[Bf-committers] Socket storage and backwards compatibility

[Jeroen Bakker]

Hi All,

We have some issues with the new image node. Users are creating files 
with trunk and read them using tiles. And it crashes :)

for example:
  * 
http://projects.blender.org/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=31329&group_id=9&atid=524
  * 
http://projects.blender.org/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=31300&group_id=9&atid=524
  * 
http://projects.blender.org/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=31301&group_id=9&atid=524

These 3 bugs are related to the fact that the new image node, using 
socket storage in stead of the index of the socket. This issue can be 
solved after merging. Just as the new file output node.

Question remains;
What are the ideas about backwards compatibility of the image node/file 
output node?

Greetings,
Jeroen & Monique
