Detailed Description

Implements a local spot light. The spot light's cone is computed from the transformation matrix of the light entity. The spot light cone will point along -z, and the cone's angle will be defined by the length of x and y component at the end of the z component.

Member Function Documentation

void Lighting::InternalPointLightEntity::HandleMessage ( const Ptr< Messaging::Message > &  msg  )  [virtual]

handle a message

Handle a message, override this method accordingly in subclasses!

Reimplemented from Lighting::InternalAbstractLightEntity.

void Lighting::InternalAbstractLightEntity::OnResolveVisibility (  )  [protected, virtual, inherited]

called from internalview

This method is called whenever the the internalview comes to its Render method. Add light entities to the LightServer or to the ShadowServer.

Reimplemented from InternalGraphics::InternalGraphicsEntity.

void InternalGraphics::InternalGraphicsEntity::AddDeferredMessage ( const Ptr< Messaging::Message > &  msg  )  [inherited]

add a message for deferred handling once the object becomes valid

Message handlers may decide to defer message handling until the object has become valid.

void InternalGraphics::InternalGraphicsEntity::OnActivate (  )  [protected, virtual, inherited]

called when entity is created

Activate the entity. This method is called when the entity is created an attached to the graphics server. During OnActivate() the entity should perform any one-time initializations.

Reimplemented in InternalGraphics::InternalModelEntity.

void InternalGraphics::InternalGraphicsEntity::OnDeactivate (  )  [protected, virtual, inherited]

called before entity is destroyed

Deactivate the entity, this method is called when the entity is removed from the graphics server. Any initialization done in OnActivate() should be undone here.

Reimplemented in InternalGraphics::InternalCameraEntity, and InternalGraphics::InternalModelEntity.

void InternalGraphics::InternalGraphicsEntity::OnAttachToStage ( const Ptr< InternalStage > &  s  )  [protected, virtual, inherited]

called when attached to Stage

This method is called when the graphics entity is attached to a stage. An entity may only be attached to one stage at any time, but can be attached to different stages during its lifetime. Attachging an entity to a stage may be relatively slow because the entity must be inserted into the cell hierarchy.

void InternalGraphics::InternalGraphicsEntity::OnRemoveFromStage (  )  [protected, virtual, inherited]

called when removed from Stage

This method is called when the graphics entity is removed from a stage.

void InternalGraphics::InternalGraphicsEntity::OnSetupSharedData (  )  [protected, virtual, inherited]

called to setup the client-portion of the shared data object

This method is called from OnActivate() to setup the shared data object of the entity. The method must call the ClientSetup() method on the sharedData object with the same template type as the main-thread side entity.

Reimplemented in InternalGraphics::InternalModelEntity.

void InternalGraphics::InternalGraphicsEntity::OnDiscardSharedData (  )  [protected, virtual, inherited]

called to discard the client-portion of the shared data object

Called from OnDeactivate() to discard the shared data object of the entity from the client side.

Reimplemented in InternalGraphics::InternalModelEntity.

void InternalGraphics::InternalGraphicsEntity::OnResetSharedData (  )  [protected, virtual, inherited]

called per frame to reset the shared data object

This method is called once per frame before OnCullBefore() to initialize the shared data object with suitable data (which may be overwritten with uptodate-data later in the frame). This is necessary because the SharedData object is double buffered, and thus if an update if missed for one frame invalid data from the previous frame may "leak" into the next frame.

Reimplemented in InternalGraphics::InternalModelEntity.

void InternalGraphics::InternalGraphicsEntity::OnShow (  )  [protected, virtual, inherited]

called when the entity becomes visible

This method is called from the SetVisible() method when the entity changes from invisible to visible state.

Reimplemented in InternalGraphics::InternalModelEntity.

void InternalGraphics::InternalGraphicsEntity::OnHide (  )  [protected, virtual, inherited]

called when the entity becomes invisible

This method is called from the SetVisible() method when the entity changes from visible to invisible state.

Reimplemented in InternalGraphics::InternalModelEntity.

void InternalGraphics::InternalGraphicsEntity::OnCullBefore ( Timing::Time  time_,
Timing::Time  timeFactor_,
IndexT  frameIndex 
) [protected, virtual, inherited]

called before culling on each(!) graphics entity (visible or not!)

This method is called at the beginning of a frame before culling happens on EVERY entity.

Reimplemented in InternalGraphics::InternalModelEntity.

void InternalGraphics::InternalGraphicsEntity::OnNotifyCullingVisible ( const Ptr< InternalGraphicsEntity > &  observer,
IndexT  frameIndex 
) [protected, virtual, inherited]

called when the entity has been found visible during culling, may be called several times per frame!

This method is called during visibility linking when an observed entity is found to be visible by an observer (a camera or a light entity). NOTE that this method will be called several times per frame, so it may be a good idea to use the graphics server's frame counter to protect expensive code from multiple execution.

Reimplemented in InternalGraphics::InternalModelEntity.

void InternalGraphics::InternalGraphicsEntity::OnRenderBefore ( IndexT  frameIndex  )  [protected, virtual, inherited]

called right before rendering

This method is called on the entity from InternalView::Render() once per frame for every visible entity.

Reimplemented in InternalGraphics::InternalModelEntity.

void InternalGraphics::InternalGraphicsEntity::HandleDeferredMessages (  )  [protected, inherited]

handle deferred messages (called by subclasses once resources are loaded)

This method is called once when an object with deferred validation (e.g. ModelEntities) become valid (usually after their resources have finished loading). Any deferred messages will be processed here.

int Core::RefCounted::GetRefCount (  )  const [inline, inherited]

get the current refcount

Return the current refcount of the object.

void Core::RefCounted::AddRef (  )  [inline, inherited]

increment refcount by one

Increment the refcount of the object.

void Core::RefCounted::Release (  )  [inline, inherited]

decrement refcount and destroy object if refcount is zero

Decrement the refcount and destroy object if refcount is zero.

const Util::String & Core::RefCounted::GetClassName (  )  const [inline, inherited]

get the class name

Get the class name of the object.

Util::FourCC Core::RefCounted::GetClassFourCC (  )  const [inline, inherited]

get the class FourCC code

Get the class FourCC of the object.

void Core::RefCounted::DumpRefCountingLeaks (  )  [static, inherited]

dump refcounting leaks, call at end of application (NEBULA3_DEBUG builds only!)

This method should be called as the very last before an application exits.
