MAV_texturedObjData(3)

NAME
MAV_texturedObjData - Textured object data.

LEVEL
Maverik Level 3

SYNTAX

 typedef struct {
  MAV_window *win;
  MAV_object *obj;
  MAV_callbackDrawFn fn;
  MAV_drawInfo di;
  MAV_drawInfo *dip;
  MAV_matrix mat;
} MAV_texturedObjData;

DESCRIPTION
On executing the draw callback for a textured object, the @mav_texturedObjectsManage function is called. This routine creates a MAV_texturedObjData data structure for the object which contains all the information necessary for it to be rendered at a later date: win is the window, obj is the object, fn the draw callback function, di the drawing information to use, dip a pointer to di or NULL if di is not defined, mat the state of the graphics matrix.

mav_texturedObjectsManage maintains a list of these data structures (which is reset at the start of each frame). @mav_texturedObjectsRender is called at the end of the frame to traverse this list rendering the objects. Potentially this minimizes the context changes made by the graphics pipe thus increasing performance.

This use of this feature is controlled by the option variable ^mav_opt_delayTexture and is initially disabled.
