# Objective
Allow `SystemParamBuilder` implementations for custom system parameters
created using `#[derive(SystemParam)]`.
## Solution
Extend the derive macro to accept a `#[system_param(builder)]`
attribute. When present, emit a builder type with a field corresponding
to each field of the param.
## Example
```rust
#[derive(SystemParam)]
#[system_param(builder)]
struct CustomParam<'w, 's> {
query: Query<'w, 's, ()>,
local: Local<'s, usize>,
}
let system = (CustomParamBuilder {
local: LocalBuilder(100),
query: QueryParamBuilder::new(|builder| {
builder.with::<A>();
}),
},)
.build_state(&mut world)
.build_system(|param: CustomParam| *param.local + param.query.iter().count());
```
# Objective
- Fixes#14860
## Solution
- Added a line of documentation to `FromWorld`'s trait definition
mention the `Default` blanket implementation.
- Added custom documentation to the `from_world` method for the
`Default` blanket implementation. This ensures when inspecting the
`from_world` function within an IDE, the tooltip will explicitly state
the `default()` method will be used for any `Default` types.
## Testing
- CI passes.
# Objective
When building a system from `SystemParamBuilder`s and defining the
system as a closure, the compiler should be able to infer the parameter
types from the builder types.
## Solution
Create methods for each arity that take an argument that implements both
`SystemParamFunction` as well as `FnMut(SystemParamItem<P>,...)`. The
explicit `FnMut` constraint will allow the compiler to infer the
necessary higher-ranked lifetimes along with the parameter types.
I wanted to show that this was possible, but I can't tell whether it's
worth the complexity. It requires a separate method for each arity,
which pollutes the docs a bit:
![SystemState build_system
docs](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/5069b749-7ec7-47e3-a5e4-1a4c78129f78)
## Example
```rust
let system = (LocalBuilder(0u64), ParamBuilder::local::<u64>())
.build_state(&mut world)
.build_system(|a, b| *a + *b + 1);
```
# Objective
sending events tends to be low-frequency so ergonomics can be
prioritized over efficiency.
add `Commands::send_event` to send any type of event without needing a
writer in hand.
i don't know how we feel about these kind of ergonomic things, i add
this to all my projects and find it useful. adding `mut
this_particular_event_writer: EventWriter<ThisParticularEvent>` every
time i want to send something is unnecessarily cumbersome.
it also simplifies the "send and receive in the same system" pattern
significantly.
basic example before:
```rs
fn my_func(
q: Query<(Entity, &State)>,
mut damage_event_writer: EventWriter<DamageEvent>,
mut heal_event_writer: EventWriter<HealEvent>,
) {
for (entity, state) in q.iter() {
if let Some(damage) = state.get_damage() {
damage_event_writer.send(DamageEvent { entity, damage });
}
if let Some(heal) = state.get_heal() {
heal_event_writer.send(HealEvent { entity, heal });
}
}
}
```
basic example after:
```rs
import bevy::ecs::event::SendEventEx;
fn my_func(
mut commands: Commands,
q: Query<(Entity, &State)>,
) {
for (entity, state) in q.iter() {
if let Some(damage) = state.get_damage() {
commands.send_event(DamageEvent { entity, damage });
}
if let Some(heal) = state.get_heal() {
commands.send_event(HealEvent { entity, heal });
}
}
}
```
send/receive in the same system before:
```rs
fn send_and_receive_param_set(
mut param_set: ParamSet<(EventReader<DebugEvent>, EventWriter<DebugEvent>)>,
) {
// We must collect the events to resend, because we can't access the writer while we're iterating over the reader.
let mut events_to_resend = Vec::new();
// This is p0, as the first parameter in the `ParamSet` is the reader.
for event in param_set.p0().read() {
if event.resend_from_param_set {
events_to_resend.push(event.clone());
}
}
// This is p1, as the second parameter in the `ParamSet` is the writer.
for mut event in events_to_resend {
event.times_sent += 1;
param_set.p1().send(event);
}
}
```
after:
```rs
use bevy::ecs::event::SendEventEx;
fn send_via_commands_and_receive(
mut reader: EventReader<DebugEvent>,
mut commands: Commands,
) {
for event in reader.read() {
if event.resend_via_commands {
commands.send_event(DebugEvent {
times_sent: event.times_sent + 1,
..event.clone()
});
}
}
}
```

## Introduction
This is the first step in my [Next Generation Scene / UI
Proposal](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/discussions/14437).
Fixes https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/7272#14800.
Bevy's current Bundles as the "unit of construction" hamstring the UI
user experience and have been a pain point in the Bevy ecosystem
generally when composing scenes:
* They are an additional _object defining_ concept, which must be
learned separately from components. Notably, Bundles _are not present at
runtime_, which is confusing and limiting.
* They can completely erase the _defining component_ during Bundle init.
For example, `ButtonBundle { style: Style::default(), ..default() }`
_makes no mention_ of the `Button` component symbol, which is what makes
the Entity a "button"!
* They are not capable of representing "dependency inheritance" without
completely non-viable / ergonomically crushing nested bundles. This
limitation is especially painful in UI scenarios, but it applies to
everything across the board.
* They introduce a bunch of additional nesting when defining scenes,
making them ugly to look at
* They introduce component name "stutter": `SomeBundle { component_name:
ComponentName::new() }`
* They require copious sprinklings of `..default()` when spawning them
in Rust code, due to the additional layer of nesting
**Required Components** solve this by allowing you to define which
components a given component needs, and how to construct those
components when they aren't explicitly provided.
This is what a `ButtonBundle` looks like with Bundles (the current
approach):
```rust
#[derive(Component, Default)]
struct Button;
#[derive(Bundle, Default)]
struct ButtonBundle {
pub button: Button,
pub node: Node,
pub style: Style,
pub interaction: Interaction,
pub focus_policy: FocusPolicy,
pub border_color: BorderColor,
pub border_radius: BorderRadius,
pub image: UiImage,
pub transform: Transform,
pub global_transform: GlobalTransform,
pub visibility: Visibility,
pub inherited_visibility: InheritedVisibility,
pub view_visibility: ViewVisibility,
pub z_index: ZIndex,
}
commands.spawn(ButtonBundle {
style: Style {
width: Val::Px(100.0),
height: Val::Px(50.0),
..default()
},
focus_policy: FocusPolicy::Block,
..default()
})
```
And this is what it looks like with Required Components:
```rust
#[derive(Component)]
#[require(Node, UiImage)]
struct Button;
commands.spawn((
Button,
Style {
width: Val::Px(100.0),
height: Val::Px(50.0),
..default()
},
FocusPolicy::Block,
));
```
With Required Components, we mention only the most relevant components.
Every component required by `Node` (ex: `Style`, `FocusPolicy`, etc) is
automatically brought in!
### Efficiency
1. At insertion/spawn time, Required Components (including recursive
required components) are initialized and inserted _as if they were
manually inserted alongside the given components_. This means that this
is maximally efficient: there are no archetype or table moves.
2. Required components are only initialized and inserted if they were
not manually provided by the developer. For the code example in the
previous section, because `Style` and `FocusPolicy` are inserted
manually, they _will not_ be initialized and inserted as part of the
required components system. Efficient!
3. The "missing required components _and_ constructors needed for an
insertion" are cached in the "archetype graph edge", meaning they aren't
computed per-insertion. When a component is inserted, the "missing
required components" list is iterated (and that graph edge (AddBundle)
is actually already looked up for us during insertion, because we need
that for "normal" insert logic too).
### IDE Integration
The `#[require(SomeComponent)]` macro has been written in such a way
that Rust Analyzer can provide type-inspection-on-hover and `F12` /
go-to-definition for required components.
### Custom Constructors
The `require` syntax expects a `Default` constructor by default, but it
can be overridden with a custom constructor:
```rust
#[derive(Component)]
#[require(
Node,
Style(button_style),
UiImage
)]
struct Button;
fn button_style() -> Style {
Style {
width: Val::Px(100.0),
..default()
}
}
```
### Multiple Inheritance
You may have noticed by now that this behaves a bit like "multiple
inheritance". One of the problems that this presents is that it is
possible to have duplicate requires for a given type at different levels
of the inheritance tree:
```rust
#[derive(Component)
struct X(usize);
#[derive(Component)]
#[require(X(x1))
struct Y;
fn x1() -> X {
X(1)
}
#[derive(Component)]
#[require(
Y,
X(x2),
)]
struct Z;
fn x2() -> X {
X(2)
}
// What version of X is inserted for Z?
commands.spawn(Z);
```
This is allowed (and encouraged), although this doesn't appear to occur
much in practice. First: only one version of `X` is initialized and
inserted for `Z`. In the case above, I think we can all probably agree
that it makes the most sense to use the `x2` constructor for `X`,
because `Y`'s `x1` constructor exists "beneath" `Z` in the inheritance
hierarchy; `Z`'s constructor is "more specific".
The algorithm is simple and predictable:
1. Use all of the constructors (including default constructors) directly
defined in the spawned component's require list
2. In the order the requires are defined in `#[require()]`, recursively
visit the require list of each of the components in the list (this is a
depth Depth First Search). When a constructor is found, it will only be
used if one has not already been found.
From a user perspective, just think about this as the following:
1. Specifying a required component constructor for `Foo` directly on a
spawned component `Bar` will result in that constructor being used (and
overriding existing constructors lower in the inheritance tree). This is
the classic "inheritance override" behavior people expect.
2. For cases where "multiple inheritance" results in constructor
clashes, Components should be listed in "importance order". List a
component earlier in the requirement list to initialize its inheritance
tree earlier.
Required Components _does_ generally result in a model where component
values are decoupled from each other at construction time. Notably, some
existing Bundle patterns use bundle constructors to initialize multiple
components with shared state. I think (in general) moving away from this
is necessary:
1. It allows Required Components (and the Scene system more generally)
to operate according to simple rules
2. The "do arbitrary init value sharing in Bundle constructors" approach
_already_ causes data consistency problems, and those problems would be
exacerbated in the context of a Scene/UI system. For cases where shared
state is truly necessary, I think we are better served by observers /
hooks.
3. If a situation _truly_ needs shared state constructors (which should
be rare / generally discouraged), Bundles are still there if they are
needed.
## Next Steps
* **Require Construct-ed Components**: I have already implemented this
(as defined in the [Next Generation Scene / UI
Proposal](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/discussions/14437). However
I've removed `Construct` support from this PR, as that has not landed
yet. Adding this back in requires relatively minimal changes to the
current impl, and can be done as part of a future Construct pr.
* **Port Built-in Bundles to Required Components**: This isn't something
we should do right away. It will require rethinking our public
interfaces, which IMO should be done holistically after the rest of Next
Generation Scene / UI lands. I think we should merge this PR first and
let people experiment _inside their own code with their own Components_
while we wait for the rest of the new scene system to land.
* **_Consider_ Automatic Required Component Removal**: We should
evaluate _if_ automatic Required Component removal should be done. Ex:
if all components that explicitly require a component are removed,
automatically remove that component. This issue has been explicitly
deferred in this PR, as I consider the insertion behavior to be
desirable on its own (and viable on its own). I am also doubtful that we
can find a design that has behavior we actually want. Aka: can we
_really_ distinguish between a component that is "only there because it
was automatically inserted" and "a component that was necessary / should
be kept". See my [discussion response
here](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/discussions/14437#discussioncomment-10268668)
for more details.

# Objective
- Fixes#14348
- Fixes#14528
- Less complex (but also likely less performant) alternative to #14611
## Solution
- Add a `is_dense` field flag to `QueryIter` indicating whether it is
dense or not, that is whether it can perform dense iteration or not;
- Check this flag any time iteration over a query is performed.
---
It would be nice if someone could try benching this change to see if it
actually matters.
~Note that this not 100% ready for mergin, since there are a bunch of
safety comments on the use of the various `IS_DENSE` for checks that
still need to be updated.~ This is ready modulo benchmarks
---------

# Objective
Allow dynamic systems to take lists of system parameters whose length is
not known at compile time.
This can be used for building a system that runs a script defined at
runtime, where the script needs a variable number of query parameters.
It can also be used for building a system that collects a list of
plugins at runtime, and provides a parameter to each one.
This is most useful today with `Vec<Query<FilteredEntityMut>>`. It will
be even more useful with `Vec<DynSystemParam>` if #14817 is merged,
since the parameters in the list can then be of different types.
## Solution
Implement `SystemParam` and `SystemParamBuilder` for `Vec` and
`ParamSet<Vec>`.
## Example
```rust
let system = (vec![
QueryParamBuilder::new_box(|builder| {
builder.with::<B>().without::<C>();
}),
QueryParamBuilder::new_box(|builder| {
builder.with::<C>().without::<B>();
}),
],)
.build_state(&mut world)
.build_system(|params: Vec<Query<&mut A>>| {
let mut count: usize = 0;
params
.into_iter()
.for_each(|mut query| count += query.iter_mut().count());
count
});
```
# Objective
- I needed to run a system whenever a specific condition became true
after being previously false.
- Other users might also need to run a system when a condition changes,
regardless of if it became true or false.
## Solution
- This adds two systems to common_conditions:
- `condition_changed` that changes whenever the inner condition changes
- `condition_became_true` that returns true whenever the inner condition
becomes true after previously being false
## Testing
- I added a doctest for each function

# Objective
Fixes#14883
## Solution
Pretty simple update to `EntityCommands` methods to consume `self` and
return it rather than taking `&mut self`. The things probably worth
noting:
* I added `#[allow(clippy::should_implement_trait)]` to the `add` method
because it causes a linting conflict with `std::ops::Add`.
* `despawn` and `log_components` now return `Self`. I'm not sure if
that's exactly the desired behavior so I'm happy to adjust if that seems
wrong.
## Testing
Tested with `cargo run -p ci`. I think that should be sufficient to call
things good.
## Migration Guide
The most likely migration needed is changing code from this:
```
let mut entity = commands.get_or_spawn(entity);
if depth_prepass {
entity.insert(DepthPrepass);
}
if normal_prepass {
entity.insert(NormalPrepass);
}
if motion_vector_prepass {
entity.insert(MotionVectorPrepass);
}
if deferred_prepass {
entity.insert(DeferredPrepass);
}
```
to this:
```
let mut entity = commands.get_or_spawn(entity);
if depth_prepass {
entity = entity.insert(DepthPrepass);
}
if normal_prepass {
entity = entity.insert(NormalPrepass);
}
if motion_vector_prepass {
entity = entity.insert(MotionVectorPrepass);
}
if deferred_prepass {
entity.insert(DeferredPrepass);
}
```
as can be seen in several of the example code updates here. There will
probably also be instances where mutable `EntityCommands` vars no longer
need to be mutable.
# Objective
I tried writing something like this in my project
```rust
.observe(|e: Trigger<OnAdd, Skeleton>| {
panic!("Skeletoned! {e:?}");
});
```
and it didn't compile.
Having `Debug` trait defined on `Trigger` event will ease debugging the
observers a little bit.
## Solution
Add a bespoke `Debug` implementation when both the bundle and the event
have `Debug` implemented for them.
## Testing
I've added `println!("{trigger:#?}");` to the [observers
example](938d810766/examples/ecs/observers.rs (L124))
and it compiled!
Caveats with this PR are:
- removing this implementation if for any reason we will need it, will
be a breaking change
- the implementation is manually generated, which adds potential toil
when changing the `Trigger` structure
## Showcase
Log output:
```rust
on_add_mine: Trigger {
event: OnAdd,
propagate: false,
trigger: ObserverTrigger {
observer: 2v1#4294967298,
event_type: ComponentId(
0,
),
entity: 454v1#4294967750,
},
_marker: PhantomData<observers::Mine>,
}
```
Thank you for maintaining this engine! 🧡
# Objective
Support building systems with parameters whose types can be determined
at runtime.
## Solution
Create a `DynSystemParam` type that can be built using a
`SystemParamBuilder` of any type and then downcast to the appropriate
type dynamically.
## Example
```rust
let system = (
DynParamBuilder::new(LocalBuilder(3_usize)),
DynParamBuilder:🆕:<Query<()>>(QueryParamBuilder::new(|builder| {
builder.with::<A>();
})),
DynParamBuilder:🆕:<&Entities>(ParamBuilder),
)
.build_state(&mut world)
.build_system(
|mut p0: DynSystemParam, mut p1: DynSystemParam, mut p2: DynSystemParam| {
let local = p0.downcast_mut::<Local<usize>>().unwrap();
let query_count = p1.downcast_mut::<Query<()>>().unwrap();
let entities = p2.downcast_mut::<&Entities>().unwrap();
},
);
```

# Objective
- Fixes#14658.
## Solution
- Added `on_unimplemented` Diagnostic for `IntoObserverSystem` calling
out argument ordering in a `note`
- Added an example to the documentation on `App::observe` to provide
some explanation to users.
## Testing
- Ran CI locally
- Deliberately introduced a parameter order error in the
`ecs/observers.rs` example as a test.

# Objective
`ParamSetBuilder` is supposed to be used as a tuple constructor, but the
field was not marked `pub` so it's not actually usable outside of its
module.
## Solution
Mark the field `pub`.
Realize one advantage of doc tests over unit tests is that they test the
public API.
Add a doc test example that uses the field so that this would have been
caught.
Closes#14836.
`filter_map_unchanged` optionally maps to an inner value by applying a
function to the contained reference. This is useful in a situation where
you need to convert a `Mut<T>` to a `Mut<U>`, but only if `T` contains
`U`.

# Objective
Fixes#14782
## Solution
Enable the lint and fix all upcoming hints (`--fix`). Also tried to
figure out the false-positive (see review comment). Maybe split this PR
up into multiple parts where only the last one enables the lint, so some
can already be merged resulting in less many files touched / less
potential for merge conflicts?
Currently, there are some cases where it might be easier to read the
code with the qualifier, so perhaps remove the import of it and adapt
its cases? In the current stage it's just a plain adoption of the
suggestions in order to have a base to discuss.
## Testing
`cargo clippy` and `cargo run -p ci` are happy.
# Objective
When reading the ECS code it is sometimes confusing to understand why we
have 2 accesses, one of ComponentId and one of ArchetypeComponentId
## Solution
Make the usage of these 2 accesses more explicit

# Objective
Fixes Commands not being `Send` or `Sync` anymore in 0.14 by
implementing `Send` and `Sync` for `RawCommandQueue`.
## Solution
Reference discussion in
[discord](https://discord.com/channels/691052431525675048/691052431974465548/1259464518539411570).
It seems that in https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/13249, when
adding a `RawCommandQueue` variant to the `InternalQueue`, the `Send /
Sync` traits were not implemented for it, which bubbled up all the way
to `Commands` not being `Send / Sync` anymore.
I am not very familiar with the ECS internals so I can't say whether the
`RawCommandQueue` is safe to be shared between threads, but I know for
sure that before the linked PR `Commands` were indeed `Send` and `Sync`
so that PR broke "some workflows" (mandatory
[xkcd](https://xkcd.com/1172/)).
## Testing
This PR itself includes a compile test to make sure `Commands` will
implement `Send` and `Sync`. The test itself fails without the
implementation and succeeds with it.
Furthermore, if I cherry pick the test to a previous release (i.e. 0.13)
it indeed succeeds, showing that this is a regression specific to 0.14.

# Objective
Fix#14771 by adding a `try_insert_if_new` method to the
`EntityCommands`
## Solution
This simply calls the `try_insert` function with `InsertMode::Keep`
## Testing
I did not add any test because `EntityCommands::try_insert` does not
seem to be tested either. I can add some if needed.
# Objective
Often there are reasons to insert some components (e.g. Transform)
separately from the rest of a bundle (e.g. PbrBundle). However `insert`
overwrites existing components, making this difficult.
See also issue #14397Fixes#2054.
## Solution
This PR adds the method `insert_if_new` to EntityMut and Commands, which
is the same as `insert` except that the old component is kept in case of
conflicts.
It also renames some internal enums (from `ComponentStatus::Mutated` to
`Existing`), to reflect the possible change in meaning.
## Testing
*Did you test these changes? If so, how?*
Added basic unit tests; used the new behavior in my project.
*Are there any parts that need more testing?*
There should be a test that the change time isn't set if a component is
not overwritten; I wasn't sure how to write a test for that case.
*How can other people (reviewers) test your changes? Is there anything
specific they need to know?*
`cargo test` in the bevy_ecs project.
*If relevant, what platforms did you test these changes on, and are
there any important ones you can't test?*
Only tested on Windows, but it doesn't touch anything platform-specific.

- Sometimes some method or function takes an owned `Query`, but we don't
want to give up ours;
- transmuting it technically a solution, but it more costly than
necessary.
- Make query iterators more flexible
- this would allow the equivalent of
`slice::split_first`/`slice::split_first_mut` for query iterators
- helps with requests like #14685
## Solution
- Add a way for reborrowing queries, that is going from a `&'a mut
Query<'w, 's, D, F>` to a `Query<'a, 's, D, F>`:
- this is safe because the original query will be borrowed while the new
query exists and thus no aliased access can happen;
- it's basically the equivalent of going from `&'short mut &'long mut T`
to `&'short mut T` the the compiler automatically implements.
- Add a way for getting the remainder of a query iterator:
- this is interesting also because the original iterator keeps its
position, which was not possible before;
- this in turn requires a way to reborrow query fetches, which I had to
add to `WorldQuery`.
## Showcase
- You can now reborrow a `Query`, getting an equivalent `Query` with a
shorter lifetime. Previously this was possible for read-only queries by
using `Query::to_readonly`, now it's possible for mutable queries too;
- You can now separately iterate over the remainder of `QueryIter`.
## Migration Guide
- `WorldQuery` now has an additional `shrink_fetch` method you have to
implement if you were implementing `WorldQuery` manually.
# Objective
`Res` and `ResMut` perform redundant lookups of the resource storage,
first to initialize the `ArchetypeComponentId` and then to retrieve it.
## Solution
Use the `archetype_component_id` returned from
`initialize_resource_internal` to avoid an extra lookup and `unwrap()`.
# Objective
The code to create `ReflectComponent` and `ReflectResource` instances
manually constructs a `Mut<dyn Reflect>` by copying everything but
`value`. That can be done more concisely and better respecting
encapsulation by calling the `map_unchanged()` method.
## Solution
Use `map_unchanged` instead of creating a `Mut` manually.

# Objective
As is, calling
[`DeferredWorld::query`](https://docs.rs/bevy/latest/bevy/ecs/world/struct.DeferredWorld.html#method.query)
requires you to first `reborrow()` the world in order to use it at all.
Simple reproduction:
```rust
fn test<'w>(mut world: DeferredWorld<'w>, mut state: QueryState<(), ()>) {
let query = world.query(&mut state);
// let query = world.reborrow().query(&mut state); // << Required
}
```
Error message:
```
error[E0597]: `world` does not live long enough
|
444 | fn test<'w>(mut world: DeferredWorld<'w>, mut state: QueryState<(), ()>) {
| -- --------- binding `world` declared here
| |
| lifetime `'w` defined here
445 | let query = world.query(&mut state);
| ^^^^^------------------
| |
| borrowed value does not live long enough
| argument requires that `world` is borrowed for `'w`
446 | }
| - `world` dropped here while still borrowed
```
## Solution
Fix the world borrow lifetime on the `query` method, which now correctly
allows the above usage.
# Objective
- Fixes#14697
## Solution
This PR modifies the existing `all_tuples!` macro to optionally accept a
`#[doc(fake_variadic)]` attribute in its input. If the attribute is
present, each invocation of the impl macro gets the correct attributes
(i.e. the first impl receives `#[doc(fake_variadic)]` while the other
impls are hidden using `#[doc(hidden)]`.
Impls for the empty tuple (unit type) are left untouched (that's what
the [standard
library](https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/cmp/trait.PartialEq.html#impl-PartialEq-for-())
and
[serde](https://docs.rs/serde/latest/serde/trait.Serialize.html#impl-Serialize-for-())
do).
To work around https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo/issues/8811 and to get
impls on re-exports to correctly show up as variadic, `--cfg docsrs_dep`
is passed when building the docs for the toplevel `bevy` crate.
`#[doc(fake_variadic)]` only works on tuples and fn pointers, so impls
for structs like `AnyOf<(T1, T2, ..., Tn)>` are unchanged.
## Testing
I built the docs locally using `RUSTDOCFLAGS='--cfg docsrs'
RUSTFLAGS='--cfg docsrs_dep' cargo +nightly doc --no-deps --workspace`
and checked the documentation page of a trait both in its original crate
and the re-exported version in `bevy`.
The description should correctly mention for how many tuple items the
trait is implemented.
I added `rustc-args` for docs.rs to the `bevy` crate, I hope there
aren't any other notable crates that re-export `#[doc(fake_variadic)]`
traits.

## Original Description
<details>
Resolves#14697
Submitting as a draft for now, very WIP.
Unfortunately, the docs don't show the variadics nicely when looking at
reexported items.
For example:
`bevy_ecs::bundle::Bundle` correctly shows the variadic impl:
![image](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/90bf8af1-1d1f-4714-9143-cdd3d0199998)
while `bevy::ecs::bundle::Bundle` (the reexport) shows all the impls
(not good):
![image](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/439c428e-f712-465b-bec2-481f7bf5870b)
Built using `RUSTDOCFLAGS='--cfg docsrs' cargo +nightly doc --workspace
--no-deps` (`--no-deps` because of wgpu-core).
Maybe I missed something or this is a limitation in the *totally not
private* `#[doc(fake_variadic)]` thingy. In any case I desperately need
some sleep now :))
</details>
# Objective
- Implements the [Unique Reflect
RFC](https://github.com/nicopap/rfcs/blob/bevy-reflect-api/rfcs/56-better-reflect.md).
## Solution
- Implements the RFC.
- This implementation differs in some ways from the RFC:
- In the RFC, it was suggested `Reflect: Any` but `PartialReflect:
?Any`. During initial implementation I tried this, but we assume the
`PartialReflect: 'static` in a lot of places and the changes required
crept out of the scope of this PR.
- `PartialReflect::try_into_reflect` originally returned `Option<Box<dyn
Reflect>>` but i changed this to `Result<Box<dyn Reflect>, Box<dyn
PartialReflect>>` since the method takes by value and otherwise there
would be no way to recover the type. `as_full` and `as_full_mut` both
still return `Option<&(mut) dyn Reflect>`.
---
## Changelog
- Added `PartialReflect`.
- `Reflect` is now a subtrait of `PartialReflect`.
- Moved most methods on `Reflect` to the new `PartialReflect`.
- Added `PartialReflect::{as_partial_reflect, as_partial_reflect_mut,
into_partial_reflect}`.
- Added `PartialReflect::{try_as_reflect, try_as_reflect_mut,
try_into_reflect}`.
- Added `<dyn PartialReflect>::{try_downcast_ref, try_downcast_mut,
try_downcast, try_take}` supplementing the methods on `dyn Reflect`.
## Migration Guide
- Most instances of `dyn Reflect` should be changed to `dyn
PartialReflect` which is less restrictive, however trait bounds should
generally stay as `T: Reflect`.
- The new `PartialReflect::{as_partial_reflect, as_partial_reflect_mut,
into_partial_reflect, try_as_reflect, try_as_reflect_mut,
try_into_reflect}` methods as well as `Reflect::{as_reflect,
as_reflect_mut, into_reflect}` will need to be implemented for manual
implementors of `Reflect`.
## Future Work
- This PR is designed to be followed up by another "Unique Reflect Phase
2" that addresses the following points:
- Investigate making serialization revolve around `Reflect` instead of
`PartialReflect`.
- [Remove the `try_*` methods on `dyn PartialReflect` since they are
stop
gaps](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/7207#discussion_r1083476050).
- Investigate usages like `ReflectComponent`. In the places they
currently use `PartialReflect`, should they be changed to use `Reflect`?
- Merging this opens the door to lots of reflection features we haven't
been able to implement.
- We could re-add [the `Reflectable`
trait](8e3488c880/crates/bevy_reflect/src/reflect.rs (L337-L342))
and make `FromReflect` a requirement to improve [`FromReflect`
ergonomics](https://github.com/bevyengine/rfcs/pull/59). This is
currently not possible because dynamic types cannot sensibly be
`FromReflect`.
- Since this is an alternative to #5772, #5781 would be made cleaner.

# Objective
Enables writing queries like `Query<Entity, With<SystemIdMarker>>` to
filter `Entity`s that are, or are not (with `Without`), `SystemId`s.
## Solution
Simple unit struct `SystemIdMarker` added during
`World::register_boxed_system`; `World::remove_system` already despawns
the entity, removing the marker.
## Testing
No tests, but happy to write some with direction.

# Objective
~~Enables writing queries like `Query<Entity, With<ObserverMarker>>` to
filter `Entity`s that are, or are not (with `Without`), `Observer`s.~~
~~`Observer` version of [similar
PR](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/14584) for `SystemId`s.~~
just adding a line to the docs :)
## Solution
~~Simple unit struct `ObserverMarker` added in `Observer`'s `.on_add`
component hook.~~
## Testing
No tests, but happy to write some with direction.
# Objective
Support more kinds of system params in buildable systems, such as a
`ParamSet` or `Vec` containing buildable params or tuples of buildable
params.
## Solution
Replace the `BuildableSystemParam` trait with `SystemParamBuilder` to
make it easier to compose builders. Provide implementations for existing
buildable params, plus tuples, `ParamSet`, and `Vec`.
## Examples
```rust
// ParamSet of tuple:
let system = (ParamSetBuilder((
QueryParamBuilder::new(|builder| { builder.with::<B>(); }),
QueryParamBuilder::new(|builder| { builder.with::<C>(); }),
)),)
.build_state(&mut world)
.build_system(|mut params: ParamSet<(Query<&mut A>, Query<&mut A>)>| {
params.p0().iter().count() + params.p1().iter().count()
});
// ParamSet of Vec:
let system = (ParamSetBuilder(vec![
QueryParamBuilder::new_box(|builder| { builder.with::<B>(); }),
QueryParamBuilder::new_box(|builder| { builder.with::<C>(); }),
]),)
.build_state(&mut world)
.build_system(|mut params: ParamSet<Vec<Query<&mut A>>>| {
let mut count = 0;
params.for_each(|mut query| count += query.iter_mut().count());
count
});
```
## Migration Guide
The API for `SystemBuilder` has changed. Instead of constructing a
builder with a world and then adding params, you first create a tuple of
param builders and then supply the world.
```rust
// Before
let system = SystemBuilder::<()>::new(&mut world)
.local::<u64>()
.builder::<Local<u64>>(|x| *x = 10)
.builder::<Query<&A>>(|builder| { builder.with::<B>(); })
.build(system);
// After
let system = (
ParamBuilder,
LocalBuilder(10),
QueryParamBuilder::new(|builder| { builder.with::<B>(); }),
)
.build_state(&mut world)
.build_system(system);
```
## Possible Future Work
Here are a few possible follow-up changes. I coded them up to prove that
this API can support them, but they aren't necessary for this PR.
* chescock/bevy#1
* chescock/bevy#2
* chescock/bevy#3
# Objective
- fix#14679
- bevy's performance highly depends on compiler optimization,inline hot
function could greatly help compiler to optimize our program
# Objective
- after #14502 ,explicit using clone_from should has better performance
because it could reuse the resources to avoid unnecessary allocations.
# Objective
- While developing a debug tool I saw the gap where it was not possible
to get all existing states from a World using reflection.
- This PR allows to iterate over all `States` types that exist in a
world, and modify them in case they implement `FreelyMutableState`.
- Two new methods are available on `App` and `SubApp` as helper to
register the data types:
- `register_state_reflect` and `register_mutable_state_reflect`
## Solution
- Two new data types are added:
- `ReflectState`: Allows to extract the current value of a state from
the World.
- `ReflectFreelyMutableState`: Allows to set the next state in a world,
similar to call `NextState::set`.
- There is no distinction between `States`, `SubStates` and
`ComputedStates`:
- `States` can register both `ReflectState` and
`ReflectFreelyMutableState`.
- `SubStates` can register both `ReflectState` and
`ReflectFreelyMutableState`.
- `ComputedStates` can register only `ReflectState` .
## Testing
- Added tests inside the `bevy_state` crate.

# Objective
- I made a mistake when fixing the merge conflicts here:
https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/14579#discussion_r1705377452
It wasn't caught because there's no easy way to trigger access conflicts
with resources without triggering them with components first.
# Objective
- Fixes https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/14575
- There is a soundness issue because we use `conflicts()` to check for
system ambiguities + soundness issues. However since the current
conflicts is a `Vec<T>`, we cannot express conflicts where there is no
specific `ComponentId` at fault. For example `q1: Query<EntityMut>, q2:
Query<EntityMut>`
There was a TODO to handle the `write_all` case but it was never
resolved
## Solution
- Introduce an `AccessConflict` enum that is either a list of specific
ids that are conflicting or `All` if all component ids are conflicting
## Testing
- Introduced a new unit test to check for the `EntityMut` case
## Migration guide
The `get_conflicts` method of `Access` now returns an `AccessConflict`
enum instead of simply a `Vec` of `ComponentId`s that are causing the
access conflict. This can be useful in cases where there are no
particular `ComponentId`s conflicting, but instead **all** of them are;
for example `fn system(q1: Query<EntityMut>, q2: Query<EntityRef>)`
# Objective
- Fixes#14337
## Solution
- Add a `cfg_attr` that derives `Refect` for this type.
## Testing
- I am going to make sure the tests pass on this PR before requesting
review, If more testing is necessary let me know some good action steps
to take.
# Objective
#13152 added support for reflecting functions. Now, we need a way to
register those functions such that they may be accessed anywhere within
the ECS.
## Solution
Added a `FunctionRegistry` type similar to `TypeRegistry`.
This allows a function to be registered and retrieved by name.
```rust
fn foo() -> i32 {
123
}
let mut registry = FunctionRegistry::default();
registry.register("my_function", foo);
let function = registry.get_mut("my_function").unwrap();
let value = function.call(ArgList::new()).unwrap().unwrap_owned();
assert_eq!(value.downcast_ref::<i32>(), Some(&123));
```
Additionally, I added an `AppFunctionRegistry` resource which wraps a
`FunctionRegistryArc`. Functions can be registered into this resource
using `App::register_function` or by getting a mutable reference to the
resource itself.
### Limitations
#### `Send + Sync`
In order to get this registry to work across threads, it needs to be
`Send + Sync`. This means that `DynamicFunction` needs to be `Send +
Sync`, which means that its internal function also needs to be `Send +
Sync`.
In most cases, this won't be an issue because standard Rust functions
(the type most likely to be registered) are always `Send + Sync`.
Additionally, closures tend to be `Send + Sync` as well, granted they
don't capture any `!Send` or `!Sync` variables.
This PR adds this `Send + Sync` requirement, but as mentioned above, it
hopefully shouldn't be too big of an issue.
#### Closures
Unfortunately, closures can't be registered yet. This will likely be
explored and added in a followup PR.
### Future Work
Besides addressing the limitations listed above, another thing we could
look into is improving the lookup of registered functions. One aspect is
in the performance of hashing strings. The other is in the developer
experience of having to call `std::any::type_name_of_val` to get the
name of their function (assuming they didn't give it a custom name).
## Testing
You can run the tests locally with:
```
cargo test --package bevy_reflect
```
---
## Changelog
- Added `FunctionRegistry`
- Added `AppFunctionRegistry` (a `Resource` available from `bevy_ecs`)
- Added `FunctionRegistryArc`
- Added `FunctionRegistrationError`
- Added `reflect_functions` feature to `bevy_ecs` and `bevy_app`
- `FunctionInfo` is no longer `Default`
- `DynamicFunction` now requires its wrapped function be `Send + Sync`
## Internal Migration Guide
> [!important]
> Function reflection was introduced as part of the 0.15 dev cycle. This
migration guide was written for developers relying on `main` during this
cycle, and is not a breaking change coming from 0.14.
`DynamicFunction` (both those created manually and those created with
`IntoFunction`), now require `Send + Sync`. All standard Rust functions
should meet that requirement. Closures, on the other hand, may not if
they capture any `!Send` or `!Sync` variables from its environment.
# Objective
To implement relations we will need to add a `ComponentIndex`, which is
a map from a Component to the list of archetypes that contain this
component.
One of the reasons is that with fragmenting relations the number of
archetypes will explode, so it will become inefficient to create and
update the query caches by iterating through the list of all archetypes.
In this PR, we introduce the `ComponentIndex`, and we update the
`QueryState` to make use of it:
- if a query has at least 1 required component (i.e. something other
than `()`, `Entity` or `Option<>`, etc.): for each of the required
components we find the list of archetypes that contain it (using the
ComponentIndex). Then, we select the smallest list among these. This
gives a small subset of archetypes to iterate through compared with
iterating through all new archetypes
- if it doesn't, then we keep using the current approach of iterating
through all new archetypes
# Implementation
- This breaks query iteration order, in the sense that we are not
guaranteed anymore to return results in the order in which the
archetypes were created. I think this should be fine because this wasn't
an explicit bevy guarantee so users should not be relying on this. I
updated a bunch of unit tests that were failing because of this.
- I had an issue with the borrow checker because iterating the list of
potential archetypes requires access to `&state.component_access`, which
was conflicting with the calls to
```
if state.new_archetype_internal(archetype) {
state.update_archetype_component_access(archetype, access);
}
```
which need a mutable access to the state.
The solution I chose was to introduce a `QueryStateView` which is a
temporary view into the `QueryState` which enables a "split-borrows"
kind of approach. It is described in detail in this blog post:
https://smallcultfollowing.com/babysteps/blog/2018/11/01/after-nll-interprocedural-conflicts/
# Test
The unit tests pass.

`WorldId`
## Migration Guide

# Objective
- currently, bevy employs sparse iteration if any of the target
components in the query are stored in a sparse set. it may lead to
increased cache misses in some cases, potentially impacting performance.
- partial fixes#12381
## Solution
- use dense iteration when an archetype and its table have the same
entity count.
- to avoid introducing complicate unsafe noise, this pr only implement
for `for_each ` style iteration.
- added a benchmark to test performance for hybrid iteration.
## Performance

Fixes#12139
## Solution
See this comment on original issue for my proposal:
https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/12139#issuecomment-2241915791
This PR is an implementation of this proposal.
I modified the implementation of `fmt::Debug` to instead display
`0v0#12345` to ensure entity index, generation, and raw bits are all
present in the output for debug purposes while still keeping log message
concise.
`fmt::Display` remains as is (`0v0`) to offer an even shorter output.
To me, this is the most non-intrusive fix for this issue.
## Testing
Add `fn entity_debug` test

- This feature would be very useful for the editor alongside system
stepping.
## Solution
- Adds the caller location to column data.
- Mutations now `track_caller` all the way up to the public API.
- Commands that invoke these functions immediately call
`Location::caller`, and pass this into the functions, instead of the
functions themselves attempting to get the caller. This would not work
for commands which are deferred, as the commands are executed by the
scheduler, not the user's code.
## Testing
- The `component_change_detection` example now shows where the component
was mutated:
```
2024-07-28T06:57:48.946022Z INFO component_change_detection: Entity { index: 1, generation: 1 }: New value: MyComponent(0.0)
2024-07-28T06:57:49.004371Z INFO component_change_detection: Entity { index: 1, generation: 1 }: New value: MyComponent(1.0)
2024-07-28T06:57:49.012738Z WARN component_change_detection: Change detected!
-> value: Ref(MyComponent(1.0))
-> added: false
-> changed: true
-> changed by: examples/ecs/component_change_detection.rs:36:23
```
- It's also possible to inspect change location from a debugger:

## Changelog
- Added source locations to ECS change detection behind the
`track_change_detection` flag.
## Migration Guide
- Added `changed_by` field to many internal ECS functions used with
change detection when the `track_change_detection` feature flag is
enabled. Use Location::caller() to provide the source of the function
call.
