What's New in Bifrost 2.14.0.0 SDK shipping with Bifrost 2.14.0.0 for Maya

Bifrost 2.14.0.0 SDK CMake files use CMake 3.20 and up.

Bifrost 2.14.0.0 SDK contains API breaking changes.

Amino

Cpp

• The method isJobCancelled has been deprecated. This follows the deprecation in 2.13 of Amino's cancellation annotations. It will always return false.

• Instead, explicitly test the Amino::StopToken:

  if (stopToken.stopRequested()) { /* some cleanup and exit code*/ }

• Note that a callback (class StopCallback, similar to std::stop_callback) can be attached to an Amino::StopToken. See <...>/sdk/include/Amino/Core/StopToken.h

Core

• More usage of Amino::StringView in APIs. See <...>/sdk/include/Amino/Core/NamingUtilities.h.

Bifrost

Geometry

• Addition of a Bifrost instance geometry validator. See <...>/sdk/include/Bifrost/Geometry/Validator.h.

• Addition of new geometry component string constants used in Bifrost::Object as keys. See <..>/sdk/include/Bifrost/Geometry/GeoPropertyKey.h.
