[Merged by Bors] - Bevy derives handling generics in impl definitions. #2044

Fixes #2037 (and then some)

Problem:

  • TypeUuid, RenderResource, and Bytes derive macros did not properly handle generic structs.

Solution:

  • Rework the derive macro implementations to handle the generics.

A few comments to take into account!

  1. There are a few more derive marcos that do not handle generics (e.g. RenderResources (plural)), which should probably get included in this PR.

  2. There are currently no tests for the specific scenarios that would have prevented Derives ignore const generics #2037 . I would propose adding some integration testing inside tests/ for the derive macros to ensure the use cases are tested.

Could you edit the PR description to change Addresses #2037 Fixes #2037, so that the issue is linked and automatically closed once this is merged.

I would like to see this; I think it's a sensible place to put them.

I dig it!

I personally think the tests should live in the crates where the macros are actually consumed/exported (ex: RenderResources should be tested in bevy_render) and be tested wherever their trait is defined.

bevy_derive really only exists because Rust forces a separate crate for proc macros and I don't want duplicate crates for everything that needs a proc macro (ex: bevy_render_derive, bevy_asset_derive, etc). In general we should just pretend that proc macros originate from their "real" crates (and discourage users from pulling in bevy_derive directly).

Tests are added for RenderResource, RenderResources, and TypeUuid 😸

I might be missing something here, but doesn't this mean that different instantiations of a generic type deriving TypeUuid will have the same UUID? Is that not a problem if each TypeUuid is supposed to uniquely identify a type?

I'd love tools for making generics and reflection work better together, of course. Maybe add a generic bound to the impl that the child is TypeUuid and merge them? That could hopefully be const (PRNG merging UUIDs), but worst case it could be at runtime with TypeUuidDynamic. I'm currently making a different newtype struct for each collection that has to be TypeUuid, though I might be doing something wrong - I hope there's a better way.

Hmm yeah supporting generics on TypeUuid derives does seem wrong. I think we should revert that change.

This reverts some of the changes made in #2044 as supporting generics for a `#[derive(TypeUuid)]` should not work as each generic instantiation would have the same uuid.

@SafariMonkey this was fixed in #2204, that you for finding this bug!

Support for deriving `TypeUuid` for types with generics was initially added in #2044 but later reverted #2204 because it lead to `MyStruct<A>` and `MyStruct<B>` having the same type uuid.

This PR fixes this by generating code like
```rust
#[derive(TypeUuid)]
#[uuid = "69b09733-a21a-4dab-a444-d472986bd672"]
struct Type<T>(T);

impl<T: TypeUuid> TypeUuid for Type<T> {
  const TYPE_UUID: TypeUuid = generate_compound_uuid(Uuid::from_bytes([/* 69b0 uuid */]), T::TYPE_UUID);
}
```

where `generate_compound_uuid` will XOR the non-metadata bits of the two UUIDs.
