Member Function Documentation

void Input::InputHandler::BeginCapture (  )  [virtual, inherited]

capture input to this event handler

Begin capturing input to this input handler. This method must be overriden in a subclass, the derived method must call ObtainMouseCapture(), ObtainKeyboardCapture(), or both, depending on what type input events you want to capture. An input handler which captures input gets all input events of the given type exclusively.

Reimplemented in Base::KeyboardBase, and Base::MouseBase.

void Input::InputHandler::EndCapture (  )  [virtual, inherited]

end input capturing to this event handler

End capturing input to this input handler. Override this method in a subclass and release the captures obtained in BeginCapture().

Reimplemented in Base::KeyboardBase, and Base::MouseBase.

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.
