Basisu for Godot Engine about basis_universal HOT 7 CLOSED

Also, I've been planning on adding a simple C-style entrypoint to the compressor. I have an implementation that I need to check in.

Hi - There's a C++ compressor class here:
https://github.com/BinomialLLC/basis_universal/blob/master/basisu_comp.h

We are open to alternatives to OpenMP. I think removing it from the compressor would be a mostly mechanical exercise, if we used lambdas and a simple job system. We're not getting good load balancing with OpenMP on larger videos, so I may have to bite the bullet and do it soon. I'll add this to the TODO list.

I would recommend either supporting c++11 or c++03 for compatibility. This means no c++17 parallel for.

Got it, I'm staying with C++11.

BTW - the transcoder doesn't use OpenMP. It's just the encoder that does. The transcode is pretty vanilla C++03 code (no multithreading).

I have locally eliminated all OpenMP usage from the encoder - I'm testing all the changes now. They'll go in by the end of the week.

Okay, all OpenMP usage is gone. Please let me know if you have any issues.
I'll be adding a C-style API and separating out the encoder into a lib soon. Which will be easy - basisu_tool.cpp is the command line tool, everything else goes into the lib.
