Detailed Description

Abstract class defining the interface to be implemented by creators of ParticleAffector subclasses.

Remarks: Plugins or 3rd party applications can add new types of particle affectors to Ogre by creating subclasses of the ParticleAffector class. Because multiple instances of these affectors may be required, a factory class to manage the instances is also required.

: ParticleAffectorFactory subclasses must allow the creation and destruction of ParticleAffector subclasses. They must also be registered with the ParticleSystemManager. All factories have a name which identifies them, examples might be 'force_vector', 'attractor', or 'fader', and these can be also be used from particle system scripts.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

Ogre::ParticleAffectorFactory::ParticleAffectorFactory ( )

inline

virtual Ogre::ParticleAffectorFactory::~ParticleAffectorFactory ( )

virtual

virtual String Ogre::ParticleAffectorFactory::getName ( ) const

pure virtual

Returns the name of the factory, the name which identifies the particle affector type this factory creates.

virtual ParticleAffector* Ogre::ParticleAffectorFactory::createAffector ( ParticleSystem * psys )

pure virtual

Creates a new affector instance.

Remarks: The subclass MUST add a pointer to the created instance to mAffectors.

virtual void Ogre::ParticleAffectorFactory::destroyAffector ( ParticleAffector * e )

virtual

Destroys the affector pointed to by the parameter (for early clean up if required).
