Detailed Description

Applied to a GeomNode to cause a visible bounding volume to be drawn for this node.

This is generally used only during development to help identify bounding volume issues.


Member Function Documentation

int compareTo ( RenderEffect const  other) [inherited]

Provides an arbitrary ordering among all unique RenderEffects, so we can store the essentially different ones in a big set and throw away the rest.

This method is not needed outside of the RenderEffect class because all equivalent RenderEffect objects are guaranteed to share the same pointer; thus, a pointer comparison is always sufficient.

static TypedWritableReferenceCount decodeFromBamStream ( string  data,
BamReader  reader 
) [static, inherited]

Reads the string created by a previous call to encode_to_bam_stream(), and extracts and returns the single object on that string.

Returns NULL on error.

This method is intended to replace decode_raw_from_bam_stream() when you know the stream in question returns an object of type TypedWritableReferenceCount, allowing for easier reference count management. Note that the caller is still responsible for maintaining the reference count on the return value.

static TypedWritableReferenceCount decodeFromBamStream ( string  data) [static, inherited]

Reads the string created by a previous call to encode_to_bam_stream(), and extracts and returns the single object on that string.

Returns NULL on error.

This method is intended to replace decode_raw_from_bam_stream() when you know the stream in question returns an object of type TypedWritableReferenceCount, allowing for easier reference count management. Note that the caller is still responsible for maintaining the reference count on the return value.

string encodeToBamStream ( ) [inherited]

Converts the TypedWritable object into a single stream of data using a BamWriter, and returns that data as a string string.

Returns empty string on failure.

This is a convenience method particularly useful for cases when you are only serializing a single object. If you have many objects to process, it is more efficient to use the same BamWriter to serialize all of them together.

bool encodeToBamStream ( basic_stringchar  data,
BamWriter  writer 
) [inherited]

Converts the TypedWritable object into a single stream of data using a BamWriter, and stores that data in the indicated string.

Returns true on success, false on failure.

This is a convenience method particularly useful for cases when you are only serializing a single object. If you have many objects to process, it is more efficient to use the same BamWriter to serialize all of them together.

bool encodeToBamStream ( basic_stringchar  data) [inherited]

Converts the TypedWritable object into a single stream of data using a BamWriter, and stores that data in the indicated string.

Returns true on success, false on failure.

This is a convenience method particularly useful for cases when you are only serializing a single object. If you have many objects to process, it is more efficient to use the same BamWriter to serialize all of them together.

UpdateSeq getBamModified ( ) [inherited]

Returns the current bam_modified counter.

This counter is normally incremented automatically whenever the object is modified.

static TypeHandle getClassType ( ) [static]

Reimplemented from RenderEffect.

static int getNumEffects ( ) [static, inherited]

Returns the total number of unique RenderEffect objects allocated in the world.

This will go up and down during normal operations.

int getRefCount ( ) [inherited]

Returns the current reference count.

bool getTight ( )

Returns true if the "tight" flag was set, meaning the effect should compute and draw the tight bounding-box of the node's vertices every frame.

TypeHandle getType ( ) [inherited]

Reimplemented in AnimChannelBase.

int getTypeIndex ( ) [inherited]

Returns the internal index number associated with this object's TypeHandle, a unique number for each different type.

This is equivalent to get_type().get_index().

bool isExactType ( TypeHandle  handle) [inherited]

Returns true if the current object is the indicated type exactly.

bool isOfType ( TypeHandle  handle) [inherited]

Returns true if the current object is or derives from the indicated type.

static listEffects ( ostream  out) [static, inherited]

Lists all of the RenderEffects in the cache to the output stream, one per line.

This can be quite a lot of output if the cache is large, so be prepared.

static RenderEffect const make ( ) [static]

Constructs a new ShowBoundsEffect object.

static RenderEffect const make ( bool  tight) [static]

Constructs a new ShowBoundsEffect object.

markBamModified ( ) [inherited]

Increments the bam_modified counter, so that this object will be invalidated and retransmitted on any open bam streams.

This should normally not need to be called by user code; it should be called internally when the object has been changed in a way that legitimately requires its retransmission to any connected clients.

output ( ostream  out) [inherited]
PyObject reduce ( PyObject  self) [inherited]

This special Python method is implement to provide support for the pickle module.

This hooks into the native pickle and cPickle modules, but it cannot properly handle self-referential BAM objects.

PyObject reducePersist ( PyObject  self,
PyObject  pickler 
) [inherited]

This special Python method is implement to provide support for the pickle module.

This is similar to __reduce__, but it provides additional support for the missing persistent-state object needed to properly support self-referential BAM objects written to the pickle stream. This hooks into the pickle and cPickle modules implemented in direct/src/stdpy.

ref ( ) [inherited]

Explicitly increments the reference count.

User code should avoid using ref() and unref() directly, which can result in missed reference counts. Instead, let a PointerTo object manage the reference counting automatically.

This function is const, even though it changes the object, because generally fiddling with an object's reference count isn't considered part of fiddling with the object. An object might be const in other ways, but we still need to accurately count the number of references to it.

bool testRefCountIntegrity ( ) [inherited]

Does some easy checks to make sure that the reference count isn't completely bogus.

Returns true if ok, false otherwise.

Reimplemented in NodeReferenceCount, CachedTypedWritableReferenceCount, and NodeCachedReferenceCount.

bool testRefCountNonzero ( ) [inherited]

Does some easy checks to make sure that the reference count isn't zero, or completely bogus.

Returns true if ok, false otherwise.

bool unref ( ) [inherited]

Explicitly decrements the reference count.

Note that the object will not be implicitly deleted by unref() simply because the reference count drops to zero. (Having a member function delete itself is problematic.) However, see the helper function unref_delete().

User code should avoid using ref() and unref() directly, which can result in missed reference counts. Instead, let a PointerTo object manage the reference counting automatically.

This function is const, even though it changes the object, because generally fiddling with an object's reference count isn't considered part of fiddling with the object. An object might be const in other ways, but we still need to accurately count the number of references to it.

The return value is true if the new reference count is nonzero, false if it is zero.

Reimplemented in GeomVertexArrayFormat, and GeomVertexFormat.

static bool validateEffects ( ) [static, inherited]

Ensures that the cache is still stored in sorted order.

Returns true if so, false if there is a problem (which implies someone has modified one of the supposedly-const RenderEffect objects).
