ShadowManager Class Reference

activate()

Called when the shadow manager should become active. It will assign the class variable "SceneGraph* mSceneManager" to the global "SceneGraph* gClientSceneGraph" variable. Syntax activate() Returns No return value. Examples // Called from within the AdvancedLightManager::activate, SHADOWMGR is a #define // of the ShadowMapManager::instance() function. SHADOWMGR->activate();

deactivate()

Called when we don't want the shadow manager active (should clean up). As this is basically just a base class, this function does nothing and should be overridden by the super class to clean clean up its own data. Syntax deactivate() Returns No return value. Examples // Called from within the AdvancedLightManager::deactivate, SHADOWMGR is a #define // of the ShadowMapManager::instance() function. SHADOWMGR->deactivate();

canActivate()

Called to find out if it is valid to activate this shadow system. Currently this function will always return true. Syntax canActivate() Returns bool: Will always return true. Examples Currently this function is not called in the base and is left up to the user to implement.
