Member Function Documentation

virtual deBoolean IdeWorldObject::DeSerialize (  IdeFile *    File, long    DataLength )  [pure virtual]

De-Serialize the object from an open IdeFile - used by deWorld internally. Implemented in deBrush.

virtual deBoolean IdeWorldObject::DeSerializeLoad (    )  [pure virtual]

Call after all objects in a world have been loaded, to allow pointers to be correctly resolved from World and Object ID's Implemented in deWorldObject, deBrush, deMesh, deSceneRoom, deSceneObject, deSceneABT, deSceneTerrain, deSceneSky, deSceneStaticMesh, deSurface, and deRenderTexture.

virtual deObjectID IdeWorldObject::GetObjectID (    )  [pure virtual]

Retrieve the object's world-unique object ID. Implemented in deWorldObject.

virtual void* IdeWorldObject::GetPrivateData (  long &    pSize )  [pure virtual]

Retrieve the private data member for this object, along with its size in bytes. Implemented in deWorldObject.

virtual void* IdeWorldObject::GetWOInterface (  long    interface_id )  [pure virtual]

request a related interface, identified with an ID originally returned from IdeWorldManager::GetUniqueWOInterfaceID Implemented in deBrush, deMesh, deSceneRoom, deSceneObject, deSurface, deRenderState, and deBitmapProxy.

virtual deWorldID IdeWorldObject::GetWorldID (    )  [pure virtual]

Retrieve the object's runtime-unique World ID. Implemented in deWorldObject.

virtual const char* IdeWorldObject::GetWOTypeName (    )  [pure virtual]

retrieve the specific type name of the object

virtual deBoolean IdeWorldObject::Serialize (  IdeFile *    File )  [pure virtual]

Serialize the object into an open IdeFile - used by deWorld internally. Implemented in deBrush, and deSceneObject.

virtual deBoolean IdeWorldObject::SetPrivateData (  void *    pData, long    Size )  [pure virtual]

Set a private data member for this object, along with its size in bytes. This data is serialized, so don't store any pointer data. The data is copied into an internally-allocated area, so you can feed local variables in. Calling with 'pData = NULL' will cause it to destroy the data. Implemented in deWorldObject.

virtual deBoolean IdeWorldObject::SetWorldID (  deWorldID    WorldID, deObjectID    ObjectID = 0 )  [pure virtual]

Set the object's world ID to a specified World ID. Parameters: WorldID  0 or a valid ID for a currently loaded deWorld ObjectID  Reserved use - Use 0 (default) Implemented in deWorldObject.
