Detailed Description

a superclass for prop cullers.

Date:
2000/12/10 20:08:33
Revision:
1.9

A culler has a cull method called by the vtkRenderer. The cull method is called before any rendering is performed, and it allows the culler to do some processing on the props and to modify their AllocatedRenderTime and re-order them in the prop list.

Member Function Documentation

virtual float vtkCuller::Cull vtkRenderer   ren,
vtkProp **    propList,
int &    listLength,
int &    initialized
[pure virtual]
 

This is called outside the render loop by vtkRenderer

Implemented in vtkFrustumCoverageCuller.

virtual const char* vtkCuller::GetClassName   [virtual]
 

Return the class name as a string. This method is defined in all subclasses of vtkObject with the vtkTypeMacro found in vtkSetGet.h.

Reimplemented from vtkObject.

Reimplemented in vtkFrustumCoverageCuller.

virtual int vtkCuller::IsA const char *    type [virtual]
 

Return 1 if this class is the same type of (or a subclass of) the named class. Returns 0 otherwise. This method works in combination with vtkTypeMacro found in vtkSetGet.h.

Reimplemented from vtkObject.

Reimplemented in vtkFrustumCoverageCuller.

int vtkCuller::IsTypeOf const char *    type [static]
 

Return 1 if this class type is the same type of (or a subclass of) the named class. Returns 0 otherwise. This method works in combination with vtkTypeMacro found in vtkSetGet.h.

Reimplemented from vtkObject.

Reimplemented in vtkFrustumCoverageCuller.

vtkCuller* vtkCuller::SafeDownCast vtkObject   o [static]
 

Will cast the supplied object to vtkObject* is this is a safe operation (i.e., a safe downcast); otherwise NULL is returned. This method is defined in all subclasses of vtkObject with the vtkTypeMacro found in vtkSetGet.h.

Reimplemented from vtkObject.

Reimplemented in vtkFrustumCoverageCuller.
