Lighting::GlobalLightEntity Class Reference
#include <globallightentity.h>
Detailed Description
Implements a global directional light intended for outdoor areas or as the basis for indoor rendering. Besides the primary directional light component, a global light also usually provides some sort of ambient component for areas in shadow. There should only be one GlobalLight active during rendering a frame. The primary light is directed along the negative z-axis of the light's transform matrix. Scaling and position has no effect on the global light.(C) 2007 Radon Labs GmbH

Member Function Documentation
| Ptr< GraphicsEntity > Graphics::GraphicsEntity::CreateClone | ( | ) | const [protected, virtual, inherited] |
create a clone of the entity
This method is called to create an exact clone of this graphics entity. The new entity will not be attached to a stage.
| void Graphics::GraphicsEntity::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 Graphics::ActorEntity, and Graphics::ModelEntity.
| void Graphics::GraphicsEntity::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 Graphics::ActorEntity, Graphics::CameraEntity, and Graphics::ModelEntity.
| void Graphics::GraphicsEntity::OnAttachToStage | ( | const Ptr< Stage > & | 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 Graphics::GraphicsEntity::OnRemoveFromStage | ( | ) | [protected, virtual, inherited] |
called when removed from Stage
This method is called when the graphics entity is removed from a stage.
| void Graphics::GraphicsEntity::OnRemoveFromCell | ( | ) | [protected, virtual, inherited] |
called when removed from a Cell
Called when the graphics entity is removed from a cell inside a stage.
| void Graphics::GraphicsEntity::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.
| void Graphics::GraphicsEntity::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.
| void Graphics::GraphicsEntity::OnUpdate | ( | ) | [protected, virtual, inherited] |
called to update the entity before rendering
This method is called on the graphics entity to update itself, for instance to implement hierarchy animation or particle updates.
Reimplemented in Graphics::ActorEntity, and Graphics::ModelEntity.
| void Graphics::GraphicsEntity::OnRender | ( | ) | [protected, virtual, inherited] |
called before the entity is rendered
This method is called on the graphics entity to render itself. This method will only be called if the entity is visible through the camera of the currently rendered View.
| void Graphics::GraphicsEntity::OnRenderDebug | ( | ) | [protected, virtual, inherited] |
called to render a debug visualization of the entity
This method is called on the graphics entity to render a debug visualization of itself.
Reimplemented in Graphics::ModelEntity.
| void Graphics::GraphicsEntity::UpdatePositionInCellTree | ( | ) | [protected, inherited] |
update our position in the cell hierarchy
This method is called from OnUpdate() when either the entity's transformation or bounding box has changed. It checks if the entity still fits into its current cell, and if not, moves the entity in a new cell.
| 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.
