Detailed Description

See also

Class Mtl, Class RenderInstance.

Description:

This class provides interface methods used to support indirect material referencing and enhanced face / material associations. Generally, these methods will need to be implemented by the plug-in using them and cannot be called from a standard library, since the information required is intimately associated with the geometry of the object.

All methods of this class are virtual.

Member Function Documentation

SupportsParticleIDbyFace()

virtual BOOL SupportsParticleIDbyFace ( )

inlinevirtual

Remarks

Returns TRUE if the object can associate a particle number with a face number, and FALSE if not.

Default Implementation:

{ return FALSE; }

{ return FALSE; }

GetParticleFromFace()

virtual int GetParticleFromFace ( int  faceID )

inlinevirtual

Remarks

Returns the particle to which the face identified by faceID belongs.

Parameters:

int faceID

The ID of the face.

Default Implementation:

{ return 0; }

{ return 0; }

SupportsIndirMtlRefs()

virtual BOOL SupportsIndirMtlRefs ( )

inlinevirtual

Remarks

Returns TRUE if the object can return a material pointer given a face being rendered, and FALSE if the object will be associated for that render pass with only the material applied to the node.

Default Implementation:

{ return FALSE; }

{ return FALSE; }

NumberOfMtlsUsed()

virtual int NumberOfMtlsUsed ( )

inlinevirtual

Remarks

Returns the number of different materials used on the object. This number is used in enumerating the different materials via the methods GetNthMtl() and GetNthMaxMtlID() below.

Default Implementation:

{ return 0; }

the following methods are meaningful.

{ return 0; }

GetNthMtl()

virtual Mtl * GetNthMtl ( int  n )

inlinevirtual

Remarks

If the method SupportsIndirMtlRefs() above returns TRUE then this method returns the different materials used on the object.

Parameters:

int n

The zero based index of the material used on the object.

Returns

Default Implementation:

{ return NULL; }

{ return NULL; }

GetNthMaxMtlID()

virtual int GetNthMaxMtlID ( int  n )

inlinevirtual

Remarks

If the method SupportsIndirMtlRefs() above returns TRUE then this method returns the maximum material ID number used with the specified material on the object

Parameters:

int n

The zero based index of the material.

Default Implementation:

{ return 0; }

{ return 0; }

GetMaterialFromFace()

virtual Mtl * GetMaterialFromFace ( int  faceID )

inlinevirtual

Remarks

If the method SupportsIndirMtlRefs() above returns TRUE then this method returns a pointer to the material associated with the face identified by faceID.

Parameters:

int faceID

The ID of the face to check.

Default Implementation:

{ return NULL; }

{ return NULL; }
