Detailed Description

A compositor workspace is the main interface to render into an RT, be it a RenderWindow or an RTT (Render Texture Target).

Whereas Ogre 1.x needed you to set a Viewport in order to render to an RTT or RW and then call renderTarget->update, now you need to set a workspace definition instead and call workspace->_update().

: Compositors are not just a "fancy effects" system anymore, they tell Ogre how you want to render the scene. You can't render to an RT without setting a compositor!

: A workspace may be instantiated multiple times for different RTs, or using different cameras (i.e. multiple monitors, stereo 3D, etc), while they all will share the same definition. A workspace definition (see CompositorWorkspaceDef) contains all the information needed by this CompositorWorkspace to instantiate and know which nodes to create and how to connect them. (See CompositorNodeDef) A workspace may define global textures that are visible to all of its Node instances.

: If you want to have (e.g.) two monitors rendering the same but with different compositor effects, you will also have to create two different definitions (CompositorWorkspaceDefs)

: The intention of Ogre 2.0's compositor is to ideally have one Workspace per monitor (or per eye) while handling all RTTs inside that workspace with compositor nodes, local and global textures (including manually updated stuff like procedural textures, terrain's auto generated normal maps, etc); but it is also possible to do things the 1.x way: use additional Workspaces for manually rendering and controlling RTTs.

: Users with basic needs (no advanced effects) can see CompositorManager2::createBasicWorkspaceDef for quickly having a basic definition set for them.

: For more information about Compositors, consult the Ogre 2.0 Porting Manual in the Docs folder.

Member Function Documentation

◆ _beginUpdate()

void Ogre::CompositorWorkspace::_beginUpdate	(	bool	forceBeginFrame,
		const bool	bInsideAutoreleasePool = `false`
	)

Call before _update() unless the final render target is not a render window.

Parameters

forceBeginFrame Forces a beginFrame call to the D3D9 API, even if the final render target is not a RenderWindow (not recommended). To avoid forcing extra begin/end frame pairs, update your manual workspaces inside CompositorWorkspaceListener::workspacePreUpdate (performance optimization)

bInsideAutoreleasePool

If manually updating the workspace, leave this to default.

Relevant only in Metal: If we're not inside an autorelease pool, we automatically wrap the call into one. Otherwise we will leak

◆ _endUpdate()

void Ogre::CompositorWorkspace::_endUpdate	(	bool	forceEndFrame,
		const bool	bInsideAutoreleasePool = `false`
	)

Call after _update() unless the final render target is not a render window.

Parameters

forceEndFrame (See beginUpdate()) !!!WARNING!!! Forcing an end frame can cause API issues w/ D3D9 if Ogre had already issued a begin frame automatically (i.e. if you're calling from inside a RenderTarget or CompositorWorkspace listener). These API issues may not manifest on all HW/Driver combinations, making it hard to detect (if you're on D3D, use the Debug Runtimes)

bInsideAutoreleasePool

If manually updating the workspace, leave this to default.

Relevant only in Metal: If we're not inside an autorelease pool, we automatically wrap the call into one. Otherwise we will leak.

◆ _notifyBarriersDirty()

void Ogre::CompositorWorkspace::_notifyBarriersDirty ( )

◆ _swapFinalTarget()

void Ogre::CompositorWorkspace::_swapFinalTarget ( vector< TextureGpu * >::type & swappedTargets )

In the case of RenderWindows, swaps/copies/flips the front with the back buffer.

In the case of RenderTextures, resolves FSAA (unless it's tagged as explicit resolve, or its contents haven't changed since the last resolve)

Remarks: Call this after _endUpdate()

◆ _update()

void Ogre::CompositorWorkspace::_update ( const bool bInsideAutoreleasePool = false )

Updates the workspace's nodes.

Remarks: If you're calling this manually, it may be possible you first need to call RenderSystem::_beginFrameOnce if it wasn't called by OGRE already. You might also need to enclose the _update calls with _beginUpdate( true ) and _endUpdate( true ) if you're having issues.

Parameters

bInsideAutoreleasePool

If manually updating the workspace, leave this to default.

Relevant only in Metal: If we're not inside an autorelease pool, we automatically wrap the call into one. Otherwise we will leak

◆ _validateFinalTarget()

void Ogre::CompositorWorkspace::_validateFinalTarget ( )

For compatibility with D3D9, forces a device lost check on the RenderWindow, so that BeginScene doesn't fail.

◆ addListener()

void Ogre::CompositorWorkspace::addListener ( CompositorWorkspaceListener * listener )

◆ fillPassesUsingRenderWindows()

void Ogre::CompositorWorkspace::fillPassesUsingRenderWindows ( PassesByRenderWindowMap & passesUsingRenderWindows )

Fills the input map + vector with all the passes that use a window, classified per window.

Remarks: We do not support passes that write to more than one render window at once (this should not be supported by APIs anyway)

◆ findCamera()

Camera* Ogre::CompositorWorkspace::findCamera ( IdString cameraName ) const

Finds a camera in the scene manager we have.

◆ findNode()

CompositorNode* Ogre::CompositorWorkspace::findNode	(	IdString	aliasName,
		bool	includeShadowNodes = `false`
	)		const

Finds a node instance with the given aliased name.

Remarks: Linear search O(N)

Parameters

aliasName	Name of the node instance (they're unique)
includeShadowNodes	When true, also looks for ShadowNodes with that name, if the instance doesn't exists, it will not be created (default: false). (See findShadowNode()) When a Node has the same name of a Shadow Node, the Node takes precedence.

Returns: Regular version: Valid pointer. Throws exception if not found. NoThrow version: Null if not found. Valid pointer otherwise.

◆ findNodeNoThrow()

CompositorNode* Ogre::CompositorWorkspace::findNodeNoThrow	(	IdString	aliasName,
		bool	includeShadowNodes = `false`
	)		const

◆ findOrCreateShadowNode()

CompositorShadowNode* Ogre::CompositorWorkspace::findOrCreateShadowNode	(	IdString	nodeDefName,
		bool &	bCreated
	)

Finds a shadow node given its definition name.

If it doesn't exist, creates one. Note that unlike nodes, there can only be one ShadowNode instance per definition (in the same workspace)

Remarks: Performs a linear search O(N). There aren't many ShadowNodes active in a workspace to justify a better container (plus we mostly iterate through it).

: Throws if the shadow definition doesn't exist.

Parameters

nodeDefName	Name of the definition.
bCreated	[out] Set to true if we had to create a new shadow node (it didn't exist)

Returns: ShadowNode pointer

◆ findShadowNode()

CompositorShadowNode* Ogre::CompositorWorkspace::findShadowNode ( IdString nodeDefName ) const

Finds a shadow node instance with a given name.

Note that unlike nodes, there can only be one ShadowNode instance per definition (in the same workspace)

Remarks: Performs a linear search O(N). There aren't many ShadowNodes active in a workspace to justify a better container (plus we mostly iterate through it).

Parameters

nodeDefName Name of the definition.

Returns: ShadowNode pointer. Null if not found.

See also: CompositorNode::setEnabled)

◆ recreateAllNodes()

void Ogre::CompositorWorkspace::recreateAllNodes ( )

Destroys and recreates all nodes.

inline

When building with OGRE_PROFILING enabled, setting this option to true will cause the profiler to collapse all per-pass profiling information into one group.

This is useful if you want to know how much (e.g.) frustum culling is taking overall (all passes combined) rather than knowing how much frustum culling is taking for each pass.

Parameters

bEnabled True to collapse all per-pass info into a global one. Default is false.
