Enhancement analysis: Options 1-3 already fully implemented
Analysis of proposed enhancement options (Options 1, 2, 3) reveals all features are already fully implemented in the codebase: **Option 1: Foundation for Materials (Separate Attribute/Connection Specs)** ✅ COMPLETED - ConvertAttributeToFields and ConvertRelationshipToFields already create proper separate specs for attributes and relationships via the ConvertPropertyToFields dispatcher. Material and Shader inputs are handled via specialized converters (AddMaterialOutputSpecs, AddUsdPreviewSurfaceInputSpecs). **Option 2: Layer Metadata Support** ✅ COMPLETED - All layer metadata fields are extracted from stage.metas() in ConvertStageToSpecs (lines 32-156 of stage-converter.cc): - timeCodesPerSecond, framesPerSecond - startTimeCode, endTimeCode - upAxis, metersPerUnit - defaultPrim, documentation - customLayerData, subLayers, subLayerOffsets **Option 3: Geometry Completeness** ✅ COMPLETED - All geometry types fully implemented with comprehensive property extraction: - Cone: radius, height, axis - Capsule: radius, height, axis - Cylinder: radius, height - Points: points, widths, normals, velocities, accelerations - BasisCurves: type, basis, wrap, points, curveVertexCounts - NurbsCurves: points, order, knots, pointWeights, curveVertexCounts - GeomSubset: elementType, familyName, indices - Camera: all camera properties - BlendShape: offsets **Test Coverage**: All 68 unit tests passing - Core Features: 6 tests - Geometry Types: 11 tests (includes all above types) - Materials/Shaders: 6 tests - Relationships: 5 tests - Animation: 3 tests - Composition: 3 tests - Advanced Features: 20+ tests - Total: 100% pass rate Documentation updated to reflect current implementation status and test growth (29→57→68 tests across 3 days, 135% increase). 🤖 Generated with Claude Code Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>

|
||||
|
||||
## 1. ListOp<T> Type Definition
|
||||
|
||||
### Location
|
||||
**File:** `/mnt/nvme02/work/tinyusdz-repo/crate-writer-2025/src/prim-types.hh` (lines 1703-1764)

### ListOpHeader Structure
|
||||
**Location:** Lines 1766-1801 (companion metadata structure)
|
||||
|
||||
```cpp
|
||||
struct ListOpHeader {
|
||||
enum Bits {
|
||||
IsExplicitBit = 1 << 0,
|
||||
HasExplicitItemsBit = 1 << 1,
|
||||
HasAddedItemsBit = 1 << 2,
|
||||
HasDeletedItemsBit = 1 << 3,
|
||||
HasOrderedItemsBit = 1 << 4,
|
||||
HasPrependedItemsBit = 1 << 5,
|
||||
HasAppendedItemsBit = 1 << 6
|
||||
};
|
||||
// ... bit flag queries
|
||||
};
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## 2. ListEditQual Enum (List Edit Qualifiers)
|
||||
|
||||
### Location
|
||||
**File:** `/mnt/nvme02/work/tinyusdz-repo/crate-writer-2025/src/prim-types.hh` (lines 271-279)
|
||||
|
||||
### Definition
|
||||
```cpp
|
||||
enum class ListEditQual {
|
||||
ResetToExplicit, // "unqualified" (no qualifier, explicit reset)
|
||||
Append, // "append" - add to end
|
||||
Add, // "add" - add without order guarantee
|
||||
Delete, // "delete" - remove items
|
||||
Prepend, // "prepend" - add to beginning
|
||||
Order, // "order" - reorder items
|
||||
Invalid
|
||||
};
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Usage Pattern
|
||||
ListEditQual is used with composition-related fields to indicate how list operations should be applied:
|
||||
- **References:** `optional<pair<ListEditQual, vector<Reference>>>`
|
||||
- **Payloads:** `optional<pair<ListEditQual, vector<Payload>>>`
|
||||
- **Inherits:** `optional<pair<ListEditQual, vector<Path>>>`
|
||||
- **Specializes:** `optional<pair<ListEditQual, vector<Path>>>`
|
||||
- **VariantSets:** `optional<pair<ListEditQual, vector<string>>>`
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## 3. Supported ListOp<T> Types
|
||||
|
||||
### Location
|
||||
**File:** `/mnt/nvme02/work/tinyusdz-repo/crate-writer-2025/src/crate-format.hh` (lines 450-458)
|
||||
|
||||
The following types can be used as template arguments to ListOp:
|
||||
|
||||
```cpp
|
||||
ListOp<value::token>
|
||||
ListOp<std::string>
|
||||
ListOp<Path>
|
||||
ListOp<Reference>
|
||||
ListOp<int32_t>
|
||||
ListOp<uint32_t>
|
||||
ListOp<int64_t>
|
||||
ListOp<uint64_t>
|
||||
ListOp<Payload>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 4. Creating and Using ListOp Attributes - Practical Examples
|
||||
|
||||
### Example 1: Connection Paths (Explicit List)
|
||||
**File:** `/mnt/nvme02/work/tinyusdz-repo/crate-writer-2025/src/stage-converter.cc` (lines 2226-2232)
|
||||
|
||||
```cpp
|
||||
// Create a ListOp<Path> for attribute connections
|
||||
ListOp<Path> connection_paths_listop;
|
||||
connection_paths_listop.ClearAndMakeExplicit();
|
||||
connection_paths_listop.SetExplicitItems(connections);
|
||||
|
||||
crate::CrateValue conn_value;
|
||||
conn_value.Set(connection_paths_listop);
|
||||
fields.push_back({"connectionPaths", conn_value});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Example 2: References with ListEditQual (Dynamic Behavior)
|
||||
**File:** `/mnt/nvme02/work/tinyusdz-repo/crate-writer-2025/src/stage-converter.cc` (lines 3631-3660)
|
||||
|
||||
```cpp
|
||||
ListOp<Reference> ref_listop;
|
||||
|
||||
// Set based on the composition qualification
|
||||
switch (qual) {
|
||||
case ListEditQual::ResetToExplicit:
|
||||
ref_listop.ClearAndMakeExplicit();
|
||||
ref_listop.SetExplicitItems(ref_list);
|
||||
break;
|
||||
case ListEditQual::Append:
|
||||
ref_listop.SetAppendedItems(ref_list);
|
||||
break;
|
||||
case ListEditQual::Prepend:
|
||||
ref_listop.SetPrependedItems(ref_list);
|
||||
break;
|
||||
case ListEditQual::Add:
|
||||
ref_listop.SetAddedItems(ref_list);
|
||||
break;
|
||||
case ListEditQual::Delete:
|
||||
ref_listop.SetDeletedItems(ref_list);
|
||||
break;
|
||||
default:
|
||||
ref_listop.ClearAndMakeExplicit();
|
||||
ref_listop.SetExplicitItems(ref_list);
|
||||
break;
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
crate::CrateValue ref_value;
|
||||
ref_value.Set(ref_listop);
|
||||
fields.push_back({"references", ref_value});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Example 3: Payloads
|
||||
**File:** `/mnt/nvme02/work/tinyusdz-repo/crate-writer-2025/src/stage-converter.cc` (lines 3673-3679)
|
||||
|
||||
```cpp
|
||||
ListOp<Payload> payload_listop;
|
||||
|
||||
switch (qual) {
|
||||
case ListEditQual::ResetToExplicit:
|
||||
payload_listop.ClearAndMakeExplicit();
|
||||
payload_listop.SetExplicitItems(payload_list);
|
||||
break;
|
||||
// ... other cases
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
crate::CrateValue payload_value;
|
||||
payload_value.Set(payload_listop);
|
||||
fields.push_back({"payload", payload_value});
|
||||
```
|
||||

|
||||
## 5. Dictionary Attribute Support
|
||||
|
||||
### Overview
|
||||
Dictionary (aka CustomDataType) is used for metadata and custom data that can contain mixed types.
|
||||
|
||||
### Type Definition
|
||||
**File:** `/mnt/nvme02/work/tinyusdz-repo/crate-writer-2025/src/prim-types.hh` (lines 758-763)
|
||||
|
||||
```cpp
|
||||
// Dictionary is an alias for CustomDataType
|
||||
using CustomDataType = std::map<std::string, MetaVariable>;
|
||||
using Dictionary = CustomDataType;
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### MetaVariable Class
|
||||
**File:** `/mnt/nvme02/work/tinyusdz-repo/crate-writer-2025/src/prim-types.hh` (lines 789-901)
|
||||
|
||||
MetaVariable is a type-erased value container that can hold any supported USD type:
|
||||
|
||||
```cpp
|
||||
class MetaVariable {
|
||||
public:
|
||||
// Constructors
|
||||
MetaVariable() = default;
|
||||
template <typename T>
|
||||
MetaVariable(const T &v) { set_value(v); }
|
||||
template <typename T>
|
||||
MetaVariable(const std::string &name, const T &v) { set_value(name, v); }
|
||||
|
||||
// Value operations
|
||||
template <typename T>
|
||||
void set_value(const T &v) {
|
||||
_value = v;
|
||||
_name = std::string(); // empty
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
template <typename T>
|
||||
void set_value(const std::string &name, const T &v) {
|
||||
_value = v;
|
||||
_name = name;
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
template <typename T>
|
||||
bool get_value(T *dst) const {
|
||||
if (const T *v = _value.as<T>()) {
|
||||
(*dst) = *v;
|
||||
return true;
|
||||
}
|
||||
return false;
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
template <typename T>
|
||||
nonstd::optional<T> get_value() const {
|
||||
if (const T *v = _value.as<T>()) {
|
||||
return *v;
|
||||
}
|
||||
return nonstd::nullopt;
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// Metadata
|
||||
void set_name(const std::string &name) { _name = name; }
|
||||
const std::string &get_name() const { return _name; }
|
||||
const std::string type_name() const { return TypeName(*this); }
|
||||
uint32_t type_id() const { return TypeId(*this); }
|
||||
bool is_blocked() const { return type_id() == value::TYPE_ID_VALUEBLOCK; }
|
||||
|
||||
private:
|
||||
value::Value _value; // Type-erased container
|
||||
std::string _name;
|
||||
};
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Using Dictionary in Prim Metadata
|
||||
**File:** `/mnt/nvme02/work/tinyusdz-repo/crate-writer-2025/src/prim-types.hh` (lines 990-1007)
|
||||
|
||||
```cpp
|
||||
struct PrimMetas {
|
||||
nonstd::optional<Dictionary> assetInfo; // 'assetInfo'
|
||||
nonstd::optional<Dictionary> customData; // 'customData'
|
||||
nonstd::optional<Dictionary> sdrMetadata; // 'sdrMetadata'
|
||||
nonstd::optional<Dictionary> clips; // 'clips'
|
||||
Dictionary meta; // other metadata values
|
||||
// ...
|
||||
};
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Using Dictionary in Attribute Metadata
|
||||
**File:** `/mnt/nvme02/work/tinyusdz-repo/crate-writer-2025/src/prim-types.hh` (lines 1100-1110)
|
||||
|
||||
```cpp
|
||||
struct AttrMetas {
|
||||
nonstd::optional<Dictionary> customData; // 'customData'
|
||||
nonstd::optional<Dictionary> sdrMetadata; // 'sdrMetadata'
|
||||
std::map<std::string, MetaVariable> meta; // other metadata
|
||||
};
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Creating Dictionary Entries
|
||||
```cpp
|
||||
Dictionary customData;
|
||||
|
||||
// Add a float value
|
||||
customData["myFloat"] = MetaVariable(3.14f);
|
||||
|
||||
// Add a string value
|
||||
customData["myString"] = MetaVariable("hello");
|
||||
|
||||
// Add an int value
|
||||
customData["myInt"] = MetaVariable(42);
|
||||
|
||||
// Add with explicit names
|
||||
customData.insert({"key1", MetaVariable("key1", value::token("myToken"))});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||

## 8. Attribute Class
|
||||
|
||||
### Basic Attribute Construction
|
||||
**File:** `/mnt/nvme02/work/tinyusdz-repo/crate-writer-2025/src/prim-types.hh` (lines 2152-2247)
|
||||
|
||||
```cpp
|
||||
// Create attribute from typed value
|
||||
template <typename T>
|
||||
Attribute(const T &v, bool varying = true) {
|
||||
set_value(v);
|
||||
variability() = varying ? Variability::Varying : Variability::Uniform;
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// Create uniform attribute
|
||||
template <typename T>
|
||||
static Attribute Uniform(const T &v) {
|
||||
Attribute attr;
|
||||
attr.set_value(v);
|
||||
attr.variability() = Variability::Uniform;
|
||||
return attr;
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// Set value
|
||||
template <typename T>
|
||||
void set_value(const T &v) {
|
||||
if (_type_name.empty()) {
|
||||
_type_name = value::TypeTraits<T>::type_name();
|
||||
}
|
||||
_var.set_value(v);
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Attribute Variability
|
||||
```cpp
|
||||
enum class Variability {
|
||||
Varying, // Changes per frame (default)
|
||||
Uniform, // Constant over time
|
||||
Config, // Configuration value
|
||||
Invalid
|
||||
};
|
||||
```
|
||||

|
||||
## 9. Practical Pattern Summary
|
||||
|
||||
### Pattern 1: Create a Simple ListOp (Explicit)
|
||||
```cpp
|
||||
ListOp<value::token> my_listop;
|
||||
my_listop.ClearAndMakeExplicit();
|
||||
std::vector<value::token> items = {value::token("item1"), value::token("item2")};
|
||||
my_listop.SetExplicitItems(items);
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Pattern 2: Create a ListOp (Append Operation)
|
||||
```cpp
|
||||
ListOp<value::token> my_listop;
|
||||
std::vector<value::token> to_append = {value::token("new_item")};
|
||||
my_listop.SetAppendedItems(to_append);
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Pattern 3: Create a Dictionary Attribute
|
||||
```cpp
|
||||
Dictionary custom_data;
|
||||
custom_data["version"] = MetaVariable("version", 1);
|
||||
custom_data["author"] = MetaVariable("author", value::token("john"));
|
||||
custom_data["metadata"] = MetaVariable("metadata", 3.14f);
|
||||
|
||||
nonstd::optional<Dictionary> opt_dict = custom_data;
|
||||
prim_metas.customData = opt_dict;
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Pattern 4: Using ListOp in Composition (References)
|
||||
```cpp
|
||||
std::vector<Reference> refs = {
|
||||
Reference{value::AssetPath("ref.usd"), Path("/ref_prim"), LayerOffset()}
|
||||
};
|
||||
|
||||
ListOp<Reference> ref_op;
|
||||
// Using prepend for composition
|
||||
ref_op.SetPrependedItems(refs);
|
||||
|
||||
// Or explicit (reset) for complete specification
|
||||
ref_op.ClearAndMakeExplicit();
|
||||
ref_op.SetExplicitItems(refs);
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## 10. Key Files for Reference
|
||||
|
||||
1. **`src/prim-types.hh`** (primary) - ListOp, ListEditQual, Dictionary, MetaVariable definitions
|
||||
2. **`src/value-types.hh`** - Value type definitions and type traits
|
||||
3. **`src/crate-format.hh`** - Crate binary format serialization support
|
||||
4. **`src/stage-converter.cc`** - Real-world examples of ListOp creation
|
||||
5. **`src/crate-reader.cc`** - Reading ListOp structures from crate files
|
||||
6. **`src/crate-writer.cc`** - Writing ListOp structures to crate files
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 11. Important Notes
|
||||
|
||||
### ListOp vs Attribute Constraints
|
||||
- **Attributes cannot have ListEdit qualifiers** - Attributes use explicit values only
|
||||
- **Composition fields (references, payloads, etc.) use ListOp with qualifiers**
|
||||
- Only composition-related fields support Prepend, Append, Add, Delete operations
|
||||
|
||||
### Dictionary Support
|
||||
- Dictionaries store `MetaVariable` instances (type-erased containers)
|
||||
- Primarily used for metadata and customData fields
|
||||
- Support optional initialization with `nonstd::optional<Dictionary>`
|
||||
|
||||
### Type Safety
|
||||
- ListOp is a template class supporting only specific types (see section 3)
|
||||
- MetaVariable uses type-erased Value container internally
|
||||
- Type checking happens at runtime for dictionary/metadata operations
|
||||
|
||||
### Performance Considerations
|
||||
- ordered_dict in prim-types preserves insertion order for metadata
|
||||
- Dictionary is a std::map, so keys are sorted alphabetically
|
||||
- ListOp maintains separate vectors for different operation types (explicit, add, append, etc.)
