Detailed Description

This class is a specific implementation of Loader<ParticleSystem>

This asset loader allows us to allocate particle systems from a JSON specification. The format of this json data is the same as that required by ParticleSystem#allocWithData.

Note that this implementation uses a two phase loading system. First, it loads as much of the asset as possible without using OpenGL. This allows us to load the model in a separate thread. It then finishes off the remainder of asset loading using Application#schedule. This is a good template for asset loaders in general.

As with all of our loaders, this loader is designed to be attached to an asset manager. Use the method getHook() to get the appropriate pointer for attaching the loader.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ ParticleLoader()

cugl::graphics::ParticleLoader::ParticleLoader ( )

inline

Creates a new, uninitialized particle system loader

NEVER USE A CONSTRUCTOR WITH NEW. If you want to allocate a loader on the heap, use one of the static constructors instead.

Member Function Documentation

◆ alloc() [1/2]

static std::shared_ptr< ParticleLoader > cugl::graphics::ParticleLoader::alloc ( )

inlinestatic

Returns a newly allocated particle system loader.

This method bootstraps the loader with any initial resources that it needs to load assets. In particular, the OpenGL context must be active. Attempts to load an asset before this method is called will fail.

This loader will have no associated threads. That means any asynchronous loading will fail until a thread is provided via setThreadPool.

Returns: a newly allocated particle system loader.

◆ alloc() [2/2]

static std::shared_ptr< ParticleLoader > cugl::graphics::ParticleLoader::alloc ( const std::shared_ptr< ThreadPool > & threads )

inlinestatic

Returns a newly allocated particle system loader.

This method bootstraps the loader with any initial resources that it needs to load assets. In particular, the OpenGL context must be active. Attempts to load an asset before this method is called will fail.

Parameters

threads The thread pool for asynchronous loading

Returns: a newly allocated particle system loader.

◆ dispose()

void cugl::graphics::ParticleLoader::dispose ( )

inlineoverridevirtual

Disposes all resources and assets of this loader

Once the loader is disposed, any attempts to load a new asset will fail. You must reinitialize the loader to begin loading assets again.

Reimplemented from cugl::BaseLoader.

◆ materialize()

bool cugl::graphics::ParticleLoader::materialize	(	const std::string	key,
		const std::shared_ptr< ParticleSystem > &	system,
		LoaderCallback	callback
	)

protected

Creates an OpenGL buffer for the particle system, and assigns it the given key.

This method finishes the asset loading started in preload. This step is not safe to be done in a separate thread. Instead, it takes place in the main CUGL thread via Application#schedule.

This method supports an optional callback function which reports whether the asset was successfully materialized.

Parameters

key	The key to access the asset after loading
system	The particle system to materialize
callback	An optional callback for asynchronous loading

Returns: true if materialization was successful

◆ preload() [1/2]

std::shared_ptr< ParticleSystem > cugl::graphics::ParticleLoader::preload ( const std::shared_ptr< JsonValue > & json )

protected

Loads the portion of this asset that is safe to load outside the main thread.

It is not safe to create an OpenGL buffer in a separate thread. However, it is safe to create a ParticleSystem, so long as it does not have a graphics buffer. Hence this method does the maximum amount of work that can be done in asynchronous particle loading.

Parameters

json	The JSON entry specifying the asset

Returns: the incomplete particle system

◆ preload() [2/2]

std::shared_ptr< ParticleSystem > cugl::graphics::ParticleLoader::preload	(	const std::string	key,
		const std::string	source
	)

protected

Loads the portion of this asset that is safe to load outside the main thread.

It is not safe to create an OpenGL buffer in a separate thread. However, it is safe to create a ParticleSystem, so long as it does not have a graphics buffer. Hence this method does the maximum amount of work that can be done in asynchronous particle loading.

Parameters

key	The key to access the asset after loading
source	The pathname to the asset

Returns: the incomplete particle system

◆ read() [1/2]

virtual bool cugl::graphics::ParticleLoader::read	(	const std::shared_ptr< JsonValue > &	json,
		LoaderCallback	callback,
		bool	async
	)

overrideprotectedvirtual

Internal method to support asset loading.

This method supports either synchronous or asynchronous loading, as specified by the given parameter. If the loading is asynchronous, the user may specify an optional callback function.

This method will split the loading across the preload and materialize methods. This ensures that asynchronous loading is safe.

This version of read provides support for JSON directories. A particle system directory entry is either an array or a JSON object (or the name of a file containing either of these), satisfying the specification of ParticleSystem#allocWithData.

Parameters

json	The directory entry for the asset
callback	An optional callback for asynchronous loading
async	Whether the asset was loaded asynchronously

Returns: true if the asset was successfully loaded

Reimplemented from cugl::BaseLoader.

◆ read() [2/2]

virtual bool cugl::graphics::ParticleLoader::read	(	const std::string	key,
		const std::string	source,
		LoaderCallback	callback,
		bool	async
	)

overrideprotectedvirtual

Internal method to support asset loading.

This method supports either synchronous or asynchronous loading, as specified by the given parameter. If the loading is asynchronous, the user may specify an optional callback function.

This method will split the loading across the preload and materialize methods. This ensures that asynchronous loading is safe.

A particle system is defined by a JSON file, whose contents satisfy the specification of ParticleSystem#allocWithData.

Parameters

key	The key to access the asset after loading
source	The pathname to the asset
callback	An optional callback for asynchronous loading
async	Whether the asset was loaded asynchronously

Returns: true if the asset was successfully loaded

Reimplemented from cugl::BaseLoader.
