# 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
This adds a custom profile for testing against stress tests. Bevy seemingly gets notably faster with LTO turned on. To more accurately depict production level performance, LTO and other rustc-level optimizations should be enabled when performance testing on stress tests.
Also updated the stress test docs to reflect that users should be using it.
# 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.

# 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.
# Objective
A separate `tracing` span for running a system's commands is created, even if the system doesn't have commands. This is adding extra measuring overhead (see #4892) where it's not needed.
## Solution
Move the span into `ParallelCommandState` and `CommandQueue`'s `SystemParamState::apply`. To get the right metadata for the span, a additional `&SystemMeta` parameter was added to `SystemParamState::apply`.
---
## Changelog
Added: `SystemMeta::name`
Changed: Systems without `Commands` and `ParallelCommands` will no longer show a "system_commands" span when profiling.
Changed: `SystemParamState::apply` now takes a `&SystemMeta` parameter in addition to the provided `&mut World`.
# Objective
Change detection can be spuriously triggered by setting a field to the same value as before. As a result, a common pattern is to write:
```rust
if *foo != value {
*foo = value;
}
```
This is confusing to read, and heavy on boilerplate.
Adopted from #5373, but untangled and rebased to current `bevy/main`.
## Solution
1. Add a method to the `DetectChanges` trait that implements this boilerplate when the appropriate trait bounds are met.
2. Document this minor footgun, and point users to it.
## Changelog
* added the `set_if_neq` method to avoid triggering change detection when the new and previous values are equal. This will work on both components and resources.
## Migration Guide
If you are manually checking if a component or resource's value is equal to its new value before setting it to avoid triggering change detection, migrate to the clearer and more convenient `set_if_neq` method.
## Context
Related to #2363 as it avoids triggering change detection, but not a complete solution (as it still requires triggering it when real changes are made).

Add a section about install `vulkan-loader` on Gentoo.
# Objective
- Clarify the dependency about install on Gentoo with NVIDIA GPU and using a proprietary driver.
## Solution
- Emerge `vulkan-loader` to help Bevy to find the correct ICD.
# Objective
The following code:
```rs
use bevy::prelude::Image;
use image::{ DynamicImage, GenericImage, Rgba };
fn main() {
let mut dynamic_image = DynamicImage::new_rgb32f(1, 1);
dynamic_image.put_pixel(0, 0, Rgba([1, 1, 1, 1]));
let image = Image::from_dynamic(dynamic_image, false); // Panic!
println!("{image:?}");
}
```
Can cause an assertion failed:
```
thread 'main' panicked at 'assertion failed: `(left == right)`

```
It seems to be cause by a copypasta in `crates/bevy_render/src/texture/image_texture_conversion.rs`. Let's fix it.
## Solution
```diff
// DynamicImage::ImageRgb32F(image) => {
- let a = u16::max_value();
+ let a = 1f32;
```
This will fix the conversion.
---
## Changelog
- Fixed the alpha channel of the `image::DynamicImage::ImageRgb32F` to `bevy_render::texture::Image` conversion in `bevy_render::texture::Image::from_dynamic()`.
# Objective
The feature doesn't have any use case in libraries or applications and many users use this feature incorrectly. See the issue for details.
Closes#5753.
## Solution
Remove it.
---
## Changelog
### Removed
- `render` feature group.
## Migration Guide
Instead of using `render` feature group use dependencies directly. This group consisted of `bevy_core_pipeline`, `bevy_pbr`, `bevy_gltf`, `bevy_render`, `bevy_sprite`, `bevy_text` and `bevy_ui`. You probably want to check if you need all of them.
# Objective
- https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/5364 Added a few features to the AsBindGroup derive, but if you don't know they exist they aren't documented anywhere.
## Solution
- Document the new arguments in the doc block for the derive.
# Objective
Speed up bundle insertion and spawning from a bundle.
## Solution
Use the same technique used in #6800 to remove the branch on storage type when writing components from a `Bundle` into storage.
- Add a `StorageType` argument to the closure on `Bundle::get_components`.
- Pass `C::Storage::STORAGE_TYPE` into that argument.
- Match on that argument instead of reading from a `Vec<StorageType>` in `BundleInfo`.
- Marked all implementations of `Bundle::get_components` as inline to encourage dead code elimination.
The `Vec<StorageType>` in `BundleInfo` was also removed as it's no longer needed. If users were reliant on this, they can either use the compile time constants or fetch the information from `Components`. Should save a rather negligible amount of memory.
## Performance
Microbenchmarks show a slight improvement to inserting components into existing entities, as well as spawning from a bundle. Ranging about 8-16% faster depending on the benchmark.

## Changelog
Changed: `Bundle::get_components` now takes a `FnMut(StorageType, OwningPtr)`. The provided storage type must be correct for the component being fetched.
# Objective
Partially address #3492.
## Solution
Document the remaining undocumented members of `bevy_utils` and set `warn(missing_docs)` on the crate level. Also enabled `clippy::undocumented_unsafe_blocks` as a warning on the crate to keep it in sync with `bevy_ecs`'s warnings.
# Objective
- Fixes#6630, fixes#6679
- Improve scene viewer in cases where there are more than one scene in a gltf file
## Solution
- Can select which scene to display using `#SceneN`, defaults to scene 0 if not present
- Display the number of scenes available if there are more than one
# Objective
```rust
// makes clippy complain about 'taking a mutable reference to a `const` item'
let color = *Color::RED.set_a(0.5);
// Now you can do
let color = Color::RED.with_a(0.5);

# Objective
- Fixes https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/6417
## Solution
- clear_trackers was not being called on the render world. This causes the removed components vecs to continuously grow. This PR adds clear trackers to the end of RenderStage::Cleanup
## Migration Guide
The call to `clear_trackers` in `App` has been moved from the schedule to App::update for the main world and calls to `clear_trackers` have been added for sub_apps in the same function. This was due to needing stronger guarantees. If clear_trackers isn't called on a world it can lead to memory leaks in `RemovedComponents`.
# Objective
* Implementing a custom `SystemParam` by hand requires implementing three traits -- four if it is read-only.
* The trait `SystemParamFetch<'w, 's>` is a workaround from before we had generic associated types, and is no longer necessary.
## Solution
* Combine the trait `SystemParamFetch` with `SystemParamState`.
* I decided to remove the `Fetch` name and keep the `State` name, since the former was consistently conflated with the latter.
* Replace the trait `ReadOnlySystemParamFetch` with `ReadOnlySystemParam`, which simplifies trait bounds in generic code.
---
## Changelog
- Removed the trait `SystemParamFetch`, moving its functionality to `SystemParamState`.
- Replaced the trait `ReadOnlySystemParamFetch` with `ReadOnlySystemParam`.
## Migration Guide
The trait `SystemParamFetch` has been removed, and its functionality has been transferred to `SystemParamState`.
```rust
// Before
impl SystemParamState for MyParamState {
fn init(world: &mut World, system_meta: &mut SystemMeta) -> Self { ... }
}
impl<'w, 's> SystemParamFetch<'w, 's> for MyParamState {
type Item = MyParam<'w, 's>;
fn get_param(...) -> Self::Item;
}
// After
impl SystemParamState for MyParamState {
type Item<'w, 's> = MyParam<'w, 's>; // Generic associated types!
fn init(world: &mut World, system_meta: &mut SystemMeta) -> Self { ... }
fn get_param<'w, 's>(...) -> Self::Item<'w, 's>;
}
```
The trait `ReadOnlySystemParamFetch` has been replaced with `ReadOnlySystemParam`.
```rust
// Before
unsafe impl ReadOnlySystemParamFetch for MyParamState {}
// After
unsafe impl<'w, 's> ReadOnlySystemParam for MyParam<'w, 's> {}
```
# Objective
It's not clear to users how to handle `!Sync` types as components and resources in the absence of engine level support for them.
## Solution
Added a section to `Component`'s and `Resource`'s type level docs on available options for making a type `Sync` when it holds `!Sync` fields, linking `bevy_utils::synccell::SyncCell` and the currently unstable `std::sync::Exclusive`.
Also added a compile_fail doctest that illustrates how to apply `SyncCell`. These will break when/if #6572 gets merged, at which point these docs should be updated.
# Objective
- Make running animation fluid skipping 'idle' frame.
## Solution
- Loop through the specified indices instead of through the whole sprite sheet.
The example is correct, is just the feeling that the animation loop is not seamless.
Based on the solution suggested by @mockersf in #5429.
# Objective
This is an adoption of #5792. Fixes#5791.
## Solution
Implemented all the required reflection traits for `VecDeque`, taking from `Vec`'s impls.

# Objective
- Get rid of giant match statement to get PixelInfo.
- This will allow for supporting any texture that is uncompressed, instead of people needing to PR in any textures that are supported in wgpu, but not bevy.
## Solution
- More conservative alternative to https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/6788, where we don't try to make some of the calculations correct for compressed types.
- Delete `PixelInfo` and get the pixel_size directly from wgpu. Data from wgpu is here: https://docs.rs/wgpu-types/0.14.0/src/wgpu_types/lib.rs.html#2359
- Panic if the texture is a compressed type. An integer byte size of a pixel is no longer a valid concept when talking about compressed textures.
- All internal usages use `pixel_size` and not `pixel_info` and are on uncompressed formats. Most of these usages are on either explicit texture formats or slightly indirectly through `TextureFormat::bevy_default()`. The other uses are in `TextureAtlas` and have other calculations that assumes the texture is uncompressed.
## Changelog
- remove `PixelInfo` and get `pixel_size` from wgpu
## Migration Guide
`PixelInfo` has been removed. `PixelInfo::components` is equivalent to `texture_format.describe().components`. `PixelInfo::type_size` can be gotten from `texture_format.describe().block_size/ texture_format.describe().components`. But note this can yield incorrect results for some texture types like Rg11b10Float.
# Objective
Adds a cylinder shape. Fixes#2282.
## Solution
- I added a custom cylinder shape, taken from [here](https://github.com/rparrett/typey_birb/blob/main/src/cylinder.rs) with permission from @rparrett.
- I also added the cylinder shape to the `3d_shapes` example scene.

* Modified and added tests for these under examples in ``system_piping.rs``.
# Objective
- Make `AudioOutput` a `Resource`.
## Solution
- Do not store `OutputStream` in the struct.
- `mem::forget` `OutputStream`.

## Changelog
### Added
- `AudioOutput` is now a `Resource`.
## Migration Guide
- Use `Res<AudioOutput<Source>>` instead of `NonSend<AudioOutput<Source>>`. Same for `Mut` variants.
# Objective
Resolves#4597 (based on the work from #6056 and a refresh of #4147)
When using reflection, we may often end up in a scenario where we have a Dynamic representing a certain type. Unfortunately, we can't just call `MyType::from_reflect` as we do not have knowledge of the concrete type (`MyType`) at runtime.
Such scenarios happen when we call `Reflect::clone_value`, use the reflection deserializers, or create the Dynamic type ourselves.
## Solution
Add a `ReflectFromReflect` type data struct.
This struct allows us to easily convert Dynamic representations of our types into their respective concrete instances.
```rust
#[derive(Reflect, FromReflect)]
#[reflect(FromReflect)] // <- Register `ReflectFromReflect`
struct MyStruct(String);
let type_id = TypeId::of::<MyStruct>();
// Register our type
let mut registry = TypeRegistry::default();
registry.register::<MyStruct>();
// Create a concrete instance
let my_struct = MyStruct("Hello world".to_string());

### Why this PR?
###### Why now?
The three main reasons I closed#4147 were that:
1. Registering `ReflectFromReflect` is clunky (deriving `FromReflect` *and* registering `ReflectFromReflect`)
2. The ecosystem and Bevy itself didn't seem to pay much attention to deriving `FromReflect`
3. I didn't see a lot of desire from the community for such a feature
However, as time has passed it seems 2 and 3 are not really true anymore. Bevy is internally adding lots more `FromReflect` derives, which should make this feature all the more useful. Additionally, I have seen a growing number of people look for something like `ReflectFromReflect`.
I think 1 is still an issue, but not a horrible one. Plus it could be made much, much better using #6056. And I think splitting this feature out of #6056 could lead to #6056 being adopted sooner (or at least make the need more clear to users).
###### Why not just re-open #4147?
The main reason is so that this PR can garner more attention than simply re-opening the old one. This helps bring fresh eyes to the PR for potentially more perspectives/reviews.

## Changelog
* Added `ReflectFromReflect`
Co-authored-by: Gino Valente <49806985+MrGVSV@users.noreply.github.com>
# Objective
#6547 accidentally broke change detection for SparseSet components by using `Ticks::from_tick_cells` with the wrong argument order.
## Solution
Use the right argument order. Add a regression test.
# Objective
The window event types currently don't support reflection. This PR adds support to them (as requested [here](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/6223#issuecomment-1273852329)).
## Solution
Implement `Reflect` + `FromReflect` for window event types. Relevant traits are also being reflected with `#[reflect(...)]` attributes.
Additionally, this PR derives `Reflect` + `FromReflect` for `WindowDescriptor` and the types it depends on so that `CreateWindow` events can be fully manipulated through reflection.
Finally, this PR adds `FromReflect` for `PathBuf` as a value type, which is needed for `FileDragAndDrop`.
This adds the "glam" feature to the `bevy_reflect` dependency for package `bevy_window`. Since `bevy_window` transitively depends on `glam` already, all this brings in are the reflection `impl`s.
## Open questions
Should `app.register_type::<PathBuf>();` be moved to `CorePlugin`? I added it to `WindowPlugin` because that's where it's used and `CorePlugin` doesn't seem to register all the missing std types, but it would also make sense in `CorePlugin` I believe since it's a commonly used type.

## Changelog
Added:
- Implemented `Reflect` + `FromReflect` for window events and related types. These types are automatically registered when adding the `WindowPlugin`.
# Objective
- Fixes#6841
- In some case, the number of maximum storage buffers is `u32::MAX` which doesn't fit in a `i32`
## Solution
- Add an option to have a `u32` in a `ShaderDefVal`
having `doc(hidden)` on the read only version of a generated mutable world query leads to docs on the readonly item having a dead link. It also makes it annoying to have nice docs for libraries attempting to expose derived `WorldQuery` structs as re-exporting the read only item does not cause it to appear in docs even though it would be intended for users to know about the read only world query and use it.
# Objective
Fixes#6866.
## Solution
Docs now should describe what the _front_, _first_, _back_, and _last_ elements are for an implementor of the `bevy::reflect::list::List` Trait. Further, the docs should describe how `bevy::reflect::list::List::push` and `bevy::reflect::list::List::pop` should act on these elements.
