#include <featureunit.h>

Detailed Description

A FeatureUnit is an encapsulated feature which can be added to an application.

E.g. game features can be core features like Render or Network, or it can be some of the addons like db or physics.

To add a new feature, derive from this class and add it to the Game::GameServer on application or statehandler startup.

The Game::GameServer will start, load, save, trigger and close your feature.

Member Function Documentation

◆ AttachManager()

void Game::FeatureUnit::AttachManager ( Ptr< Manager > manager )

privatevirtual

attach a manager to the feature unit

Attach a manager to the game world.

The manager's OnActivate() method will be called once right away, and then its OnFrame() method once per frame.

◆ GetCmdLineArgs()

const Util::CommandLineArgs & Game::FeatureUnit::GetCmdLineArgs ( ) const

inlineprivate

get command line args

◆ IsActive()

bool Game::FeatureUnit::IsActive ( ) const

inlineprivate

return true if featureunit is currently active

◆ OnActivate()

void Game::FeatureUnit::OnActivate ( )

privatevirtual

called after GameServer::AttachGameFeature()

This method is called by Game::GameServer::AttachGameFeature().

Use this method for one-time initializations of the FeatureUnit.

Reimplemented in AudioFeature::AudioFeatureUnit, BaseGameFeature::BaseGameFeatureUnit, GraphicsFeature::GraphicsFeatureUnit, PhysicsFeature::PhysicsFeatureUnit, and Scripting::ScriptFeatureUnit.

◆ OnAttach()

void Game::FeatureUnit::OnAttach ( )

privatevirtual

called from GameServer::AttachGameFeature()

called from within GameServer::NotifyBeforeLoad()

◆ OnBeforeViews()

void Game::FeatureUnit::OnBeforeViews ( )

privatevirtual

Called between beginning of frame and before the views are iterated.

This method is called from Game::GameServer::OnBeforeViews() on all game features attached to an GameServer in the order of attachment.

Override this method if your FeatureUnit has to do any work at the beginning of the frame.
