Detailed Description

This is a collection of materials by MRef name.

It can extract the materials from an egg file and sort them all together; it can also manage the creation of unique materials and the assignment of unique MRef names.


Constructor & Destructor Documentation


Member Function Documentation

bool addMaterial ( EggMaterial  material)

Explicitly adds a new material to the collection.

Returns true if the material was added, false if it was already there or if there was some error.

clear ( )

Removes all materials from the collection.

int collapseEquivalentMaterials ( int  eq,
EggGroupNode  node 
)

Walks through the collection and collapses together any separate materials that are equivalent according to the indicated equivalence factor, eq (see EggMaterial::is_equivalent_to()).

The return value is the number of materials removed.

This flavor of collapse_equivalent_materials() automatically adjusts all the primitives in the egg hierarchy to refer to the new material pointers.

int collapseEquivalentMaterials ( int  eq,
mapPointerToEggMaterial  ,
PointerToEggMaterial  removed 
)

Walks through the collection and collapses together any separate materials that are equivalent according to the indicated equivalence factor, eq (see EggMaterial::is_equivalent_to()).

The return value is the number of materials removed.

This flavor of collapse_equivalent_materials() does not adjust any primitives in the egg hierarchy; instead, it fills up the 'removed' map with an entry for each removed material, mapping it back to the equivalent retained material. It's up to the user to then call replace_materials() with this map, if desired, to apply these changes to the egg hierarchy.

EggMaterial createUniqueMaterial ( EggMaterial const  copy,
int  eq 
)

Creates a new material if there is not already one equivalent (according to eq, see EggMaterial::is_equivalent_to()) to the indicated material, or returns the existing one if there is.

Walks the egg hierarchy beginning at the indicated node, and removes any EggMaterials encountered in the hierarchy, adding them to the collection.

Returns the number of EggMaterials encountered.

EggMaterial findMref ( string  mref_name)

Returns the material with the indicated MRef name, or NULL if no material matches.

int findUsedMaterials ( EggNode  node)

Walks the egg hierarchy beginning at the indicated node, looking for materials that are referenced by primitives but are not already members of the collection, adding them to the collection.

If this is called following extract_materials(), it can be used to pick up any additional material references that appeared in the egg hierarchy (but whose EggMaterial node was not actually part of the hierarchy).

If this is called in lieu of extract_materials(), it will fill up the collection with all of the referenced materials (and only the referenced materials), without destructively removing the EggMaterials from the hierarchy.

This also has the side effect of incrementing the internal usage count for a material in the collection each time a material reference is encountered. This side effect is taken advantage of by remove_unused_materials().

EggMaterialCollection operator= ( EggMaterialCollection const  copy)
bool removeMaterial ( EggMaterial  material)

Explicitly removes a material from the collection.

Returns true if the material was removed, false if it wasn't there or if there was some error.

Removes any materials from the collection that aren't referenced by any primitives in the indicated egg hierarchy.

This also, incidentally, adds materials to the collection that had been referenced by primitives but had not previously appeared in the collection.

static replaceMaterials ( EggGroupNode  node,
mapPointerToEggMaterial  ,
PointerToEggMaterial const  replace 
) [static]

Walks the egg hierarchy, changing out any reference to a material appearing on the left side of the map with its corresponding material on the right side.

This is most often done following a call to collapse_equivalent_materials(). It does not directly affect the Collection.

Sorts all the materials into alphabetical order by MRef name.

Subsequent operations using begin()/end() will traverse in this sorted order.

Guarantees that each material in the collection has a unique MRef name.

This is essential before writing an egg file.
