Detailed Description

An adapter between a vtkPainter and a rendering device.

This class is an adapter between a vtkPainter and a rendering device (such as an OpenGL machine). Having an abstract adapter allows vtkPainters to be re-used for any rendering system.

Although VTK really only uses OpenGL right now, there are reasons to swap out the rendering functions. Sometimes MESA with mangled names is used. Also, different shader extensions use different functions. Furthermore, Cg also has its own interface.

The interface for this class should be familier to anyone experienced with OpenGL.

Reimplemented from vtkObject.

Reimplemented in vtkMesaPainterDeviceAdapter, and vtkOpenGLPainterDeviceAdapter.

virtual void vtkPainterDeviceAdapter::BeginPrimitive ( int  mode  )  [pure virtual]

Signals the start of sending a primitive to the graphics card. The mode is one of VTK_VERTEX, VTK_POLY_VERTEX, VTK_LINE, VTK_POLY_LINE, VTK_TRIANGLE, VTK_TRIANGLE_STRIP, VTK_POLYGON, or VTK_QUAD. The primitive is defined by the attributes sent between the calls to BeginPrimitive and EndPrimitive. You do not need to call EndPrimitive/BeginPrimitive between primitives that have a constant number of points (i.e. VTK_VERTEX, VTK_LINE, VTK_TRIANGLE, and VTK_QUAD).

Implemented in vtkMesaPainterDeviceAdapter, and vtkOpenGLPainterDeviceAdapter.

virtual void vtkPainterDeviceAdapter::EndPrimitive (  )  [pure virtual]

Signals the end of sending a primitive to the graphics card.

Implemented in vtkMesaPainterDeviceAdapter, and vtkOpenGLPainterDeviceAdapter.

virtual int vtkPainterDeviceAdapter::IsAttributesSupported ( int  attribute  )  [pure virtual]

Returns if the given attribute type is supported by the device. Returns 1 is supported, 0 otherwise.

Implemented in vtkOpenGLPainterDeviceAdapter.

virtual void vtkPainterDeviceAdapter::SendMultiTextureCoords ( int  numcomp,
int  type,
const void *  attribute,
int  idx,
vtkIdType  offset 
) [pure virtual]

Calls glMultiTex

Implemented in vtkOpenGLPainterDeviceAdapter.

virtual void vtkPainterDeviceAdapter::SendAttribute ( int  index,
int  components,
int  type,
const void *  attribute,
vtkIdType  offset = 0 
) [pure virtual]

Sends a single attribute to the graphics card. The index parameter identifies the attribute. Some indices have special meaning (see vtkPainter for details). The components parameter gives the number of components in the attribute. In general, components must be between 1-4, but a rendering system may impose even more constraints. The type parameter is a VTK type enumeration (VTK_FLOAT, VTK_INT, etc.). Again, a rendering system may not support all types for all attributes. The attribute parameter is the actual data for the attribute. If offset is specified, it is added to attribute pointer after it has been casted to the proper type.

Implemented in vtkOpenGLPainterDeviceAdapter.

void vtkPainterDeviceAdapter::SetAttributePointer ( int  index,
vtkDataArray attributeArray 
) [inline]

Sets an array of attributes. This allows you to send all the data for a particular attribute with one call, thus greatly reducing function call overhead. Once set, the array is enabled with EnableAttributeArray, and the data is sent with a call to DrawArrays DrawElements.

Definition at line 197 of file vtkPainterDeviceAdapter.h.

virtual void vtkPainterDeviceAdapter::SetAttributePointer ( int  index,
int  numcomponents,
int  type,
int  stride,
const void *  pointer 
) [pure virtual]

Sets an array of attributes. This allows you to send all the data for a particular attribute with one call, thus greatly reducing function call overhead. Once set, the array is enabled with EnableAttributeArray, and the data is sent with a call to DrawArrays DrawElements.

  • index the index of the attribute.
  • numcomponents the number of components in each attribute entry.
  • type the data type (VTK_FLOAT, VTK_UNSIGNED_CHAR, etc.).
  • stride the byte offset between entries in the array (0 for tightly packed).
  • pointer the array holding the data.

Implemented in vtkMesaPainterDeviceAdapter, and vtkOpenGLPainterDeviceAdapter.

virtual void vtkPainterDeviceAdapter::EnableAttributeArray ( int  index  )  [pure virtual]

Enable/disable the attribute array set with SetAttributePointer.

Implemented in vtkMesaPainterDeviceAdapter, and vtkOpenGLPainterDeviceAdapter.

virtual void vtkPainterDeviceAdapter::DisableAttributeArray ( int  index  )  [pure virtual]

Enable/disable the attribute array set with SetAttributePointer.

Implemented in vtkMesaPainterDeviceAdapter, and vtkOpenGLPainterDeviceAdapter.

virtual void vtkPainterDeviceAdapter::DrawArrays ( int  mode,
vtkIdType  first,
vtkIdType  count 
) [pure virtual]

Send a section of the enabled attribute pointers to the graphics card to define a primitive. The mode is one of VTK_VERTEX, VTK_POLY_VERTEX, VTK_LINE, VTK_POLY_LINE, VTK_TRIANGLE, VTK_TRIANGLE_STRIP, VTK_POLYGON, or VTK_QUAD. It identifies which type of primitive the attribute data is defining. The parameters first and count identify what part of the attribute arrays define the given primitive. If mode is a primitive that has a constant number of points (i.e. VTK_VERTEX, VTK_LINE, VTK_TRIANGLE, and VTK_QUAD), you may draw multiple primitives with one call to DrawArrays.

Implemented in vtkMesaPainterDeviceAdapter, and vtkOpenGLPainterDeviceAdapter.

virtual void vtkPainterDeviceAdapter::DrawElements ( int  mode,
vtkIdType  count,
int  type,
void *  indices 
) [pure virtual]

Send items in the attribute pointers to the graphics card to define a primitive. The mode is one of VTK_VERTEX, VTK_POLY_VERTEX, VTK_LINE, VTK_POLY_LINE, VTK_TRIANGLE, VTK_TRIANGLE_STRIP, VTK_POLYGON, or VTK_QUAD. It identifies which type of primitive the attribute data is defining. The indices array holds the list of attribute elements that define the primitive. The count and type parameters give the number and data type of the indices array. The type parameter is a VTK type enumeration (VTK_UNSIGNED_INT, ...). The type should be an integer type (for obvious reasons). If mode is a primitive that has a constant number of points (i.e. VTK_VERTEX, VTK_LINE, VTK_TRIANGLE, and VTK_QUAD), you may draw multiple primitives with one call to DrawArrays.

Implemented in vtkMesaPainterDeviceAdapter, and vtkOpenGLPainterDeviceAdapter.
