Detailed Description

Base definition of a hardware buffer manager.

Remarks: This class is deliberately not a Singleton, so that multiple types can exist at once. The Singleton is wrapped via the Decorator pattern in HardwareBufferManager, below. Each concrete implementation should provide a subclass of HardwareBufferManagerBase, which does the actual work, and also a very simple subclass of HardwareBufferManager which simply constructs the instance of the HardwareBufferManagerBase subclass and passes it to the HardwareBufferManager superclass as a delegate. This subclass must also delete the implementation instance it creates.

◆ _forceReleaseBufferCopies() [1/2]

virtual void Ogre::v1::HardwareBufferManagerBase::_forceReleaseBufferCopies ( const HardwareVertexBufferSharedPtr & sourceBuffer )

virtual

Internal method that forces the release of copies of a given buffer.

Remarks: This usually means that the buffer which the copies are based on has been changed in some fundamental way, and the owner of the original wishes to make that known so that new copies will reflect the changes.

Parameters

sourceBuffer The source buffer as a shared pointer. Any buffer copies created from the source buffer are deleted.

Reimplemented in Ogre::v1::HardwareBufferManager.

◆ _forceReleaseBufferCopies() [2/2]

virtual void Ogre::v1::HardwareBufferManagerBase::_forceReleaseBufferCopies ( HardwareVertexBuffer * sourceBuffer )

virtual

Internal method that forces the release of copies of a given buffer.

Remarks: This usually means that the buffer which the copies are based on has been changed in some fundamental way, and the owner of the original wishes to make that known so that new copies will reflect the changes.

Parameters

sourceBuffer The source buffer as a pointer. Any buffer copies created from the source buffer are deleted.

Reimplemented in Ogre::v1::HardwareBufferManager.

◆ _freeUnusedBufferCopies()

virtual void Ogre::v1::HardwareBufferManagerBase::_freeUnusedBufferCopies ( void )

virtual

Free all unused vertex buffer copies.

Remarks: This method free all temporary vertex buffers that not in used. In normally, temporary vertex buffers are subsequently stored and can be made available for other purposes later without incurring the cost of construction / destruction. But in some cases you want to free them to save hardware memory (e.g. application was runs in a long time, you might free temporary buffers periodically to avoid memory overload).

		BufferLicenseType	licenseType,

	)

virtual

Allocates a copy of a given vertex buffer.

Remarks: This method allocates a temporary copy of an existing vertex buffer. This buffer is subsequently stored and can be made available for other purposes later without incurring the cost of construction / destruction.

Parameters

sourceBuffer	The source buffer to use as a copy.
licenseType	The type of license required on this buffer - automatic release causes this class to release licenses every frame so that they can be reallocated anew.
licensee	Pointer back to the class requesting the copy, which must implement HardwareBufferLicense in order to be notified when the license expires.
copyData	If `true`, the current data is copied as well as the structure of the buffer/

		const String &	name = `""`
	)

		size_t	numIndexes,
		HardwareBuffer::Usage	usage,
		bool	useShadowBuffer = `false`
	)

pure virtual

Create a hardware index buffer.

Remarks: Note that because buffers can be shared, they are reference counted so you do not need to worry about destroying them this will be done automatically.

Parameters

itype	The type in index, either 16- or 32-bit, depending on how many vertices you need to be able to address
numIndexes	The number of indexes in the buffer
usage	One or more members of the HardwareBuffer::Usage enumeration.
useShadowBuffer	If set to `true`, this buffer will be 'shadowed' by one stored in system memory rather than GPU or AGP memory. You should set this flag if you intend to read data back from the index buffer, because reading data from a buffer in the GPU or AGP memory is very expensive, and is in fact impossible if you specify HBU_WRITE_ONLY for the main buffer. If you use this option, all reads and writes will be done to the shadow buffer, and the shadow buffer will be synchronised with the real buffer at an appropriate time.

		HardwareBuffer::Usage	usage = `HardwareBuffer::HBU_DYNAMIC_WRITE_ONLY_DISCARDABLE`,
		bool	useShadowBuffer = `false`,
		const String &	name = `""`
	)

pure virtual

Create uniform buffer.

This type of buffer allows the upload of shader constants once, and sharing between shader stages or even shaders from another materials. The update shall be triggered by GpuProgramParameters, if is dirty

◆ createVertexBuffer()

virtual HardwareVertexBufferSharedPtr Ogre::v1::HardwareBufferManagerBase::createVertexBuffer	(	size_t	vertexSize,
		size_t	numVerts,
		HardwareBuffer::Usage	usage,
		bool	useShadowBuffer = `false`
	)

pure virtual

Create a hardware vertex buffer.

Remarks: This method creates a new vertex buffer; this will act as a source of geometry data for rendering objects. Note that because the meaning of the contents of the vertex buffer depends on the usage, this method does not specify a vertex format; the user of this buffer can actually insert whatever data they wish, in any format. However, in order to use this with a RenderOperation, the data in this vertex buffer will have to be associated with a semantic element of the rendering pipeline, e.g. a position, or texture coordinates. This is done using the VertexDeclaration class, which itself contains VertexElement structures referring to the source data.; Note that because vertex buffers can be shared, they are reference counted so you do not need to worry about destroying themm this will be done automatically.

Parameters

vertexSize	The size in bytes of each vertex in this buffer; you must calculate this based on the kind of data you expect to populate this buffer with.
numVerts	The number of vertices in this buffer.
usage	One or more members of the HardwareBuffer::Usage enumeration; you are strongly advised to use HBU_STATIC_WRITE_ONLY wherever possible, if you need to update regularly, consider HBU_DYNAMIC_WRITE_ONLY and useShadowBuffer=true.
useShadowBuffer	If set to `true`, this buffer will be 'shadowed' by one stored in system memory rather than GPU or AGP memory. You should set this flag if you intend to read data back from the vertex buffer, because reading data from a buffer in the GPU or AGP memory is very expensive, and is in fact impossible if you specify HBU_WRITE_ONLY for the main buffer. If you use this option, all reads and writes will be done to the shadow buffer, and the shadow buffer will be synchronised with the real buffer at an appropriate time.

Registers a vertex buffer as a copy of another.

Manually release a vertex buffer copy for others to subsequently use.

Remarks: Only required if the original call to allocateVertexBufferCopy included a licenseType of BLT_MANUAL_RELEASE.

Parameters

bufferCopy The buffer copy. The caller is expected to delete or at least no longer use this reference, since another user may well begin to modify the contents of the buffer.

Remarks: Ogre internal keep an expired delay counter of BLT_AUTOMATIC_RELEASE buffers, when the counter count down to zero, it'll release for other purposes later. But you can use this function to reset the counter to the internal configured value, keep the buffer not get released for some frames.

Parameters

bufferCopy The buffer copy. The caller is expected to keep this buffer copy for use.
