class | WindowRenderer |
This class is the main interface to controlling the render process.
There is typically only one GraphicsEngine in an application, and it synchronizes rendering to all all of the active windows; although it is possible to have multiple GraphicsEngine objects if multiple synchronicity groups are required.
The GraphicsEngine is responsible for managing the various cull and draw threads. The application simply calls engine->render_frame() and considers it done.

GraphicsEngine::GraphicsEngine | ( | Pipeline * | pipeline = NULL | ) |
Creates a new GraphicsEngine object.
The Pipeline is normally left to default to NULL, which indicates the global render pipeline, but it may be any Pipeline you choose.

bool GraphicsEngine::extract_texture_data | ( | Texture * | tex, |
GraphicsStateGuardian * | gsg | ||
) |
Asks the indicated GraphicsStateGuardian to retrieve the texture memory image of the indicated texture and store it in the texture's ram_image field.
The image can then be written to disk via Texture::write(), or otherwise manipulated on the CPU.
This is useful for retrieving the contents of a texture that has been somehow generated on the graphics card, instead of having been loaded the normal way via Texture::read() or Texture::load(). It is particularly useful for getting the data associated with a compressed texture image.
Since this requires a round-trip to the draw thread, it may require waiting for the current thread to finish rendering if it is called in a multithreaded environment. However, you can call this several consecutive times on different textures for little additional cost.
If the texture has not yet been loaded to the GSG in question, it will be loaded immediately.
The return value is true if the operation is successful, false otherwise.

const string & | name, | ||

) | [inline] |
Syntactic shorthand for make_output.
This is the preferred way to create an offscreen buffer, when you already have an onscreen window or another buffer to start with. For the first parameter, pass an existing GraphicsOutput object, e.g. the main window; this allows the buffer to adapt itself to that window's framebuffer properties, and allows maximum sharing of resources.

const string & | name, | ||

) | [inline] |
Syntactic shorthand for make_output.
This flavor accepts a GSG rather than a GraphicsOutput as the first parameter, which is too limiting and disallows the possibility of creating a ParasiteBuffer if the user's graphics hardware prefers that. It also attempts to request specific framebuffer properties and may therefore do a poorer job of sharing the GSG between the old buffer and the new.
For these reasons, this variant is a poor choice unless you are creating an offscreen buffer for the first time, without an onscreen window already in existence. If you already have an onscreen window, you should use the other flavor of make_buffer() instead, which accepts a GraphicsOutput as the first parameter.

) |
Creates a new window (or buffer) and returns it.
The GraphicsEngine becomes the owner of the window, it will persist at least until remove_window() is called later.
If a null pointer is supplied for the gsg, then this routine will create a new gsg.
This routine is only called from the app thread.

void GraphicsEngine::open_windows | ( | ) |
Fully opens (or closes) any windows that have recently been requested open or closed, without rendering any frames.
It is not necessary to call this explicitly, since windows will be automatically opened or closed when the next frame is rendered, but you may call this if you want your windows now without seeing a frame go by.

void GraphicsEngine::ready_flip | ( | ) |
Waits for all the threads that started drawing their last frame to finish drawing.
Returns when all threads have actually finished drawing, as opposed to 'sync_frame' we seems to return once all draw calls have been submitted. Calling 'flip_frame' after this function should immediately cause a buffer flip. This function will only work in opengl right now, for all other graphics pipelines it will simply return immediately. In opengl it's a bit of a hack: it will attempt to read a single pixel from the frame buffer to force the graphics card to finish drawing before it returns

bool GraphicsEngine::remove_window | ( | GraphicsOutput * | window | ) |
Removes the indicated window or offscreen buffer from the set of windows that will be processed when render_frame() is called.
This also closes the window if it is open, and removes the window from its GraphicsPipe, allowing the window to be destructed if there are no other references to it. (However, the window may not be actually closed until next frame, if it is controlled by a sub-thread.)
The return value is true if the window was removed, false if it was not found.
Unlike remove_all_windows(), this function does not terminate any of the threads that may have been started to service this window; they are left running (since you might open a new window later on these threads). If your intention is to clean up before shutting down, it is better to call remove_all_windows() then to call remove_window() one at a time.

Set this flag true to indicate the GraphicsEngine should automatically cause windows to sync and flip as soon as they have finished drawing, rather than waiting for all of the windows to finish drawing first so they can flip together.
This only affects the timing of when the flip occurs. If this is true (the default), the flip occurs before render_frame() returns. If this is false, the flip occurs whenever flip_frame() is called, or at the beginning of the next call to render_frame(), if flip_frame() is never called.

void GraphicsEngine::texture_uploaded | ( | Texture * | tex | ) |
This method is called by the GraphicsStateGuardian after a texture has been successfully uploaded to graphics memory.
It is intended as a callback so the texture can release its RAM image, if _keep_ram_image is false.
Normally, this is not called directly except by the GraphicsStateGuardian. It will be called in the draw thread.
