^{OpenUSD v26.05}

Changelog

Important

This repository was renamed to https://github.com/wabiverse/swift-usd.git. If you previously specified https://github.com/wabiverse/SwiftUSD.git in your own SwiftPM package dependency URLs, or used SwiftUSD to refer to this package in your own SwiftPM package, change it to swift-usd. This is because the apple/SwiftUsd package conflicted with our own package name, and we will be using apple/SwiftUsd to bring in precompiled binaries by default across all Apple Darwin platforms.

Commits

• [openusd-v26.05-migration] Update to OpenUSD v26.05 using upstream-to-SwiftPM transpiler/patch pipeline

Changes

• For a full list of changes from OpenUSD v24.08 - v26.05, see the OpenUSD changelog.
• Starting with this release, we will be tracking all future upstream OpenUSD changes in our dev branch, and all current OpenUSD releases in our release branch, if you were previously tracking our now deprecated main branch, track our new dev branch instead. This is made possible by the new changes in the openusd update command (source code), usage:

  # update all swiftusd's openusd source with the latest v26.05 release
  swift package --disable-sandbox plugin openusd update v26.05
  
  # or update all swiftusd's openusd source with the latest changes from the openusd 'dev' branch
  swift package --disable-sandbox plugin openusd update
  
  # build swiftusd for android, linux, all apple platforms, or [windows (WIP)]
  swift build

• Experimental Android support - build OpenUSD apps for Android:

  SWIFTUSD_ANDROID_SUPPORT_ENABLED=1 swift bundler run --simulator "Pixel_10_Pro" -c release UsdView

v24.8.21 | Android & ARC

_{SwiftUSD v24.8.21 | 🎧swift on.}

^{Experimental Android Support, ARC-Managed Lifetimes, UsdView, & Safer Swift OpenUSD API.}

Changelog

Commits

• [33e374c] ARC: Give UsdStage, SdfLayer, Hgi, and UsdImagingGLEngine real refcounting

Changes

• Experimental Android support - build OpenUSD apps for Android:

  SWIFTUSD_ANDROID_SUPPORT_ENABLED=1 swift bundler run --simulator "Pixel_10_Pro" -c release UsdView

• Adopts parts of the apple/SwiftUsd overlay for a safer Swift OpenUSD API - client code should now hold UsdStage directly instead of UsdStageRefPtr; dereferencing and lifetime management are handled internally.
• Extends the apple/SwiftUsd overlay to fix Swift/C++ interop bugs around std::string ↔ String conversions and ambiguous Xformable operation overloads that previously caused Swift compiler crashes on Linux.

Breaking

• UsdStage.createNew(...), UsdStage.open(...), and UsdStage.createInMemory() now return UsdStage directly with proper ARC-managed lifetimes, client code should now hold UsdStage directly instead of UsdStageRefPtr; dereferencing and lifetime management are handled internally.
• HgiGL.createHgi(), HgiMetal.createHgi(), and UsdImagingGL.Engine.createEngine(...) now return the types directly with proper ARC-managed lifetimes, instead of a shared_ptr-backed ...Ptr/ ...SharedPtr wrapper. The HgiGLPtr, HgiMetalPtr, and UsdImagingGLEngineSharedPtr/EngineSharedPtr typealiases are removed.

Fixed

• UsdStage and SdfLayer instances held by Swift now have correct reference-counted lifetimes. Their retain/release hooks were previously no-op stubs, so Swift's ARC calls didn't actually affect the underlying object's refcount; they now go through apple/SwiftUsd's Tf_RetainReleaseHelper and properly participate in TfRefBase refcounting.
• HgiGL, HgiMetal, and UsdImagingGLEngine are now reference-counted Swift types (they now go through our own Tf_SharedPtrRetainReleaseHelper and properly participate in refcounting) - Swift automatically releases them when no longer referenced, so manual lifetime workarounds are no longer needed.

_{SwiftUSD v24.8.11}

^{Add support for creating instances of UsdImagingGL.Engine from Swift.}

Changelog

• Removed a dependency which may strangely break visionOS versions older than 2.

  • Note: the version of Xcode that GitHub actions is using is too old, but SwiftUSD successfully builds on visionOS v2 and later.

• Temporarily remove the bundled stdlib shader resources from MaterialX, due to the metal shader compilation in Swift Bundler not yet being able to compile metal shaders contextualized within their source code tree, currently it's limited to just compiling them one by one (without any source code context, so includes within metal shaders and things fail until we get around to supporting that in the bundler).

  • Adds an additional patch to ensure the MXResources/libraries directory is fully excluded in SwiftPM, else errors to compile the shaders may still occur in some instances.

• Add Swift support for UsdImagingGL.Engine.

• Add Swift support for Gf.Frustum.

• Fix various Microsoft Windows compilation errors, nearly bringing support for Microsoft Windows, all of the C/C++ side successfully builds, there's just a couple places where Swift/C++ interop on windows does not like the fact that smart pointers are used on types also marked with SWIFT_IMMORTAL_REFERENCE (also known as reference pointers), which allegedly "is not currently supported in C++ interop", however Swift currently supports this just fine on all other platforms (all Darwin platforms as well as on Linux), so this needs revisiting.

• Bring over the main USD imaging libraries to Swift.
