooth transitions between different animations.
## Solution
- This PR uses very simple linear blending of animations.
- When starting a new animation, you can give it a duration, and throughout that duration, the previous and the new animation are being linearly blended, until only the new animation is running.
- I'm aware of https://github.com/bevyengine/rfcs/pull/49 and https://github.com/bevyengine/rfcs/pull/51, which are more complete solutions to this problem, but they seem still far from being implemented. Until they're ready, this PR allows for the most basic use case of blending, i.e. smoothly transitioning between different animations.
## Migration Guide
- no bc breaking changes
# Objective
- Storage buffers are useful and not currently supported by the `AsBindGroup` derive which means you need to expand the macro if you need a storage buffer
## Solution
- Add a new `#[storage]` attribute to the derive `AsBindGroup` macro.
- Support and optional `read_only` parameter that defaults to false when not present.
- Support visibility parameters like the texture and sampler attributes.
---
## Changelog
- Add a new `#[storage(index)]` attribute to the derive `AsBindGroup` macro.

# Objective
- Avoid slower than necessary first frame after spawning many entities due to them not having `Aabb`s and so being marked visible
- Avoids unnecessarily large system and VRAM allocations as a consequence
## Solution
- I noticed when debugging the `many_cubes` stress test in Xcode that the `MeshUniform` binding was much larger than it needed to be. I realised that this was because initially, all mesh entities are marked as being visible because they don't have `Aabb`s because `calculate_bounds` is being run in `PostUpdate` and there are no system commands applications before executing the visibility check systems that need the `Aabb`s. The solution then is to run the `calculate_bounds` system just before the previous system commands are applied which is at the end of the `Update` stage.
Spiritual successor to #5205.
Actual successor to #6865.
# Objective
Currently, system params are defined using three traits: `SystemParam`, `ReadOnlySystemParam`, `SystemParamState`. The behavior for each param is specified by the `SystemParamState` trait, while `SystemParam` simply defers to the state.
Splitting the traits in this way makes it easier to implement within macros, but it increases the cognitive load. Worst of all, this approach requires each `MySystemParam` to have a public `MySystemParamState` type associated with it.
## Solution
* Merge the trait `SystemParamState` into `SystemParam`.
* Remove all trivial `SystemParam` state types.
* `OptionNonSendMutState<T>`: you will not be missed.
---
- [x] Fix/resolve the remaining test failure.
## Changelog
* Removed the trait `SystemParamState`, merging its functionality into `SystemParam`.
## Migration Guide
**Note**: this should replace the migration guide for #6865.
This is relative to Bevy 0.9, not main.
The traits `SystemParamState` and `SystemParamFetch` have been removed, and their functionality has been transferred to `SystemParam`.
```rust
// Before (0.9)
impl SystemParam for MyParam<'_, '_> {
type State = MyParamState;
}
unsafe impl SystemParamState for MyParamState {
fn init(world: &mut World, system_meta: &mut SystemMeta) -> Self { ... }
}
unsafe impl<'w, 's> SystemParamFetch<'w, 's> for MyParamState {
type Item = MyParam<'w, 's>;
fn get_param(&mut self, ...) -> Self::Item;
}
unsafe impl ReadOnlySystemParamFetch for MyParamState { }
// After (0.10)
unsafe impl SystemParam for MyParam<'_, '_> {
type State = MyParamState;
type Item<'w, 's> = MyParam<'w, 's>;
fn init_state(world: &mut World, system_meta: &mut SystemMeta) -> Self::State { ... }
fn get_param<'w, 's>(state: &mut Self::State, ...) -> Self::Item<'w, 's>;
}
unsafe impl ReadOnlySystemParam for MyParam<'_, '_> { }
```
The trait `ReadOnlySystemParamFetch` has been replaced with `ReadOnlySystemParam`.
```rust
// Before
unsafe impl ReadOnlySystemParamFetch for MyParamState {}
// After
unsafe impl ReadOnlySystemParam for MyParam<'_, '_> {}
```
# Objective
- The doctest for `Mut::map_unchanged` uses a fake function `set_if_not_equal` to demonstrate usage.
- Now that #6853 has been merged, we can use `Mut::set_if_neq` directly instead of mocking it.
(github made me type out a message for the commit which looked like it was for the pr, sorry)
# Objective
- Add a way to get all of the input devices of an `Axis`, primarily useful for looping through them
## Solution
- Adds `Axis<T>::devices()` which returns a `FixedSizeIterator<Item = &T>`
- Adds a (probably unneeded) `test_axis_devices` test because tests are cool.
---
## Changelog
- Added `Axis<T>::devices()` method
## Migration Guide
Not a breaking change.
# Objective
`SystemParam` `Local`s documentation currently leaves out information that should be documented.
- What happens when multiple `SystemParam`s within the same system have the same `Local` type.
- What lifetime parameter is expected by `Local`.
## Solution
- Added sentences to documentation to communicate this information.
- Renamed `Local` lifetimes in code to `'s` where they previously were not. Users can get complicated incorrect suggested fixes if they pass the wrong lifetime. Some instance of the code had `'w` indicating the expected lifetime might not have been known to those that wrote the code either.

# Objective
- Fixes#7081.
## Solution
- Moved functionality from kitchen sink plugin `CorePlugin` to separate plugins, `TaskPoolPlugin`, `TypeRegistrationPlugin`, `FrameCountPlugin`. `TaskPoolOptions` resource should now be used with `TaskPoolPlugin`.
## Changelog
Minimal changes made (code kept in `bevy_core/lib.rs`).
## Migration Guide
- `CorePlugin` broken into separate plugins. If not using `DefaultPlugins` or `MinimalPlugins` `PluginGroup`s, the replacement for `CorePlugin` is now to add `TaskPoolPlugin`, `TypeRegistrationPlugin`, and `FrameCountPlugin` to the app.
## Notes
- Consistent with Bevy goal "modularity over deep integration" but the functionality of `TypeRegistrationPlugin` and `FrameCountPlugin` is weak (the code has to go somewhere, though!).
- No additional tests written.
# Objective
It is currently possible to break reference counting for assets by creating a strong `HandleUntyped` and then modifying the `id` field before dropping the handle. This should not be allowed.
## Solution
Change the `id` field visibility to private and add a getter instead. The same change was previously done for `Handle<T>` in #6176, but `HandleUntyped` was forgotten.
---
## Migration Guide
- Instead of directly accessing the ID of a `HandleUntyped` as `handle.id`, use the new getter `handle.id()`.
# Objective
- When using `Color::hex` for the first time, I was confused by the fact that I can't specify colors using #, which is much more familiar.
- In the code editor (if there is support) there is a preview of the color, which is very convenient.

## Solution
- Allow you to enter colors like `#ff33f2` and use the `.strip_prefix` method to delete the `#` character.
# Objective
- Fix#4200
Currently, `#[derive(SystemParam)]` publicly exposes each field type, which makes it impossible to encapsulate private fields.
## Solution
Previously, the fields were leaked because they were used as an input generic type to the macro-generated `SystemParam::State` struct. That type has been changed to store its state in a field with a specific type, instead of a generic type.
---
## Changelog
- Fixed a bug that caused `#[derive(SystemParam)]` to leak the types of private fields.
# Objective
- Set the cursor grab mode after the window is built, fix#7007, clean some conversion code.
## Solution
- Set the cursor grab mode after the window is built.
# Objective
Fixes#6891
## Solution
Replaces deserializing map keys as `&str` with deserializing them as `String`.
This bug seems to occur when using something like `File` or `BufReader` rather than bytes or a string directly (I only tested `File` and `BufReader` for `rmp-serde` and `serde_json`). This might be an issue with other `Read` impls as well (except `&[u8]` it seems).
We already had passing tests for Message Pack but none that use a `File` or `BufReader`. This PR also adds or modifies tests to check for this in the future.
This change was also based on [feedback](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/4561#discussion_r957385136) I received in a previous PR.
---
## Changelog
- Fix bug where scene deserialization using certain readers could fail (e.g. `BufReader`, `File`, etc.)
# Objective
Speed up animation by leveraging all threads in `ComputeTaskPool`.
## Solution
This PR parallelizes animation sampling across all threads.
To ensure that this is safely done, all animation is predicated with an ancestor query to ensure that there is no conflicting `AnimationPlayer` above each animated hierarchy that may cause this to alias.
Unlike the RFC, this does not add support for reflect based "animate anything", but only extends the existing `AnimationPlayer` to support high numbers of animated characters on screen at once.
## Performance
This cuts `many_foxes`'s frame time on my machine by a full millisecond, from 7.49ms to 6.5ms. (yellow is this PR, red is main).
![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/3137680/204219698-ffe0136c-5e9b-436f-b8d9-b23f0b8d7d36.png)
---
## Changelog
Changed: Animation sampling now runs fully multi-threaded using threads from `ComputeTaskPool`.
Changed: `AnimationPlayer` that are on a child or descendant of another entity with another player will no longer be run.
# Objective
- Fixes#5529
## Solution
- Add assosciated constants named DEFAULT to as many types as possible
- Add const to as many methods in bevy_ui as possible
I have not applied the same treatment to the bundles in bevy_ui as it would require going into other bevy crates to implement const defaults for structs in bevy_text or relies on UiImage which calls HandleUntyped.typed() which isn't const safe.
Alternatively the defaults could relatively easily be turned into a macro to regain some of the readability and conciseness at the cost of explicitness.
Such a macro that partially implements this exists as a crate here: [const-default](https://docs.rs/const-default/latest/const_default/derive.ConstDefault.html) but does not support enums.
Let me know if there's anything I've missed or if I should push further into other crates.

# Objective
Speed up the render phase of rendering. Simplify the trait structure for render commands.
## Solution
- Merge `EntityPhaseItem` into `PhaseItem` (`EntityPhaseItem::entity` -> `PhaseItem::entity`)
- Merge `EntityRenderCommand` into `RenderCommand`.
- Add two associated types to `RenderCommand`: `RenderCommand::ViewWorldQuery` and `RenderCommand::WorldQuery`.
- Use the new associated types to construct two `QueryStates`s for `RenderCommandState`.
- Hoist any `SQuery<T>` fetches in `EntityRenderCommand`s into the aformentioned two queries. Batch fetch them all at once.
## Performance
`main_opaque_pass_3d` is slightly faster on `many_foxes` (427.52us -> 401.15us)

## Future Work
- Can we hoist the view level queries out of the core loop?
---
## Changelog
Added: `PhaseItem::entity`
Added: `RenderCommand::ViewWorldQuery` associated type.
Added: `RenderCommand::ItemorldQuery` associated type.
Added: `Draw<T>::prepare` optional trait function.
Removed: `EntityPhaseItem` trait
## Migration Guide
TODO
# Objective
- The #7064 PR had poor performance on an M1 Max in MacOS due to significant overuse of registers resulting in 'register spilling' where data that would normally be stored in registers on the GPU is instead stored in VRAM. The latency to read from/write to VRAM instead of registers incurs a significant performance penalty.
- Use of registers is a limiting factor in shader performance. Assignment of a struct from memory to a local variable can incur copies. Passing a variable that has struct type as an argument to a function can also incur copies. As such, these two cases can incur increased register usage and decreased performance.
## Solution
- Remove/avoid a number of assignments of light struct type data to local variables.
- Remove/avoid a number of passing light struct type variables/data as value arguments to shader functions.
# Objective
- The recently merged PR #7013 does not allow multiple `RenderPhase`s to share the same `RenderPass`.
- Due to the introduced overhead we want to minimize the number of `RenderPass`es recorded during each frame.
## Solution
- Take a constructed `TrackedRenderPass` instead of a `RenderPassDiscriptor` as a parameter to the `RenderPhase::render` method.
---
## Changelog
To enable multiple `RenderPhases` to share the same `TrackedRenderPass`,
the `RenderPhase::render` signature has changed.
```rust
pub fn render<'w>(
&self,
render_pass: &mut TrackedRenderPass<'w>,
world: &'w World,
view: Entity)
```

# Objective
`Query::get` and other random access methods require looking up `EntityLocation` for every provided entity, then always looking up the `Archetype` to get the table ID and table row. This requires 4 total random fetches from memory: the `Entities` lookup, the `Archetype` lookup, the table row lookup, and the final fetch from table/sparse sets. If `EntityLocation` contains the table ID and table row, only the `Entities` lookup and the final storage fetch are required.
## Solution
Add `TableId` and table row to `EntityLocation`. Ensure it's updated whenever entities are moved around. To ensure `EntityMeta` does not grow bigger, both `TableId` and `ArchetypeId` have been shrunk to u32, and the archetype index and table row are stored as u32s instead of as usizes. This should shrink `EntityMeta` by 4 bytes, from 24 to 20 bytes, as there is no padding anymore due to the change in alignment.
This idea was partially concocted by @BoxyUwU.
## Performance
This should restore the `Query::get` "gains" lost to #6625 that were introduced in #4800 without being unsound, and also incorporates some of the memory usage reductions seen in #3678.
This also removes the same lookups during add/remove/spawn commands, so there may be a bit of a speedup in commands and `Entity{Ref,Mut}`.
---
## Changelog
Added: `EntityLocation::table_id`
Added: `EntityLocation::table_row`.
Changed: `World`s can now only hold a maximum of 2<sup>32</sup>- 1 archetypes.
Changed: `World`s can now only hold a maximum of 2<sup>32</sup> - 1 tables.
## Migration Guide
A `World` can only hold a maximum of 2<sup>32</sup> - 1 archetypes and tables now. If your use case requires more than this, please file an issue explaining your use case.
# Objective
There isn't really a way to test that code using bevy_reflect compiles or doesn't compile for certain scenarios. This would be especially useful for macro-centric PRs like #6511 and #6042.
## Solution
Using `bevy_ecs_compile_fail_tests` as reference, added the `bevy_reflect_compile_fail_tests` crate.
Currently, this crate contains a very simple test case. This is so that we can get the basic foundation of this crate agreed upon and merged so that more tests can be added by other PRs.
### Open Questions
- [x] Should this be added to CI? (Answer: Yes)
---
## Changelog
- Added the `bevy_reflect_compile_fail_tests` crate for testing compilation errors
# Objective
Solve #5464
## Solution
Adds a `SystemInformationDiagnosticsPlugin` to add diagnostics.
Adds `Cargo.toml` flags to fix building on different platforms.
---
## Changelog
Adds `sysinfo` crate to `bevy-diagnostics`.
Changes in import order are due to clippy.

# Objective
`TEXTURE_ADAPTER_SPECIFIC_FORMAT_FEATURES` was already included in `adapter.features()` on non-wasm target, and since it is the default value for `WgpuSettings.features`, the subsequent code will also combine into this feature:
b6066c30b6/crates/bevy_render/src/renderer/mod.rs (L155-L156)
# Objective
Bevy uses custom `Ptr` types so the rust borrow checker can help ensure lifetimes are correct, even when types aren't known. However, these types don't benefit from the automatic lifetime coercion regular rust references enjoy
## Solution
Add a couple methods to Ptr, PtrMut, and MutUntyped to allow for easy usage of these types in more complex scenarios.
## Changelog
- Added `as_mut` and `as_ref` methods to `MutUntyped`.
- Added `shrink` and `as_ref` methods to `PtrMut`.
## Migration Guide
- `MutUntyped::into_inner` now marks things as changed.
# Objective
All `RenderPhases` follow the same render procedure.
The same code is duplicated multiple times across the codebase.
## Solution
I simply extracted this code into a method on the `RenderPhase`.
This avoids code duplication and makes setting up new `RenderPhases` easier.
---
## Changelog
### Changed
You can now set up the rendering code of a `RenderPhase` directly using the `RenderPhase::render` method, instead of implementing it manually in your render graph node.
# Objective
- Loading a gltf files prints many errors
```
ERROR bevy_ecs::world: Unable to send event `bevy_hierarchy::events::HierarchyEvent`
Event must be added to the app with `add_event()`
https://docs.rs/bevy/*/bevy/app/struct.App.html#method.add_event
```
- Loading a gltf file create a world for a scene where events are not registered. Executing hierarchy commands on that world should not print error
## Solution
- Revert part of #6921
- don't use `world.send_event` / `world.send_event_batch` from commands
# Objective
- We already log the adapter info on startup when bevy_render is present. It would be nice to have more info about the system to be able to ask users to submit it in bug reports
## Solution
- Use the `sysinfo` crate to get all the information
- I made sure it _only_ gets the required informations to avoid unnecessary system request
- Add a system that logs this on startup
- This system is currently in `bevy_diagnostics` because I didn't really know where to put it.
Here's an example log from my system:
```log
INFO bevy_diagnostic: SystemInformation { os: "Windows 10 Pro", kernel: "19044", cpu: "AMD Ryzen 7 5800X 8-Core Processor", core_count: "8", memory: "34282242 KB" }
```
---
## Changelog
- Added a new default log when starting a bevy app that logs the system information
# Objective
It is often necessary to update an entity's parent while keeping its GlobalTransform static. Currently it is cumbersome and error-prone (two questions in the discord `#help` channel in the past week)
- Part 1 of #5475
- Part 2: #7024.
## Solution
- Add a `reparented_to` method to `GlobalTransform`
---
## Changelog
- Add a `reparented_to` method to `GlobalTransform`
# Objective
Resolve#6156.
The most common type of command is one that runs for a single entity. Built-in commands like this can be ergonomically added to the command queue using the `EntityCommands` struct. However, adding custom entity commands to the queue is quite cumbersome. You must first spawn an entity, store its ID in a local, then construct a command using that ID and add it to the queue. This prevents method chaining, which is the main benefit of using `EntityCommands`.
### Example (before)
```rust
struct MyCustomCommand(Entity);
impl Command for MyCustomCommand { ... }
let id = commands.spawn((...)).id();
commmands.add(MyCustomCommand(id));
```
## Solution
Add the `EntityCommand` trait, which allows directly adding per-entity commands to the `EntityCommands` struct.
### Example (after)
```rust
struct MyCustomCommand;
impl EntityCommand for MyCustomCommand { ... }
commands.spawn((...)).add(MyCustomCommand);
```
---
## Changelog
- Added the trait `EntityCommand`. This is a counterpart of `Command` for types that execute code for a single entity.
## Future Work
If we feel its necessary, we can simplify built-in commands (such as `Despawn`) to use this trait.
# Objective
Any closure with the signature `FnOnce(&mut World)` implicitly implements the trait `Command` due to a blanket implementation. However, this implementation unnecessarily has the `Sync` bound, which limits the types that can be used.
## Solution
Remove the bound.
---
## Changelog
- `Command` closures no longer need to implement the marker trait `std::marker::Sync`.
# Objective
The documentation for camera priority is very confusing at the moment, it requires a bit of "double negative" kind of thinking.
# Solution
Flipping the wording on the documentation to reflect more common usecases like having an overlay camera and also renaming it to "order", since priority implies that it will override the other camera rather than have both run.
Consolidation of all the feedback about #6271 as well as the addition of an "unconditionally visible" mode.
# Objective
The current implementation of the `Visibility` struct simply wraps a boolean.. which seems like an odd pattern when rust has such nice enums that allow for more expression using pattern-matching.
Additionally as it stands Bevy only has two settings for visibility of an entity:
- "unconditionally hidden" `Visibility { is_visible: false }`,
- "inherit visibility from parent" `Visibility { is_visible: true }`
where a root level entity set to "inherit" is visible.
Note that given the behaviour, the current naming of the inner field is a little deceptive or unclear.
Using an enum for `Visibility` opens the door for adding an extra behaviour mode. This PR adds a new "unconditionally visible" mode, which causes an entity to be visible even if its Parent entity is hidden. There should not really be any performance cost to the addition of this new mode.
--
The recently added `toggle` method is removed in this PR, as its semantics could be confusing with 3 variants.
## Solution
Change the Visibility component into
```rust
enum Visibility {
Hidden, // unconditionally hidden
Visible, // unconditionally visible
Inherited, // inherit visibility from parent
}
```
---
## Changelog
### Changed
`Visibility` is now an enum
## Migration Guide
- evaluation of the `visibility.is_visible` field should now check for `visibility == Visibility::Inherited`.
- setting the `visibility.is_visible` field should now directly set the value: `*visibility = Visibility::Inherited`.
- usage of `Visibility::VISIBLE` or `Visibility::INVISIBLE` should now use `Visibility::Inherited` or `Visibility::Hidden` respectively.
- `ComputedVisibility::INVISIBLE` and `SpatialBundle::VISIBLE_IDENTITY` have been renamed to `ComputedVisibility::HIDDEN` and `SpatialBundle::INHERITED_IDENTITY` respectively.

# Objective
- Be able to name the type that `ManualEventReader::iter/iter_with_id` returns and `EventReader::iter/iter_with_id` by proxy.
Currently for the purpose of https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/5719
## Solution
- Create a custom `Iterator` type.
# Objective
- alternative to #2895
- as mentioned in #2535 the uuid based ids in the render module should be replaced with atomic-counted ones
## Solution
- instead of generating a random UUID for each render resource, this implementation increases an atomic counter
- this might be replaced by the ids of wgpu if they expose them directly in the future
- I have not benchmarked this solution yet, but this should be slightly faster in theory.
- Bevymark does not seem to be affected much by this change, which is to be expected.
- Nothing of our API has changed, other than that the IDs have lost their IMO rather insignificant documentation.
- Maybe the documentation could be added back into the macro, but this would complicate the code.
# Objective
- Describe the objective or issue this PR addresses.
SpritePipelineKey could use more constification.
## Solution
Constify SpritePipelineKey implementation.

# Objective
Align the hierarchy API between `EntityCommands` and `EntityMut`.
Added missing methods to `EntityMut`.
Replaced the duplicate `Command` implementations with the ones on `EntityMut` (e.g. The `AddChild` command is now just `world.entity_mut(..).add_child(..)`)
Fixed `update_old_parents` not sending `ChildAdded` events.
This PR does not add `add_children` to `EntityMut` as I would like to remove it from `EntityCommands` instead in #6942.
## Changelog
* Added `add_child`, `set_parent` and `remove_parent` to `EntityMut`
* Fixed missing `ChildAdded` events

* Currently, the `SystemParam` derive does not support types with const generic parameters.
* If you try to use const generics, the error message is cryptic and unhelpful.

## Solution
Allow const generic parameters to be used with `#[derive(SystemParam)]`.

Fixes#4729.
Continuation of #4854.

# Objective
Fixes#4231.
## Solution

## Changelog
- panic when App::run() is called from Plugin::build()
# Objective
Upgrade to Taffy 0.2
## Solution
Do it
## Changelog
Upgraded to Taffy 0.2, improving UI layout performance significantly and adding the flexbox `gap` property and `AlignContent::SpaceEvenly`.
## Notes
`many_buttons` is 8% faster! speed improvements for more highly nested UIs will be much more dramatic. Great work, Team Taffy.
# Objective
* The `SystemParam` derive internally uses tuples, which means it is constrained by the 16-field limit on `all_tuples`.
* The error message if you exceed this limit is abysmal.
* Supercedes #5965 -- this does the same thing, but is simpler.
## Solution
If any tuples have more than 16 fields, they are folded into tuples of tuples until they are under the 16-field limit.
# Objective
Currently, only named structs can be used with the `SystemParam` derive macro.
## Solution
Remove the restriction. Tuple structs and unit structs are now supported.
---
## Changelog
+ Added support for tuple structs and unit structs to the `SystemParam` derive macro.
# Objective
Fixes#6862 (oh hey good catch @alice-i-cecile)
Bevy was failing to print events from `info!()` and friends to the console if the `trace_tracy` feature was enabled. It shouldn't be doing that.
## Solution
The problem was this per-layer filter that was added in #4320 to suppress a noisy per-frame event (which Tracy requires in order to properly close out a frame):
- The problem event's target was `"bevy_render::renderer"`, not `"tracy"`. - So, the filter wasn't specifically targeting the noisy event.
- Without a default, `tracing_subscriber::filter::Targets` will remove _everything_ that doesn't match an explicit target rule. - So, the filter _was_ silencing the noisy event, along with everything else.
This PR changes that filter to do what was probably intended in #4320: suppress ~any events more verbose than `ERROR` from `bevy_render::renderer`~ the one problematically noisy event, but allow anything else that already made it through the top-level filter_layer.
Also, adds a comment to clarify the intent of that filter, since it's otherwise a bit opaque and required some research.
---
## Changelog
Fixed a bug that hid console log messages when the `trace_tracy` feature was enabled.
The Camera link in the UiCameraConfig was not rendered properly by the documentation.
# Objective
- In the UiCameraConfig page (https://docs.rs/bevy/latest/bevy/prelude/struct.UiCameraConfig.html), a link to the Camera page (https://docs.rs/bevy/latest/bevy/render/camera/struct.Camera.html) is broken.
## Solution
- It seems that when using URL fragment specifiers, backtick should not be used. It might be an issue of rust itself. Replacing the URL fragment specifier `[`Camera`]: bevy_render:📷:Camera` with `[Camera]: bevy_render:📷:Camera` solves this.
# Objective
- `bevy_ptr::{Ptr, PtrMut, OwnedPtr}` wrap raw pointers and should be printable using pointer formatting.
## Solution
- Add a `core::fmt::Pointer` impl for `Ptr`, `PtrMut` and `OwnedPtr` based on the wrapped `NonNull` pointer.
---
## Changelog
- Added a `core::fmt::Pointer` impl to `Ptr`, `PtrMut` and `OwnedPtr`.

## Objective
Bevy UI uses a `MeasureFunc` that preserves the aspect ratio of text, not just images. This means that the extent of flex-items containing text may be calculated incorrectly depending on the ratio of the text size compared to the size of its containing node.
Fixes#6748

## Solution
Only perform the aspect ratio calculations if the uinode contains an image.
## Changelog
* Added a field `preserve_aspect_ratio` to `CalculatedSize`
* The `MeasureFunc` only preserves the aspect ratio when `preserve_aspect_ratio` is true.
* `update_image_calculated_size_system` sets `preserve_aspect_ratio` to true for nodes with images.
# Objective
The `WgpuSettings` resource is only used during plugin build. Move it into the `RenderPlugin` struct.
Changing these settings requires re-initializing the render context, which is currently not supported.
If it is supported in the future it should probably be more explicit than changing a field on a resource, maybe something similar to the `CreateWindow` event.
## Migration Guide
```rust
// Before (0.9)
App::new()
.insert_resource(WgpuSettings { .. })
.add_plugins(DefaultPlugins)
// After (0.10)
App::new()
.add_plugins(DefaultPlugins.set(RenderPlugin {
wgpu_settings: WgpuSettings { .. },
}))

# Objective
Following #4402, extract systems run on the render world instead of the main world, and allow retained state operations on it's resources. We're currently extracting to `ExtractedJoints` and then copying it twice during Prepare. Once into `SkinnedMeshJoints` and again into the actual GPU buffer.
This makes #4902 obsolete.
## Solution
Cut out the middle copy and directly extract joints into `SkinnedMeshJoints` and remove `ExtractedJoints` entirely.
This also removes the per-frame allocation that is being made to send `ExtractedJoints` into the render world.
## Performance
On my local machine, this halves the time for `prepare_skinned _meshes` on `many_foxes` (195.75us -> 93.93us on average).

## Changelog
Added: `BufferVec::truncate`
Added: `BufferVec::extend`
Changed: `SkinnedMeshJoints::build` now takes a `&mut BufferVec` instead of a `&mut Vec` as a parameter.
Removed: `ExtractedJoints`.
## Migration Guide
`ExtractedJoints` has been removed. Read the bound bones from `SkinnedMeshJoints` instead.
# Objective
Fix#1991. Allow users to have a bit more control over the creation and finalization of the threads in `TaskPool`.
## Solution
Add new methods to `TaskPoolBuilder` that expose callbacks that are called to initialize and finalize each thread in the `TaskPool`.
Unlike the proposed solution in #1991, the callback is argument-less. If an an identifier is needed, `std:🧵:current` should provide that information easily.
Added a unit test to ensure that they're being called correctly.
# Objective
- Dynamic scene builder can build scenes without components, if they didn't have any matching the type registry
- Those entities are not really useful in the final `DynamicScene`
## Solution
- Add a method `remove_empty_entities` that will remove empty entities. It's not called by default when calling `build`, I'm not sure if that's a good idea or not.
# Objective
There is currently no way to iterate over key/value pairs inside an `EntityMap`, which makes the usage of this struct very awkward. I couldn't think of a good reason why the `iter()` function should not be exposed, considering the interface already exposes `keys()` and `values()`, so I made this PR.
## Solution
Implement `iter()` for `EntityMap` in terms of its inner map type.
# Objective
Some settings were only applied in windowed mode.
Fix the issue in #6933
# Solution
Always apply the settings.
Co-authored-by: devil-ira <justthecooldude@gmail.com>
# Objective
Remove a method with an unfortunate name and questionable usefulness.
Added in #4708
It doesn't make sense to me for us to provide a method to work around a limitation of closures when we can simply, *not* use a closure.
The limitation in this case is not being able to initialize a variable from inside a closure:
```rust
let child_id;
commands.spawn_empty().with_children(|parent| {
// Error: passing uninitalized variable to a closure.
child_id = parent.spawn_empty().id();
});
// Do something with child_id
```
The docs for `add_children` suggest the following:
```rust
let child_id = commands
.spawn_empty()
.add_children(|parent| parent.spawn_empty().id());
```
I would instead suggest using the following snippet.
```rust
let parent_id = commands.spawn_empty().id();
let child_id = commands.spawn_empty().set_parent(parent_id).id();
// To be fair, at the time of #4708 this would have been a bit more cumbersome since `set_parent` did not exist.
```
Using `add_children` gets more unwieldy when you also want the `parent_id`.
```rust
let parent_commands = commands.spawn_empty();
let parent_id = parent_commands.id();
let child_id = parent_commands.add_children(|parent| parent.spawn_empty().id());
```
### The name
I see why `add_children` is named that way, it's the non-builder variant of `with_children` so it kinda makes sense,
but now the method name situation for `add_child`, `add_children` and `push_children` is *rather* unfortunate.
Removing `add_children` and renaming `push_children` to `add_children` in one go is kinda bleh, but that way we end up with the matching methods `add_child` and `add_children`.
Another reason to rename `push_children` is that it's trying to mimick the `Vec` api naming but fails because `push` is for single elements. I guess it should have been `extend_children_from_slice`, but lets not name it that :)
### Questions
~~Should `push_children` be renamed in this PR? This would make the migration guide easier to deal with.~~
Let's do that later.
Does anyone know of a way to do a simple text/regex search through all the github repos for usage of `add_children`?
That way we can have a better idea of how this will affect users. My guess is that usage of `add_children` is quite rare.
## Migration Guide
The method `add_children` on `EntityCommands` was removed.
If you were using `add_children` over `with_children` to return data out of the closure you can use `set_parent` or `add_child` to avoid the closure instead.

# Objective
`AsBindGroup` can't be used as a trait object because of the constraint `Sized` and because of the associated function.
This is a problem for [`bevy_atmosphere`](https://github.com/JonahPlusPlus/bevy_atmosphere) because it needs to use a trait that depends on `AsBindGroup` as a trait object, for switching out different shaders at runtime. The current solution it employs is reimplementing the trait and derive macro into that trait, instead of constraining to `AsBindGroup`.
## Solution
Remove the `Sized` constraint from `AsBindGroup` and add the constraint `where Self: Sized` to the associated function `bind_group_layout`. Also change `PreparedBindGroup<T: AsBindGroup>` to `PreparedBindGroup<T>` and use it as `PreparedBindGroup<Self::Data>` instead of `PreparedBindGroup<Self>`.
This weakens the constraints, but increases the flexibility of `AsBindGroup`.
I'm not entirely sure why the `Sized` constraint was there, because it worked fine without it (maybe @cart wasn't aware of use cases for `AsBindGroup` as a trait object or this was just leftover from legacy code?).
---
## Changelog
- `AsBindGroup` can be used as a trait object.
# Objective
[Rust 1.66](https://blog.rust-lang.org/inside-rust/2022/12/12/1.66.0-prerelease.html) is coming in a few days, and bevy doesn't build with it.
Fix that.
## Solution
Replace output from a trybuild test, and fix a few new instances of `needless_borrow` and `unnecessary_cast` that are now caught.
## Note
Due to the trybuild test, this can't be merged until 1.66 is released.
