# 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
- Make it possible to know *what* changed your component or resource.
- Common need when debugging, when you want to know the last code
location that mutated a value in the ECS.
- 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.

# Objective
- `from_reflect_or_world` is an internal utilty used in the
implementations of `ReflectComponent` and `ReflectBundle` to create a
`T` given a `&dyn Reflect` by trying to use `FromReflect`, and if that
fails it falls back to `ReflectFromWorld`
- reflecting `FromWorld` is not intuitive though: often it is implicitly
implemented by deriving `Default` so people might not even be aware of
it.
- the panic messages mentioning `ReflectFromWorld` are not directly
correlated to what the user would have to do (reflect `FromWorld`)
## Solution
- Also check for `ReflectDefault` in addition to `ReflectFromWorld`.
- Change the panic messages to mention the reflected trait rather than
the `Reflect*` types.
---
## Changelog
- `ReflectComponent` and `ReflectBundle` no longer require `T:
FromReflect` but instead only `T: Reflect`.
- `ReflectComponent` and `ReflectBundle` will also work with types that
only reflected `Default` and not `FromWorld`.
## Migration Guide
- `ReflectBundle::insert` now requires an additional `&TypeRegistry`
parameter.
# Objective
- In #9623 I forgot to change the `FromWorld` requirement for
`ReflectResource`, fix that;
- Fix#12129
## Solution
- Use the same approach as in #9623 to try using `FromReflect` and
falling back to the `ReflectFromWorld` contained in the `TypeRegistry`
provided
- Just reflect `Resource` on `State<S>` since now that's possible
without introducing new bounds.
---
## Changelog
- `ReflectResource`'s `FromType<T>` implementation no longer requires
`T: FromWorld`, but instead now requires `FromReflect`.
- `ReflectResource::insert`, `ReflectResource::apply_or_insert` and
`ReflectResource::copy` now take an extra `&TypeRegistry` parameter.
## Migration Guide
- Users of `#[reflect(Resource)]` will need to also implement/derive
`FromReflect` (should already be the default).
- Users of `#[reflect(Resource)]` may now want to also add `FromWorld`
to the list of reflected traits in case their `FromReflect`
implementation may fail.
- Users of `ReflectResource` will now need to pass a `&TypeRegistry` to
its `insert`, `apply_or_insert` and `copy` methods.
# Objective
- Part of #11590
- Fix `unsafe_op_in_unsafe_fn` for trivial cases in bevy_ecs
## Solution
Fix `unsafe_op_in_unsafe_fn` in bevy_ecs for trivial cases, i.e., add an
`unsafe` block when the safety comment already exists or add a comment
like "The invariants are uphold by the caller".

Repetitively fetching ReflectResource and ReflectComponent from the
TypeRegistry is costly.
We want to access the underlying `fn`s. to do so, we expose the
`ReflectResourceFns` and `ReflectComponentFns` stored in ReflectResource
and ReflectComponent.
---
## Changelog
- Add the `fn_pointers` methods to `ReflectResource` and
`ReflectComponent` returning the underlying `ReflectResourceFns` and
`ReflectComponentFns`
# Objective
- Cleanup the `reflect.rs` file in `bevy_ecs`, it's very large and can
get difficult to navigate
## Solution
- Split the file into 3 modules, re-export the types in the
`reflect/mod.rs` to keep a perfectly identical API.
- Add **internal** architecture doc explaining how `ReflectComponent`
works. Note that this doc is internal only, since `component.rs` is not
exposed publicly.
### Tips to reviewers
To review this change properly, you need to compare it to the previous
version of `reflect.rs`. The diff from this PR does not help at all!
What you will need to do is compare `reflect.rs` individually with each
newly created file.
Here is how I did it:
- Adding my fork as remote `git remote add nicopap
https://github.com/nicopap/bevy.git`
- Checkout out the branch `git checkout nicopap/split_ecs_reflect`
- Checkout the old `reflect.rs` by running `git checkout HEAD~1 --
crates/bevy_ecs/src/reflect.rs`
- Compare the old with the new with `git diff --no-index
crates/bevy_ecs/src/reflect.rs crates/bevy_ecs/src/reflect/component.rs`
You could also concatenate everything into a single file and compare
against it:
- `cat
crates/bevy_ecs/src/reflect/{component,resource,map_entities,mod}.rs >
new_reflect.rs`
- `git diff --no-index crates/bevy_ecs/src/reflect.rs new_reflect.rs`
