Constructor & Destructor Documentation

Ogre::ParticleSystemRenderer::ParticleSystemRenderer ( )

Constructor.

Definition at line 43 of file OgreParticleSystemRenderer.h.

Destructor.

Definition at line 45 of file OgreParticleSystemRenderer.h.

Member Function Documentation

virtual ParticleVisualData* Ogre::ParticleSystemRenderer::_createVisualData ( void ) [virtual]

Create a new ParticleVisualData instance for attachment to a particle.

Remarks:
If this renderer needs additional data in each particle, then this should be held in an instance of a subclass of ParticleVisualData, and this method should be overridden to return a new instance of it. The default behaviour is to return null.

Definition at line 79 of file OgreParticleSystemRenderer.h.

virtual void Ogre::ParticleSystemRenderer::_destroyVisualData ( ParticleVisualData * vis ) [virtual]

Destroy a ParticleVisualData instance.

Remarks:
If this renderer needs additional data in each particle, then this should be held in an instance of a subclass of ParticleVisualData, and this method should be overridden to destroy an instance of it. The default behaviour is to do nothing.

Definition at line 87 of file OgreParticleSystemRenderer.h.

virtual SortMode Ogre::ParticleSystemRenderer::_getSortMode ( void ) const [pure virtual]

Gets the desired particles sort mode of this renderer.

Implemented in Ogre::BillboardParticleRenderer.

virtual void Ogre::ParticleSystemRenderer::_notifyAttached ( Node * parent,

bool isTagPoint = false

) [pure virtual]

Delegated to by ParticleSystem::_notifyAttached.

Implemented in Ogre::BillboardParticleRenderer.

virtual void Ogre::ParticleSystemRenderer::_notifyCurrentCamera ( Camera * cam ) [pure virtual]

Delegated to by ParticleSystem::_notifyCurrentCamera.

Implemented in Ogre::BillboardParticleRenderer.

virtual void Ogre::ParticleSystemRenderer::_notifyDefaultDimensions ( Real width,

Real height

) [pure virtual]

Tells the renderer that the particle default size has changed.

Implemented in Ogre::BillboardParticleRenderer.

virtual void Ogre::ParticleSystemRenderer::_notifyParticleQuota ( size_t quota ) [pure virtual]

Tells the renderer that the particle quota has changed.

Implemented in Ogre::BillboardParticleRenderer.

virtual void Ogre::ParticleSystemRenderer::_notifyParticleResized ( void ) [virtual]

Optional callback notified when particles are resized individually.

Reimplemented in Ogre::BillboardParticleRenderer.
Definition at line 67 of file OgreParticleSystemRenderer.h.

virtual void Ogre::ParticleSystemRenderer::_notifyParticleRotated ( void ) [virtual]

Optional callback notified when particles are rotated.

Reimplemented in Ogre::BillboardParticleRenderer.
Definition at line 65 of file OgreParticleSystemRenderer.h.

virtual void Ogre::ParticleSystemRenderer::_setMaterial ( MaterialPtr & mat ) [pure virtual]

Sets the material this renderer must use; called by ParticleSystem.

Implemented in Ogre::BillboardParticleRenderer.

virtual void Ogre::ParticleSystemRenderer::_updateRenderQueue ( RenderQueue * queue,

std::list< Particle * > & currentParticles,

bool cullIndividually

) [pure virtual]

Delegated to by ParticleSystem::_updateRenderQueue.

Remarks:
The subclass must update the render queue using whichever Renderable instance(s) it wishes.

Implemented in Ogre::BillboardParticleRenderer.

void Ogre::StringInterface::cleanupDictionary ( ) [static, inherited]

Cleans up the static 'msDictionary' required to reset Ogre, otherwise the containers are left with invalid pointers, which will lead to a crash as soon as one of the ResourceManager implementers (e.g.
MaterialManager) initializes.

virtual void Ogre::StringInterface::copyParametersTo ( StringInterface * dest ) const [virtual, inherited]

Method for copying this object's parameters to another object.

Remarks:
This method takes the values of all the object's parameters and tries to set the same values on the destination object. This provides a completely type independent way to copy parameters to other objects. Note that because of the String manipulation involved, this should not be regarded as an efficient process and should be saved for times outside of the rendering loop.

Any unrecognised parameters will be ignored as with setParameter method.

Parameters:

dest Pointer to object to have it's parameters set the same as this object.

Definition at line 296 of file OgreStringInterface.h.
References Ogre::ParamDictionary::mParamDefs, and Ogre::StringInterface::setParameter().

bool Ogre::StringInterface::createParamDictionary ( const String & className ) [protected, inherited]

Internal method for creating a parameter dictionary for the class, if it does not already exist.

Remarks:
This method will check to see if a parameter dictionary exist for this class yet, and if not will create one. NB you must supply the name of the class (RTTI is not used or performance).

Parameters:

className the name of the class using the dictionary

Returns:
true if a new dictionary was created, false if it was already there

Definition at line 172 of file OgreStringInterface.h.
References Ogre::String.

const ParamDictionary* Ogre::StringInterface::getParamDictionary ( void ) const [inherited]

Definition at line 209 of file OgreStringInterface.h.

ParamDictionary* Ogre::StringInterface::getParamDictionary ( void ) [inherited]

Retrieves the parameter dictionary for this class.

Remarks:
Only valid to call this after createParamDictionary.

Returns:
Pointer to ParamDictionary shared by all instances of this class which you can add parameters to, retrieve parameters etc.

Definition at line 196 of file OgreStringInterface.h.

virtual String Ogre::StringInterface::getParameter ( const String & name ) const [virtual, inherited]

Generic parameter retrieval method.

Remarks:
Call this method with the name of a parameter to retrieve a string-format value of the parameter in question. If in doubt, check the parameter definition in the list returned from getParameters for the type of this parameter. If you like you can use StringConverter to convert this string back into a native type.

Parameters:

name The name of the parameter to get

Returns:
String value of parameter, blank if not found

Definition at line 265 of file OgreStringInterface.h.
References Ogre::ParamCommand::doGet(), Ogre::ParamDictionary::getParamCommand(), and Ogre::String.

const ParameterList& Ogre::StringInterface::getParameters ( void ) const [inherited]

Retrieves a list of parameters valid for this object.

Returns:
A reference to a static list of ParameterDef objects.

virtual const String& Ogre::ParticleSystemRenderer::getType ( void ) const [pure virtual]

Gets the type of this renderer - must be implemented by subclasses.

Implemented in Ogre::BillboardParticleRenderer.

virtual void Ogre::ParticleSystemRenderer::setKeepParticlesInLocalSpace ( bool keepLocal ) [pure virtual]

Setting carried over from ParticleSystem.

Implemented in Ogre::BillboardParticleRenderer.

virtual bool Ogre::StringInterface::setParameter ( const String & name,

const String & value

) [virtual, inherited]

Generic parameter setting method.

Remarks:
Call this method with the name of a parameter and a string version of the value to set. The implementor will convert the string to a native type internally. If in doubt, check the parameter definition in the list returned from StringInterface::getParameters.

Parameters:

name The name of the parameter to set

value String value. Must be in the right format for the type specified in the parameter definition. See the StringConverter class for more information.

Returns:
true if set was successful, false otherwise (NB no exceptions thrown - tolerant method)

Referenced by Ogre::StringInterface::copyParametersTo().

virtual void Ogre::StringInterface::setParameterList ( const NameValuePairList & paramList ) [virtual, inherited]

Generic multiple parameter setting method.

Remarks:
Call this method with a list of name / value pairs to set. The implementor will convert the string to a native type internally. If in doubt, check the parameter definition in the list returned from StringInterface::getParameters.

Parameters:

paramList Name/value pair list

virtual void Ogre::ParticleSystemRenderer::setRenderQueueGroup ( uint8 queueID ) [pure virtual]

Sets which render queue group this renderer should target with it's output.

Implemented in Ogre::BillboardParticleRenderer.
