Detailed Description

An abstract base class for implementing particle placers.

A placer is an object which take a particle as input, and places it somewhere by setting its position vector. Placer objects are used by the ModularEmitter class as part of the particle emission process.

Member Function Documentation

virtual const char* osgParticle::Placer::className   const [inline, virtual]
 

return the name of the object's class type.

Must be defined by derived classes.

Implements osg::Object.

Reimplemented in osgParticle::CenteredPlacer.

virtual bool osgParticle::Placer::isSameKindAs const osg::Object   obj const [inline, virtual]
 

Reimplemented in osgParticle::CenteredPlacer.

virtual const char* osgParticle::Placer::libraryName   const [inline, virtual]
 

return the name of the object's library.

Must be defined by derived classes. The OpenSceneGraph convention the is that the namspace of a library is the same as the library name.

Implements osg::Object.

Reimplemented in osgParticle::CenteredPlacer.

Placer& osgParticle::Placer::operator= const Placer &    [inline, protected]
 

virtual void osgParticle::Placer::place Particle   P const [pure virtual]
 

Place a particle. Must be implemented in descendant classes.

Implemented in osgParticle::MultiSegmentPlacer, osgParticle::PointPlacer, osgParticle::SectorPlacer, and osgParticle::SegmentPlacer.
