Detailed Description

I3DShMaster provides a generic interface to access object that can be instanced. It is implemented by Master Objects, Groups, Shaders and Sounds.

Member Function Documentation

virtual boolean MCCOMAPI I3DShMaster::GetAlwaysCloneOnModify (   )  [pure virtual]
 

Returns true if a new copy of the Master should be created each time it is modified.

virtual MCCOMErr MCCOMAPI I3DShMaster::GetIcon (  const uint32  size,
TMCPixelBucket **  outBucket,
boolean  withAlphaChannel
)  [pure virtual]
 

Returns an icon that can be used to display a preview of the object. This method is asynchronous.

Parameters:
size The size in pixel of the icon.
outBucket A pointer to a pixel bucket that contains the image.
withAlphaChannel True if the pixel buckets contains alpha channel.

virtual MCCOMErr MCCOMAPI I3DShMaster::GetIconChangeChannel (  IChangeChannel **  channel  )  [pure virtual]
 

Returns the a change channel that can be used to be notified when an icon has been calculated (see GetIcon()).

Parameters:
channel A pointer to the change channel.

virtual MCCOMErr MCCOMAPI I3DShMaster::GetIconNow (  const uint32  size,
TMCPixelBucket **  outBucket,
boolean  withAlphaChannel
)  [pure virtual]
 

Same as GetIcon() but this method will block until the icon has been calculated.

Parameters:
size The size in pixel of the icon.
outBucket A pointer to a pixel bucket that contains the image.
withAlphaChannel True if the pixel buckets contains alpha channel.

virtual void MCCOMAPI I3DShMaster::GetInstanceArray (  TMCCountedPtrArray< I3DShTreeElement > &  instances  )  [pure virtual]
 

Returns an array of all the instances that points to that class:

  • For a Master Object it is the instances that use its geometry.
  • For a Master Shader it is the instances that use it as a shader.

Parameters:
instances An array of instances.

virtual uint32 MCCOMAPI I3DShMaster::GetInstancesCount (   )  [pure virtual]
 

Returns the number of instances of this master in the scene.

virtual MCCOMErr MCCOMAPI I3DShMaster::GetName (  TMCString &  name  )  [pure virtual]
 

Returns the name of the Master.

Parameters:
name The name of the Master.

virtual MCCOMErr MCCOMAPI I3DShMaster::GetPreview (  const uint32  width,
const uint32  height,
TMCPixelBucket **  outBucket,
boolean  withAlphaChannel
)  [pure virtual]
 

Returns a preview of the master. This method is asynchronous.

Parameters:
width The width of the preview.
height The height of the preview.
outBucket A pointer to a pixel bucket that contains the preview.
withAlphaChannel True if the pixel buckets contains alpha channel.

virtual MCCOMErr MCCOMAPI I3DShMaster::GetPreviewNow (  const uint32  width,
const uint32  height,
TMCPixelBucket **  outBucket,
boolean  withAlphaChannel
)  [pure virtual]
 

Same as GetPreview() except that it will block until the preview has been calculated.

Parameters:
width The width of the preview.
height The height of the preview.
outBucket A pointer to a pixel bucket that contains the preview.
withAlphaChannel True if the pixel buckets contains alpha channel.

virtual const TMCString* MCCOMAPI I3DShMaster::GetSourceFile (   )  const [pure virtual]
 

Gets the file full pathname of the object, if any. Used only if the object belongs to the Browser.

Returns:
NULL if the object does not belong to the Browser.

virtual void MCCOMAPI I3DShMaster::RegisterListener (  I3DMasterListener *  listener  )  [pure virtual]
 

Registers a listener.

virtual MCCOMErr MCCOMAPI I3DShMaster::SetName (  const TMCString &  name  )  [pure virtual]
 

Sets the name of a master. Note that you should not call this method once the master is inserted in a scene because it does not garantee the unicity of the name.

If you want to change the name of a Master Object once it is inserted in a scene, you should call: I3DShScene::Rename3DObject().

If you want to change the name of a Master Shader once it is inserted in a scene, you should call I3DShScene::RenameMasterShader().

Parameters:
name The new name of the master.

virtual MCCOMErr MCCOMAPI I3DShMaster::SetSourceFile (  const TMCString &  sourceFile  )  [pure virtual]
 

Sets the file full pathname of the object, if any. Used only if the object belongs to the Browser.

Parameters:
sourceFile The full pathname.

virtual void MCCOMAPI I3DShMaster::UnregisterListener (  I3DMasterListener *  listener  )  [pure virtual]
 

Unregister a listener.
