Detailed Description

Manages the target rendering window.

Remarks:: This class handles a window into which the contents of a scene are rendered. There is a many-to-1 relationship between instances of this class an instance of RenderSystem which controls the rendering of the scene. There may be more than one window in the case of level editor tools etc. This class is abstract since there may be different implementations for different windowing systems.; Instances are created and communicated with by the render system although client programs can get a reference to it from the render system if required for resizing or moving. Note that you can have multiple viewpoints in the window for effects like rear-view mirrors and picture-in-picture views (see Viewport and Camera).

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

Ogre::RenderWindow::RenderWindow ( )

Default constructor.

Member Function Documentation

virtual void Ogre::RenderTarget::_beginUpdate ( ) [virtual, inherited]

Method for manual management of rendering : fires 'preRenderTargetUpdate' and initialises statistics etc.

Remarks:

_beginUpdate resets statistics and fires 'preRenderTargetUpdate'.
_updateViewport renders the given viewport (even if it is not autoupdated), fires preViewportUpdate and postViewportUpdate and manages statistics.
_updateAutoUpdatedViewports renders only viewports that are auto updated, fires preViewportUpdate and postViewportUpdate and manages statistics.
_endUpdate() ends statistics calculation and fires postRenderTargetUpdate.

you can use it like this for example :

			renderTarget->_beginUpdate();
			renderTarget->_updateViewport(1); // which is not auto updated
			renderTarget->_updateViewport(2); // which is not auto updated
			renderTarget->_updateAutoUpdatedViewports();
			renderTarget->_endUpdate();
			renderTarget->swapBuffers(true);

Please note that in that case, the zorder may not work as you expect, since you are responsible for calling _updateViewport in the correct order.

virtual void Ogre::RenderTarget::_detachDepthBuffer ( ) [virtual, inherited]

Detaches DepthBuffer without notifying it from the detach.

Useful when called from the DepthBuffer while it iterates through attached RenderTargets (

See also:: DepthBuffer::_setPoolId())

virtual void Ogre::RenderTarget::_endUpdate ( ) [virtual, inherited]

Method for manual management of rendering - finishes statistics calculation and fires 'postRenderTargetUpdate'.

Remarks:: You should call it after a _beginUpdate

See also:: _beginUpdate for more details.

virtual Impl* Ogre::RenderTarget::_getImpl ( ) [virtual, inherited]

Get rendersystem specific interface for this RenderTarget.

This is used by the RenderSystem to (un)bind this target, and to get specific information like surfaces and framebuffer objects.

virtual void Ogre::RenderTarget::_notifyCameraRemoved ( const Camera * cam ) [virtual, inherited]

Utility method to notify a render target that a camera has been removed, incase it was referring to it as a viewer.

void Ogre::RenderWindow::_setPrimary ( ) [protected]

Indicates that this is the primary window.

Only to be called by Ogre::Root

Definition at line 217 of file OgreRenderWindow.h.

virtual void Ogre::RenderTarget::_updateAutoUpdatedViewports ( bool updateStatistics = true ) [virtual, inherited]

Method for manual management of rendering - renders only viewports that are auto updated.

Remarks:: This also fires preViewportUpdate and postViewportUpdate, and manages statistics. You should call it between _beginUpdate() and _endUpdate(). See _beginUpdate for more details.

Parameters:

updateStatistics

Whether you want to update statistics or not.

See also:: _beginUpdate()

virtual void Ogre::RenderTarget::_updateViewport	(	Viewport *	viewport,
		bool	updateStatistics = `true`
	)			`[virtual, inherited]`

Method for manual management of rendering - renders the given viewport (even if it is not autoupdated).

Remarks:: This also fires preViewportUpdate and postViewportUpdate, and manages statistics if needed. You should call it between _beginUpdate() and _endUpdate().

See also:: _beginUpdate for more details.

Parameters:

	viewport	The viewport you want to update, it must be bound to the rendertarget.
	updateStatistics	Whether you want to update statistics or not.

virtual void Ogre::RenderTarget::_updateViewport	(	int	zorder,
		bool	updateStatistics = `true`
	)			`[virtual, inherited]`

Method for manual management of rendering - renders the given viewport (even if it is not autoupdated).

Remarks:: This also fires preViewportUpdate and postViewportUpdate, and manages statistics. You should call it between _beginUpdate() and _endUpdate().

See also:: _beginUpdate for more details.

Parameters:

	zorder	The zorder of the viewport to update.
	updateStatistics	Whether you want to update statistics or not.

virtual void Ogre::RenderTarget::addListener ( RenderTargetListener * listener ) [virtual, inherited]

Add a listener to this RenderTarget which will be called back before & after rendering.

Remarks:: If you want notifications before and after a target is updated by the system, use this method to register your own custom RenderTargetListener class. This is useful for potentially adding your own manual rendering commands before and after the 'normal' system rendering.

NB this should not be used for frame-based scene updates, use Root::addFrameListener for that.

virtual Viewport* Ogre::RenderTarget::addViewport	(	Camera *	cam,
		int	ZOrder = `0`,
		float	left = `0.0f`,
		float	top = `0.0f`,
		float	width = `1.0f`,
		float	height = `1.0f`
	)			`[virtual, inherited]`

Adds a viewport to the rendering target.

Remarks:: A viewport is the rectangle into which rendering output is sent. This method adds a viewport to the render target, rendering from the supplied camera. The rest of the parameters are only required if you wish to add more than one viewport to a single rendering target. Note that size information passed to this method is passed as a parametric, i.e. it is relative rather than absolute. This is to allow viewports to automatically resize along with the target.

Parameters:

	cam	The camera from which the viewport contents will be rendered (mandatory)
	ZOrder	The relative order of the viewport with others on the target (allows overlapping viewports i.e. picture-in-picture). Higher ZOrders are on top of lower ones. The actual number is irrelevant, only the relative ZOrder matters (you can leave gaps in the numbering)
	left	The relative position of the left of the viewport on the target, as a value between 0 and 1.
	top	The relative position of the top of the viewport on the target, as a value between 0 and 1.
	width	The relative width of the viewport on the target, as a value between 0 and 1.
	height	The relative height of the viewport on the target, as a value between 0 and 1.

virtual bool Ogre::RenderTarget::attachDepthBuffer ( DepthBuffer * depthBuffer ) [virtual, inherited]

virtual void Ogre::RenderTarget::copyContentsToMemory	(	const PixelBox &	dst,
		FrameBuffer	buffer = `FB_AUTO`
	)			`[pure virtual, inherited]`

Copies the current contents of the render target to a pixelbox.

Remarks:: See suggestPixelFormat for a tip as to the best pixel format to extract into, although you can use whatever format you like and the results will be converted.

Implemented in Ogre::RenderTexture, and Ogre::MultiRenderTarget.

virtual void Ogre::RenderWindow::create	(	const String &	name,
		unsigned int	width,
		unsigned int	height,
		bool	fullScreen,
		const NameValuePairList *	miscParams
	)			`[pure virtual]`

Creates & displays the new window.

Parameters:

	width	The width of the window in pixels.
	height	The height of the window in pixels.
	colourDepth	The colour depth in bits. Ignored if fullScreen is false since the desktop depth is used.
	fullScreen	If true, the window fills the screen, with no title bar or border.
	left	The x-position of the window. Ignored if fullScreen = true.
	top	The y-position of the window. Ignored if fullScreen = true.
	depthBuffer	Specify true to include a depth-buffer.
	miscParam	A variable number of pointers to platform-specific arguments. The actual requirements must be defined by the implementing subclasses.

virtual void Ogre::RenderWindow::destroy ( void ) [pure virtual]

Destroys the window.
